Are your products suitable for vegetarians/ vegans?

Yes. Everything is vegan friendly. And always will be. As a vegan run business we will never change these ethics.

As a vegan run business this is one of our strongest Ethics.
We will never sell any brands that test on animals.
We will never sell any brands that sell their products where it is the law to test on animals.
We will never sell any brands that are owned by an animal testing parent company.

If a brand we sell is brought out by an unethical company OR if they start to sell anywhere it is the law to test on animals we will simply stop selling their range.

Do you offer Free Samples?

Please note. If you are ordering just products from Buddha Beauty, Eden perfumes or Zao makeup you may not receive any free samples. This is because these items might be sent directly from the brands themselves.

Do you offer Plastic Free Samples?

We have a number of plastic free samples which will be marked as such.

I didn't receive my free samples in my order

The free samples are a gift to you from us.

Your part in selecting a free sample is to ensure that it is added to your basket. If it is not in your basket we will not know that you have selected a free sample or which one you would like so we will not add one to your order.

If you would like a free sample and don’t have one listed on your order confirmation email please contact us ASAP and we can add this to your order if it hasn’t already been packaged up for dispatch. In this instance please contact us at info@Greenerbeauty.com

If your order has already been packaged for dispatch I am sorry to say that we wont be able to add the free sample.

If you contact us after you have received an order because you didn’t receive a sample and there isn’t one listed on your order confirmation email, we will not be able to send the free sample separately.

Please note that adding the free sample is not legally binding, we will do our best to fulfil all sample requests but we cannot guarantee them.

Please also note. If you are ordering just products from Buddha Beauty, Eden perfumes or Zao makeup you may not receive any free samples. This is because these items might be sent directly from the brands themselves.

I received different samples to the ones I selected

The free samples are a gift to you from us.

We always work hard to ensure that the sample you selected are added to your order but on occasion these are unavailable so we will select the closest sample that we have available instead. If  you selected a plastic free sample we will always replace with a plastic free sample if possible.

If we don’t have your sample in stock we don’t want to slow your order down arriving with you so we will just dispatch with a replacement without contacting you.

Can I just order some free samples?

Sadly we can only offer free samples to our customers who have placed an order.

CHARITIES

I see you plant trees for every order, do you have a really big garden that you plant them in?

If only! We would love to live surrounded by trees and nature but sadly we do not. We are a partner with Eden Reforestation who plant trees all around the world employing local people at a fair wage where the trees are most needed. You can read more about them here.

Are you Carbon Neutral?

We are working towards being totally carbon neutral by planting trees with Eden Reforestation. We plant 15 trees per month for each member of staff which covers the carbon emissions of our laptops. We also plant 50 trees per month to negate the carbon footprint of our website.

How do the charity donations at checkout work?

Any donation made at checkout to one of our chosen charities is 100% donated to them. We schedule the donations to them either quarterly or monthly depending on the charities preferred frequency.
