Delivery
uk delivery
What are my options for UK delivery?
You'll find your delivery options at the checkout page.
We offer free standard delivery on all orders, with no minimum spend.
DPD Next Day is also available for £5.50, if you need a faster delivery service.
How do you package the goods? Will they arrive in one piece?
We treat each order like we did our very first one – with lots of care. We hand pack your products in recyclable, protective packaging and send them as soon as we can. If for any reason you're not happy with our delivery or the condition of your products, we’d really like to hear from you.
Do the products need to be refrigerated in transit?
No, not at all. Only our liquids need to be refrigerated once they are opened.
International Delivery
Unfortunately, due to delivery issues we've had to stop shipping internationally. We're hoping this will be temporary and we'll let you know as soon as anything changes.
For now, you can buy our products via some of our lovely online, retailers. Here's our full stockist list. Content Beauty, Victoria Health and Bodykind are still shipping overseas, so you may like to give them a go.
Where's My Order
When you haven't received your order yet
My order still hasn't arrived.
You can check on your parcel's journey via your tracking info. It's possible you'll need to arrange a redelivery, or collect your parcel from the local collection point, if you weren't home when Royal Mail attempted their first delivery. Your tracking info should be included in your despatch email. If you haven't received this email from us, it's best to check your spam folder first, just in case it's ended up there by mistake!
Otherwise, please get in touch via info@barebiology.com, or live chat, and we'll be very happy to help.
My tracking says delivered, but I haven't received my parcel?
The first thing to do is check any 'safe places' immediately. Previously selected 'safe places' might still be saved in delivery preferences. Next, check with a neighbour. It's not uncommon for couriers to leave your parcel at a nearby address if you're out, or accidentally get the door number wrong. If it still hasn't turned up, please get in touch via info@barebiology.com, or our live chat, so we can help straight away.
Cancelling, changing or returning my order
Cancelling My Order
I've just placed an order, can I cancel it?
We cannot cancel orders or payments that have already gone through. The system is is fully automated and the warehouse packs the order within minutes of receiving it. It's then impossible to retrieve that package from a mountain of other packages waiting for collection.
You can, of course, return your order to us once you receive it and we'll issue a refund as soon as we've checked the items are in good condition. You will need to pay for the return postage and we strongly suggest you use a signed for option, as we can't issue a refund until we receive the goods.
My subscription order has just processed, can I cancel it?
We cannot cancel orders or payments that have already gone through. The system is fully automated and the warehouse packs the order within minutes of receiving it.
We send a reminder email 3 days before your shipment date, so you have time to cancel, skip a delivery, or arrange an alternative date. You have until 10am on the day of your charge to do this.
Make sure you don't miss the email reminder 3 days before and add us to your contacts if necessary (add info@barebiology.com), to avoid the risk of it going into your spam folder.
Can I change my order?
Our warehouse packs within minutes of receiving your order, so we cannot change orders once they've been placed. If there's an issue with your shipping info, your courier should hopefully give you the option to update your delivery preferences once you're given your delivery slot.
Returns and Refunds
I would like to return my order
Hopefully you won't need to return your products, but if you do, please kindly re-package your return with a note including your name and order number, and send within 45 days to:
Bare Biology Ltd,
Haul + Store
Unit 17, Admiralty Way
Camberley, Surrey, GU15 3DT
We can only process refunds for returned products that arrive in a re-saleable condition. We can't cover postage costs.
Please help us to ensure you qualify for a full refund by:
✓ checking the safety seal on the product is intact
✓ ensuring the product is well packaged
✓ obtaining proof of postage
We recommend using a trackable service, as we can't process a refund until we receive the goods.
How long will it take for me to receive my refund?
As soon as we receive your order back to our warehouse, we check it and then issue you with a refund on to your original payment card. Please allow 21 days for returns to be processed. Once refunded, transactions can take 5-10 working days to clear through your bank.
