If your order is eligible for a refund, you must return the products to us within 14 days of contacting us that you have changed your mind.

If you return products, you should keep a receipt or other proof from the delivery service that shows you sent it and when. If you do not do this and we do not receive the return within a reasonable time, we will not refund the purchase price. Please contact us if you require any additional assistance with returns, including arrangements for products that cannot be posted.

4.4. We can reduce your refund if you have used or damaged products

If you handle your order in a way which would not be acceptable in-store, we will reduce your refund to compensate for the reduced value. For example, if the packaging is damaged. In some cases, there may be no refund due.

4.5. When and how we refund you

If your order was not delivered, we will refund you as soon as possible and within 14 days of you informing us that you have changed your mind.

4.9. You can only transfer your contract with us to another party if we agree to this

This will not be possible with a Custom Formula.

5.1. Share feedback to help us improve

If you are dissatisfied with Monderma’s website or products, please provide feedback so that we can improve. We do everything we can to ensure that our customers receive the best products and service available. However, we do not always get it right the first time. When this happens, we want you to tell us what went wrong so that we can put things right. Please contact us to share your valuable feedback.

5.2. How to make a complaint

We want to make it easy for you to tell us what went wrong, give your complaint the attention it deserves, resolve your complaint fairly and promptly, and ensure your satisfaction with how your complaint was resolved. Please contact us to make a complaint.

5.3. We aim to resolve complaints straight away

We typically respond to complaints within a few business hours and, in most cases, resolve them. For more complex cases, this may take longer, and we will contact you if we need an additional 3-5 working days to investigate your complaint. This will explain why we have not resolved your complaint, who is handling it, and when we will contact you again. We will make every effort to resolve your complaint as soon as possible; however, if you require an update, you can contact us and ask to speak with the person who is handling your complaint.

5.4. If we cannot reach an agreement with you

If your complaint exceeds the usual timeframe for resolving complaints, we will send you a final decision letter within 8 weeks which will explain our final position.

6.1. You have options to resolve questions or disputes with us

Please contact us in the first instance, and we will do our best to resolve any issues you may have with us or our products, as outlined in Feedback and Complaints. If you are still dissatisfied with the outcome, you can use an optional process called an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). These Terms and Conditions are governed by English law and you may bring a claim against us in the English courts regardless of where you live. If you live in Wales, Scotland, or Northern Ireland, you may also bring a claim against us in those country’s courts. We may bring a claim against you in the courts of the country where you live.
