Item was left in porch yet I have no porch. Beauty bay ignored my messages regarding it so I'm out of pocket. From what I've heard it's all fake products too.

I returned my items completely untouched and still in the box and have yet to receive my refund. Customer service is horrible they don’t even read the emails just send the same one over and over. Been over 16 days since day of return and still haven’t received my refund.

98% sure my Karity Eyeshadows are FAKE. I have owned all of the shadows before when I ordered them straight from karity. These are chalky, not full, the color is off, and one of them was obviously already opened. They're probably not even eye safe. Shipping took 3+ weeks. SAVE YOUR MONEY

I ordered from beauty bay after seeing as on you tube. It was spur of the moment kind of thing. Than after reading some scary reviews I wasn't sure t all of I did the right thing. But... It turned out to be good! Ally products arrived on time, I could track my order after receiving email from beauty bay with the link. Products were nicely packed and all in tact. So no regrets at all. I would recommend.

Ordered for the first time, package never arrived so they wanted to refund it instead of sending a new package. Very dissapointing.

Poor all round! Bought something and they wouldn’t accept a refund! Even though I have a right to a refund they still denied. Go elsewhere !

Just a poor poor poor service. Why does this company not have live agents that you can speak to on the phone ???? Probably because they are a rogue company that don't want to be held accountable for anything . They send an email from a random person called Tanith where is the voice or face to this this person could a convicted peadophile for all I know I think they should at least one person on the phone the customer service is ridiculous. The company they use to deliver their parcels hermes their drivers are known to be dodgy and corrupt! Lucky I paid through PayPal they filed an insurance claim against this lame company and I got my money back thanks to PayPal. This is a dodgy business run in someone backyard in Manchester I would strongly advise to not use this worthless company at all!

Ordered an item with next day delivery which arrived few days late. I have left that address already. Although it was not my fault company refused to do anything. I mean nothing at all. Now or I have to spend £12 on travel to pick up item, which is half the price of the product, and 3 hours commuting, or buy another product. Elsewhere of course

BEAUTY BAY ARE NOT A REAL COMPANY. DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM. I PAID FOR A FOUNDATION AND NEVER RECEIVE ANYTHING. BY THE WASSUP NUMBER IT LOOK S LIKE THEIR IN ANOTHER EUROPEAN COUNTRIES. .GERMANY +49 1579 2387174 . DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM. THEY ARE SCAMMERS. I SENT NUMEROUS EMAILS, CALLED ON their WASSUP NUMBER. NO REPLY TO MY. QUESTION. ALSO THEY LOCKED ME OUT OF THE ACCOUNT. WHEN I TRIED TO RESEND PASSWORD NO EMAIL IT EVER SENT . Can't log in. The deliver company Hermes said that they had never even sent anything for them to deliver. LUCKILY I PAID FOR IT WITH PAYPAL SO MAYBE CAN GET MY money back. Share with as many people as possible so they cant steal peoples money Anymore.

The worst company ever. They do not reply to any messages at all. Parcel went missing. I emailed tweeted but got nothing. They don’t have a customer service department so you’re left to pretty much just wait for nothing. They don’t have live chat so again not much you can do. I had to contact my bank and Paypal to retrieve my money back. Will NEVER be ordering from them again. Have warned all my family and friends of this company.

If I could I'd give them no stars at all...actually minus infinity. Why? Well let's see... 1) Order no. 1 placed on 1.6.2019, value 217 EUR. Issue 1 - they censor the personal info on the package...so basically the carrier has no damn clue where to actually deliver the order. No phone number, only the street name, no block, no apartment. I had to track my own damn package and find out who is supposed to deliver it and provide the carrier with my personal infomation because BEAUTY F***ING BAY doesn't care enough to do that. The box comes completely damaged on the outside. Inside, the most expensive palette, The Beauty Killer from JSC, comes broken. I write to Beauty Bay on facebook. They answer with something very standard asking me to confirm my e-mail address, after which they don't answer anymore. I fill out the contact form on their website. They answer after 2 days, very condescending by the way telling me to ”stick to one form of contact only”. I ask for a replacement, they say it is against the company's policy to replace the damaged item. IN WHAT FANTASY UNIVERSE A COMPANY DOES NOT REPLACE A DAMAGED ITEM, because this is the very first time this happens. Then they say they will refund me 25 % of the palette's price. OK. 2) Order no. 2 placed 21.6.2019, the Jawbreaker Collection from JSC - WITH EXPRESS SHIPPING WORTH 20 F***ING EUROS. We are currently on the 30th of June. No sign of the order!!!!!! It hasn't even arrived in the warehouse of the carrier that is supposed to deliver it to me. EXPRESS F***ING SHIPPING!!! I contacted them again. No answer so far. Because that is extremely professional, right?? Want a piece of solid advice? DO NOT ORDER FROM BEAUTY BAY unless you want to get robbed of your time, money and patience.

Similar experience as some of the others on here, which is so frustrating as i am getting no where as beauty bay refuse to acknowledge me. I placed an order for next day delivery which said it was delivered at 5pm but on looking at the picture it's just black so no idea what that is! They are refusing to give me a refund for the good I haven't recieved, now I see from others that they have done this a few times, probably hoe they make a profit by not fulfilling some orders and keeping our money! Disgraceful company and like others have said AVOID AVOID AVOID

Same issue as the below contributor, delivery by Hermes has not been delivered at all after claiming to be attemped between 2-4pm, somehow signed off by a recipient at 8.30pm, which is out of Hermes delivery hours. When I emailed them they asked my to check with my neighbours, and pretty much the whole street where the address is located. I told them there is a reception and they do not recognise the signature and confirming that it has not been delivered. Customer service disappeared after my response. Customer service agents are not even real names, for eg. my one was called 'sunshine'. Interesting how with such a horrible service this company still in business. Avoid at all costs.

I don't normally write reviews but my experience with Beauty Bay has been just awful. The courier didn't deliver my order but claimed they had. I contacted the courier directly and they quickly confirmed it had been delivered elsewhere, but said I had to ask Beauty Bay for a resolution as there was nothing they could do. Not only have Beauty Bay been incredibly slow (one week after the non-delivery they still won't even tell me whether they'll either honour my order or issue a refund) but some of the customer service emails have been downright rude. My experience has been that when it works it works fine but when something goes wrong they're not just a disaster but a disaster with a bad attitude. This whole experience has been so unpleasant. Avoid avoid avoid.

I don’t really understand all the negative reviews on here. I placed my order Tuesday evening and it arrived Thursday morning. Excellent item and great service it’s a 10 out of 10 from me 😁

Be very careful with this company, if you have a problem with an item (I.e it's not for for use or for the purpose stated for) from my experience they will not help you at all. They will ask for proof that the product can't be used properly, you will send this evidence and they will come back with "its been opened and used so we can not accept it back" so basically using the evidence they asked you for against you! But as a consumer you have rights which this company from my experience doesnt want to acknowledge...Consumer Rights act 2015 and a short term right to reject an item that is not of satisfactory quality. They took no notice of this so I proceeded and talked to my bank who is going to refund me for the product that isn't of a satisfactory standard and is not for for use! Now Beautybay are threatening that this may prevent me from making future purposes! So let's clarify, a customer (who has shopped with them a number of times no problem either side) buys a product, that product arrives, customer tries the product out and can see that they can not use that item as it's not fit for use, customer contacts Beautybay, they ask for evidence, evidence sent, Beautybay tried to use customers evidence against them, customer relays thier right as a customer, Beautybay doesnt seem to care about this, customer contacts bank, the bank sort it out and Beautybay threaten the customer with a possible prevention to order ever again...WOW what a company....Will not be spending my money here again, feel free to prevent me from ordering again...
