Money saving tips
- Sign up for the bareMinerals email newsletter. New subscribers receive an instant discount code (typically 10% or 15% off) to use on their first full-price purchase, along with early notifications about flash sales.
- Join the Good Rewards loyalty program. It is free to sign up, and you will earn points on every purchase (plus bonus points for activities like completing a beauty profile or following their social media accounts). Points can be redeemed for monetary vouchers at checkout, such as 50 points for a £5 discount.
- Take advantage of the refer-a-friend scheme. When you refer a friend who makes a qualifying first purchase of £50 or more, you will both receive a £10 discount voucher to spend on your next order.
- Shop the dedicated "Sale" tab on the official website to find savings of up to 50% on discontinued shades, seasonal gift sets, and limited-edition palettes.
- Choose pre-made foundation and concealer bundles instead of buying individual items. These sets are heavily discounted and offer a lower price per item than purchasing each piece separately.
- Keep your basket total at £50 or above to automatically qualify for free standard UK shipping, saving you standard delivery fees.
Delivery and returns
bareMinerals offers free standard UK delivery on all orders over £50. For orders under £50, standard shipping typically takes 3 to 5 working days to arrive. Express delivery options are also available at checkout for an additional fee.
The brand operates a 30-day return policy from the date of receipt. To qualify for a refund, products must be returned in their original, resellable condition. If you are returning a promotional set or makeup kit, you must return all individual contents of the set together. Partial returns of a kit or empty containers will not be accepted for a refund. UK returns are completely free when processed through the official self-service online returns portal.
FAQs
Do they offer an NHS or key worker discount?
Yes, bareMinerals provides a 15% discount for healthcare workers, NHS staff, and other key workers. You can claim your unique promotional code by verifying your employment status through their designated key worker verification portal.
Do they offer a student discount?
Currently, bareMinerals does not offer a year-round, student-specific discount through platforms like Student Beans or UNiDAYS. However, students can take advantage of newsletter welcome codes, friend referral schemes, and seasonal bundle discounts.
Are bareMinerals products vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes. The brand is completely cruelty-free and certified by PETA, meaning they do not test on animals or ask others to do so on their behalf. While the vast majority of their product range is 100% vegan, individual product pages clearly label vegan-friendly formulations.
Can I get help with shade matching online?
Yes, the website offers several virtual shade-matching tools. You can use their online shade finder quiz, upload a photo, or book a free virtual consultation with a beauty expert to find your perfect foundation match.
Why isn't my voucher code working?
Check the specific exclusions attached to your code. Many bareMinerals promo codes apply only to full-priced individual items and exclude discounted product bundles, value sets, starter kits, and subscription orders. Make sure the code is typed exactly as it appears, with no trailing spaces.
