Consider the price before buying

Normally, genuine imported lipsticks are not too cheap, at least 500 – 600 thousand VND. For high-end lipstick brands such as Mac, Louboutin, 3CE… the value is up to several million VND. It’s best to refer to the lipstick brand’s homepage for product information. If there is a big difference in price, be skeptical about it!

2. Try identifying gold lipstick

You take a lipstick and use a Western gold ring to rub on the lipstick stain. If the lipstick stain changes color from red to black, your lipstick contains many toxic chemicals, of which lead predominates.

Additionally, you can also use silver to check. If silver does not change color, congratulations. Your lipstick is genuine lipstick. This is the simplest and most convenient way to identify fake lipstick and genuine lipstick.

3. Genuine lipstick can often check barcodes and product codes

On any genuine lipstick product, there is a barcode. This is the basis for customers to easily identify real and fake lipstick through scanning the barcode.

– Compare the information on the barcode with the information on the packaging so that if it matches, it is the real product. – If the information on the barcode does not match the packaging information, or displays any information, it is a fake product.

In addition, closely observing barcodes can also help users detect the difference between real barcodes and fake barcodes.

Genuine lipstick product lines often have careful investment in the outer shell. When given two lipsticks, at first glance it will be difficult to distinguish which is genuine and which is poor quality. However, if we pay close attention, we can completely distinguish them with the naked eye.

Usually, high-end products will invest carefully in the outer shell. The outer shell has enough stamps and feels sturdy in the hand. Counterfeit goods are often lighter and have looser lids and shells.

On the packaging of counterfeit goods, it is possible to see unclear printing patterns, such as small or too blurred print. And be aware of the product you intend to buy, sometimes counterfeiters can change some words on the product, such as capitalization or lowercase. The quality of the box and packaging of many fake lipsticks is not as good as the genuine product, so it can be easily recognized with the naked eye.

5. Pay attention to lipstick quality during the first uses

Lipsticks from big brands are always soft, non-clumping and do not cause dry lips. And if the lipstick you are using causes one of the above conditions, you should pay attention because it may not be genuine lipstick or the lipstick’s ingredients are not suitable for your lips.

Thus, there are 5 ways to help girls recognize what is genuine lipstick and what is fake lipstick. Therefore, apply these simple methods right now to be able to choose the most suitable products for yourself!
