Buying makeup and cosmetics online is something that a lot of us are nervous about. There are so many things that could go wrong: like buying the wrong shade or getting broken bottles in the mail. But sometimes, the makeup we’re looking for is just not available in physical stores. Which is why we usually turn to online sources. Of course, there are the discounts too. Because makeup shopping online is such a nerve-racking hassle, choosing your online make-up store can be difficult. So we have shortlisted the best in India to shop from online beauty stores:
Nykaa
It is currently India’s favourite online dedicated beauty store and the reason it is so popular is its very organised categorisation of products, made for the woman who knows her make-up well. It also has an incredible range of products. There are also the never-ending sales and discount offers that Nykaa is always offering. Also, we love their line of nail polishes and bath products.
Purplle
A less known name but well valued for it’s now excellent customer services, Purplle makes sure your make-up reaches you right with their protective packaging done perfectly. If you shop from Purplle, you’ll never have to worry about a damaged product. Its range of products is also satisfying and they have a good share of discounts too.
Amazon
Ever since Amazon expanded its breadths to cover every possible product there is to sell, we know we’ll find whatever we look for in the online store. That includes beauty as well. Amazon has a good range of beauty products and the best part is that the international brands are well represented. The only problem with Amazon is that the prices are not consistent with the other sites, especially for the international brands. A plus point with Amazon is that it is a trusted website with good services and a customer review system that makes the buying process much easier.
Flipkart
India’s own e-commerce giant, Flipkart is another source of all things you may need but can’t always find in stores, including your makeup. Flipkart is a lot like Amazon and though it may not be your first choice when it comes to buying make-up, you will most likely check Flipkart anyway for a good deal. And you can be assured that Flipkart has a satisfying range of beauty products to choose from.
Snapdeal
Although Snapdeal is not a dedicated fashion website, it surprisingly has a very extensive range of make-up and beauty products, much more than the exclusive fashion big names, making it one of the best sites to look for make-up in India. It has dedicated categories to different types of make-up. It may not be as devoted as Nykaa, but it is reliable and it does offer more than 20,000 items to choose from, from equipment to the regular make-up.
