Myntra.com Haul and Review

I know I am MIA from a long time..blame the stupid internet..its been 8-9 days it gets disconnected every night..and during daytime I am in office..finally I get to blog :DComing to Myntra.com, I have shopped a few time previously at Myntra but mostly clothes, shoes, etc..but not from the Beauty section..they provided a voucher to shop and experience the beauty section..and I said why not..

I got my stuff within a day or two..they are pretty quick..and I love how we get different individual boxes..don’t we all need them to keep our makeup 😀

Let’s see what I shopped..

I got:

Faces Exfoliating Gloves (affordable dupe for the Body Shop Gloves)
Maybelline Makeup Remover (wanted to try this from a long time)
Maybelline Colorsensational High Shine Lip Gloss in Plum Luster
Streetwear Nail Polish Remover
Nivea Purifying Face Wash (for Combination to Oily Skin)
Revlon Touch and Glow Pimple Corrector

Things I feel they should work on..most of the things were out of stock..like I had a few things in my cart and they were OOS the next day..so had to replace them..for the Lip Glosses, they had just 3 shades available..and not the shade I wanted..I was interested more in Mirrored Mauve..so definitely more stock and variety is what they can improve on..and shipping is free above Rs.1000/- which I feel is a little too high..it should be around Rs.400-500/-

My Experience with Indiebazaar.com

About: Founded in February 2012, Indiebazaar is a name coined by combining the word Independent (‘Indie’ in short) with ‘Bazaar’ (a marketplace). As the name signifies, Indiebazaar was created to bring together a new breed of independent artists, designers and musicians and give them a satisfying and profitable outlet for their creativity.

Our mission is to help you flaunt your individuality by delivering to your doors, items and experiences that are truly unique. Take a look at the wide selection of products on display and we promise you’ll be absolutely spoilt for choice.

Our team comprises a group of friends with experience as diverse as web technology, event management & banking. They have graduate and post graduate degrees from NSIT, Delhi & IIM Ahmedabad.

They bring different sellers and shops together..and stock everything from Jewellery sets, Apparel, Footwear, Home Decor, Home Furnishing, Stationery, Accessories like watches, hair hands, fashion hair accessories, etc

You will get all the ethnic and traditional stuff here..jewellery sets, earrings online for your sarees and dresses, to hair bands, aztec print home stuff, unique watches to chocolate bouqets to handmade bags..

They have credit cards, debit cars, net banking, online transfer and even paypal for international transactions..there is cash pickup before delivery with extra charges of Rs.40/-

Each seller may have different policies for shipping and payment options..and each product from different sellers are shipped individually.

I got this austrian diamond and beads maroon and green set…it includes the maang tikka too..and this gold beetle filigree leaf design earrings with white pearl..

The set has 24K gold polish..commonly known as 1g jewellery..and comes with a certificate of authenticity card. I would have liked a little more green in the set..its hardly visible..just around the red..

Both came nicely packed..in a plastic box with bubble wrap inside too..and the earrings came inside a red potli..and I received both within a span of 7-8 days..

Overall I love the site and the jewellery and earrings collection especially..I would only wish they had cash on delivery too..I know there are different sellers..but then even they should keep the COD facility..it is much convenient as a buyer..

Have you shopped from Indiebazaar ? Do you like traditional jewellery ?

My Experience with WellnessOcean.com
About Wellnessocean: Wellnessocean takes a holistic approach to well-being. By holistic, we mean considering the whole person and the choices an individual makes to nurture their body and mind – the air they breathe, the moments they take, the products they put in and on their body.

Wellnessocean strives to meet the highest standards of quality and sustainability. Our mission is to enhance your sense of well-being through quality and natural products and to bring to you preventative and restorative lifelong wellness solutions. We believe in providing essentials for a healthy body and mind, by using high quality products that are free from harmful substances and have undergone strict quality control processes.

Our products are never tested on animals. There is no need for that simply because people have been using the same ingredients for thousands of years. Working with natural and traditional products has the advantage that dangerous substances and their effects on our bodies are known, unlike the effects and damage that can be caused by synthetic products that have been in use for no more than 100 years.

Most of our personal care products are gender neutral. They are especially beneficial for people with problem skin and for those with Multiple Chemical Sensitivities and Allergies to commercial products. Choose from a variety of categories, such as Aromatherapy, Ayurveda, Yoga, Dead Sea Cosmetics, Organic Make up, Argan Oil Skin Care, Vitamin Skin Care and many more.
Relax…and enjoy browsing and shopping from the convenience of your home or office.

So they selected these two T- Shirts and a Black Dress.

A Plain Black Top

A Simple Yellow Tee

An Overlapped neck Black Dress with a buckle on side

And I got this cute soft toy for my room..it has a half sleeping moon and a smiling star below it..! Super cute 😀

And the site is fuss free and easy to navigate..only the disabled right click is a problem 🙁 The thing they can work on is..include more dresses and designs..and a lot more variety.

Some of my picks:

Celina Dress

 

Illusion Dress

 

Expedition Dress

 

May Fair Dress

Princess Dress

 

White Paisley Overlap Dress

 

Wrap Front Play Suit

With so many new e-commerce sites coming up everyday..here is another one 😉

They have very limited number of brands for now since they have just started…they would add more later..currently the brands available are Colorbar, Lakme, Maybelline, Tips and Toes, Vega, L’oreal Hair Colors and Olay, Lotus and Garnier in skin care.

They have various payment options including COD and Free Shipping above Rs. 300/- and Rs. 50/- below that..

You get a confirmation of the order and the order is delivered in 2-3 days mostly..they also offer small freebies like a keychain, earrings,etc according to the amount of the order..

My order came in a slender long envelope kinda box..but it was slightly open from one side which I did not like..though the products were secured properly..

Open from one side

Here is what I ordered..

Colorbar Velvet Matte Lipstick, Colorbar Kajal and two Vega brushes..the lipstick is 06/11 manufactured which is ok but the Kajal is 10/10 manufactured..i.e very old stock I feel…I also got a pair of earrings which are kinda cute..but they too look a little old 🙁

What I feel they should improve on..is checking the manufactured or imported date and not keep or send the customers old stock, include many more brands and even in brands there are very less number of shades available and try and change the background and layout of the site to make it look more appealing and feminine.

Overall its a nice site..and if you want to buy Colorbar or Tips and Toes and do not find it available near you..you can try purchasing here..

Here is a special discount coupon for you guys..use coupon code “7X7AC514” to get 10% discount on a minimum purchase of Rs. 500/-. The offer is valid till 26th Jan 2012.

Happy Shopping 🙂

P.S: I was offered a voucher to shop for but it has not affected my opinion of the site.
