PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY, AS THEY CONTAIN LEGALLY BINDING OBLIGATIONS. PLEASE PRINT AND RETAIN A COPY OF THESE TERMS AND YOUR ORDER FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
1. Contract
These terms of sale apply to the sale of all products (‘Products’) by ML BEAUTY ACADEMY (‘us’, ‘we’, ‘our’) which are made either via our website at www.mlbeautyeducation.com (our ‘Site’) or via the telephone. Where you purchase Products as a consumer (i.e. for your own personal use and not for resale or other use in the course of business) (‘Consumer’), your statutory rights are not affected.
1.1 Any order placed by you constitutes only an offer by you to buy the Products you have selected. Placing an order carries with it an obligation for you to pay but places no obligation on us to provide those Products. When we receive your order, we will send you an e-mail (or emails) acknowledging that we have received your order and/or setting out the details of your order (including the applicable charges). These e-mails only confirm the details of your order and the fact that your order has been received. They do not comprise acceptance of your order.
1.2 A contract between you and us (‘Contract’) will only be formed if/when we (i) expressly accept your order in writing or (ii) dispatch the ordered Products to you (each, ‘Acceptance’ or ‘Accepted’). Each Contract will relate only to those Products we have Accepted. We will be under no obligation to supply any Products until Acceptance. All orders are subject to acceptance by us in our absolute discretion.
2. Your status
By placing an order with us, you warrant that you are authorised and/or entitled to enter into legally binding contracts with us and that in doing so you will not breach any law or any obligation to any third party. If you are an individual, you represent and confirm that you are at least 18 years of age and that you will use the Products in strict accordance with all guidance and other requirements issued by us (including any set out on our Site) and (if applicable) any usage requirements or conditions specified by the Product manufacturer. We will only accept orders for any adhesives, or any Product containing any adhesives, from appropriately qualified Professionals (as defined in clause 7) and if you place an order for any such Product, you represent and confirm that you are a Professional and that you will use the adhesives in strict accordance with our requirements, including those set out on our Site and in clause 7 below.
3. Our status
We are a UK Self employed registered on 7 Meakin House ,100 Georges Road, N78JB, LONDON, UK
4. Product description and price
4.1 We have taken reasonable care to describe all Products as accurately as possible. However, slight variations in description may occur.
4.2 The price of any Products will be as quoted on our Site from time to time, except in cases of obvious error. Our prices include VAT (if applicable) but exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due in accordance with our delivery charges in force from time to time.
4.3 Prices are liable to change at any time, but subsequent changes will not affect accepted orders.
4.4 It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products listed on our Site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures, so that where a Product's correct price is less than our stated price we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Product to you. If a Product´s correct price is higher than the price stated on our Site, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the Product, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection.
4.5 We are under no obligation to provide the Product to you at an incorrect (lower) price, even after Acceptance, if the pricing error is obvious and/or could have reasonably been recognised as a mis-pricing.
5. Payment
Payment for all Products must be by credit or debit card, PayPal or by any of the other payment options specified on our Site. We shall be entitled to withhold delivery and/or cancel the Contract if we do not receive full payment from you in cleared funds. We will not charge your credit or debit card until we dispatch your order but you should be aware that our payment processing provider will allocate the required funds at the point at which you place your order, such that the allocation will count against your current credit limit, despite the fact that the funds have not yet been deducted.
6. Availability and delivery
6.1 Your order will be fulfilled without undue delay and by any delivery date confirmed by us or, if no delivery date is specified, then within 30 days of our Acceptance of your order. Delivery will be made to the delivery address specified when you submit your order.
6.2 If delivery is delayed we shall inform you but we will not be liable for any loss or damage suffered by you through reasonable or unavoidable delay in delivery, save that if we do not deliver within the said delivery periods, we shall refund you the paid purchase price upon request. If delivery cannot be made to your chosen delivery address, you will be informed as soon as reasonably possible.
6.3 If you refuse the delivery of your order for reasons under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 (‘Regulations’) or you fail to take delivery because you have cancelled your Contract under the Regulations, we will refund or re-credit you for any sum paid by you or debited from your credit card for the Products in accordance with clause 10 below.
6.4 Upon delivery of your order you may be asked to sign for the Products received. If the package does not appear to be in good condition then please refuse the delivery. If you are unable to check the contents of the delivery then please ensure you sign for the parcel “unchecked”.
7. Adhesive Products – Professionals Only
7.1 Adhesives are Products which carry a risk of personal injury if they are not used and applied properly by appropriately qualified professionals, by which we mean someone who (i) holds a certificate of competence in individual eyelash extension, and (ii) is proficient and knowledgeable in the use and application of all eyelash extension products, particularly adhesives, and (iii) is fully insured regarding the said use and application of eyelash products and adhesives (together, a ‘Professional’).
7.2 We will only supply adhesive Products to Professionals and we might require anyone ordering such Products to provide proof (to our satisfaction) which demonstrates that they are appropriately qualified, comply with all relevant standards and requirements and are otherwise suitable to apply the adhesive Products correctly. Should you fail to provide such information, or information to our satisfaction, we will not supply you with adhesive Products. If we have any reason at all to suspect that you are not appropriately qualified and compliant, we reserve the right not to supply you with any adhesive Products and/or to cancel any order placed by you, whether or not Accepted by us.
7.3 Without prejudice to the requirements set out in clause 7.2 above, you undertake and covenant to use any adhesive Products as follows:
(a) You will first conduct a careful and detailed client consultation in which you will check for any potential contraindications;
(b) If any contraindications are found or indicated you will provide the material safety data sheet to the client’s GP and obtain sign-off from the GP before proceeding any further with the client consultation or treatment;
(c) Subject to (a) and (b) above, you will carry out a 48 hour patch test prior to any use of adhesive Products, in accordance with any recommendations set by us and in line with best industry practice, and only proceed with any treatment following a positive outcome to the patch test;
(d) You will use adhesive Products only for closed eye treatments;
(e) You will never use any adhesive Products on any client who has or has had any eye condition; laser eye correction, open wounds on the face, eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, recent semi-permanent make up or facial surgery, or any condition which would otherwise make them unsuitable for the use of adhesive Products.
8. Consumer rights
8.1 Where you contract as a Consumer, each Contract is subject to your rights of cancellation set out in this clause.
8.2 In case if you change your mind and would like to cancel your order and receive a refund:
a) Contact us as soon as possible and return the products back to us within 14 days from receiving them. Please make sure that it is within 14 days period of receipt (otherwise we reserve rights not to refund) and that the products are unused, unopened and in its original packaging.
(b) The cancellation period expires after 14 days from the day you (or anyone nominated by you) receive(s) the last of the Products;
(c) If you decide to cancel your order and it's already been sent out by us to you, we will need to receive it back first before proceeding with the refund. Please allow up 30 days for this to happen.
(d) Some banks charge fees for sending payments to overseas in their own currency. Unfortunately these are fees that ML BEAUTY ACADEMY has no control over as they are standard bank fees charged by the sender's bank. Please note that in event of refund we can only refund the amount we have received for products and not the bank charges.
(e) In case if the order had been lost please allow up to 30 working days before declaring it lost and claiming the refund for it. We ship orders by Royal Mail/DHL/DPD who instructed us that in some cases it can take as long as that. We will be able to proceed with the refund if it's over that period.
8.3 To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us of your decision to cancel the Contract by a clear statement (for example, a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail). For these purposes, our contact details are: Telephone 07393889812, email info@mlbeautyeducation.com.
8.4 Should you cancel within the above periods, you will receive a refund of the price paid for the Products in accordance with our refunds policy, set out in clause 10 below, provided that you comply with any other applicable terms.
9. Risk and title
The Products will be at your risk from the time you (or anyone nominated by you) receive(s) the Products. Ownership of the Products will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products, inclusive of all delivery charges.
10. Returns and refunds
10.1 If you act as a Consumer and exercise your rights of cancellation under the Regulations but have received Products in connection with the Contract, you:
(a) shall send back the Products, or hand them over to us, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation of the Contract to us – the said deadline being met if you send back the Products before the period of 14 days has expired;
(b) will have to bear the direct cost of returning the Products. If the Products cannot normally be sent by post, you will have to bear the direct cost of returning the Products, which we estimate will cost an approximate maximum of £10.00 if returning the products by courier.
(c) must take reasonable care of the Products whilst they are in your possession. You are liable for any diminished value of the Products resulting from the handling of the Products other than as required to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Products.
10.2 If you cancel the Contract in accordance with your cancellation rights under the Regulations, we will reimburse all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us). We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than (a) 14 days after the day we receive back from you the Products supplied, or (b) (if earlier) 14 days after the day you provide evidence that you have returned the Products. We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the Products back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the Products, whichever is the earliest.
10.3 When you return a Product to us for any other reason (e.g. because you claim that the Product is defective), and whether or not you are a Consumer, we will examine the returned Product and will notify you of your refund via e-mail within a reasonable period of time. We will usually process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days of the day we confirm to you via e-mail that you were entitled to a refund for the defective Product. Products returned by you because of a defect will be refunded in full when we have verified the defect, including a refund of the delivery charges for sending the item to you and the reasonable cost incurred by you in returning the item to us by the most cost-efficient route reasonably available. You agree to return all Products by first class recorded delivery to ensure the tracking of all items. This right is limited to 30 days from the date you buy your product. After 30 days you will not be legally entitled to a full refund if your item develops a fault.
10.4 When making any return(s) to us, you agree to comply with any returns process notified by us.
10.5 We will refund any money received from you using the same method originally used by you to pay for your purchase unless you expressly agree otherwise. You will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement but we may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any Products supplied if the loss is the result of handling of the Products other than as required to establish their nature, characteristics and function.
10.6 Refunds are carried out by our payment processor and while we will endeavor to ensure refunds are paid in accordance with the timescales set out above, we will not be liable for any delays outside our control.
