- What these terms cover. These are the terms and conditions on which we supply products to you.
- Why you should read them. Please read these terms carefully before you submit your order to us. These terms tell you who we are, how we will provide products to you, how you and we may change or end the contract, what to do if there is a problem and other important information. If you think that there is a mistake in these terms, please contact us to discuss. These terms may be updated form time to time and may change depending on the time in which you place your order. We suggest you always check our website and these terms to ensure you understand them prior to each and every order you make.
- Are you a consumer or business customer? By purchasing the products from our site you confirm that they're for professional use. If you are outside the UK, then you may purchase the products for professional or personal use. Therefore, if you are based outside the UK, in some areas you will have different rights under these terms depending on whether you are a business or consumer. You are a consumer if:
- You are an individual.
- You are buying products from us wholly or mainly for your personal use (not for use in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession).
- If you are a business customer this is our entire agreement with you. If you are a business customer these terms constitute the entire agreement between us in relation to your purchase. You acknowledge that you have not relied on any statement, promise, representation, assurance or warranty made or given by or on behalf of us which is not set out in these terms and that you shall have no claim for innocent or negligent misrepresentation or negligent misstatement based on any statement in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the above, if you are a distributor, you may also be bound by the terms of our Distribution Agreement as agreed by the parties. To the extent there are any inconsistences in these terms and the terms of the Distribution Agreement, the terms of the Distribution Agreement shall prevail.

- Placing your order. Please follow the onscreen prompts to place an order. Each order is an offer by you to buy the products specified in the order (products) subject to these Terms.

- If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the product. This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because a credit reference we have obtained for you does not meet our minimum requirements, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified. If you have already paid for the products, we will apply a credit note for the full amount paid for the products (including delivery fee) to your account.
- Your order number. We will assign an order number to your order and tell you what it is when we accept your order. It will help us if you can tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.
- Adding to your order. Due to our automated fulfilment and shipping processes it is not always possible to add products to your order. However, at our discretion, on some occasions we might be able to add to your order. To see whether products can be added to your order, the following conditions must apply:
- you must contact us within 24 hours of our email acknowledging receipt (clause 4.3) and advise us that you wish to add to your order; and
- your order add on must exceed £100.00; and

- Once your products are ready for dispatch, our nominated courier or delivery organisation will contact you directly with an estimated delivery date. Please allow 1 to 10 working days estimated dispatch time. Should your order not arrive, please contact us and we will investigate this matter; in certain circumstances, a full refund (in the form of a credit to your account) or a replacement may be offered once 15 days (for UK orders) has elapsed.
- Delivery is complete once the products have been unloaded at the address for delivery set out in your order and the products will be at your risk from that time.
- You own the products once we have received payment in full, including of all applicable delivery charges.
- If you are not at home when the product is delivered. If no one is available at your address to take delivery and the products cannot be posted through your letterbox, the courier/delivery driver will leave you a note informing you of how to rearrange delivery or collect the products from a local depot.
- If you do not re-arrange delivery. If you do not collect the products as arranged or if, after a failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery or collect them from a delivery depot, we or the courier will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. If, despite reasonable efforts, we ,or the courier, are unable to contact you or re-arrange delivery or collection we may end the contract.
- If we fail to deliver the products, our liability is limited to the cost of obtaining replacement products of a similar description and quality in the cheapest market available, less the price of the products. However, we will not be liable if you failed to provide adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of products.
- We are not responsible for delays outside our control. Occasionally our delivery to you may be affected by an event outside our control. If our supply of the products is delayed by an event outside our control then we (or our courier) will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we (or our courier) do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any products you have paid for but not received.
8. International delivery
- We deliver to the countries listed on our website at check-out (International Delivery Destinations). However, there are restrictions on some products for certain International Delivery Destinations, so please review the information on that page carefully before ordering products.
- If you order products from our site for delivery to one of the International Delivery Destinations, your order may be subject to import duties and taxes which are applied when the delivery reaches that destination. Please note that we have no control over these charges and we cannot predict their amount.
- You will be responsible for payment of any such import duties and taxes. Please contact your local customs office for further information before placing your order. If you refuse to pay the charges levied by customs and excise and the products are returned to us then you will be liable for the return shipping fees and these will be deducted from any refund due.
- You must comply with all applicable laws and regulations of the country for which the products are destined. We will not be liable or responsible if you break any such law.
9. Price of products and delivery charges
- Where to find the price for the product. The price of the product (which includes VAT) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We use our best efforts to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 9.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
- We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
- What happens if we got the price wrong? It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any products provided to you.
- The price of the products does not include delivery charges. Our delivery charges are as advised to you during the check-out process, before you confirm your order.
10. How to pay
- You can only pay for products using PayPal, a debit card or credit card. We accept the following cards: Visa Electron, Visa, Maestro, Forbrugsforeningen, Dankort, MasterCard, Amex, DinersClub, Discover, UnionPay, JCB
- Any contract for purchases made through the website will be with Daisy’s Nail Company Ltd, using the trading style The GelBottle Inc. The GelBottle Inc must receive payment of the whole of the price for the products that you order before your order can be accepted, and the contract formed.
- To redeem a gift card you must first open an account. The value of the gift card is only redeemable in products. Any unspent funds will show on your account as a credit.
- Payment for the products and all applicable delivery charges is in advance. We will charge your debit card or credit card before we dispatch your products.
11. If there is a problem with the product
