General Info

1. What is HauteLook?
HauteLook is a premier members-only site that offers private, limited-time sale events on the world's best brands. Each day, members receive an email invitation to the newest, most exclusive sale events on the best merchandise for men, women, kids, home and beauty - at prices up to 75% off retail. HauteLook is free to join and everyone is welcome - there are no commitments or charges for membership.
2. How does HauteLook offer such great prices?
HauteLook partners with top fashion and lifestyle brands, suppliers and service providers to offer insider access to the highest quality merchandise. As a result, we're able to deliver a wider selection of the latest styles at deeply discounted prices for our members.

In order to offer our members great deals on the widest selection of brands possible, we will occasionally offer merchandise provided by carefully chosen suppliers, rather than from the brand directly. Because we buy in larger quantities from these suppliers, we are able to pass those savings along to our members.
3. What is a HauteLook Independent Sale event?
On occasion, we host a HauteLook Independent Sale Event -- another way to offer our members the most exclusive brands and products at amazing discounts. If you see a "HauteLook Independent Sale Event" label next to an event or product, it means that the available merchandise is provided by carefully chosen suppliers rather than directly from the brand itself.

In a HauteLook Independent Sale Event, you can expect:
- Guaranteed Authenticity: A HauteLook Independent Sale Event goes through a multi-step verification process and we guarantee 100% authenticity of every product.
- Carefully Chosen Independent Suppliers: To participate in a HauteLook Independent Sale Event, suppliers must first go through an extensive certification process to ensure authenticity, quality, and integrity of product.
4. Will I be charged anything to be a HauteLook member?
Absolutely not - we think everyone deserves access to great merchandise at affordable prices. No membership fees, no commitments -- you only pay for the items you buy during a sales event.
5. Why should I shop with HauteLook?
- The top brands and merchandise: HauteLook has built partnerships with a number of the world's top brands, suppliers and service providers so you have access to authentic, premium merchandise for every style and shopping taste.
- Deep discounts: With every sale, we offer our members preferred industry prices, usually at 50-75% off retail.
- Extensive selection: HauteLook works diligently to offer a wide selection and quantity of styles and sizes.
- Fun experience: HauteLook brings the thrill back to shopping with limited-time sale events featuring new brands on sale almost every day. Log in each day to discover the latest and greatest brands and merchandise at discounts provided exclusively to our members.

Sale Events

1. How does a HauteLook sale event work?
HauteLook has a team of experts dedicated to bringing members the most exciting brands and products. We partner with brands, suppliers and service providers to host events offering the widest style and size selection and the best prices possible, usually at 50-75% off retail. When a sale event is complete, we work with our partner or supplier to fulfill the order. Once we receive the items from the partner or supplier, HauteLook then packs and ships the items out to the members.
2. How long does a sales event last?
HauteLook sales events are customized for our members, so the length can vary. Generally, sale events starting Monday - Thursday will start 8 AM Pacific and run for 48 hours. Sale events starting on Friday or Saturday will usually begin at 8 AM Pacific and run until 8 AM Pacific on Monday morning. Given the high demand for the brands we feature, we always recommend shopping as early in the sale as possible. It's not unusual for some styles to sell out in the first few minutes.
3. When do HauteLook sale events start?
All HauteLook events start at 8 AM Pacific to allow equal access to members in all time zones.
4. How do I learn about HauteLook sale events?
Each morning, HauteLook members receive an email invitation to the day's events. Simply click on the email to be taken to the events that interest you. You'll also receive a Sunday email giving you a sneak preview of all the week's upcoming events. Of course, you can always check the "Coming Soon" section on the home page to learn more about upcoming events and featured brand partners.
5. What does it mean when an item is on hold?
Each sale item has a set amount of inventory. An item is placed "on hold' when the last available piece is put in another member's shopping cart but has not yet been purchased. Items return to availability if they have been in a shopping cart for fifteen minutes with no activity, so don't lose hope if an item you love is "on hold."
6. How long can I have an item in my shopping cart?
The amount of time you are able to hold an item in your shopping cart varies by event. Once you place an item in your shopping cart, you can view the timer for that item by going to the cart. Once an item is in your cart, no other member can access that item until the timer expires. Once an item times out, other members can add it to their carts. If an item times out but is still available, you can add it back in to your cart by clicking "Add it Again" in your cart.
7. How do I pay for my HauteLook purchase?
HauteLook currently accepts payment through PayPal and credit card payment from Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. You can select or add payment options during Step 1 of the checkout process, or at any other time by going to "My Account" and then selecting the "My Billing & Shipping" tab, where you will see prompts to add or edit payment methods. You can also always pay with HauteLook account credits earned through invitations and returns.
8. Does HauteLook ship to Canada?
Absolutely! For all orders shipped to Canada, we simply charge a base shipping rate of $10.95 (this includes brokerage fees) with incremental charges for packages over two pounds, and an international surcharge of 20%, which covers GST, PST and duties. These charges will be displayed when you check out, and what you see is what you pay - there are no additional charges upon receipt. Note: all prices and charges are in USD.
9. Does HauteLook ship internationally?
Currently, HauteLook ships only to the US and Canada. However, we are committed to giving everyone insider's access to the world's best brands, so we're looking into the best ways to serve our international members.

Shipping

1. How long will it take to get my order?
Once you place an order, HauteLook shipments generally take 10 - 14 business days to arrive on your doorstep. Check the "Estimated Delivery Dates" provided for each product so you'll know when to expect your order.
2. What if my order is not delivered within the Estimated Delivery Dates window?
We work very hard to deliver your orders within the Estimated Delivery Dates window. On the rare occasion when our deliveries are running later than expected, we will update the "My Orders" section of your account with the updated timing. If you have any concerns, feel free to contact Member Care at 1-888-547-8438.
3. Why do HauteLook orders take longer to arrive?
One reason HauteLook offers the best prices and the widest selection is that in most cases, the brands and suppliers only ship what has been ordered once an event has closed. Their shipment to HauteLook can take several business days. Once we receive the merchandise, we quickly sort, pack, and deliver it to our members, but the process can take up to 14 business days. The HauteLook team is continuously working hard to reduce shipping times.
4. How do I track the progress of my order?
HauteLook will send you an email when your order is confirmed and another when it ships. To check the status of your order at any time, just log into the "My Account" section of HauteLook.com. Click on the "My Orders" tab to see when your order is placed, when the shipment arrives at our warehouse, and other key steps in the process.
5. Why can't I ship overnight or 2-day service?
One reason HauteLook offers the best prices and selection is that in most cases, our brands and suppliers only ship what's ordered after the event has closed. Their shipment to HauteLook can take up to 3-5 business days. Once we receive the merchandise, we quickly review it, pack it, and then deliver it to our members. Due to this model, we cannot offer overnight shipping at this time.
6. Can I ship to PO boxes or APO/FPO addresses?
Sorry - HauteLook does not currently ship to PO boxes or APO/FPO addresses.
7. Does HauteLook ship internationally?
Currently, HauteLook ships only to the US and Canada. However, we are committed to giving everyone insider's access to the world's best brands, so we're looking into the best ways to serve our international members.
8. What is a short shipment? Why is my order affected?
We work closely with brands, suppliers and service providers to determine the exact number of items available for each event, but occasionally these partners and suppliers ship fewer items than agreed after the sale event is complete, which leads to short shipping.

Those few members whose orders are affected by short-shipping will be notified by email 5-7 days after an event is complete. Those members will receive a full refund for the short-shipped item as well as a HauteLook account credit ($5 for beauty items, $20 for all other categories.)

We are working with our partners and suppliers to eliminate this problem.
