Anyone out there looking for name brand cosmetics, at warehouse prices need to take notice of CosmeticMall. They are a bargain website, that sell high quality health and beauty products. I recently saw some of their coupons floating around the Internet, and decided to click on over a see what they had to offer.
The first thing I noticed when viewing some of the promotional deals they had running: was that when you buy name brand products, the deals get even better. A quick look at some Clinique products showed some promise with great 2 for 1 packages, or “buy this lipstick and get a tube of moisturizer for free” kind of deals. So I decided to do a
trial run with CosmeticMall and order a couple of things to get an idea of how their shipping worked, and also to see if there was anything fishing going on with the product quality.
I went ahead and ordered some Clinique all day moisture cream and limited edition red lipstick from Elizabeth Arden. While my order was not enough to qualify for the free shipping offer they were running at the time, I wasn’t disappointed — as this was a trial run, if I liked how CosmeticMall handled my order, I would return to purchase more items. It’s important to note that CosmeticMall doesn’t offer free ground shipping to their customers, like a lot of other online retailers do. You have to really take a good look at their pricing to see why. E.g. I compared their Bobbi Brown “Beach” perfume to Cosme-De.com and there was easily a $10 savings — shipping is always included in the price, if you know what I mean.
Anyhow, my order arrived 4 days later, which impressed me. I ordered on a Monday and my order was waiting at my house when I got home from work on Friday. My lipstick and moisturizer were neatly packaged (with bubble-wrap) and everything appeared to be in order.
CosmeticMall had impressed me so far, with fast shipping and products that were as advertised. With that said, the biggest after-sale test was yet to come…the credit card bill: I always judge a company by three things – 1) Quick, hassle-free shipping. 2) Product arrives as described on website. 3) My credit card is charged what they said it was going to be charged.
After a couple of days I went to check my balance online, and got a big surprise. They didn’t over-bill me and everything was in order. I’ll tell you all, I’ve had so many issues with online retailers messing with my credit cards, so I always check immediately. Any messing around, and CosmeticMall wouldn’t have had anymore business from me.
Yesterday, I put in my next order at the CosmeticMall site for some Bobbi Brown “Beach” that I mentioned earlier, you can’t beat $55 per bottle. I can’t wait and if the shipping is anything like last time, I’m sure I’ll be writing another wonderful review for them in a day, or two. All in all, you can’t beat the price of MOST of their items. I can’t speak for everything, but from what I’ve scanned through…their right on top for quality and pricing — not to mention great ship times.
