This category is targeted hard by counterfeiters, which means buyers look for evidence — and most mistakes here destroy the evidence.
Decanting or repackaging
A product that is not in its own container has lost its batch code, its dates and any way for a buyer to check it. Never do it.
Throwing away the carton
The codes and the dates live on it. It is part of what the buyer is buying.
Not showing the seal and the batch code
Two close-ups. In a category this targeted, showing is what sells.
Claiming a product treats or cures something
Nobody can support it, and it moves the product into a category needing a licence the seller must hold. Prohibited items.
Not saying when something was opened
"Used" is not enough. Say when, and how much is left as a percentage.
Ignoring the open-jar symbol
The small jar with a number and an M says how long the product is meant to last once opened. Show it.
Posting liquids in a padded envelope
One leak ruins the parcel and everything in it. Tape the cap, bag it, bag it again, box it. Packing beauty products.
The one that costs most
Not asking about the courier. Aerosols and flammables are restricted, and a refused parcel is a refund and a loss.
