I am a hardcore shopaholic and I admit it! I love online shopping more than strolling from stores to stores in the mall. Recently I discovered an online store – Aplava.
Aplava.com is a startup online beauty store which brings to us the best quality of Indian and International brands together. The website has everything stocked from skincare to makeup to baby care. The best thing about the website is that they work directly with manufactures and authentic distributors which guarantee authentic and genuine products every time you shop. There are also recommendations based on your beauty score that you are asked for at the time of registration.
I recently made a purchase with Aplava.com and did the unboxing on snapchat (@makeupert) and today’s post is going to be a website review. Read on to know more about my experience –

My shopping experience with Aplava.com
I placed my order with Aplava.com on 30th May and zeroed on L'Oreal Paris UV Perfect Aqua Essenceand Lakme Absolute Flutter Secrets Volumizing Mascara
. I received an email and SMS with the tracking details and I received my products on the 3rd of June (very quickly!). The shape of the box was buckled up but there wasn’t damage to the products inside. I opened my package and everything was bubble wrapped securely to avoid damage during transit. Inside were an invoice and a Thank You card from the founders of Aplava.
