What does Mecca's warranty cover?
Mecca’s warranty coverage is built on Australia’s Consumer Law (ACL), which guarantees that every product you buy must be:
- Of acceptable quality
- Safe to use
- Durable for a reasonable time
- Fit for purpose
- Match the description provided
If a beauty product, tool, device, or accessory from Mecca has a manufacturer defect, quality issue, or major failure, Mecca is required to remedy it, even beyond their standard 90-day return window.
What Mecca Covers Under Warranty
- Faulty packaging (broken pumps, shattered delivery items)
- Defective products that fail early (e.g., beauty tools that stop working)
- Contaminated or spoiled items (not caused by misuse)
- Items unsafe to use or not fit for purpose
- Products not performing as described
If the issue is a major failure, you’re entitled to choose a full refund or replacement.
If the issue is minor, Mecca will either replace or refund it, at their discretion.
Mecca also honours warranty remedies regardless of how long ago you purchased. As long as the product failed sooner than a “reasonable consumer” would expect.

Exclusions & limitations - when Mecca's warranty doesn't apply
Mecca’s warranty is generous, but not unlimited. Claims may be declined if:
Damage Was Caused by Misuse
Examples:
- Product dropped and broken
- Cosmetic stored incorrectly (e.g., heat damage)
- Beauty tool used incorrectly or modified
Wear & Tear
Not covered:
- Brushes shedding after heavy long-term use
- Cosmetics nearing the end of life
- Batteries dying from long-term use
No Proof of Purchase
Several customers reported warranty refusals because they no longer had their receipt.
Allergic Reactions Without Product Fault
If a formula doesn’t agree with your skin, that’s not a defect unless the product itself is compromised.
Abnormal Use
Using products outside their intended purpose voids coverage.
