Review : www.Nykaa.com

A few days back, I was in the mood for buying a lipstick for just no reason.

I wasn't well so I couldn't go out and it was late, but all hail technology, there was online shopping! :D

I came across a Nykaa.com add somewhere and thought it just the place.

Alot of you might have already used this website. This was my first time with the website (thanks to boredom).  What I really like is that you get a variety of products - from the cheapest to the most expensive here. There are cool discounts and offers also.

My experience with Nykaa.com 

I had seen so many advertisements of this website - that I thought I had to give it a try. Luckily, out of boredom, I felt I had to get an Elle 18 Lipstick. They're cheap and all. But since I wasn't well, I thought that this website could just be the help I needed.

Navigation on the website is really easy. They have these tabs that showcase the kinds of products they have .

They have free shipping on orders over Rs.500 and Cash on Delivery option for orders over Rs.1000

Nykaa.com has this amazing concept of "Loyalty Points"
Here, 100 points = Rs 1.00. 

If your billing amount is "X", You get "X" number of loyalty points.

So if I order something worth Rs.2000, I get 2000 Loyalty Points, and that equals to Rs.20.

I can collect Loyalty points as I shop, and get a good discounted rate on my next purchases.

As a start, you get 2000 Loyalty Points by default in your account. 

With my order, It had a Rs.50 shipping charge. The product I ordered was for Rs.100.

On my total on Rs.150, I used the 2000 Loyalty Points for a Rs.20 discount. 

The checkout and payment method is easy. I used my Debit Card and placed the order in 5 minutes (not kidding)

Shipping and Packaging

I placed my order somewhere around midnight on 28th January, and you won't believe that I received it on 30th January in the afternoon. It was so quick! 

The packaging was fab. It was neatly taped and had the To and From addresses printed. 

Upon opening, I found the invoice and the bubble wrapped product.

 What I really really liked was that they bubble wrapped the product so neatly
