We get questions about original versus fake Dermacol products all the time. So here are six rules to make sure you're buying the real thing.

1. Buy only from verified sellers

Always buy from the verified resellers listed on the official Dermacol website under the "where to buy" tab: dermacolmake-upcover.com/where-to-buy.

If an e-shop isn't listed there, it's not a registered reseller — and you'll most likely end up with a fake product.

2. Don't buy Dermacol from Chinese retailers

Dermacol is a Czech brand sold all over the world, but it chooses its resellers carefully. There are dozens of them — not hundreds or thousands.

3. Avoid sites like Wish, eBay and AliExpress

The vast majority of Dermacol listings on these marketplaces are counterfeit — and fake products have been spotted on Amazon as well.

4. Watch out for prices that are too good to be true

A price like 1 USD or 1 EUR is a red flag. You simply won't find the original Dermacol Make-up Cover at rock-bottom prices — if the deal looks unbelievable, it almost certainly is.

5. Read store reviews before you buy

If an e-shop has no reviews, don't buy there. Real stores have real customers — and real feedback.

6. Dermacol does not sell through WhatsApp

You often tell us you've ordered makeup via WhatsApp. Dermacol has no sales through WhatsApp, and none of its registered resellers use that app for selling. If someone offers you Dermacol over WhatsApp, walk away.

Mini FAQ

How can I be sure a shop sells original Dermacol?
Check whether it's listed among the verified resellers on the official Dermacol website. If it's not there, don't risk it.

Are all marketplace listings fake?
Not every single one, but counterfeits are so common on Wish, eBay and AliExpress that buying there is a gamble not worth taking.
