I experienced the following on 3 different occasions:
- my packaged accidentally got shipped to Guam and took 8 weeks to reach me
- an expensive serum ($166 in a glass bottle) was packaged in a box without any padding and without any tape on the outside, so it arrived partially ripped open from the product banging around on the inside and the box was falling open on the bottom. Stopped ordering that product from them after that one.
- an order with multiple items shipped, but one item took 4 weeks to arrive. After 3 emails saying it was on the way, I called customer service and they said it was in stock, they just "forgot to send it". They were polite in the interaction, but after many issues, along with a 'survey' of our customer service where the response was quite defensive from them about the issues I've had, I decided that it wasn't worth the trouble and I didn't trust them.
I contacted Capital One, my credit card company and opened a dispute. Then miraculously, Dermstore responds and provides evidence (fabricated) that I had ordered the product. I persisted and showed proof (screenshot of my account) to Capital One saying that I did not have a subscription and that I couldn't have ordered it since I was in the hospital. Cap One closed that account and opened up a new one as it is concluded to be fraud. Then on September 28, I receive an email from Dermstore saying that Dermstore have tried to ship me the same product but were unable to (because the credit card that they have on file is no longer valid)! I write back in an email and let them know that I never had a subscription and thus didn't order it. They write back that they are sorry and send it from an email address that cannot accept incoming email!
Yesterday, I received a letter from Capital One saying that the June order is valid and that they are holding me responsible for the charge! When I go into my Dermstore account, there is no order for June, and yet I am responsible for paying for this non-existent order! After talking with Josh, Sarah (fraud), and Brianna (disputes) at Capital One, I am told that, while they understand, there is nothing that they can do despite my being a customer for over 14 years. Brianna pointed out that at least they blocked Dermstore from charging me more because they closed the original credit card account. I guess that zero liability fraud protection touted by Capital One in their commercials is untrue. According to Brianna, I can't even provide more evidence because Cap One closed the case.
Shipping out products that weren't ordered is a predatory practice that can be especially hurtful toward the elderly, people with dementia, or basically anyone who may not be able to stop these charges. I am perfectly aware and was still stuck with the charge for a product that I didn't order. Needless to say, Dermstore is engaging in fraudulent practices under the guise of incompetence (e.g., our systems are unable to process a return). And I'm shutting down my Capital One account, too, as they are colluding with Dermstore's fraud.
WRONG. It takes a full day to process, so now I'm getting my product Friday night, and I'm leaving town on Friday morning. If it's truly not 2-day shipping, then don't advertise it as such. What an awful service. Will not be ordering from them again.
With them. I ordered at the beginning of the month. It has a tracking number that's hasn't moved since July 11th. When I called Dermstore said I have to wait 14 days. I have also never heard of new logistics but supposedly my package is there. I feel like they assign a tracking number to your shipment so they can charge you but don't have the products available to ship. I will order directly from the manufacturer next time. I have never had a shipment take this long. Still awaiting my order! Update: I received my order and it arrived with some extra free products. I am happy now! But just beware the shipping time can take a long time! Ordered July 6th received on Saturday August 1st.

Both products arrived with a putrid smell. Now I have been purchasing this brand of SPF for years, so I know exactly what it smells like. Dermstore charged me $6.25 to return their smelly product! Bad service! The returned smelled just as bad! I'm never buying from Dermastore again.
I will not be using them again
To get a refund, including not answering their phone. They are horrible,
