The biggest sale of the year, the 9.9 sale, is a few weeks left and we are all very excited.  We are all suckers of sales and discounts but are you ready for it yet?

During these times, where the pandemic had our budgets tight, we must be wise on spending our money. Just because it is on sale doesn’t mean that we need it. It is not bad to splurge from time to time though, because you deserve it.

Here are a few guidelines from us on how to do your ultimate “9.9 sale” skincare shopping:

1.KNOW YOUR SKIN TYPE

It is not good to just splurge on different products but it is wise to know your own skin type beforehand. Knowing your skin from deep within and what it needs will help you in shopping for what is only essential.

2. KNOW YOUR BUDGET

Know how much money is allotted for your skincare needs. You don’t need to buy everything in your cart in one go. If you have the budget, go ahead and buy whatever you want but if you need to manage it, then find a good alternative that will suit your budget. There are some products that are more affordable but does the job perfectly.

3. KNOW WHERE TO BUY

You need to consider a lot of things when buying your skincare products. Some important things to note are legitimacy, reputation, price competitiveness and product range. Some sellers are selling cheaper products but doesn’t have all you need. You will actually end up spending less if you buy from one seller who has a variety of options than buying from different sellers. 

4. KNOW WHAT TO BUY

It will save you both time and money if you research ahead what you need before the d-day. It will also help you steal deals faster especially if the stocks are limited. Thinking of what to buy on d-day is not a good idea. The stocks will run out, before you know it. 

5. KNOW THE DEALS

Your favorite e-commerce site will surely spoil you with vouchers and discounts on 9.9. However, it is not something that will just be applied easily upon checkout. Some vouchers can be found on some landing pages and it is for you to find them out. They don’t just give it out freely that easy. When you know where to get vouchers, you will really save a lot upon checkout.

6. PAY ONLINE, AVOID CASH ON DELIVERY

E-commerce sites are offering e-wallets to promote cashless payments upon delivery. They actually gave you more vouchers and discounts when you pay online. It is not very hard to pay online now, a lot of online payment methods are now available  that is why you just need to buy from legit sellers, for your buying confidence. Not only will you get additional discounts, you will also lessen the spread of the virus by going cashless.

These are just some of the basic things to consider when going skincare shopping on 9.9 but of course your money, your rules. You don’t really need to follow these, but you know, they might help 🙂

Goodluck and happy shopping!
