About SHEIN
What's on the site
Womenswear is the deepest section, with plus sizes, beachwear and lingerie as well as everyday clothes and dresses. Men and children are covered too, from casual basics to activewear and tailoring.
Outside clothing, there are shoes, bags, jewellery and accessories. A beauty and health section sells cosmetics and skincare. Home and living goods, baby and maternity lines, pet products and small electronics fill out the rest.
Quality, sizing and returns
Quality varies from item to item. Reading customer reviews and the size guide on each product page can save a lot of returns.
Most items can be returned free within 35 days, though some, such as underwear and swimwear, cannot. Standard UK delivery takes 7 to 10 working days, with faster express options. Delivery is free on orders over £35.
Paying and extras
You can pay with Visa, Mastercard, PayPal or Apple Pay, or spread the cost with Klarna or Clearpay. Gift cards are available. SHEIN VIP lets members earn points on orders, while SHEIN Club is a paid quarterly membership with extra perks. Students can verify through UNiDAYS or Student Beans, and NHS and military staff have their own schemes.
On sustainability, the evoluSHEIN line uses more sustainable materials, but the company faces continuing scrutiny over its environmental record.
