You will have an opportunity to check and correct any input errors in your order up until the point at which you submit your order by clicking the “Make Payment Now” button on the “Order Summary” page. 

2.2 After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order and giving an order number and a summary of your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy a Product. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm our acceptance to you by sending you an e-mail that confirms that the Product has been dispatched (Dispatch Confirmation). The contract between us will only be formed when we send you the Dispatch Confirmation.

2.3 The Contract will relate only to those Products listed in the Dispatch
Confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any other Products which may have been part of your order until such Products have been confirmed in a separate Dispatch Confirmation.

2.4 If we are unable to supply you with a Product that you have already paid for, we will refund you the full amount of the cost of the Product charged as soon as possible. We might be unable to supply you with a Product because that Product
is not in stock or is no longer available, there is a problem with
authorisation of the payment card you have provided, or because we cannot meet your requested delivery date.

2.5 You must only purchase up to the maximum quantity of any Product permissible on the website i.e. you may not be able to purchase more than 10 items of the same Product (Order Quantity Limit).

3.1 The images of the Products on the Site are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that your computer's display of the colours accurately reflect the colour of the Products. Your Products may vary slightly from those images.

3.2 The packaging of the Products may vary from that shown on images on the Site.

4.1 We may make changes to these Terms but if we do so, we will notify you and you may then contact us to end the Contract before the changes take effect and receive a refund for Products paid for but not received.

5.1 The cost of delivery will be as displayed to you on our Site.

5.2 All UK and international orders will be sent via our delivery partners.

5.3 We will aim to deliver all Products comprised in your order in one delivery, however if this is not
practically possible, the Products in your order may be delivered in instalments/parts. Where you have made multiple orders, we reserve the right to deliver such orders together within the same delivery. We will deliver directly to the delivery address specified in your order. Please see delivery information for details of where we deliver and the available delivery options. We cannot deliver Products within the same order to multiple addresses.

5.4 We will deliver the Products to you as soon as reasonably possible and in any event within 30 days after the day on which we send you the Dispatch Confirmation (the Delivery Deadline).

5.6 If you do not take delivery of the Products from us or a delivery depot as arranged or if, after a failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery, we will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange delivery or collection we may end the Contract and Clause 11 will apply.

5.7 If we fail to deliver any Products to you by the Delivery Deadline, then you may cancel your order straight away if any of the following apply:

5.7.1 we have refused to deliver the Products;

5.7.2 delivery within the Delivery Deadline was essential (taking into account all the relevant circumstances); or

5.7.3 you told us before we accepted your order that delivery within the Delivery Deadline was essential.

5.8 If you do not wish to cancel your order straight away, or do not have the right to do so under Clause 5.7, you can give us a new deadline for delivery, which must be reasonable, and you can cancel your order if we do not meet the new deadline.

5.9 If you do choose to cancel your order for late delivery under Clause 5.7 or 5.8, you can cancel your order for any of the Products or reject any Products that have already been delivered (unless splitting them up would significantly reduce their value). Where Products have already been delivered, you must return them unopened and in their original packaging to: Customer Services, FB Beauty Ltd, Unit A Midway Gilchrist Road, Irlam, Manchester, England, M44 5AY. After you cancel your order, we will refund back to you the cost of the Products and any delivery charges (unless only part of the order is cancelled or rejected, in which case, delivery charges will not be refunded).

5.10 We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the Products is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the Contract and receive a refund for any Products you have paid for but not received.

6.1 We deliver to the following countries outside of the UK: Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Guernsey, Ireland, Italy, Jersey, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain and the USA (International Delivery Destinations). Please visit this page for more details. However
there are restrictions on some Products for certain International Delivery Destinations, so please review the information on that page carefully before ordering Products.

6.2 If you order Products from our site for delivery to one of the International Delivery Destinations, your order may be subject to import duties and taxes which are applied when the delivery reaches that destination. Please note that we have no control over these charges and we cannot predict their amount.  

6.3 You will be responsible for payment of any such import duties and taxes. Please contact your local customs office for further information before placing your order.

6.4 You must comply with all applicable laws and regulations of the country for which the Products are destined. We will not be responsible if you break any such law.

7.1 Risk: Once delivered at the delivery address stated in your order, the Products will become your responsibility.

7.2 Ownership: Ownership of the Products will pass to you when:

7.2.1 we have received full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products (including delivery charges); and

7.2.2 the Products have been delivered to you.

8.1 The price of any Products will be as quoted on the Site from time to time, except in cases of obvious error. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Products advised to you is correct. However please see Clause 8.6 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the Product(s) you order.

8.2 The prices quoted on the Site include VAT but exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due once you have selected a delivery service from
the available options. Our delivery charges are as advised to you during the check-out process, before you confirm your order. To check relevant delivery charges, please refer to our Shipping, Delivery and Returns page.

8.3 Prices might change at any time, but changes will not affect your order if we have already sent you a Dispatch Confirmation, unless the rate of VAT changes between the date we send you the Dispatch Notification and the date the Products are delivered to you. If the rate of VAT changes between the date of your order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the Products in full before the change in VAT takes effect.

8.4 Payment can be made by most major credit or debit cards, by completing the relevant details within the “Billing Information” section of the "Check Out" page.

8.5 By using a credit/debit card to pay for your order, you confirm that the payment card being used is yours. All payment card holders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If your card issuer refuses to authorise payment we will not accept your order and we will not be responsible to you for any delay or non-delivery of the Products. If your payment card is refused by the card issuer, we are not obliged to inform you of the reason for the refusal. We are not responsible to you if your card issuer or bank charges you as a result of us processing of your payment card in accordance with your order.

8.6 The Site contains a large number of Products and it is always possible that some of the Products listed on the Site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where a Product's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If a Product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the Contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.

8.7 The website may offer 'Web Exclusive Prices' on selected Products which will be cheaper than store prices.

14.2 Failure by us to enforce a right does not result in waiver of such right. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these Terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this Contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.

and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the Products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
