Why are cosmetics sold online so much cheaper than those sold in shopping mall counters? Especially brand-name cosmetics

It is undeniable that Taobao or other websites are indeed filled with many fake and shoddy goods. There is no way, who makes us Chinese smart and have first-class counterfeiting technology! However, we found that every shop owner boasts that his products are genuine, and he buys them at the counter, imports them from abroad, and buys them from Hong Kong... However, we are not professionals and cannot distinguish the authenticity of the products. At this time, we How to choose products? I personally bought a lot of DDs on Taobao, and I have a profound experience. I only found out later that the DDs I bought were fakes. Please don’t be fooled!

First of all, don’t blindly believe in the credit index. This is not a measure of product authenticity. When we go to eBay or Taobao, we will find that some store owners’ credit indexes are blue diamonds, which means there are many positive reviews! Many people, including myself, also use this as their evaluation criterion. However, I later realized that this was completely wrong! Why? Nowadays, it is popular to speculate on credit index on the Internet. Many people open multiple stores. They are doing this full-time anyway, so they have plenty of time! One month later, it’s already a blue diamond! Also, many people have 100% positive reviews, but actually, how is this possible? I once bought a DD and gave it a neutral review. The seller called me and asked me to remove the neutral review and provide me with a return and exchange service!

Second, don’t be fooled by low prices, and don’t believe the so-called Hong Kong products or Taiwanese products! There is a certain reason why online products are cheaper. Why? Because we didn’t rent a store or hire any helpers, the cost of the product is reduced, and the price of the product is naturally lower! Think about it, how much money do you pay to the mall after the products enter the counter, and how much are the waiters’ salaries every month? But everyone should be careful not to be tempted by products with ridiculously low prices. I am sure that they are 100% fake! Because many sellers sell products from Hong Kong and Taiwan... However, there are a lot of tricks in these products. More than 50% of the products are imitations processed in Guangdong, and their quality needs to be verified. Even those sellers are not professionals. What is the promise of product authenticity? In fact, JM who has been to Hong Kong or bought DD in Hong Kong knows that the price is not more than 30% cheaper than those online sellers boast!

Third, what online sellers call buying goods directly from abroad! You know, foreign countries use Euros or U.S. dollars. Unless there are formal channels, you can't get cheap prices! Even the Laneige Sleeping Mask from South Korea is around 120 when purchased directly from Korea, but many sellers offer it for 110. Isn’t he making money? Impossible! There is a problem here! My classmate bought a bottle of NEVEA toner in France for more than 10 euros. It’s just a brand like Nivea that is very bad in China. You can think of other brands. Therefore, you don’t want to buy products from abroad that are popular online. believe! Also, does anyone know how much the shipping fee is? Domestic express delivery prices are very expensive, let alone overseas purchases!

In short, JM who buys DD online must be careful not to be deceived. After all, this kind of DD is rubbed on the face! So, what should girls who want to save money or shop online do?

It is recommended that you choose products with QIC logo and Chinese and English descriptions. Why? I don’t know if you have noticed when you go to shopping mall counters to look at products. There is a small label that looks like an anti-counterfeiting mark. I took a closer look that day and it said QIC. These two explanations are that when some foreign traders come back from abroad, after passing the customs declaration, the State Quarantine Bureau inspects the qualified products. Generally, such dealers supply to special counters, and the products are reliable.

As everyone said, products that have paid taxes are naturally more expensive than products from Hong Kong and Taiwan. However, if you don’t enter the mall, you must know that you have to pay a lot of money to enter the mall! Since it is sold online, it may be a little more expensive than Taiwanese and Hong Kong products, but the price is far from that of counters in shopping malls. After all, it has quality assurance, so you can feel more confident when using it!

You may still have questions. The QIC logo and Chinese description can also be faked. Then JMS can go to the mall after getting the product and tell the waiter that on which day you bought this product here and you don’t think it is right. I'm very satisfied. It feels like a fake. The waiter will definitely take it out for you to identify. You can smell the same product at the counter, the fragrance, the material... If you are still not convinced, you can go through the inspection agency and they will help review the QIC mark. And the authenticity of the Chinese description! I think this way you don’t have to worry!
