Purpose
These general terms and conditions of sale aim to define the terms and conditions of sale of the products offered by ABSOLUTION (the “Products”) on the website https://www.absolution-cosmetics.com (the “Site”) to its customers (the “Buyers”), as well as the rights and obligations of the parties in this context.
They are accessible at any time via a direct link at the bottom of the Site.
The applicable version of the general terms and conditions of sale is the one available online on the Site on the date of the Buyer’s order. A copy is sent to the Buyer with the order confirmation.
These general terms and conditions of sale prevail over all other general or specific terms not expressly approved by ABSOLUTION.
Interaction with Payment Service Providers’ General Terms and Conditions
Payments made on the Site are managed by the payment service providers indicated on the Site (the “Payment Service Provider(s)”).
If applicable, the Buyer will contract directly with the Payment Service Provider of their choice regarding the implementation of these payments, by accepting its terms and conditions via a checkbox on the Site, in the order form and/or being redirected to the website operated by the Payment Service Provider to proceed with this acceptance.
If the Payment Service Provider refuses or terminates the Buyer’s subscription, the Buyer cannot/can no longer place an order through this method.
Conversely, the termination of the contractual relationship between the Buyer and ABSOLUTION results in the termination of the Buyer’s contract with the Payment Service Provider.
In case of contradiction between the Payment Service Provider’s general terms and conditions and these general terms and conditions of sale, the latter prevail.
The Buyer expressly authorizes ABSOLUTION to transmit all their payment instructions related to the payments made on the Site to the Payment Service Provider.

The Product concerned must be returned to ABSOLUTION under the following cumulative conditions:
-
In its original and complete packaging (including any accessory provided);
-
In a new, unused condition, without any deterioration or unsealing;
-
Without undue delay and no later than 14 calendar days following the Buyer’s communication of their intention to withdraw.
It must be accompanied by a copy of the corresponding purchase invoice. The Buyer is responsible in case of damage to the Product during its return to ABSOLUTION.
The Buyer will be reimbursed as soon as possible, and no later than 14 days from the effective receipt by ABSOLUTION of the withdrawal request, for all amounts paid for the order, minus any return costs, which remain the Buyer’s responsibility. ABSOLUTION reserves the right, however, to defer this reimbursement until the effective recovery of the concerned Products.
Legal Guarantees
The Buyer benefits from legal guarantees against non-conformity and hidden defects of the sold item, including defects resulting from the packaging of the Products.
If the Buyer finds that the Product delivered has a defect, non-conformity, or is damaged, they must inform ABSOLUTION at the contact details mentioned in the “Identification of ABSOLUTION” article, specifying the nature of the defect, non-conformity, or damage and providing any supporting evidence, including photographs or videos, or any other form expressly required by ABSOLUTION.
ABSOLUTION will then carry out an initial series of verifications of the Product and keep the Buyer informed of the results.
If necessary, ABSOLUTION will organize with a carrier of its choice the return arrangements, which it will communicate to the Buyer by any appropriate means. ABSOLUTION will bear the cost of this return.
ABSOLUTION will carry out the necessary further verifications and offer the Buyer a replacement Product where possible. If replacement is impossible, ABSOLUTION will reimburse the Buyer the full price paid for the Product and corresponding delivery costs, by any appropriate means, as soon as possible, and no later than 14 days from the date ABSOLUTION informs them of the impossibility to replace the Product.
Reminder of the Consumer Code provisions
The consumer has a period of two years from the delivery of the good to enforce the legal guarantee of conformity in case of a defect. During this period, the consumer only needs to establish the existence of the defect and not its date of occurrence.
When the sale contract provides for the supply of digital content or a digital service continuously for more than two years, the legal guarantee applies throughout the supply period. The consumer only needs to establish the existence of the defect affecting the digital content or service, not the date of its occurrence.
The legal guarantee of conformity obliges the professional, if necessary, to provide all updates necessary to maintain the conformity of the item.
The legal guarantee of conformity gives the consumer the right to repair or replace the item within thirty days following the request, without cost and without major inconvenience to them.
If the item is repaired under the legal guarantee of conformity, the consumer benefits from a six-month extension of the initial guarantee.
If the consumer requests repair but the seller imposes replacement, the legal guarantee of conformity is renewed for two years from the date of replacement.
The consumer may obtain a price reduction by keeping the item or terminate the contract with a full refund upon return of the item if:
-
The professional refuses to repair or replace the item;
-
Repair or replacement occurs after thirty days;
-
Repair or replacement causes major inconvenience for the consumer, notably when the consumer permanently bears the costs of collection or delivery of the non-conforming item, or bears the costs of installation of the repaired or replaced item;
-
Non-conformity persists despite the seller’s unsuccessful attempt to bring the item into conformity.
The consumer is also entitled to a price reduction or contract termination when the defect is so serious that immediate action is justified. The consumer is then not required to request repair or replacement first.
The consumer is not entitled to contract termination if the defect is minor.
Any period during which the item is immobilized for repair or replacement suspends the warranty that was running until the item is restored.
These rights result from Articles L. 217-1 to L. 217-32 of the French Consumer Code.
The seller acting in bad faith to hinder the implementation of the legal guarantee of conformity may face a civil fine of up to 300,000 euros, which may rise to 10% of average annual turnover (Article L. 241-5 of the Consumer Code). The consumer also benefits from the legal guarantee against hidden defects under Articles 1641 to 1649 of the Civil Code, for two years from the discovery of the defect. This guarantee allows a price reduction if the item is kept or a full refund upon return of the item.
