We are unable to mark orders with a reduced value. As required by law, all orders will show their full value on your shipment’s customs form.

8. Can I use multiple discount codes simultaneously?
Our discount codes cannot be combined, which means that only one discount code can be applied per order.
9. Why does my discount code not work?
If you receive an error message when entering the discount code, it is most likely because the code cannot be applied to the items in your shopping cart.

PRODUCT INQUIRIES
27. Will items be restocked that are currently sold out?
Especially during promotional periods, it may happen that certain products are sold out. In general, it is possible that sold out items will be restocked, however, in general this cannot be guaranteed.
28. What ingredients are used to produce ZOEVA products?
You can find the full list of ingredients on our product packaging or each product page on our website. Please read the ingredient list before using a ZOEVA product to ensure that the product and its ingredients are suitable for you.
29. What kind of hair is used for ZOEVA cosmetic brushes?
All our ZOEVA cosmetic brushes are vegan, which means that no natural or animal hair is used to craft our brushes. Instead, we use soft, pure, high-quality synthetic hair mixes for our handmade brushes.
30. What materials are used for manufacturing ZOEVA brushes?
Our ZOEVA brushes are traditionally handmade with premium components. The wooden handle is 100% compromised from sustainable forestry sources and coated with 6 layers of lacquer. Thanks to a special “crimping” technique, the durable, refined brass ferrule fuses seamlessly with the wooden brush handle. Made with soft, pure synthetic hair that maintains its shape, our brushes are the perfect partner to help you achieve the look you desire.
31. What is the difference between black and white brush hair?
ZOEVA cosmetic brushes are handcrafted from soft, pure synthetic hair. The sustainable synthetic hair of these brushes is durable, dimensionally stable, and cruelty-free.
The white brush hair is comprised of our innovative, marvelously Soft-Vegan-Performance™ hair mix. Designed for applying and blending loose or pressed powder products with ease.
The black brush hair is made of a vegan mono hair mix, and is designed for the application of liquid, gel or cream textures without absorbing the product.
32. How should I clean my brushes?
Our ZOEVA makeup brushes are made of soft, pure synthetic hair. Cleaning your brushes on a regular basis will not only extend their lifetime but is essential for healthy looking skin and the best makeup results.
Although all makeup brushes should be washed on a regular basis – at least every ten days - brushes for cream and liquid textures, such as foundation, concealer or lipstick, will require more frequent attention to remove makeup residue and bacteria thoroughly.
1. Wet the brush hairs with lukewarm to body-warm water.
2. For a thorough cleaning, we recommend using our Brush Cleansing Pad.
3. Clean the brush with a brush cleanser or mild shampoo and lather the cleanser intensively in circular movements.
4. Wash out the cleanser thoroughly to completely dissolve all product residue.
5. Press the excess water out of the brush hairs.
6. Bring the brush hairs back in their original shape with gentle movements.
7. As soon as the hairs are completely dry, the brush is fully ready for use again. Due to the high quality of the brush hairs, the shape as well as the performance of your brush will be maintained.
8. For a particularly thorough cleaning, the pure synthetic brush hairs can also be disinfected without this leading to drying of the hair.
9. Gently stroke the brush over a clean towel and then bring the brush hairs back into their shape.
10. It is recommended to place the brush on an edge so that the air can circulate completely around the brush hairs.
The brush should also not be stored with the brush hairs facing upwards as this prevents the water from escaping completely and it may accumulate in the brass ferrule or the wooden handle.
11. Once the hairs are completely dry, the brush will be ready to use. Due to the high quality pure synthetic brush hairs, the shape as well as the performance of your brush maintain.
12. For a particular thorough cleaning, the pure synthetic brush hairs can also be disinfected without this leading to dehydration of the hairs.
33. Why is my ZOEVA brush shedding?
Our ZOEVA makeup brushes are handcrafted of ultra-soft pure synthetic hair. Kindly keep in mind, however, that light shedding is natural for handset brushes and should normally cease after the first initial washes.
Please clean your brushes according to our instructions under “32. How should I clean my brushes?”. If the brush keeps losing hair even after multiple treatments, we encourage you to send an email with your full name, order number and photos of the brush to our Customer Care Team. Kindly use our contact form to submit your request.
34. Does ZOEVA test on animals?
ZOEVA does not conduct or condone testing on animals, nor do we ask anyone to do this on our behalf. We stand for high-quality, cruelty-free products and ZOEVA strictly refrains from animal testing. Neither our products nor the raw materials used to produce our products have ever been tested on animals.

ZOEVA is committed to providing high-quality products that are never tested on animals.
36. Where are ZOEVA products manufactured?
