Extra samples to try are always appreciated. Especially with the cost of the products I am buying. They said I could use a 15% off coupon but it didn't apply to my order.

I love Dermstore in general

I love Dermstore in general, however, I was disappointed to see that a lot of the product reviews came from a third party site, and that site is one that gives free products in exchange for reviews. We all know that these reviews are not honest; it's common sense and it's also been demonstrated repeatedly in studies. I'd love to see real reviews, only, especially from verified purchasers.

I don’t like paying for shipping

I don’t like paying for shipping. The only reason I did today is the discount of the item I wanted.

Website

I like that they usually have the products I am looking tp buy. I don't like the website. It is not user friendly. I spend too much time trying to order because of it.

Never ordering from you again!

After I placed my order, I immediately received a message for $10 free shipping. I signed up, and soon found out I would be charged $20 per month for the service - ! When I called to cancel enrollment, they signed me up for a medical alert necklace at ANOTHER $20 per month. The only way I could unenroll was to CANCEL MY CHARGE CARD AND ORDER A NEW ONE! I am NEVER ordering from Dermstore AGAIN!

Ignored my order then cancelled it without offering to help resolve the issue

Placed an order on 17/04 and have received no further information - tracking number doesn’t work so I assume it hasn’t been dispatched yet but there’s no way to contact them via email and the automated chat just goes round in circles.
EDIT 28/04: My order has now been cancelled as apparently "the information provided has not met our security requirements" and they can't tell me which details failed to meet those requirements. Had I been informed of this issue at the time of placing the order I could have rectified whatever issue it was (credit card info I assume?). As it stands the item I wanted to purchase is now permanently out of stock. Hugely disappointed I wasn't contacted to resolve the issue in a timely manner. Total scam.

It was easy to order, but when I checked out there was no place to put the free shipping code. I also was unable to activate my 20% off code. How did I miss this?
