Placing An Order

FAQs when placing an order

Orders are typically processed and shipped out 1-3 business days following purchase. Please allow an additional 24-48 hrs following shipment for the tracking number to begin showing tracking updates.

There is a 6 hour grace period from the time of purchase to change or cancel all orders. To make updates to an order, simply cancel the initial order within the timeframe and re-purchase. After this grace period has lapsed, all orders are final and the standard return policy will go into effect.

All items listed as 'Pre-Order' will have an estimated ship date in the description. Note that this is an estimated date and can be impacted by factors beyond our control. Please allow up to 3 business days following this date for an order update.

Note: Pre-Order items become final sale after the 6-hour order modification period has expired. No adjustments including order cancellation can be made after this time.

We undergo a thorough inspection process to ensure that your order is complete, packed properly and released to the courier intact for delivery. In the event that a part of your order is missing, follow the steps below:

1. Verify that the package has not been opened or tampered with.

2. If it has, contact the courier immediately.

3. Verify that the item(s) were purchased by checking your order confirmation email. Also verify that there was no additional information sent pertaining to the delivery of said missing item(s).

4. If you've reached this step, contact us at support@tawnybeauty.com for further assistance.

FAQs about acceptable payment methods

We offer eGift cards in 6 amounts ranging from 15 to 100 USD. Gift cards expire 5 years after issuance or 365 days after inactivity, whichever occurs first. All gift cards are final sale and non-refundable. Note: You cannot purchase eGift cards using AfterPay or Klarna.

FAQs on placing subscription orders

We offer auto-renewable bi-weekly and monthly subscriptions on a curated selection of products. Bi-weekly subscribers enjoy 35% off the full product price, while monthly subscribers receive 20% off.

To get started, simply visit the product page to see if subscriptions are available for that particular product. Select the desired delivery/billing frequency and proceed to checkout as usual.

For more info see our Terms and Conditions, Shipping and Return policies.

We accept Visa, MasterCard, AMEX, ApplePay, and PayPal for subscription orders. You may not use AfterPay, Klarna or TB eGift cards on orders containing a subscription.

Subscription orders are subject to the same delivery times as regular, one-time purchases. In other words, when you initiate your subscription, your order is processed and shipped out within 1-3 business days following purchase.

Subsequent orders are processed and shipped out within 24 hrs of your subscription payment being processed.

After your order has shipped, please allow an additional 24-48 hrs for your tracking number to begin showing tracking updates.

You may pause, skip or cancel your subscription at any time using the subscription management link sent in your order confirmation.

The last day to modify your subscription without penalty is 5 days before the next payment date. For example, if your subscription renews on the 15th of each month and you wish to pause, skip or cancel your next delivery - you must opt to do so by 11:59 pm est on the 10th of the month. The same 5-day period also applies to modifications of bi-weekly subscriptions.

Any attempt to pause, skip or cancel your subscription after the last day to do so for your next delivery will not effect that delivery, but the one immediately following it.

Subscription orders are subject to the standard Return Policy here.
