Discrimination of real and fake cosmetics

Searching it, you can find that there are many well-known brands of cosmetics in online shopping. Most of them are imported and the price is lower than one, which will make you dazzled. If you ask about such a low price, you will often be told: these products are

If at this time you still have doubts about its quality, the merchant will tell you again: My products are all counter genuine and can be inspected by the counter. In addition, there are three certificates of national acceptance when the imported cosmetics enter the Chinese market (three The certificate refers to the documents and labels of the imported goods that have passed the customs inspection, record filing, etc.). So dispel all your concerns.

When buying cosmetics online, such as Taobao, our common thinking habit is to choose sellers with good reputation and low prices, I feel that this is guaranteed! Actually, otherwise, I once talked to a Taobao dual diamond seller who also sells imported cosmetics. He divided the cosmetics in the store into genuine and parallel imports, and guaranteed that the genuine products sold were absolutely imported genuine products. , Counter quality. On the surface, it is more sincere, allowing customers to choose according to their needs. At first I thought he had genuine cosmetics. I wanted to ask him about wholesale. After chatting for a long time, he told me the truth: they are all parallel imports. The credibility can only be used as a reference. Some businesses rely on diamonds obtained by abnormal means. Red hearts, especially beware! So how do you buy online to buy genuine products? Note: Price is not the main factor in deciding to buy!

First of all, the price is too low, which violates the law of value. Real genuine products, including imported cosmetics, must have a uniform and fixed price even if they are directly obtained from the manufacturer, and this price of the manufacturer will not affect other brands Channel sales, such as counter prices and sales. Remember that no brand manufacturer is willing to harm its own interests and let go of the price at will. Therefore, the seller will naturally look for a source with a lower purchase price, so general parallel imports and imitations will be the best choice!

Secondly, do not think that the price is high, it must be genuine. Using the psychology of one cent price and one merchandise, the price is set higher, but the fake is sold, after all, there are still some!

There are also some sellers' products from some reputable merchants, such as the famous sasa. Many people think that from there, they will be authentic, and the quality is absolutely guaranteed! In fact, this may not be the case. In the Taobao community, I read an article written by a buyer who has been shopping in SASA s Hong Kong physical stores for a long time. It mentioned that SASA is famous for selling parallel cosmetics in Hong Kong. Guarantee, but the buyer who buys must have a pair of eyes, otherwise it is easy to buy the product in question.

To state one point, it is not to say that imported cosmetics sold online are fake, and many sellers sell genuine imported genuine products. What I'm talking about is just some of the imported cosmetics sales market, let's say something for everyone to understand!

According to the market conditions analyzed above, the shopping guide will give you some personal suggestions.

First, purchase cosmetics online, try to ask about the origin and domestic agents, such as Maybelline, L'Oreal, etc. from Suzhou, as well as the production batch number, etc.

Secondly, I would like to say that imported cosmetics are mainly designed for the skin of westerners and are not suitable for us orientals. Do not think that imported ones are necessarily good. Brand cosmetics sold in the country are basically designed for Orientals, such as domestic L'Oreal and Avon, which are more suitable for Chinese people.

Third, communicate more with sellers and understand the situation of sellers and products in many ways, and not be confused by the reputation of the merchants.

Fourth, when buying cosmetics, it is mainly because you are not suitable for yourself, and you do not want the brand and price to become your purchase.

Fifth, use Alipay and other trading tools.

CIQ discrimination method. (You must be optimistic about the true and false CIQ!) ^[1]

The state requires that CIQ marks be added to imported cosmetics. Each CIQ mark has a set of computer-encoded numbers. After the CIQ mark on the box of genuine goods is torn off, the computer-encoded numbers are automatically affixed to the product's outer box. Both the fake and parallel imports do not have the CIQ mark. For fakes with the CIQ mark, there are two cases:

a. Can't be completely removed from the product packaging box;

b. After the fake CIQ is torn off, the number is on the back of the torn off piece, not on the product. Do not use CIQ cosmetics without US imports

Cattle and sheep brain tissue is one of the main raw materials of cosmetics. The recent outbreak of "mad cow disease" (bovine spongiform encephalopathy) in the United States and a death case have made the United States a major epidemic country of "mad cow disease". In order to prevent "mad cow disease", the Zhejiang Inspection and Quarantine Bureau adopted urgently imported cosmetics from the United States and must provide the original certificate issued by the American Cosmetics, Cosmetics and Aromatic Compounds Association (CTFA) or the Independent Cosmetics Manufacturers and Marketers Association (ICMAD), otherwise No entry allowed.

Finally, the inspection and quarantine agency reminds consumers that in addition to issuing a certificate of conformity to the United States, cosmetics that pass the inspection and quarantine inspection will be affixed with an inspection and quarantine mark ("CIQ" mark) on the products before they can be sold or used in the Zhejiang market. Cosmetics imported from the United States without the "CIQ" logo, please do not buy them.

Some even say that there is a CIQ tag. In fact, as long as the genuine product is torn apart, the CIQ laser tag will be numbered below. This is not made by counterfeiting. At most, they are imitating a CIQ laser tag. Codename.
