My package says "delivered" but I can't find it.
We're so sorry to hear that. If your tracking shows your package as delivered but you haven't received it, we recommend checking around your delivery location, including porches, side doors, garages, mailrooms, or other secure areas. You may also want to check with neighbors or other members of your household.
In some cases, carriers mark packages as delivered before they arrive. Please allow up to 24 hours for the package to be delivered.
If your package has still not arrived after 24 hours, please contact the shipping carrier directly to submit a service request so they can investigate the delivery status.
My tracking hasn't updated. What should I do?
Sometimes tracking may pause while your package is still making its way to you. If your tracking hasn't updated, don't worry just yet! Your order may still be in transit and arriving a little later than expected.
We recommend allowing up to 10 days from the last tracking update for your package to continue moving. If there's still no movement after 10 days, please reach out to Team JOSIE. We'll be happy to look into your order and help with a reshipment or refund if needed.

What is Argan Oil?
- This multitasking oil contains just one ingredient in its most pure and potent form: ethically sourced, UNESCO-protected argan nuts. The argan nuts are hand-cracked at women-led coops in Morocco and then cold-pressed to lock in essential fatty acids and antioxidants—for intense hydration and a dewy, visible all-over glow.
How long do your products last? What's the shelf life?
- The general shelf life of our products is 12 to 18 months. We’re a naturally based beauty brand and we encourage our customers to use the products promptly once received. We have a very busy production schedule that allows us to maintain a steady supply of the freshest products. Stockpiling is not recommended.
Do you use parabens?
- No. We do not use parabens, synthetic fragrances, phthalates, or sulfates in any of our products.
Are your products gluten free?
- We believe in using high quality clean ingredient. Although not all of our formulas are gluten free we have a large variety that are. If you are interested in any specific products please click on the product page and this info will be listed for you.
Are your products vegan?
- We offer a wide variety of products acceptable to our vegan customers. We are always mindful of our producers and sources, so when we do use non-vegan ingredients such as lanolin, beeswax, or carmine we make sure that they are organic and/or sustainably harvested.
Why do you use synthetics in some of your makeup products?
- Over time, we have found that a small number of synthetic ingredients are essential to maintain the performance, color, and stability of a high-end cosmetics line. We strive to be as green and healthy as possible while providing the most gorgeous, wearable, and lasting makeup possible.
Are your products organic?
- Josie Maran Cosmetics is a natural line. We do have products that are 100% organic, but not all are formulated in this manner. We formulate with as many powerful natural and organic ingredients as possible because of the implicit health benefits these ingredients provide you and the planet. Plus, by purchasing natural and organic ingredients we are supporting farmers who value more sustainable and eco-friendly agricultural practices.
What can amino acids do for my skin?
- Amino acids are essential for strong healthy skin that can stand up to environmental stressors. Proteins from amino acids strengthen the look of skin - think of them like skin's cement and building blocks.
