Terms of Use
PLEASE NOTE: Like hairstyles, cocktail menus and beauty trends (hello, neon pink blush). Change is normal. So it's only natural that Australia's skin care regulations, laws and ingredients from manufacturers evolve and adjust over time. This is out of our control, and can result in products being discontinued or ingredients updated with short notice. Lucky for you, you're able to buy the exact amount of packaged products you need with our label printing service. So you'll never get stuck with a bunch of bottles you can't use because the ingredients have changed. #genius. Think of it this way: it means your products are always up with the latest industry improvements, laws and ingredient glowups. We'll raise our blush brush to that!
