The product must be returned in the condition in which it was received, unused, with intact commercial appearance, in its original packaging and with all accompanying documents and accessories, where applicable.

The User is responsible for any diminished value of the product resulting from handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and proper functioning of the product.

  • the product has been used, opened or has a broken protective seal or packaging;

VIII. Additional 30-Day Return Policy

In addition to the statutory 14-day right of withdrawal, CollagenLab® may offer an additional 30-day return policy, where expressly stated on the website.

The Trader may withhold the refund until the returned product has been received or until the User provides proof that the product has been sent back, whichever occurs first.

Return shipping costs are borne by the User, unless the product is defective, damaged, incorrectly shipped or unless the Trader has expressly stated otherwise in a specific campaign or policy.

The initial standard delivery costs shall be refunded in accordance with applicable law. Additional costs resulting from the User’s choice of a more expensive delivery method than the standard delivery option shall not be refunded, unless otherwise required by law.
