MISSING PACKAGES MARKED "DELIVERED"

If your tracking information shows that your order has been delivered but you are unable to find it, please follow the steps below:

  1. Check your surrounding area, including your mailbox, porch, and any safe delivery locations. Please also check with neighbors in case the package was delivered to the wrong address.
  2. Allow up to 2 business days after the “Delivered” scan, as carriers may occasionally mark packages as delivered prior to final drop-off.
  3. If your package still has not arrived after 2 business days, please file a missing mail inquiry with USPS here: https://missingmail.usps.com/. Kindly send us the response from USPS once received.
  4. Bring your tracking number to your local post office so they can geolocate the delivery scan and confirm where the package was delivered. If it was delivered incorrectly, you may request assistance in retrieving it. In some cases, misdelivered packages are corrected within 72 hours.
  5. If you believe your package has been stolen, we recommend filing a police report for theft.

Please note: once UPS tracking shows a status of “Delivered,” Skin Theory Esthetics LLC considers the order fulfilled. At that point, the customer is responsible for contacting the shipping carrier directly to initiate a claim and/or filing a police report if theft is suspected.

Skin Theory Esthetics is only able to refund or replace orders marked as “Delivered” if Signature Confirmation was selected at checkout. If you would like to add Signature Confirmation to your order, please contact us prior to placing your order at (630) 488-6334.

MISSING PACKAGES  

If you think your order is lost in transit by the carrier, file a missing mail inquiry with the USPS here: https://missingmail.usps.com/. Send the USPS missing inquiry response to us.

DAMAGED PRODUCT

If a product is damaged upon receipt, please notify us at hello@skintheoryesthetics.com. Please include a picture of the damaged product. We will send a replacement out to you at no cost.

RECEIPT OF WRONG INCORRECT PRODUCT

If you receive an incorrect item in your order, please contact us within 5 days of delivery at hello@skintheoryesthetics.com. We will issue a return shipping label via email for the return of the incorrect product. Once we receive and inspect the returned item, we will promptly send the correct product.

Returned items must be unopened and unused. If the product has been opened or used, we may not be able to process a replacement.

While we work hard to ensure every order is accurate, mistakes can occasionally happen. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.

INCORRECT ADDRESS OR INCORRECT RECEIPIENT NAME

If a customer provides an incorrect address or name for shipping an order and that order is returned to us, we can re-ship it to a corrected address as notified by the customer. Free shipping does not apply to this second round of shipping. If a package is accepted and not returned from an incorrect customer-provided address or name, Skin Theory cannot refund or replace the order.
