In the event that they are returned, the Customer will receive a refund of the price of the products within 14 working days of receipt of the returned products by ALEA COSMETIC. In the event that you wish to exchange them, you must pay the difference if the price of the returned product is lower than the new one.

In any case, the Customer shall be responsible for the return shipping costs. In addition, for the return to be accepted by ALEA COSMETIC, the following conditions must be met:

. Products must be returned within 14 working days from the date of receipt of the order by the Customer.

. ALEA COSMETIC will not accept the return of the product when it shows obvious signs of having been used.

. To carry out the return it will be necessary that the product is delivered with the packaging in perfect condition, that the product and its accessories are in perfect condition, as well as that the product is packaged in such a way that it is not possible to damage it during transport.

. On the other hand, if the Customer receives damaged or defective products, ALEA COSMETIC shall bear the cost of returning the order. In these cases, the Customer may choose between receiving a full refund of their order (which will be carried out within 14 working days from the date of receipt of the order), receiving the same product again (within 72 hours) or exchanging it for another product. In the latter case, the Customer must pay the difference if the price of the returned product is lower than the new one. If, on the other hand, the returned product is more expensive than the new one, ALEA COSMETIC will reimburse the difference within 14 days. In any case, whether the Customer decides to receive the same product again or to exchange it for another, ALEA COSMETIC shall also bear the shipping costs of this new delivery.
