Policies, Terms & Conditions

Last Updated: September 9, 2026

Membership Tiers, Terms & Benefits

Continuous Memberships (Basic & VIP): Our Basic and VIP Memberships are ongoing, recurring agreements. Your card on file will be automatically billed every 30 days to maintain active access, member pricing, and ongoing benefits.

Promotional 30-Day Membership: Any promotional or limited-run 30-Day Membership strictly expires 30 days from the date of purchase. It does not auto-renew and is separate from continuous tier perks.

Basic Membership Benefits: Grants access to standard member retail pricing, base-level virtual resources, a single customized Skin Blueprint per cycle, and standard sample products (when available).

VIP Membership Benefits: Grants priority scheduling, maximum member discounts on advanced retail items, exclusive access to join the members-only website, ongoing adjustments to your Skin Blueprint, and exclusive membership "freebies." Freebies may include complimentary mini-services, sample products, and a complimentary full-size product (subject to strict availability; on-hand stock is limited and distributed only upon the completion of a full-amount, paid skin method/service).

Service Recovery Clause: Regardless of your membership tier, if a product exchange is requested under a membership benefit, any professional skin services, advanced methods, or treatments that have already been performed during that cycle must be paid back to the business owner in full at their standard, non-member retail rate before the exchange is finalized.

Complimentary & Sample Products

Shipping & Tax Liability: Any products provided to the client on a complimentary, sample, or "free" basis (including membership freebies and promotional items) are provided at no cost for the item itself. However, the client assumes full financial responsibility for any and all associated shipping and handling costs, as well as applicable local, state, or federal taxes. These fees will be strictly at the client's expense and must be satisfied prior to shipment or distribution.

Strict Non-Refundable Policy

All sales, fees, and deposits are final. We operate on an Exchange-Only policy for eligible retail products. The following are strictly non-refundable:

• Services & Consultations: All completed skin methods, advanced treatments, and 15, 30 or 60-minute skin consultations.
• Shipping & Handling: All shipping costs for delivered orders.
• Affiliate Products: Any products purchased from any affiliate program links are subject to the affiliate platform's independent return rules and cannot be refunded or exchanged directly through our business.
• Promotional Items: All sale items, promotional products, or custom skin curation bundles.

Third-Party Vouchers & Promotional Deals

Voucher Status as Promotional Certificates: Any vouchers, deals, or treatments purchased through third-party platforms (such as Groupon) are treated strictly as promotional gift certificates. They hold no cash value and are applicable only to the specific, basic promotional service listed on the voucher.

Strict Freebie & Benefit Exclusion: Third-party promotional vouchers do not qualify for, grant access to, or unlock any continuous membership perks, membership "freebies," complimentary full-size products, samples, or custom Skin Blueprints. Membership benefits are exclusively reserved for active, full-paying Basic and VIP members.

No Double-Dipping or Stacking: Vouchers cannot be combined, stacked, or used in conjunction with any other active studio promotions, membership discounts, or packages. Only one third-party voucher may be redeemed per new client.

Upgrades: If a voucher holder wishes to upgrade their promotional session to one of our advanced skin methods (such as THE DETOX SKIN METHOD or THE BRIGHTENING SKIN METHOD), the client must pay the full retail price difference at the time of the service.

Non-Refundable Booking Deposits & Discount Codes

Appointment Security: All appointments are held with a strictly non-refundable deposit of 50% of the service fee to secure your spot on the schedule.

100% Off Codes: If a client receives a code for 100% off, the 50% deposit is still required upfront. The discount will be applied after the appointment is successfully completed.

Rescheduling: If you need to change your appointment, your deposit may be transferred to a new date only if the request is made at least 48 hours prior to your scheduled session. Late cancellations or no-shows forfeit the deposit entirely.

Credit Card Hold / Card on File

Authorization Agreement: To secure your 30-day membership, booking profile, and scheduled sessions, a valid credit card must be kept securely on file.

Billing Consent: By checking the box below, you authorize the business to charge this card on file for your 30-day membership fee, outstanding balances for services rendered, or any applicable late cancellation/no-show fees.

Photo & Media Release Agreement

Consent to Casual & Clinical Photography: By signing below, I grant permission to the business to take digital photographs and/or videos of my face and treatment areas. I understand that these images may be used for the following purposes:

• Clinical Tracking: To document skin progression, treatment efficacy, and before-and-after transformations for my confidential client file.
• Marketing & Education: To be shared on social media platforms, the business website, and educational marketing materials to demonstrate treatment results.

Privacy & Personal Identity Anonymity Options: I understand that every effort will be made to protect my privacy. If requested, my eyes, tattoos, or distinguishing features can be digitally cropped out or blurred.

No Compensation: I acknowledge that these photos/videos are taken voluntarily and that I will receive no financial compensation or royalties for their use.

Ownership: I agree that all photographs and video footage taken by the provider are the sole property of the business.

Four-Day Submission Requirement: Your photo release must be provided at least four days (96 hours) before your scheduled appointment. Appointments will be rejected without a completed release form, with no exceptions. If the photo release is not provided prior to this four-day window, the appointment cannot be performed and you may be charged 50% of the scheduled service fee, or the fee may be retained and applied toward a future appointment. Additionally, your appointment may be changed or rescheduled if the owner cannot finish the analysis form before your appointment is scheduled.

Right to Revoke & Cost Liability:

• Notice: You may revoke social media marketing consent at any time by sending a written request to [Your Email].
• Future Posts & Archives: Upon receipt of written revocation, we will remove online digital posts within 14 business days. Revocation does not apply to printed materials, physical displays, or historical posts published prior to the request date.
• Paid Campaigns & Production Costs: If a client requests the immediate removal or deletion of active media that is currently part of an active paid advertisement, print campaign, or published marketing asset, the client agrees to reimburse the business for all direct out-of-pocket expenses required to alter, take down, or replace the asset (including active ad spend changes, graphic re-design fees, or re-printing costs).

Appointment Cancellation & No-Show Policy

24-Hour Cancellation Window: Your appointments are very important to us and are reserved especially for you. We kindly require a minimum of 24 hours' notice strictly for any appointment cancellations. Please note that the 24-hour cancellation window is only to cancel the appointment itself, and does not override the separate four-day (96-hour) requirement for providing your photo release.

Late Cancellations & No-Shows: Any appointment cancelled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours' notice, or any missed appointment (no-show), will forfeit the booking deposit entirely and be charged 100% of the scheduled service fee to the card on file. No refunds will be issued under any circumstances.

Emergency Exceptions: We understand that true emergencies happen. To waive the late cancellation or no-show fee, valid documentation or proof of the emergency (e.g., a medical note, accident report, or official documentation) must be submitted via email within 48 hours of the missed appointment for review.

Proprietary Skin Blueprint & Non-Transferability Policy

Customized Skin Blueprints: I understand that any skin analysis, product recommendation, or treatment plan provided by this business is a highly customized "Skin Blueprint" designed explicitly for my unique skin type, barrier health, and specific conditions.

Strict Non-Transferability: This custom blueprint and its recommendations are strictly for personal use only. Clients are explicitly prohibited from sharing, copying, or distributing their personalized routine, product selections, or treatment guidance to anyone else for their use.

No Alternate Liability: Because skincare formulations and advanced methods react differently to every individual, applying your custom blueprint to another person's skin is highly dangerous. The business and its owner accept absolutely zero liability for adverse reactions, skin damage, or counter-indications that occur if a client shares their proprietary recommendations or products with a third party.

B.A.B.E. WITHIN Online & Virtual Recording Policy

Intellectual Property & Copyright: All virtual sessions, webinars, online consultations, and digital workshops hosted by B.A.B.E. WITHIN are the exclusive intellectual property of the Company. This includes all audio, video, slide decks, chat logs, and digital handouts provided during the session.

Unauthorized Recording Prohibited: Clients, attendees, and participants are strictly prohibited from recording (via screen capture, audio recording, software extensions, or external devices) any portion of a live virtual session without prior, explicit written consent from B.A.B.E. WITHIN.

Distribution Restrictions: Any recording provided to you by B.A.B.E. WITHIN after a session is for your individual, personal, or internal educational use only. You may not upload, repost, share, or distribute any part of a session recording to public platforms (including YouTube, social media, or public drive links) or sell it as your own content. Unauthorized distribution constitutes a violation of copyright law and will result in immediate termination of access without a refund, alongside potential legal action.

Participant Privacy Consent: Live digital masterclasses or group workshops may be recorded for archive and promotional purposes. By unmuting your microphone or showing your face during the interactive segments, you give B.A.B.E. WITHIN full rights to include that footage in future paid courses or marketing. Attendees who wish to remain completely anonymous must keep their video feed off and submit questions using an alias in the chat box.

LEGAL WARNING: Home Studio & Private Residence Policy

Scheduled Appointments Only: Services are provided out of a private residential home studio. Access to the owner's home is strictly limited to confirmed, scheduled appointment times only.

Zero Tolerance for Unannounced Visits: Clients and individuals are strictly prohibited from arriving at, approaching, or waiting at the owner's private residence at any time without explicit, prior written approval from the business owner. Showing up unannounced or attempting to access the property outside of a confirmed appointment window is considered trespassing.

Legal Enforcement: Any violation of this private residence policy will result in immediate termination of your client relationship, absolute forfeiture of any deposits or membership fees, and may result in the involvement of local law enforcement for trespassing or harassment.

Enforcement & Legal Fees Clause

Responsibility for Legal Costs: In the event that the client breaches any part of these Terms & Conditions—including but not limited to unauthorized recording, illegal distribution of proprietary content, chargeback fraud, or violation of the cancellation policies—the client agrees to indemnify the business owner for all costs incurred to enforce this agreement.

Covered Expenses: This includes, without limitation, reasonable attorney fees, court costs, collection agency fees, and any legal disbursements necessary to protect the business, its brand, and its intellectual property.
