I have always had a fascination for cosmetics from the US because of their good quality and affordable nature like MakeupGeek eyeshadows, Colorpop cosmetics etc. Fearing the shipping charges & customs charges, I always quit at the Shopping Cart stage. Similar is the story with buying clothes from Chinese websites which are also much cheaper than ones found in Singapore. I have tried decoding taobao.com so many times and then finally given up hope because everything is in Chinese.To help resolve such issues and to also provide very affordable shipping charges, we have EZBUY, which is a website that does the purchasing/shipping from USA, Taiwan, and China at a very affordable rate.

Why to Shop from The Us when you have everything right here in Singapore?
Now this is a very debatable question!
Most of the makeup brands are US based and we will obviously get a good price when you buy them from the source.Certain restricted US brands can also be bought through ezbuy which is an added bonus. You are going to be bypassing so many stages by purchasing directly from the direct website in the US.
What is Ezbuy all about in more simple terms:
If you are looking to buy products from the US or from China at a cheaper rate and also pay low shipping charges, Ezbuy offers delivery to a local address in these countries,which will, in turn, be shipped by Ezbuy agents residing there to you. A great initiative, I would say and I am so happy now that getting things from the US , be it cosmetics or clothes , is going to be an easy task.
I am going to talk about buying cosmetics from the US which is one of the most interesting things for me , being a beauty blogger.

In both the cases, the product would reach you at a nearby pickup point and you just need to go there & collect your order.
Which is cheaper & better?
Now obviously, each of the services was found to meet different purposes like 'Buy For Me' is going to help newbies to purchase their desired item, track the package and inspect it for them before shipping it to Singapore.The 'ship for me' is the cheaper option because you are going to end up paying less for this service because there is no agent fee involved. You are going to make a direct purchase from the website of your choice and ship it to the US address provided to you by Ezbuy. So both have their own advantages in different situations.
You will receive notification from Ezbuy once your product reaches the US address so that you can pay for the shipping as per the weight of the product and receive it in Singapore.
What are the Shipping rates from the US?
The shipping rate for products from the US is 3.99 SGD for every 500 gms. You can read more about the shipping rates here.
Key Pointers:
1: ezbuy offers repacking service for free :
This was something that I found to be really interesting because they receive your product, check it, repack it in a way your product will be safer as well as much lighter.
2: ezbuy has the best shipping rate in Singapore :
Ezbuy does not have base charges or fuel sub charges which makes them unique and the cheapest in the country.
3: Payment can be made in SGD in ezbuy :
Some merchants in the US might accept just US credit cards, at that point, you can choose the 'buy for me' option and make payment in SGD.
Overall, I am totally impressed with this concept and I am eager to try out their service as early as possible.
Recommendations:
1 : They are a growing website & I just wish they make their website faster loading.
2 : How I wish they soon start shipping from India so that I can buy clothes from brands like AND, Global Desi etc which I love.
