Terms & Conditions
Terms & Conditions
These Terms & Conditions govern your use of the Cost Effective Cosmetics website and any purchase, enquiry, or interaction made through it. By using this website or placing an order, you agree to these Terms & Conditions. If you do not agree, you should not use the site or purchase from us.
1. Wholesale Nature of the Store
Cost Effective Cosmetics operates as a wholesale-focused cosmetics and skincare supplier. Product listings, pricing, and packaging are intended for buyers purchasing by the box. Unless expressly stated otherwise, products are sold as sealed wholesale units and not as single retail items.
2. Eligibility to Purchase
By placing an order, you confirm that you are legally capable of entering into a binding agreement and that the information you provide is accurate, complete, and current. If you place an order on behalf of a company or other business entity, you confirm that you are authorised to do so.
3. Product Information
We make reasonable efforts to present accurate descriptions, pricing, and imagery. However, packaging, labeling, batch details, colours, and presentation may vary from images shown on the website. Product images are illustrative and should not be treated as guarantees of identical packaging presentation in every production run.
4. Pricing
All pricing displayed on the website is subject to change without notice. Prices are shown in the currency stated on the site unless otherwise indicated. Although we take care to maintain correct pricing, typographical, technical, or system errors may occur. We reserve the right to correct pricing errors and to cancel or refuse any order placed using incorrect pricing.
5. Orders and Acceptance
Submitting an order does not automatically mean the order has been accepted. Orders may be reviewed for stock availability, fraud prevention, shipping feasibility, regulatory concerns, or other operational reasons. We reserve the right to decline, limit, cancel, or refund any order at our discretion before fulfillment.
6. Payment
Payment must be completed through an approved payment method before an order is processed unless we have separately agreed to invoice or offline payment terms in writing. You authorise us and our payment processors to charge the payment method used for the full order amount, including any applicable taxes, duties, or agreed adjustments.
7. Shipping and Delivery
Delivery timelines are estimates only and are not guaranteed unless we expressly agree otherwise in writing. Risk of delay caused by customs, transport interruptions, carrier delays, import inspections, weather, force majeure, or incorrect customer details remains outside our reasonable control. Customers are responsible for providing accurate shipping details and for complying with import rules in their destination country.
8. Customs, Duties, and Local Compliance
Customers are responsible for any customs duties, import taxes, brokerage fees, permits, registration requirements, product compliance obligations, or local restrictions that apply in the destination country unless we expressly state otherwise in writing. The customer is also responsible for ensuring the products ordered may be legally imported, marketed, labeled, or resold in their jurisdiction.
9. Cancellations
If you need to cancel an order, contact us immediately. Once an order has been processed, packed, shipped, or handed to a carrier, cancellation may not be possible. If cancellation is approved before dispatch, any non-recoverable processing or payment fees may still be deducted where permitted by law.
10. Refunds, Returns, and Claims
Refunds and return rights are governed by our Refund Policy in addition to applicable law. Customers must inspect orders promptly on arrival and notify us within the stated claim period if an item is damaged, incorrect, or materially defective.
11. Customer Accounts and Site Access
We may choose to offer or restrict account-related features at any time. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any login credentials associated with your use of the website and for all activities carried out using those credentials.
12. Prohibited Use
You agree not to misuse the website, interfere with its functionality, submit false orders, attempt unauthorised access, upload malicious code, scrape content in a harmful way, or use the site for unlawful, fraudulent, abusive, or misleading conduct.

14. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Cost Effective Cosmetics is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or business-interruption losses, including loss of profit, loss of revenue, loss of opportunity, or reputational damage arising from the use of the website or purchase of products. Our total liability in relation to a claim will not exceed the amount paid for the relevant order giving rise to the claim, unless a different limit is required by law.
15. No Warranty Beyond Law
Except as required by applicable law, products and website services are provided on an as is and as available basis. We do not guarantee uninterrupted site availability, error-free operation, or suitability of products for every market, customer use case, or resale environment.
16. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Cost Effective Cosmetics from claims, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses arising from your misuse of the website, your breach of these terms, your violation of law, or your import, resale, labeling, marketing, or end-use of products purchased from us.

These Terms & Conditions are governed by the laws applicable to the operating business entity behind Cost Effective Cosmetics, unless otherwise required by mandatory consumer or commercial law. Any dispute relating to the site or an order will be handled in the appropriate courts or forums with jurisdiction over that entity, unless otherwise agreed.
