Common questions

1. How can I exchange or return a product?

If for some reason you are not satisfied with your purchase, you may return it up to 14 consecutive days after the date of delivery.

To return an order, please contact Customer Service, specifying the order details and if you want to exchange or return the product(s).

If the customer has purchased any product as part of a promotional campaign and has therefore benefited from an offer, the customer must return not only the paid product(s) but also the offer assigned. This also applies to promotional packs. Returns of incomplete, damaged products without original packaging or signs of use will not be accepted. Returns will not be accepted for products with an explicit indication that the expiration date is approaching.

After proceeding as directed for the return or exchange, you will receive a refund or a new product. In case of return, payments will be refunded to you no later than 14 days from the date we receipt the return at our facilities. The refund will be made using the same payment method used in the initial transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise by you.

Orders returned on charge will not be accepted.

According to each country’s customs authority, random inspections of goods may take place. Although fees are not often applied, such review may result in the taxation of your order and may also delay delivery. This charge is the responsibility of each country’s customs and is not applied by mail or NITACARE. All payments of customs fees or any other type of tax are the sole responsibility of the customer. If you refuse to pay this tax, your order will return to us.
