How can we help you?
Return & refund
Return for a refund
To us, no order is complete until you are fully satisfied, this is why we make returns easy. If something isn’t quite right, you have 30 days to return.
It can take up to 14 days to receive and complete your return. If it's been longer than this, please contact customer service with proof of return, e.g. collection receipt, drop off slip. We always try to be as fast as possible, but during busy periods (such as gift giving holidays and sales) it can take a little longer.
A return form is included in your parcel. If you no longer have this form, simply print and fill in all required information in a new form.
We ask that items are returned clean, unworn and with all their tags attached. Shoes must be returned with their original boxes.
Naturally any faulty items can be returned. Any non-faulty items that are not in a condition suitable for resale (i.e. used, washed, soiled or damaged), will not be refunded and will be sent back to you.
If you’re feeling unsure about our sizing, please head over to our size guide and check the measurements. We ask that you keep returns to a minimum so that we together can reduce the environmental impact caused by unnecessary freights.
Returns have a cost of £3, which will be deducted from the total refunded amount.
Fill out the return form that comes with your order and pack your goods in the appropriate package, for example the same one your order came in. You can return more than one order or package at once, as long as you include all relevant return forms in the package.
Now select one of the below options to make your return.

Although fashion is meant to be available for everyone, some of our cosmetics classified as dangerous goods can’t be delivered to all locations due to transportation restrictions. E.g. nail polish, certain perfumes and nail polish removers as well as pressurised spray cans. At the same time, all our beauty items are tested to ensure that they are safe to use.
This label is used to inform the carrier that the package contains flammable substances and has special transportation requirements.
How to return dangerous goods:
If you wish to return items containing flammable substances, you need to be aware that there are special transportation requirements. Please follow these steps:
The product must be packed in a box with the LQ Dangerous goods label attached. If you use the original box, then the label is already attached. If you use a different box or the label is damaged, you need to print a new one.
Fill the box with paper or filler so that the product sits securely.
Follow the normal return procedure on your delivery note.
Please note, if you are making a return WITHOUT any dangerous goods, you must remove the LQ Dangerous goods label from the box.
