Hello Friends!
This is my first shopping experience from Healthkart. Do read on to know more regarding my overall shopping experience!
My Overall Shopping Experience:
I have been interested in shopping from Healthkart since a long time, as they offer wide range of products from personal care, Health care to Beauty related cosmetic products.As they do not offer COD to my place,I had restrained buying from them. Nowadays everyone is posting their Lakme absolute haul from Healthkart.I was very much interested to try some products from Lakme absolute range and when I saw Healthkart has become official partner of Lakme Absolute then I mailed them and asked if they could add COD to my place.They flatly refused saying there are other options like Internet banking and Demand draft too.
Once while checking online payment options at their website I saw one could pay using SBI Maestro card too.I had never ever shopped before using debit card, it was a risk but the products were tempting enough.So without much delay I placed one order on 1st December and the second order on 2nd December.Immediately by second of placing my order I received a payment receipt and tracking number showing my products have been dispatched.Today on December 8, I received all my products in good condition.I also got two Lakme color crush nail polish worth Rs 125 free with each order.I checked the manufacturing date and saw everything were new.I am quite amazed with the quality of Lakme Absolute Moonlit highlighter, its simply awesome.The matte lipstick Elegant bloom is dark pink color with mauve undertone, its good lipstick but certainly not worth the price as you require 4-5 swipes for opaque coverage and its definitely not transfer resistant.Will review all my haul stuffs very very soon.
My First Order:
-Lakme Silk Liner- Jaded Mint
-Lakme Absolute Moonlit Highlighter
My Second Order:
-Lakme Silk Liner- Gypsy Green
-Lakme Absolute Matte Lipstick- Elegant Bloom
Haul Pics:
I got the two nail polish from Lakme free with my order.Alas I am not at all a nail polish fan, so may give these away in a giveaway! |
Here I present you my SCARY Lip Swatch! :p Anyways I need 4-5 swipes for this much pigmentation! Very disappointed with the lipstick quality! |
After 4 Swipes, I got this result! |
Its definitely not Transfer Resistant! |
The Silk Liners are damn pigmented, these are the result of just a single swipe! |

Cons of Shopping at Healthkart.com
-They offer COD to very limited places. (They are continuously covering up new places for COD Service)
-Earlier there were discount on Revlon Products but now you don't get any discount. :(
-They offer free shipping only on purchase of products worth Rs 500.Simply discouraging!
-They sometimes also send old stuff.(One of My Close friend's Experience) :((
-I wish they could give at least 5 % discount on Lakme Absolute range.(They intend to give 15% cash back in near future)
-I got all products after 6 days which is kind of delay when compared with other Shopping sites. (This is only due to DTDC courier people and Healthkart is not responsible)
-No one replies in their chat portal.
-They don't offer flexible service suiting to customers need and interest. For Eg- I requested them to send products to my place by COD,but they flatly refused whereas several other sites have sent me my order through COD. =((
Will I Shop Again?If they agree for COD then I definitely intend to shop from Healthkart.com in future.
Update: Sonal from Healthkart.com had mailed me and clarified several issues.
-First of all I got my order after 6 days because the DTDC people took 4 days to send me my order from Ranchi to my hostel.
-Second they have also added that they will offer COD to several places in due course of time.
-Third they are willing to offer 15% cash back on Lakme Absolute products in few weeks.For these reasons, I think I will surely shop from them in near future. Thanks a lot Sonal for clarifying everything.
