Return shipping & fees
If you purchased the prepaid returns option (Checkout+): you will receive a free return label.
Without a prepaid option: a $10 return label fee will be deducted from your refund unless we provide a label for merchant reasons (e.g., wrong item, defective product).
If you choose your own carrier, use tracked postage — refunds are issued once we receive and inspect the return.
Damaged, defective or incorrect items
Report damaged, defective, or incorrect items within 14 days of delivery and include photos of the product and original packaging.
- We will arrange a replacement or issue a full refund where appropriate.
- We will typically refund original shipping and return shipping when the error is our responsibility.
- In many damaged/incorrect cases we will not require you to ship the item back — we’ll tell you the next steps after you contact us.
Refunds & processing time
Refunds are issued to the original payment method after we receive and inspect the return. Allow 5–10 business days for the refund to post to your account after we process the return (bank processing times may vary).
In select cases (for example items priced at $50 or less, first-time returns, or other merchant-discretion scenarios) we may issue a refund or store credit without requiring the item to be returned.
Exchanges
Exchanges are supported via the Returns Portal when instant-exchange is available, or by placing a new order once your return is processed. If you need help completing an exchange, contact support@us.thebodyshop.com.
Limits & abuse
We monitor return activity and reserve the right to limit or decline returns for suspected abuse (repeated excessive returns or patterns inconsistent with normal consumer behavior). Repeated abuse may result in account restrictions.
