Shipping
Not interested in paying for shipping on one lipstick? I hear you!
Shipping one lipstick can be costly on the customer, so we created an economic alternative. Hold shipping, or open box ordering. We hold on to your items until YOU are ready to ship. This way we help the environment by reducing carbon emissions, save the customer shipping fees, and secure that one of a kind item for you! We have customers who order beauty items weekly and use this system to their benefit!
When you place an order but you know you'll likely order more in the near future and don't want to pay shipping twice, select the shipping rate : HOLD Standard Shipping - Please hold my order. (Choose this if you'd like to place more orders and only pay shipping once). You will be paying up front for shipping.
Without getting too technical, we have an app installed that will find all open orders for each customer and merge them into one and automatically refund extra shipping fees and if you spend over $250, it will refund all shipping fees! YAHOO!
Here's how it works now:
1. Place an order and select the shipping rate HOLD Standard Shipping.
Do NOT select pick up. You will need to pay upfront for shipping.
2. We will hold the items you purchase, they are considered sold. When placing subsequent orders, choose the same Hold Shipping Rate, the shipping fee will be refunded automatically.
3. You can place multiple additional orders and we'll hold all of your items together until you've reached the $250 minimum purchase if you'd like.
These orders cannot be canceled.

LAB is not liable for lost, stolen, or damaged orders. For all tracking inquires please contact the shipping company directly.
If you fail to pick up your package from your post office and it gets returned to LAB, you have the option of a) having the package shipped back to you once again at your expense, or b) having the purchase price refunded to you, shipping costs paid on the initial shipment are non refundable.

LAB reserves the right to cancel any orders at our discretion.
A note on shipping. LAB is a small independent business. We do NOT profit on any shipping charges. Quite the opposite. LAB runs mostly on a consignment/profit sharing basis, thus we often go out of pocket for shipping when we give it away for free. As LAB grows, we will be conscious of shipping costs and re-assess yearly.
For purchases over $250 shipping is free to Canada and the United States. The shipping rate for orders under $250 within Canada, USA, and international orders are calculated at checkout.

All orders over $500 must add Ship Insure Shipping Protection during checkout.
