5 Essential Tips Before Purchasing Skincare or Makeup Products

0
We’ve all been there, standing in front of shelves packed with beauty products, wondering which ones are truly worth the splurge. Let’s make sure you don’t end up wasting money (or harming your skin). These are the five must-know tips before you buy:




Beauty Products don't work 100% (every time)

Either high-end, affordable, it doesn't work 100 percent all the time. Some products may do so, but it depends on their value and ingredients.


And sometimes, affordable beauty products can work best for your skin

That doesn't mean it's affordable or cheap; it will not work on your skin [or can only have minimal effects]. Some products work, but at an affordable price. 


But do not forget to always check the ingredients

Some products may say it is good for normal to dry skin, for any type of skin, but when you check the ingredients, you may get rashes or other skin allergies from it.


Avoid hype: look beyond influencer endorsements

It’s tempting to buy a product just because it went viral on TikTok or your favorite influencer swears by it. But remember, not everything shown online is as real as it looks. Influencers sometimes feature products they don’t even use consistently, especially if it’s a paid promotion.

Instead of relying on endorsements alone, check authentic reviews, ask friends who have tried it, and see if the product addresses your personal skin concerns. What works for someone with clear, filter-enhanced skin might not give the same results for you. Always trust your own research over the hype.


And to take your time in reading product reviews

Take time to read reviews of the products that you want to buy, it could give you a second thought about buying it, or it could make you buy the product. Thus, make sure these product reviews are true.


Patch Test Before Fully Committing

Even if a product looks promising, don’t apply it all over your face right away. Your skin might react differently from others, and the last thing you want is irritation or breakouts. Always perform a patch test by applying a small amount to your inner arm, behind your ear, or along your jawline. Wait 24–48 hours to see if there’s any redness, itching, or discomfort.

This small step may feel tedious, but it can save your skin (and your wallet) from a bad reaction. Once you’re sure the product is safe, you can gradually incorporate it into your routine.


Lastly, if all fails, you may need to ask a specialist

Asking a professional or a specialist to the skin of what product is suitable for your skin is a better idea for people who will buy cosmetic products who have a skin problem.
