“Palettes and brush sets”

Melissa A.
6/1/21

I've ordered from BH Cosmetics twice... I own maybe 5 or 6 eye shadow palettes and 3 blush palettes and a set of brushes and have been extremely happy with all of my purchases (along with a purchase from Ulta which is where I found the brand originally). This makeup is reasonably priced and looks good on... there are a variety of shades/colors and I had zero problem with shipping/tracking/delivery. I'm glad I ordered before seeing all these reviews as I'm very satisfied and if I had seen these reviews first, I'd never tried them out. IBY Beauty is another fave... just because make up is more expensive, doesn't make it better quality.

“FRAUD: Never Received”

May D.
2/23/21

Scam. Ordered from BH Cosmetics official website but never received my makeup palette. Package was sitting in another state for 2 weeks. I disputed the charge and got my money back. Do not order from here. They just want your money and not to see you happy. Screenshots were taken February 23,2021.

I had to contact my bank today because this company charged my credit card for an order I never placed on Instagram. They also ignore all my messages.

In September my credit card information was used to purchase items through BH cosmetics. I immediately shut down my card and processed a fraudulent charge form with my bank. BH Cosmetics argued my case, saying they had delivered the items to me. They did not: they sent the items to a Cargo shipping company in Westminster, CA (I do not live in that state, nor have I ever been to Westminster). The receipt shows that the order was processed in CDT, whereas I live in MST. They email address is also fake, but their argument was that all of this matched with my information. SCAM SCAM SCAM.

I ordered from this company on a Monday. I said it was 3 to 5 business days shipping (By the 5th day I should have it). Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday (FedEx ships on Saturdays)... 5 business days total and no package received by the end of the day. Sunday passes (Weekend so no shipping obviously) and by the end of Monday still no package. This made 6 business days total after making my order. I emailed the company because 1 I never received a tracking number and 2 I was supposed to receive my package in 5 days and nothing. Their response was "Please allow 3-5 business day for shipping". What kind of response is that?... I was writing because the had a problem with shipping. We went on back and forth and they finally shipped my package (2 days) after arguing with them. My package go to me a week after the 2 days of arguing. 3-5 business days never happened. It took 3 weeks for me to actually receive my package. I will NEVER order from them again. Horrible customer service and horrible shipping. I order thing online all the time and had never had this problem. DO NOT ORDER FROM BH COSMETICS!

I spent $33 CAD overall on bhcosmetics, I was excited for the brushes I ordered to come in and plus they gave me an eyeshadow palette because of promotions BUT it took almost two weeks for the items to arrive and when it finally did, I was asked to pay $14 of taxes on something thats valued at less than $33. Im incredibly speechless by this, definetly WILL NOT order from them again.

I ordere the ultimate artistry palette, received it with 2 broken shadows, no big deal just have to send in the pics and they send a new one. But then the new one also had a broken shadow, one of the same ones from the original palette I received, so I call, only wanting a COMPLETE PALETTE WITH NO BROKEN SHADOWS but apparently that was too hard for the customer service woman to understand and she just kept repeating the same thing, and said if I get the THIRD palette and it's broken then I can't return it again

This is my 2nd order from BH. I must be a glutton for punishment. I thought the slow shipping on my first order was a fluke and gave them a second chance. Well, never again!

I placed the order on 12/22/18, and paid for shipping (same day I placed an order from a competitor with free shipping). I received an update email from BH on the 26th saying my package has shipped. I check the tracking on USPS today and it still says only the label had been printed, and it hasn't arrived at USPS yet. They are lying about shipping! According to an email answer I got from customer service today, my package was shipped today "Please allow the full 2-8 business days for your package to be delivered"! So why did the system say it had shipped 3 days ago and still says it's in transit?! USPS still says only the label was printed and the package hasn't been shipped yet... I received the competitor's delivery yesterday.

I don't believe I fell for this again. Probably won't get here until after New Year's. This is a very irresponsible company who couldn't care less about it's customers. Shipping that takes this long should be free. I'm through. They've lost my business.

That attached photo shows the product I received.

Tip for consumers:
Don't buy from this business! It takes way too long to receive your order. It's not worth the wait.

Products used:
I wouldn't know. They haven't even shipped my order yet.

I have ordered a lot of products from BH Cosmetics and have not had any bad experiences until recently. Since I have ordered from them in the past I know how long it takes to ship to my location. When a week went by without a tracking number I just decided to request a refund. I sent an email and received a generic response. I called, and was told they were on lunch and I would get a call within half an hour. I decided to elevate my concerns to paypal and once I did that I finally received a callback. I was told FedEx misplaced it but was going to ship it and that I should receive it the following week. I told them I was no longer interested in the product and just wanted a refund to which they replied I would have to receive and send back the order. First of all the order was never processed through FedEx, that was just something I was told so they could keep my money. Secondly they handled that horribly, if they would have admitted they messed instead of lying to cover up their negligence then it might not have been such an issue. After I told her they were responsible for getting their items and refunding my money as quickly as possible, she said she was going to callback (never got a callback). Once I saw they were going to try to keep my money and still send the items regardless of the email traffic and phone calls I had to call my bank to dispute the payment. Products are great, service is horrible. I honestly wish I did not have this experience because I love their makeup but I refuse to support a business who does not value the customer or own up to their mistakes.

Stay away from BH Comestics! Long story short, they sent me a damaged package. I emailed them, they agreed to replace the damaged items. (The 10 piece sculpt and blend brush set and the HD brow pencil). All the other items were fine. That was a month ago! I waited 2 weeks and no package came! I tracked the package and UPS can't seem to pick up on it. I emailed them back and they claimed the package was either lost or stolen and that they will send another one out. They then sent me an email with a new tracking number and claimed it's on its way to me. Shortly after that email, they sent another email claiming the brush set are out of stock. So instead, they're just going to refund me $5! I also paid more than $5 for those brushes. I jumped on their website immediately and the brush set is not out of stock! I was able to throw it into cart! What a disappointment! They lied to me! I also believe they never sent the 2nd package, but claimed it was lost or stolen when I asked about it! Never doing business with them again! I emailed them back about the brushes that were, "Out of stock". And told them they can keep their $5! Cheap products, but cheaper customer service!

I ordered many products when they were having a sale which was on September 2nd. After about 2 and a half weeks, still no tracking information. I emailed Them and they responded saying to allow up to 8 business days to receive tracking information, which I did. Still nothing. I went to their Instagram page and left a comment, and they replied "hey love, please Dm us your order number we can help!"

After doing that, they said to check my email from their billing department. They CANCELLED my order for no reason and in the email it stated "bh is not obligated to give a reason for cancelling your order" and other Bs...

THEN, it gets worse. In the cancellation email they sent me it states, "please allow 2 to 7 business days for a full refund on your card", I wait the FULL 7 business days, and still no refund. I then email the billing department, and its been 3 days now with no response! They are definitely ignoring me! Plus when I call their office number I can never get through to a representative.

One of the worst experiences ever, they literarily just scam people.

My theory is that they have all these sales in which people spend a lot of Money, and do not have enough products to supply their customers with so they cancel their orders with no refund!

Last thought, I really hope this doesn't happen to anyone else. It sucks to be scammed out of your hard earned money :(

I have been ordering from them for quite a while now, when new items of there ( not calibration) comes out they ship 2 day priority for the regular price. Regular order take 5 days to process and then finally ships and you receive it in another 5 to 10 business days. Carli Bybel deluxe palette fiasco is another reason to stay away. After three hours of trying to get the order to go through i figured out why it wasn't. Ebates had a 5% return on bh cosmetics which a lot of people use so in turn this would make the company lose money so After 3 Hours of trying to pace the order with ebates I turned around and erased my computer history and cookies and tried directly through there sites and bam they order went through. So instead of them being honest with there customers, they ignored it, forced people to call to get there refund back and didnt give anyone any compensations for there time and headaches that they received due to this fiasco. These cosmetic companies get away with it because it feeds on the addiction of the buyers, so no matter what they do wrong the buyer craves it so it doesn't matter. If your like me and enjoy stuff but value your time and money and self respect more than you need to start demanding better from the places you put your money into.

Tip for consumers:
Stay on top of them and demand better customer service if needed and ask for a manager if you are not satisfied. do not forget to ask for names and where the call center is at or from.

I ordered a set of brushes that was supposed to be a Secret Santa gift for Christmas. I waited two weeks and have not received any shipping info so i contacted them where they told me to rest assured they have sent out my package with FedEx and that FedEx was experiencing some delays. A week and a half from there I email them again because i have NOT received any updates about my package from FedEx. Turns out FedEx also have not received my package from bhcosmetics. And then two days before my party I receive an email from them only to be told that the item i ordered WAS OUT OF STOCK! How can you tell a customer their item is shipped out, wait almost a WHOLE month and then tell them the item they ordered is out of stock -__- SO RIDICULOUS AND DISAPPOINTING! I will not being ordering anything from them again. Just based on customer service, im giving them 1 star, 0 if i could.

I placed my order on 12/8/2018. Here we are 12/28/2018 and STILL NO ORDER! I have called soooo many times and have waited for 25min+ and no one answers then it will ring like it's going to connect to somebody and it just goes quiet. I called fedex and usps they stated that they had an insufficient address so the package was sent back to bhcosmetics, the package was sent back to them on 12/15/2018, I received a Vague email back stating that they have confirmed that the package was being sent back to them and they will contact me once it does. Well since then I have sent countless emails with no response back, I have asked them to send my items or give me a refund and they do not respond. I will NEVER order from this company again they absolutely SUCK!

On september 16th I ordered a palette and an eyeliner. After 7 days (24th)I received the invoice and I noticed a mistake in my address so I immediately sent them an email telling them the right address. They answered me thanking me for the correction and that they were having a huge number of shipments and orders and that I had to wait between 4-7 days. In the next 2 days I received another invoice and I saw that they didn't correct my address so I wrote them an email and they answered me that my order was already sent and that I didn't inform then in time, after few minutes I received another email where was written that the order was changed to complete. The only mistake in my address was the number of the house but the postcode and everything was correct and in my street there's no flat like mine with the same name! I wrote them 3 emails and 2 requests on their website but nothing and no answer. Yesterday I sent them an email very upset telling them that I want my money back and that this is not absolutely the properly way to treat customers! I'm still waiting for an answer but nothing. Obviously after this bad experience I'll never order something with them again!

Ok here is an update to what I wrote earlier about my experience with my BH Cosmetics order. So I finally received my order after 7 weeks and after paying the customs 30 euros I opened the package and there was 6 of the items I ordered ( I order 16 items) and someone else's order information slip. There was details of this person, what they ordered and the tracking code to their order. Just out of curiosity I checked where this order info was supposed to go and it said Canada. Erm I am in Finland. I have never been so furious with any company in my life, BH Cosmetics is a JOKE! So I have emailed again many times and have waited for an answer about 2 weeks now. Also I can see that the items I most wanted are now out of stock, 1 of them being a limited editions one! If they ever get back to me I know already what they are going to say - that they will refund my money etc. In any other case I would accept that at this point as I am so done with them and just want this whole mess to over. BUT I paid 52 dollars for the shipping fees + 30 euros for the customs so I really dont think it's fair if they refund the money because then I will lose the shipping fee + customs money. I honestly cant believe they have so so so awful customer service, it's unreal! PLEASE DO NOT BUY FROM BH COSMETICS if you are an international customer! I do not recommend that!

Tip for consumers:
DO NOT BUY FROM BH COSMETICS!!! DON'T DO THAT!

SHIPPING TOOK FOREVER, THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE, PRODUCTS MISSING...
December 29th, 2017

I am so glad I found this page as I have been SO frustrated with the company! I ordered in November and shipping took 6 weeks to Finland, I also paid for shipping 52 dollars. I ordered bunch of stuff from them but the reason I ordered from them was to get the Cosmetics Bag they sell. So I found out from the website 4 weeks later (from the order date) that they haven't even sent the Cosmetics bag and no it was never out of stock etc. I was upset when I found out that and contacted them about 5 times with email before anyone got back to me. I wrote that I really want to get the item and I have already paid for it + the shipping fee for the item. Once they did get back to me they asked me to send a photo of the order?! Well I haven't even received the order. Plus they said they can refund me or put the money to my BH account. I wrote back to them saying thay it is their mistake that they haven't sent the item so I dont want refund etc - I want the item shipped to me ASAP. Took again forever to them to answer and they send the exact same email saying they can refund me or give the BH account credit?! I was furious and wrote back to them that I want the item - and then nothing. I have written them about 8 times now and they still haven't answered! I am livid! Never ever have I had such an awful customer service experience anywhere! And believe me I have had many many horrible experiences in the past! Also I have been working in customer service myself about 15 years so I know this is unacceptable. Like come on seriously! Never again ordering from them.

I think it's ridiculous that someone who had a problem with me was able to get information about my purchase history. An employee couldn't find anything through my name or the two emails this person gave them but emailed her a link which showed her past shopping carts I made and when my card was declined which she used to try and publicly humiliate on YouTube and Facebook. All and had to say was that I was ordering stuff for her and that she hadn't received it yet and she wanted to make sure it wasn't lost. Idfk you'd think when she gave them my personal info and they couldn't find anything that would be enough which I think is BS bc what I do is NO ONE's business. I'm just really upset for the carelessness and lack of sympathy from BH. I've emailed them asking why my info was given out and they have only responded once saying "I'm sorry this happened to
You what's the order number?" After replying back over a week ago I still haven't received a response. Wish it was as easy for me as it was for the person getting my info.

It's a shame the product is so good, yet the shipping is an absolute JOKE. They're using FedEx Smartpost. USPS is absolute crap when it comes to actually deliver the package. IDK why FedEx thought it was a good idea to partner with them, but it wasn't. FedEx is good with their part, but USPS literally takes their sweet time when delivering. My package has been sitting at USPS for almost a week. A WEEK. GET BETTER SHIPPING! Look at your reviews and the amount of complaints. IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF THE SHIPPING.

I placed an ordered this afternoon and right after hitting submit they gave me a confirmation number and details about my package including the shipping details (WHICH they did not go over before purchase) stating that it would take 4-6 business days for the order to process and another 3-4 days for it to arrive. Seeing as this would be cutting it too close for Christmas ( it was supposed to be a Xmas gift) I emailed them and asked to please cancel my order immediately. I did this in less than 10 minutes after submitting the order. I received a reply HOURS later asking me to please be sure to review the orders carefully before submitting them as they DO NOT cancel orders. How can they not cancel orders if IT HAS NOT EVEN SHIPPED OR BEEN PROCESSED since it takes 4 - 6 business days? To make it worse, according to their rep I am to wait for the package to arrive and DENY the delivery so that way they may refund me and from what Ive been reading, it can be a whole other month before I see the package at my front door. I honestly wish there was a way to screenshot their email and paste it on here. This will be the last time I purchase from them. EVER.
