    Default U-Beaut Polishes - NEW WEB SITE

    Back in January 2021 I started work on building a new Online Shop for U-Beaut Polishes thought it was about time to get rid of the old, 1990's, baby poo coloured, dinosaur, website and crawl kicking and screaming into the 2nd decade of the 21st Century.

    Took almost 12 mths but it is now up and running.... hopefully bug free and just a bit more modern and user friendly. Hopefully!

    You can get to it a couple or few ways as listed below:



    The new site if fully secure and reasonably easy to navigate. It also has (for want of a better word) a blog "Articles, Information - From the Maker" with one 11 month old post in it for now. Hopefully it will fill up with more. I get lots of enquiries from people wanting help and information so I will be putting some of those enquiries and help in there as I get them or if I remember.

    Come and have a look. Let me know what you reckon (only nice comments accepted) Nah, I'll take the bad as well as the good.

    Cheers - Neil

    Yeah but it feels like I lost a decade working on the new site.

    Couple of things I forgot to mention in initial post.


    1. Today is day one of our first real price increase for a few years. So all the prices on the new site are what will/should take effect across all our distributors sites and shops from today on, or at least after their next restock.
    2. Sometime in the not too distant future we will have a section for Trade & Bulk Sales been left off for the moment to avoid utter confusion.
    3. I am working on a couple of new food safe products that will be safe for Vegans and those with nut allergies.
    4. We have just taken possession of many thousands of all new 250mm HDPE jars and lids that will also be more food safe and tougher than the old jars.
    5. There has to be a #5 but can't think of it right now. Ahhh, anyway.


    Thanks for the comments folks.

    Sorry for the rant!
    Its actually illegal to do so - it falls into the misleading conduct category - check your consumer rights under Australian Consumer Law.

    Same as a company who advertises a "bait" special only to tell the customer it is unavailable for "rain check" but then steers the customer to a "like product."

    Misleading and Deceptive Conduct | Australian Consumer Law (awbrisbanelawyers.com.au)

    Misleading and Deceptive Conduct

    Under s18 of Australian Consumer Law (ACL) a person must not, in trade or commerce, engage in conduct that is:

    • misleading; or
    • likely to mislead or deceive.

    This section focuses upon conduct rather than representations that a person may make.
    What Is Misleading and Deceptive Conduct?

    The law defines conduct as doing or refusing to do any act.
    A person has engaged in conduct that is misleading if they have made a misrepresentation. A misrepresentation may be either express or implied.
    The conduct does not need to mislead or deceive. There also does not need to have been an intention to mislead, only that such conduct tends to mislead.

    FAILURE TO DISCLOSE INFORMATION

    Silence may constitute misleading or deceptive conduct under the ACL. This can be where a person fails to state information which impacts the accuracy of what they have said.
    Liability may result from silence if there is a reasonable expectation of disclosure."

    A change is also good for any business with online exposure ,it shows that you are aware of your market in an ever evolving market.
    Looks great.

    I'll admit I've held off making purchases directly previously because of the cumbersome nature of it. The update looks great and will happily try again you have Hide glue!

    Thumbs up FOUR DAY SALE - ENDS Sunday at 5:00pm

    Old website (U-Beaut Polishes) will be taken down at 5:00pm Sunday night. Bearing in mind that all the prices on our new site are from our newest price list Dec 1st 2021

    So anyone wanting to get something directly from us at old prices will need to get in quick.

    Cheers Neil
