The products falling under this category will have the shelf life indication stated on our website. 

We usually guarantee a shelf life of 1 month. If an item has a shorter shelf life than one month, it will be clearly stated on our website. This means that you as a customer are aware of the item’s shelf life and are therefore not allegeable for a refund or compensation. If your item has a shorter shelf life than one month upon the point of arrival and it was not stated on our website, you can contact us, and we can figure out a solution.
