About KlipShop

KlipShop is a British online beauty retailer carrying salon haircare alongside skincare, make-up and fragrance, with a range that runs from professional names to smaller labels.

What it stocks

Haircare is the strongest section: shampoos, conditioners, masks and treatments, styling products, colour and developer, and electricals such as dryers and straighteners, with salon brands including Kerastase and L'Oreal Professionnel. Around that sit facial and body skincare, make-up and nail products with the tools to apply them, men's grooming, supplements, home fragrance and perfume for men and women.

Salon products bought without the salon

Professional lines are formulated for people who have been trained to use them, and a couple of them behave differently to what you find on a supermarket shelf. Colour and developer are the obvious case: mixing ratios and processing times are not suggestions, a strand test is genuinely worth the twenty minutes, and bleach on hair that has already been chemically treated is how breakage happens. Treatments and bond builders often want to be used on a schedule rather than every wash. If in doubt, ask your stylist which product they use on you and buy that one, rather than guessing from a description.

Buying fragrance and skincare online

Perfume is difficult to buy unsniffed, and the reliable method is to try it on skin somewhere first and then order the size you want, since a scent that is lovely on paper can turn on you. Check the volume as well as the price, because eau de toilette and eau de parfum at the same millilitre count are different concentrations. With skincare, introduce actives one at a time and give each several weeks, and always patch test. Check expiry and the period-after-opening symbol on anything you are stockpiling in a sale.
