5. Using our products safely
LouBoo Labs products are grooming and skincare products for dogs. They are not medicines and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. Before use, please read and follow the label, warnings and directions provided with the product. If anything on our website differs from the label on the product you receive, follow the label.
- For external use on dogs only.
- Check the full ingredient list on the label before use, especially if your dog has known allergies or sensitivities.
- Patch test on one paw 24 hours before full use.
- Avoid contact with the eyes and the inside of the ears. If contact occurs, rinse well with water.
- Stop use if you notice redness, irritation, swelling or discomfort, and consult your veterinarian. Please also let us know at hey@louboolabs.com.

If we issue a safety notice or recall for a product, please stop using it and follow our instructions. We will offer a replacement or refund for any recalled product.
6. Product information and claims
We take care to describe our products accurately. Product images are for illustration; packaging may vary slightly between batches. Colour, texture and fragrance may also vary slightly between batches; minor variations of this kind are not a defect. We may update formulations and packaging from time to time, and the label on the product you receive shows its current ingredients.
Where we refer to clinical evidence, it means the following:
- “Clinically proven actives” refers to published scientific evidence on the individual active ingredients we use, rather than on our finished products.
- Clinical results shown for The Skin Barrier Serum come from in vitro laboratory testing on reconstructed human epidermis under an OECD protocol. They were not obtained from testing on dogs.
Results can vary from dog to dog, and we cannot guarantee a particular result for your dog. If a product you receive is not as described on our website, you are entitled to a remedy under our Returns & Refunds Policy.
