At Stixmavel, we take great pride in the quality of our organic beauty products and the satisfaction of our customers. While we strive to ensure that every product you purchase meets your expectations, we understand that there may be occasions when you need to return an item or request a refund.
This Refund and Returns Policy outlines your rights and responsibilities when seeking a return or refund, and provides clear guidelines on how we process such requests.
1. Eligibility for Returns
We accept returns for most unused, unopened, and undamaged items within 30 days of the original delivery date. To be eligible for a return:
The item must be in its original packaging, sealed, and unused.
You must provide a valid proof of purchase (order number, receipt, or confirmation email).
The return must be requested within 30 calendar days from the delivery date.
Due to hygiene and safety concerns, used, opened, or tampered cosmetics are not eligible for return unless they are defective or damaged upon arrival.
2. Non-Returnable Items
For health, hygiene, and safety reasons, the following items are non-returnable:
Any product that has been opened, used, or partially consumed
Final sale items and clearance products
Gift cards and digital vouchers
Items purchased as part of a bundle, unless the entire bundle is returned
Personalized or custom items
Free promotional items
If you return a product that is deemed ineligible, we will notify you and return it to the original shipping address at your expense.
3. Requesting a Return or Refund
To begin a return or refund request, please contact our support team at:
📧 Email: info@stixmavel.com
📞 Phone: +44 1273 982 614
📆 Business Hours: Monday – Friday, 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM (GMT)
Please include the following information:
Your full name
Order number
Item(s) you wish to return
Reason for the return
Photos if the item is damaged or defective
Our team will review your request within 2–3 business days and provide instructions for returning your item(s), including return address and shipping recommendations.
4. Return Shipping Costs
Unless the return is due to a damaged, defective, or incorrect item, customers are responsible for paying the return shipping costs. We recommend using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance, as we cannot guarantee that we will receive your returned item.
We do not refund original shipping fees unless the return is due to an error on our part.
5. Damaged or Defective Items
If you receive an item that is:
Visibly damaged upon delivery
Defective or malfunctioning upon first use
Incorrect (e.g., wrong product or variant shipped)
Please contact us within 48 hours of receiving the package. Provide clear photos of:
The damaged or defective item
The packaging it arrived in
The shipping label
We will investigate the issue and, if approved, offer one of the following resolutions:
A replacement item at no additional cost
A full refund, including shipping fees
A store credit equal to the original purchase amount
6. Refund Processing
Once your returned item is received and inspected, we will notify you by email that your return has been accepted or rejected. If approved, your refund will be:
Processed within 5–10 business days
Issued to your original method of payment
Reflected in USD, as per your original purchase
Please note:
Refund times may vary depending on your bank or credit card provider.
We are not responsible for currency conversion rates or international transaction fees.
If your refund is late or missing, please check with your payment provider before contacting us.
7. Exchange Policy
We currently do not offer direct exchanges. If you wish to replace a product (e.g., different shade or type), we recommend returning the original item (if eligible) and placing a new order.
8. Order Cancellations
You may cancel your order within 12 hours of purchase, provided it has not yet been processed or shipped.
To cancel, contact us as soon as possible at info@stixmavel.com with your order number. If the order has already been fulfilled, it will be treated as a return (if eligible) once received.
9. Refused or Undeliverable Packages
If an order is returned to us due to:
Incorrect or incomplete shipping address
Refusal to accept delivery
Failure to pay customs/import duties
…you will be responsible for return shipping costs. We will issue a refund for the product(s) only, minus any applicable restocking or return fees. Original shipping costs are non-refundable.
10. Refunds for Discounted or Promotional Items
Items purchased during sales, discounts, or promotional events are only refundable at the price paid at checkout, not the original listed price.
If a discount code was used, your refund will reflect the discounted amount you paid, not the product’s regular price.
11. International Returns and Customs
For international orders:
Customs, duties, and taxes paid upon import are non-refundable through Stixmavel.
Any refund request must follow your local authority’s guidelines for reclaiming import fees.
If you return an item from outside the UK, please label it as “RETURNED MERCHANDISE” to avoid customs charges.
Failure to do so may result in refusal of the return or additional fees deducted from your refund.
12. Store Credit Option
In certain cases, you may request a store credit instead of a refund. Store credit:
Will be issued in USD
Will not expire
Can be used toward any future purchase on https://stixmavel.com
Store credit is non-transferable and cannot be converted to cash.
13. Policy Abuse and Limitations
To protect our small business from fraud and abuse, we reserve the right to:
Deny refunds or returns suspected of being fraudulent or excessive
Refuse service to individuals who misuse our refund policy
Limit the number of returns per customer account
We maintain records of all returns and reserve the right to reject future returns at our discretion.
14. Changes to This Policy
Stixmavel reserves the right to modify or update this Refund and Returns Policy at any time. All changes will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Continued use of our website after changes are made implies your agreement to the revised terms.
