If I can give this website a zero review, I would! I ordered an expensive skin product from lovely skin, the Eau Thermal Avene Retrinal 0.05, which I am very familiar with and have bought from my dermatologist many times. I opened the box after the 30 day return policy, because I was in the process of finishing another "nighttime" skin product first. After I opened the box last night in an attempt to use this, I realized that the pump did not work at all. I must have pumped it 100 times to no avail, and asked my husband to try it too. This morning, he opened the canister to look inside, and we noticed that there was no tube connected to the pump. Anyway, I called lovely skin to tell them I wanted to exchange the product for a different bottle of Avene Retrinal. This should be no big deal, as I was sent a defective bottle that did not work. The customer service representative, Sabrina, told me that the pump should work if I try pumping it 20-30 times. After I explained to her that I sat there pumping this thing at least 100 times last night, and that I have never had this trouble with the pump before, Sabrina blamed ME for breaking the bottle. Her explanation was that my husband and I broke the bottle, which is an "airless" pump, and that they could not exchange the product because we "broke" it by trying to figure out what was wrong with it. It came broken! What a racket. This philosophy of this store is clearly that the customer is ALWAYS WRONG... STAY AWAY!

Update: It was only after I wrote this review that Lovely Skin begrudgingly offered to exchange the bottle, at my own shipping cost. To avoid the expense of this, and after googling the issue, I was able to fix the problem on my own. Still not going to shop with them!
