FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Orders & Payment
What payment methods do you accept?+
Aulea can accommodate GCash, Maya, bank transfer, and Cash on Delivery (COD) — but Phase 1 only shows the methods actually connected and operational at checkout, not everything the brand could theoretically accept. Which methods are live at launch is still being confirmed (spec §18).
Do you offer Cash on Delivery?+
Yes — COD nationwide is intended, subject to courier availability and coverage in your area. Because COD carries real risk for a new brand (mistaken or bogus orders, return-to-sender costs), orders may go through a short confirmation step before dispatch — a quick check, not a hurdle (spec §19–20).
Can I change or cancel my order?+
[Pending client input on order cancellation policy.]
Shipping
Do you ship nationwide?+
Yes, including provinces, via J&T Express, Lalamove, LBC. Fees depend on your location, courier, and arrangement.
Is there free shipping?+
Free shipping applies on orders ₱400 and above, subject to courier arrangement — not an unconditional guarantee unless confirmed at checkout.
How long does shipping take?+
[Delivery timelines pending client input.]
Returns
Can I return a product?+
Opened cosmetics are commonly non-returnable on hygiene grounds under the Consumer Act of the Philippines (RA 7394) and DTI rules. The exact policy — what qualifies, timeframes, how to request one — is still being confirmed with the client and will not be published as a generic template. See Shipping & Returns.
Product & Ingredients
Are Aulea products suitable for sensitive skin?+
Aulea's products are generally intended for all skin types, and the brand itself started from the founder's own experience with sensitive skin. Specific per-product suitability claims are only published once the client supplies and confirms them — see docs/compliance-notes.md.
Where can I find the full ingredient list?+
Ingredient lists come directly from photos of each product's actual label. They'll appear on each product page once the client supplies the label photos — nothing is invented in the meantime.
Is FDA CPN information available?+
FDA Cosmetic Product Notification (CPN) numbers pending. Do not publish without them — see docs/compliance-notes.md.
