Selling Skin Care Beauty Products On eBay

If you want to sell a skin care beauty product on eBay, you will certainly find a lot of competition. Makeup and skin care is a thriving - if competitive - market, but the problem is that it's all quite expensive. Different makeup reacts in different ways based on your skin type so how can the average person afford to try a multitude of products until she finds the one that is right for her situation?

One way, of course, is to find free makeup samples. This site has coupons for online shopping that are all focused on makeup and there are some really terrific bargains. I compared a free coupon for "Relastin" with eBay auctions for the same product. It costs $8.95 (for shipping and handling) for TWO bottles, plus a pair of exfoliating gloves. Here are the eBay prices for only one bottle (and every single one of them sold):

* $39.99 + $7.99 shipping
* $40.00 + $9.00
* $42.52 + $9.00
* $49.99 + $5.99
* $8.95 + unspecified
* $39.99 + $7.99

Verrrrrrrrrry interesting ... I'm going to have to pursue this further. But as an aside, check out this picture for a skin "peel":


Ouch! Just looking at that makes me hurt. I don't think including a picture like that is very good marketing. When customers envision a peel, they see the result of glowing, tight skin. This is simply a reminder of pain.

As the former founder and CEO of a multi-national company selling fragrances and skin care products, I can only say that this sector offers very little real value for money. The cost of packaging products outweighs the cost of the product itself! The real cost of a high quality eau de parfum here in the UK, retailing at £25, is likely to be under £1, packaging would add £2.00 and distribution costs another £2.00. Skin care items follow a similar pattern.

Check out the picture. Why would someone to this to themselves is just beyond me. This looks just like second degree burns. What vanity and what a waste.
