Site Experience FeedbackFeb 10, 2026
I was really happy to see that there was a 20% off sale, but a teeny bit disappointed when, upon checkout, both a code that was automatically applied and the 20% off sale mentioned didn't apply to my cart. Just a bit disappointing after thinking there'd be a discount, but I purchased something cheaper instead and am still pretty happy with my selection (it will also allow me to try some other products in the product line I'm interested in, so that's awesome!). Also, obviously, cart terms apply, so I understand that! Because I got a great sample of RS2 from Pevonia in my last order, I decided to order a product from that brand today--I hadn't heard of the brand before getting the sample, and was stunned by how incredible the cream was! So happy to have learned about it and grateful to have gotten the chance to sample it! One thing I didn't love (but this wasn't a big deal!) was that when you right click "More Details" in the "Choose Your Free Sample" area, and open that details link in a new tab, it has kind of a partially-broken webpage situation that doesn't allow you to see all of the product information. It does show some of it, like the description, but you can't see the ingredients. It's not a big deal, though, because I realized that you can see all of that in a popup window instead upon checkout, which is great! I just sometimes prefer a full window in a new tab to learn about products and to see (for example) how much the product would be if I were to purchase a full size in the future, but it's really a minor thing.
I think I mentioned in a previous survey some issues with re-entering an address during checkout after you receive a billing error message, and I think the person who reviewed it misunderstood and was possibly annoyed by that feedback, but it can be hard to tell tone from written communication--That, along with an offer to partially refund my last purchase which didn't end up happening (they didn't end up replying when I tried to take them up on that, as I thought that would be fair--It's a let down to pay for a product and then not be able to use the full amount), make me a little sad about the customer service experience. The sunscreen I ordered had squished out in-transit (causing some product loss). I kind of felt like maybe the person responding expected that I should just accept that, if they sent a replacement, I would probably get another that was missing product, or just accept the product loss with no replacement. However, I feel like a product with a hard plastic cap shouldn't frequently discharge product; that a sticker over the cap for transit should usually be enough, and I just kind of feel that my customer service interactions so far have made me feel bad, like I'm annoying the person or making things up, and that doesn't feel good. I definitely understand that things like shipping issues or product mess can be out of the business' control, but I think most people would want the full amount or a resolution. I love the products, prices, and efficacy of the ingredients, but something about the responses I've gotten seemed cold and irritated, and I wish they maybe cared more about making a new customer feel excited, welcomed, and happy, than annoyed that I politely inquired about the spillage, or that I wanted to give them a heads up about a checkout error. I started an online shop recently and I know how easy it is to run into those kinds of things, and would want to know if my customer was running into an error at a step of the checkout, so I thought they would be happy to learn about it. However, I could be misreading the tone completely! It just came across a bit cold the various times I got replies, and I thought I was genuinely giving polite heads up's or writing polite inquiries about the product issue. I am grateful for this alternative to Amazon, however, and am happy to support a small business! I hope this is more helpful feedback than annoying. :/
