I recently made a purchase from this website. It stated that the product delivery would be sent within a week. I placed my order with them on the 10th April 2020. Today is the 29th April and my orders are not here yet. I've sent an enquiry and have been told to contact the Custom office of my country(Singapore) if I do not receive my orders by the 15th May. This is truly ABSURD! I shop online all the time, this is my first unpleasant experience. I thought this company would be in India or Africa, but it is in UK. The customer service is APPALLING! I never ever post a negative review about a company online, this is the first time ever. I do hope that their customer service will take a reparative action and solve this issue, will update you guys if they do this. Otherwise, if you are not in UK, please save your money/time/stress and shop elsewhere.

I’ve used it several times. Delivery is taking forever at the moment, about 2 weeks, but only to be expected I think.

goldie04 · 28/04/2020 18:49

I've ordered from them a lot and never had a problem. Items arrive within a few days. (I am in the UK)

Many companies are taking longer to process orders because of the current situation. Maybe take this in to account?

Fiddlersgreen · 28/04/2020 18:49

I use them often, every few months or so.
Never had any issues here in the U.K.

chipsandpeas · 28/04/2020 18:51

used them a few times with no issues

TitsInAbsentia · 28/04/2020 18:52

I use them all the time (in the UK) so can only assume that it is due to a mixture of covid and customs. Isn't there anywhere similar based in Singapore that you could buy from in future?

Shelley54 · 28/04/2020 18:54

I use them a lot - got a package this week. Took over a week to be despatched and arrived 48hrs later (UK). It sounds like a problem with your customs doesn't it?

Sexnotgender · 28/04/2020 18:58

Used them loads and no issues. Delivery is taking longer right now though.

FredaFox · 28/04/2020 19:45

Yes used them quite a lot, not had any issues

adagio · 28/04/2020 19:49

Used them quite a few times and no issues - would expect delays due to COVID at the moment (plus no one can see me apart from low red video conferencing so I’ve stopped using my ‘nice’ make up and beauty products 😂)

TheCanterburyWhales · 28/04/2020 19:51

They are my go-to beauty and skincare site. Never had a problem though haven't ordered during the Covid crisis, and I've only used LF- UK and LF- Italy.

terriblyangryattimes · 28/04/2020 19:55

Also never had an issue with LF. I think given it's an overseas order you should wait a little longer, taking into the current conditions.

thistimeofyear · 28/04/2020 19:57

Have you checked with the Customs office? Are there restrictions with international mail coming into the country at the moment. Are you in lockdown? I wouldn’t expect anything to be normal at the moment. It’s not necessarily the company’s fault at all.

DollysDrawers · 28/04/2020 20:01

Also used them a lot with no issues. Hope you get it sorted.

DontRushSlowDownn · 28/04/2020 20:04

I've used them a few times and never had any problems. I think things are taking longer to be delivered at the moment.

Cherryblossomsnow · 28/04/2020 20:27

Well there is a pandemic occurring right now(!).....international post is severely delayed. A parcel sent from NZ to me on the other side of the world has yet to show after about 6 weeks. Normally it would be 10 days. I think lower your expectations.

Cherryblossomsnow · 28/04/2020 20:29

Oh and to add I have used them before and they were good.

enjoyingscience · 28/04/2020 20:29

Everything is taking a while now. Maybe rather than have make-up shipped halfway round the world, go somewhere local if you want it quickly?

Lifeaback · 28/04/2020 20:37

I’ve ordered from them multiple times and have never had an issue with them. If you weren’t aware there’s a global pandemic going on currently so I think it’s only fair to expect things are taking longer than usual... especially international postage as there’s likely to be far less cargo/freight shipments and flights taking place.

CuppaZa · 28/04/2020 20:40

Used them many, many times. Always reliable and prompt service. I would imagine, as with many businesses, dispatch and delivery may take a little while longer at the moment. Although, you are experiencing hire a delay.

Cherryblossomsnow · 28/04/2020 20:41

I don't want to come across as too rude but I really struggle with posts like this OP. I mean seriously?? This pandemic has given me a real insight into how people behave. It think it's totally unfair of you to rubbish a company under these circumstances. This company employs people. Just think things through a bit before you act maybe??

missmoon · 28/04/2020 21:01

I use them a lot, and they are usually very quick with no problems.

Cuddling57 · 28/04/2020 21:02

Yes I think they are normally very good.

TinselTortoise · 28/04/2020 21:04

I have also used look fantastic and they are normally very quick with dispatch and delivery. I also subscribe to a couple of monthly beauty boxes that are currently taking weeks to arrive but hey ho we are in unusual times so I wouldn't and haven't complained.

VeganCow · 28/04/2020 21:07

Also used them lots and never a problem. Usually order around Christmas and stuff always comes on time

TableNiner · 28/04/2020 21:08

Used them a lot and no issues (UK)
