Delivery 

The total cost of your order will be displayed before you pay. The postage and packaging costs are calculated automatically and will be shown on your order.

Our postage costs are weight driven to ensure the amount charged is as fair as possible, in accordance with Royal Mail guidelines.

We aim to dispatch your order within 2-3 working days of receipt of your order (with the exception of express delivery, UK only). This may vary according to events out of our control and during busy periods.

This service has a delivery target time of 3-7 working days (from when your order is dispatched), but can be subject to delays eg customs, local postal services.

EU countries

Conscious Skincare is now registered for the IOSS scheme in order to provide a better and clearer level of shipping service for our EU friends.

What does this mean?

Orders up to EUR 150:

- VAT will be displayed and collected by us at checkout in accordance with your countries tax regulations. You will not need to pay further tax upon delivery of your order. In addition:

- No additional handling charges, no further duties to pay.

- Faster shipping due to expedited customs clearance.

So in summary you will clearly see at the time of ordering fees due on your order which will avoid the uncertainty of hidden tax, duties and handling charges!

Orders over EUR 150:

The IOSS scheme does not apply and orders will therefore be subject to taxes, duties and handling charges at point of delivery.
