Valen’s Vanity Square

I know I have to live on a tight budget these days and shouldn’t be shopping unnecessarily, but this won’t stop me from trying and testing beauty products. LOL! Of course, I only buy skincare items that I truly need.

For example, I recently bought H20+ Marine Toner from the online shopping mall Acmamall.com, as my bottle of Simple Soothing Facial Toner is going to be empty soon. I have never tried H20+ skincare products, but I have seen their outlets in department stores and the name sounds so, umm, ‘refreshing’? Haha! So I decided to give it a try, and for your information, it is less than a hundred bucks, okay?

While this is not my first time shopping with Acmamall, it is my first time buying from their beauty department. Previously I have purchased from them book titles that were not available in local bookstores.

As for beauty products, go take a look and you will be amazed by the product range Acmamall carries. They are all popular ‘branded’ skincare items, make-up products and fragrances - from Anna Sui to Bobbi Brown, Biotherm, Clarins, Estee Lauder, Hillary Duff, Kanebo, Kate Moss, L’Occitane, Lancome, Origins, Shu Uemura, Sisley, Shiseido, SK II, Vivienne Westwood, etc.

There seems to be discounts for their beauty products all the time. Previously there was also a free delivery promotion. Currently, they are having a 3% cash dollar rebate on all beauty products. Whether the discounted price is far more cheaper than the usual retail price, I’m not sure. However, I do find out that the price of Shiseido’s Ultimate Sun Protection Lotion in Acmamall is RM25 cheaper than what I paid for at Shiseido’s store in Jaya Jusco@MidValley.

So, if you are too busy to shop for your skincare products or cosmetics in department stores, shopping online with Acmamall seems to be a convenient way to get the things you need, and have them delivered right to your doorsteps. However, if you need your items urgently, don’t expect to receive your goods in 2 or 3 days’ time. I received mine one week later, which was not too bad. Anyway, the delivery dates are always indicated next to the product details, so you can decide whether to order and wait, or head out to the shopping mall instead.

Also, you would first want to compare the products’ online price at Acmamall and their usual retail price to make sure you are enjoying savings by buying online. Hey, nowadays every cent counts, right?
