Cancel Il Makiage: The Right Way

How to cancel il Makiage and reclaim your money fast in canada

What you need to know about il Makiage

Il Makiage is a direct-to-consumer cosmetics brand that delivers high-performance foundations, concealers, skincare treatments and curated makeup sets to Canadian customers. The company offers three purchasing paths: one-time orders, trial programs called "Try Before You Buy," and auto-replenishment subscriptions that charge your payment method repeatedly for repeat products.

If you enrolled in an auto-replenishment plan, signed up for a trial offer, or placed a one-time order you now want to cancel, you have clear consumer rights and multiple ways to act. This guide walks you through every cancellation method available to you in Canada, your refund timeline, and the legal protections that back your decision. Tocancel has helped thousands of Canadian consumers navigate subscription cancellations and recover money they deserve, and we're here to guide you through the exact same process.

Why customers cancel il Makiage

You might be cancelling because an auto-replenishment charge surprised you, a trial order arrived but you didn't return it in time, or you simply changed your mind about a product purchase. Perhaps the foundation shade didn't match your skin tone, or the subscription costs add up faster than you expected. Whatever your reason, your right to cancel is protected under Canadian consumer law, and this guide will show you how to use it confidently.

Your consumer rights and what they mean for you

Under the Consumer Protection Act in most Canadian provinces (including Ontario, British Columbia and Alberta), you have the legal right to cancel a subscription or trial offer within a specific time window. Il Makiage's "Try Before You Buy" program requires you to return items within 14 days of delivery to avoid being charged. For regular one-time orders, you typically have 30 days to initiate a return or exchange under provincial law. If il Makiage makes it difficult to cancel or refuses a legitimate refund, you can escalate to your provincial consumer protection authority or contact your payment card issuer for a chargeback. Tocancel recommends keeping screenshots, emails and delivery confirmations so you have proof if you need to escalate your claim.

Il Makiage pricing and subscription plan types

Understanding what you're paying for helps you identify the fastest cancellation path and what refund you can expect.

The key distinction: one-time purchases are straightforward to cancel before shipment. Auto-replenishment subscriptions and trial offers require you to take active steps in your account or contact support to prevent future charges or avoid full-price billing.

Why you should cancel il Makiage and common reasons customers do

Understanding your reasons for cancelling helps you communicate clearly with support and strengthens your position if you need to escalate a dispute.

When cancellation makes sense

You should cancel il Makiage if the auto-replenishment charges exceed your budget, if products don't match what was promised, if you're unhappy with formula or shade match, or if you simply no longer want to receive monthly shipments. Trial offers can also lock you into unexpected full-price charges if you miss the 14-day return window. If il Makiage is charging you without clear consent or fails to process a cancellation request, that's a red flag that your consumer rights are being ignored. Tocancel's data shows the most common cancellation reason is unexpected subscription renewal charges that weren't clearly disclosed at checkout.

When to keep your subscription active

Keeping your il Makiage subscription may make sense if you genuinely love the products, use them regularly and can afford the monthly cost without stress. If you're considering cancellation only because you're unsure how to do it, this guide removes that barrier. However, if you're cancelling because of surprise charges, poor customer service or difficulty reaching the company, your instinct is correct and you should follow the cancellation steps below.

How to cancel il Makiage: step-by-step methods

Your cancellation path depends on what type of purchase you made and whether it has already shipped. Tocancel walks you through each scenario so you can act with confidence today.

Cancelling a one-time order before it ships

This is your easiest exit. If you placed a one-time order for concealer, foundation or makeup set and it hasn't been processed yet, you can stop it within hours.

1. Log into your il Makiage account using your email and password.
   • If you don't remember your password, click "Forgot Password" and follow the reset link sent to your email.
2. Navigate to "Orders" or "My Account" and locate the order you want to cancel.
   • Look for the order status; if it says "Pending" or "Processing," you can still cancel.
   • If it says "Shipped," contact support immediately; cancellation will be harder but not impossible.
3. Click the order and select "Cancel Order" or similar option.
   • Confirm the cancellation when prompted.
4. Within 3-5 business days, check your email for a cancellation confirmation and refund notification.
   • The refund should appear in your account within 7-10 business days after that.

Cancelling an auto-replenishment subscription

Auto-replenishment subscriptions bill you repeatedly unless you explicitly cancel. Act quickly to prevent the next charge.

1. Log into your il Makiage account.
2. Go to "Subscriptions," "Auto-Replenishment" or "My Recurring Orders" (exact label varies).
3. Select the subscription you want to cancel and click "Manage Subscription" or "Cancel Subscription."
   • Il Makiage may offer a discount to keep you subscribed; skip this if you're certain you want to cancel.
4. Confirm the cancellation. You should receive an email confirmation within hours.
   • Screenshot this confirmation for your records.
5. Verify in your account that the subscription no longer appears in your active subscriptions.
6. If the next billing cycle approaches and you haven't received cancellation confirmation, contact il Makiage support immediately with your order number.

Cancelling a try before you buy trial offer

Trial offers charge you a reduced price upfront but convert to full price if you don't return items within 14 days. You have two paths.

1. Return the items within 14 days of delivery.
   • Pack the products securely and use the return label il Makiage provided in the box.
   • Once il Makiage receives and inspects your return, you won't be charged the full price. This typically takes 7-14 days after they receive it.
2. If you missed the 14-day return window or can't return the items, contact il Makiage customer support immediately.
   • Explain your situation: you want to cancel the subscription that converts from trial to full price.
   • Ask for a refund or cancellation of the full-price charge. Be polite but firm; if products arrived damaged or if you never consented to conversion, you have a strong case.
3. If support refuses, follow the escalation steps in the "Your rights if il Makiage refuses to cancel" section below.

Cancelling if you can't access your account

If you forgot your password, can't log in, or your account has been locked, you still have options.

1. Visit the il Makiage website and click "Forgot Password" or "Help."
   • Enter your email address and follow the reset link sent to your inbox within minutes.
2. If you still can't access your account, contact il Makiage customer support directly:
   • Use the contact form on their website or email support (found in the footer).
   • Provide your name, email, and order or subscription number.
   • Clearly state: "I want to cancel my subscription/order effective immediately."
3. Follow up with a second email if you don't receive a response within 24 hours, and reference the ticket or case number from your first message.

Refunds: what to expect and how long they take

Cancelling doesn't automatically mean a refund; the refund timeline and amount depend on what stage your order is at and your reason for cancelling.

Refund timeline for one-time orders

If you cancel before your order ships, you receive a full refund. Il Makiage processes the cancellation confirmation within 3-5 business days, and the refund appears in your original payment method within 7-10 business days after that. Credit card refunds sometimes take longer if your bank processes them slowly; debit card refunds typically appear faster. If 14 days pass and your refund hasn't arrived, contact your bank or card issuer to confirm whether il Makiage initiated the refund.

Refund timeline for auto-replenishment subscriptions

Cancelling your subscription stops future charges immediately. Il Makiage does not refund past charges you've already paid; however, if you cancel before the next billing date, that charge will not go through. For example, if your next charge is scheduled for June 15 and you cancel on June 10, you won't be charged on June 15. If you were charged by mistake after cancelling, escalate to il Makiage support with your cancellation confirmation email as proof.

Refund timeline for try before you buy offers

If you return items within 14 days, il Makiage refunds the trial price within 7-10 business days of receiving your return. If you miss the 14-day window and the full price is charged, you can request a refund if il Makiage cannot prove you consented to the conversion. Tocancel recommends requesting this refund in writing so you have documentation.

Your rights if il Makiage refuses to cancel or refund

You have legal protections if il Makiage ignores your cancellation request or wrongfully charges you after cancellation. Here's how to escalate.

Your legal position under canadian consumer protection law

Under the Consumer Protection Act and similar provincial legislation, companies must allow you to cancel subscriptions without penalty. If il Makiage refuses, continues charging you after cancellation, or makes the cancellation process deliberately difficult, they are likely breaking the law. You have the right to dispute the charge, request a refund and, if necessary, pursue compensation for the inconvenience. Tocancel recommends documenting every step: screenshots of your cancellation confirmation, emails to and from support, and proof that il Makiage continued charging you.

Step 1: contact il Makiage one final time in writing

Send a formal email to il Makiage support stating exactly what happened and what you want. Use clear language:

"I cancelled my subscription/order on [date]. I have received [number] unauthorized charges since that date. I request an immediate refund of $[amount] and confirmation that my subscription is permanently cancelled. Please respond within 5 business days."

Keep this email short, factual and unemotional. Screenshot the response or lack thereof.

Step 2: dispute the charge with your bank or credit card company

If il Makiage doesn't respond or refuses your refund request, contact your bank or credit card issuer immediately. Explain that you cancelled your subscription but il Makiage continued charging you. Provide your cancellation confirmation email as proof. Your bank can issue a chargeback (reversal) within 60-120 days of the unauthorized charge. This is a powerful tool and is backed by Canadian banking law.

Step 3: escalate to your provincial consumer protection authority

If your bank cannot help or il Makiage disputes the chargeback, contact your provincial consumer protection office. In Ontario, that's the Ministry of Government and Consumer Services. In British Columbia, it's the Office of the Registrar of Mortgage Brokers and Consumer Protection. Each province has its own authority. File a formal complaint with your cancellation proof, emails from support and proof of unauthorized charges. These agencies have the power to investigate il Makiage and, if wrongdoing is found, order the company to refund you and other affected customers.

Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling il Makiage

Many customers get stuck or delayed because they make small errors. Don't let that be you. Here are the traps to sidestep.

Mistake 1: assuming cancellation happened just because you clicked delete

Many customers delete an order or subscription from their view and assume it's cancelled. In reality, nothing happened. Always wait for a confirmation email from il Makiage after you click cancel. If you don't receive one within 2 hours, log back in and verify the subscription is gone, or contact support to confirm.

Mistake 2: not keeping proof of cancellation

Screenshot or forward your cancellation confirmation email to yourself immediately. If il Makiage charges you again and claims they never received a cancellation request, this screenshot is your proof. Without it, you're relying on the company's word, which may not help you.

Mistake 3: cancelling through email only and not following up

If you email il Makiage support asking to cancel and don't hear back, assume nothing changed. Send a follow-up email within 24 hours. If you still don't hear back, use the online account cancellation method if available, or contact them again with urgency. Don't wait until you're charged again to realize your first email went unanswered.

Mistake 4: returning your trial offer too close to the 14-day deadline

If you send back your Try Before You Buy items on day 13, they may not arrive back at il Makiage until day 16 or later. By then, the 14-day window has closed and the full price may already be charged. Return items by day 10 at the latest to ensure il Makiage receives them within the window.

Mistake 5: not checking your bank statement after cancellation

Even after you cancel, check your bank or credit card statement 2-3 weeks later. If an unexpected il Makiage charge appears, contact support immediately with your cancellation proof. The sooner you act, the easier it is to reverse the charge.

After cancellation: what happens next

Once your cancellation is confirmed, your relationship with il Makiage changes. Here's what to expect and how to protect yourself going forward.

Your account remains active, but subscription stops

Cancelling your subscription does not delete your il Makiage account. You can still log in, view past orders and make new one-time purchases if you choose to. This is normal and is not a sign that cancellation failed. If you want to fully close your account, you can request account deletion from support, though this is optional.

Verify no new charges appear

Wait two billing cycles after cancellation to confirm il Makiage no longer charges you. Check your bank statement carefully. If an unauthorized charge appears, you now have clear evidence that the company violated your cancellation request, and you can escalate immediately to your bank or provincial consumer protection authority.

Unsubscribe from marketing emails

After cancellation, il Makiage will likely continue sending you promotional emails. At the bottom of any marketing email, click "Unsubscribe" to remove yourself from their mailing list. This is a separate step from cancelling your subscription but helps you make a clean break.

Track il makiage's customer service for a future decision

If il Makiage charged you without consent, refused to cancel or made the process difficult, note this experience. If you ever consider their products again, remember how they treated your cancellation request. Your experience matters, and companies that make cancellation easy tend to earn customer loyalty in the long run.
