The website is: adambeauty.com
For those of you that are unfamiliar with this site, they stock and sell skincare products, bodycare products and makeup from a plethora of Japanese brands. Although I'm uncertain as to whether these brands are sold at a cheaper price elsewhere online, I shop at adambeauty because they charge only US$2 for delivery, regardless of how much you purchase. I would also recommend this site because even though they are shipping internationally, delivery is always prompt, and any queries I may have have are answered in under 24 hours. I've been a regular customer with adambeauty for around 2 years now, and have had absolutely no problems. The only downside I might add is that their website isn't the most user friendly online store I've seen, it's not exactly a joy to navigate, particularly if your aim is just to browse, but that's easily overcome if you know which brands you're targeting.
Anyway, back to my predicament. As always, I have the links to the products I frequently use saved on my mac, after some effortless copy and pasting into the address bar, products added to basket, couple of clicks, PayPal, done! Pas de problème!
3 weeks later, I thought it unusual that I hadn't received my package yet. So, after (thoroughly) checking the emailed invoice, I realised that my default address saved on PayPal was the address I had moved out of last summer T___T" I never check the emailed receipt, and this will clearly always be to my detriment. If I had bothered to check the invoice as soon as I placed my order, I would've been able to rectify the mistake I'd made. Anyway, I used to live in halls of accomodation in central London, so my only concern is either that, whoever currently lives in my room has taken/claimed my package, or, that reception have already disposed of/sent it back cause no one had claimed it. I guess I'll find out this tomorrow...
What are your favourite websites/places to shop for Asian cosmetics?

Hi, did you have to pay for custom tax once the parcel Arrived in uk?
ReplyDeleteNo I didn't! I've never had to with Adambeauty, and I shop with them quite frequently~
DeleteThanks for your reply also are the products genuine and not fakes?
DeleteI don't think I've ever received fake products from them! I've purchased asian skin care directly from shops in HK and have compared them to those I get from Adambeauty, and don't see any difference. I'm not sure how to officially verify genuine products though...
DeleteHi! Have you tried KoKo Korean Kosmetics and Pretty and Cute? :)
