Return & Exchange Policy

At Shifting Gaia™, we prioritize conscious consumption and mindful exchanges as part of our commitment to reducing waste. We encourage you to take extra care when making your purchases by thoroughly reviewing product descriptions, customer feedback, and brand policies before placing your order.

We understand that issues can sometimes arise. If your product arrives damaged, defective, or you experience another issue with your order, we’re here to help. Simply complete our Return or Refund Form to share the details of your concern, and our team will review your request on a case-by-case basis.

Below, you’ll find key information about how our exchange process works.

Important Information:

Return Shipping Costs
In most cases, customers are responsible for return shipping costs. Refer to the brand’s policy for more information about return shipping.

Non-Returnable Items
Due to hygienic reasons or brand-specific guidelines, certain products are not eligible for return. These include:

• Personal care items, skincare, PPE (e.g., face coverings), and underwear, which are final sale and not accepted for return due to sanitary reasons.

• All clearance/sale items are final sale and non-returnable.

Brand-Specific Conditions
Return windows may vary depending on the brand. Some may allow a 30-day return window, while others may have shorter or longer periods. Consult the brand’s exchange policy for more details. Additionally, some items may require approval before being returned, and inspections may apply.

Refunds
Once your return is processed, refunds will be issued to the original form of payment. Please note that it may take 3–5 business days for the refund to appear on your statement, depending on your bank. Original shipping costs are non-refundable unless the item is defective or incorrect.
