The men's section has a great selection - if aftershave is the only thing you require.

I bought from www.feelunique.com a few times.
Free postage! all delivered in 3/4 days...
I've bought tan (xen tan/fake bake/ st. tropez) and kerastase from them with no problems.

They have YSL touche eclat for €18.66

Hi there was a post recently in bargain alerts about this site. They deliver within the day in Dublin if you order before 12 - would highly recommend. Got some perfume and lippies and a mascara off them before. All genuine stuff and really good prices.:)

I was looking at their website as well but I haven't ordered anything from them-they seem much cheaper than some of the other websites that I use. Do you know if postage is included in the price?

Hey there's an old thread about Bodyhaven.ie here in Bargain Alerts.

On a side note I've used Strawberrynet.com and that's been grand.

I have used Strawberry as well but found it expensive for perfumes-have used Cheapsmells.co.uk for perfume and aftershaves

I know someone who had problems with strawberry net - bought skincare products that turned out to be imitation products - ie, cheap knockoffs! Buyer beware.

Oh god-how did they find out they were imitation? The main reason why I don't use them as much is the VAT issue-they refund me the cost but it is messy-I have to send them the VAT reciept from the Post Office:(

I only bought from Strawberry.net once and all was fine and legit. They now include VAT so no more getting stopped at customs as they've prepaid it.

They brought a skincare product they had been using for some time because it was cheaper on the site than in a bricks n' morter shop.

The product made them break out in an intense rash on their face. "Weeping" sores and all that. They went into a the shop where they had previously bought the item - to ask about the product/allergies etc - they in turn sent it in to their lab who confirmed that it was a counterfeit/fake product. Scary stuff, I know it sounds like an urban legend but it's true.

Wow, that is scary, especially as I have been buying Dermalogica products from them for years. Now that they have introduced the prepaid VAT, I'm not using them, as www.lookinggoodguy.com is cheaper.
