As a self confessed make up lover I have found the perfect way to successfully shop for my make up but what about you guys who are watching these YouTube videos and reading these blogs about products and have no idea where or how to buy them?
I have compiled a list of the best websites to shop online for your perfect beauty picks!
This website is my immediate go to for shopping as it holds a host of beauty brands that you can’t get on the high street or even in your local department stores. From Anastasia Beverly Hills to Sigma to Morphe to Zoeva it has it all! Before Beauty Bay came along it was hard (and expensive) to get these amazing products but it is so easy.
You can view your products by brand and make up category making it easier to see what you are looking for and pick up a few bargains on the way. Speaking of bargains, they have a sale on now GO GO GO!
Not only is this a fantastic and easy to use website but you get free delivery with a £15 spend. I don’t know about you but I could spend £15 in 15 seconds so that’s not a problem for me. This is great as it appeals to even those on a budget.
When I can’t find what I need on Beauty Bay my next stop is Cult Beauty. Serving you brands from Huda Beauty to Becca Cosmetics to Lime Crime to Farsali (you know that serum Instagrammers are dripping all over their faces?). They also sell some of the same things that Beauty Bay has so if you are enquiring about prices be sure to check on both as you may save yourself some £’s.
What I like about Cult Beauty is that on their main page they have got such great blog posts that are interesting and entertaining to read (https://www.cultbeauty.co.uk/blog) Not only that but you can shop a trends section to stay up to date with what’s hot in the beauty industry which is extremely helpful because I feel like the trends change weekly and can be hard to keep up. God forbid I put on a gloss when it’s back to ‘all matte everything.’
PS. There’s a sale on Cult Beauty too!
Us fortunate souls in the Belfast area are extremely lucky to have Space NK on our doorstep but for those who don’t or are lazier (me) then the website is perfection! What started out as a single store in Covent Garden has now graduated into 60 stores over UK & Ireland is now home to over 70 brands. Carrying some of the world’s most amazing, elusive brands Space NK provides a shopping experience like no other. From Hourglass to Rodin (oh please tell me you have tried this brand?! Their Jasmine & Neroli Luxury Body Oil is to die for…)
So this is primarily a subscription service that sends subscribers five selected samples of makeup, skincare, haircare, etc. For £10 a month/ £60 for 6 months/ £110 for 12 months you get a box of goodies that are tailored to suit you. I love this website, it’s such a great idea to get to try products you never would have normally. Plus, technically you’re only buying one thing, so it’s not as bad as buying 5 things. You can also purchase products from this website like the others but this one is all about the special boxes that come every month. I love them, it’s like getting a little surprise sent to you in the mail!
In fact if you order a box in January you get a free Pop Beauty Eyeshadow Trio with a Spectrum brush – just use the code EYES at checkout – YAY!
There are so many sites that you can use but these are a selection of my favourites and the ones that I use all the time. Way more than I probably should. These sites are perfect for those amazing products that you can’t get in normal stores, or if you just hate going into places like Debenhams, Boots, etc then they are perfect for you.
Happy shopping!
