Target's return policy for makeup is designed to be customer-friendly while maintaining certain conditions. Here's what you need to know:
Return Window and Conditions
-
Standard Return Period: Most makeup items can be returned within 90 days of purchase.
-
Extended Return for REDcard Holders: If you used a Target REDcard for your purchase, you have up to 120 days to return the item.
-
Target-Owned Brands: Products from Target-owned brands, such as Sonia Kashuk, can be returned within one year of purchase.
Opened or Used Products
Target generally accepts returns of opened or slightly used makeup products within the return window, provided they are not empty or heavily used. The decision to accept such returns is at the discretion of the store manager.
Returns Without a Receipt
If you've lost your receipt, Target can often verify your purchase using the original payment method (e.g., credit/debit card, Target REDcard) or through your Target.com account. If no proof of purchase is available, you may receive a merchandise return card for in-store use.
Online Purchases
Makeup items purchased on Target.com can be returned either in-store or by mail. For mail returns, customers are typically responsible for return shipping costs unless the return is due to an error on Target's part.
Policy Updates and Exceptions
Target reserves the right to deny returns if fraud or abuse is suspected. Additionally, items returned after the designated return window, without proof of purchase, or in a heavily used or damaged condition may be denied a refund or exchange.
Tips for a Smooth Return Experience

Keep Receipts: Retain your receipts or ensure your purchases are linked to your Target account for easy verification.
-
Return Promptly: Initiate returns as soon as possible within the return window.
-
Maintain Product Condition: Ensure products are returned in their original packaging and are not excessively used.
