It's true you can find great quality and prices with online purchase -- but it's also true you can run into lots of trouble. Here are a few thing to consider to help ensure a smooth purchasing experience!
First, be sure exactly what it is you want to buy. You'll find so many choices and options that it's easy to get sidetracked into unwanted buys.
If you're looking for specific items you may find the best luck concentrating on companies who specialize in your item. For instance, rather than search for "makeup" or "cosmetics", search on "glitter fingernail polish" or "anti-aging moisturizers".
You'll find the set of selections much easier to deal with!
Next, be wary who you purchase from. If the site looks like it was started yesterday, it probably was! If the site is run by an individual or a non-manufacturer or merchant, you won't have a feel for how current your item may be. It might have been stored away way past it's shelf life!
Check for a satisfactory return policy!
Next, just say "NO" -- don't ever buy used cosmetics! Just don't do it -- and if you're buying off "Ebay", be sure and ask enough questions to satisfy you that the item is a new and current item.
Also remember you don't have to go this alone -- use the power of numbers and experience. Many women have posted their purchasing experiences online -- use this information! Read their recommendations to find good sources and good deals. Learn who to stick with -- and who to steer away from!
Finally, don't forget about shipping charges! Online prices often look very tempting when you forget to take shipping into account. If you're purchasing from an in-state source, you'll likely have sales taxes tacked on top of your total as well!
