Reviews from Google
The only Drug - Makeup - Bodycare store in Pai offering to an international and more exigent type of travelers (mostly from China) a large choice of good and affordable * European-Swiss and International products. They regularly run promotions like Buy1Get2 or 1Bath Articles You can ask for a fidelity Card with other offers. Unfortunately none of the otherwise very friendly and trained staff ( to be not pushy) has any real command in English. * affordable compared to high end products but more expensive in Thailand then in Europe due to high import taxes.
Sooo much skin care hair care and cosmetics!❤️ Well stocked with a ton of western, Japanese and Korean Options Great variety
The worst service ever! The staff saw me standing at the checkout but pretended not to notice. After 5 minutes, an employee came over but didn’t apologize or even greet me.

Tips for Visiting Markets & Shopping
Haggle at Markets, Not Malls
Prices at market stalls are negotiable — start at 50–60% of the asking price and meet in the middle. Fixed-price shops and malls don't haggle. Smile and keep it friendly; aggressive bargaining is considered rude.
Arrive Early or Late
Vendors believe the first sale of the day is lucky — you'll often get a better deal if you arrive right when the market opens. Late in the evening, sellers may also discount to avoid packing unsold goods.
Be Cautious with Tailors
Bangkok has excellent tailors, but also many tourist traps. Avoid anyone offering suspiciously cheap suits or who approaches you on the street. Ask your hotel for recommendations, read reviews, and always get two fittings.
