In the wake of the pandemic, online shopping has become a part of our daily lives.
Yet consumers in this new digital age continue to navigate the challenge of hunting for authentic products against swathes of counterfeit goods online. Cosmetic, skincare and hair care brands have the highest rates according to brand protection experts like Daniel Shapiro, vice president of Red Points, shared in an interview with Vogue Business. In 2020, he noted a 56 per cent increase in counterfeit products sold online across Red Point’s 700 brand clients in the first half of the year.
If it seems too good to be true, it often is. The dangers of counterfeit cosmetics include rashes, swelling, inflammation, breakouts and allergic reactions. In some cases, the damage can leave scarring and increase skin sensitivity. Fake beauty products are usually produced illegally in unregulated factories and often contain high levels of bacterial contamination and animal waste. Fraudulent products can appear convincingly well made, making navigating online shopping challenging even for seasoned beauty veterans.
Fortunately, with the rise of e-commerce come companies dedicated to enriching your online retail experience.

The holy grail of moisturisers, this 3-piece Radiant Hydration Set from La Mer allows you to choose between the 60ml Crème de La Mer, The Moisturizing Cool Gel Cream or The Moisturizing Soft Cream. Each selection comes with The Eye Concentrate (5ml) and The Concentrate (5ml). Not only can you expect well-hydrated skin, but to plump out and smooth fine lines for a healthy and radiant complexion.
This luxurious cleansing oil goes beyond cleansing to deeply hydrate skin. One of the best makeup removers on the market, the natural-origin formulation easily removes all traces of makeup from light to heavily pigmented looks. The legendary cleansing oil is formulated with Japanese Tsubaki oil, derived from Camellia seeds which leave the skin clean, nourished, and smooth. Gentle around the eye area, it cleanses thoroughly without damaging eyelash extension glue. It works well to prepare the skin before daily makeup application and as part of a cleansing routine.
This Lazada 9.9 Exclusive five-piece set features Estée Lauder’s Revitalizing Supreme+ Bright Power Soft Crème (50ml), the Advanced Night Repair Serum (15ml), Advanced Night Repair Eye Supercharged Gel-Crème (5ml) and two bottles of Micro Essence Treatment Lotion Fresh with Bio-Ferment (15ml).
The lightweight Revitalizing Supreme+ Bright Power Soft Crème moisturiser leaves skin luminous and youthful. A powerful combination of Beautyberry extract and Vitamin C addresses dull and discoloured skin from the inside out. The addition of Moringa extract boosts the skin’s natural collagen production, leaving skin bouncy and silky smooth. Tested and proven on Asian women, this fast-absorbing soft cream works day and night, achieving the best results when used after repair serums.
In a special Lazada 9.9 Exclusive deal, Lancôme is bundling its latest revolutionary serum with Clarifique Brightening Plumping Milky Cream (15ml), Clarifique Dual Essence (50ml) and Douceur Galates (50ml).
The Lancôme Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate Serum is an anti-ageing serum that accelerates skin recovery for youthful-looking skin strengthened through microbiome science. Specially formulated with probiotic Bifidus extract and hyaluronic acid, the serum soothes and repairs the skin’s barrier while visibly hydrating skin.
