The Good Stuff
Organised Store
One visit found the shop clean, beautifully arranged and easy to browse, including lipsticks, foundations and powders.
Unhurried Browsing
A customer said staff offered advice without pressuring them, leaving time to try products and decide independently.
Product Results
Reviews describe the lipsticks as rich, smooth and long-lasting, while the makeup gives a premium, flawless finish.
Tips for a Better Visit
Check Shades. For foundation, test the recommended shade in natural light before buying; one shopper found the mismatch only then.
Request Testing. Ask to try the product on your skin where possible, especially when comparing foundation or serum shades.
Confirm Appointments. If booking a makeup appointment online, confirm the slot with the store first; one 4pm booking met a makeup artist starting at 5pm.
Track Pickups. For online orders, verify the collection status before travelling, as one customer received no app, email or message for nine days.
Check Minis. If you want travel-size products, ask about availability before shopping because mini sizes have been reported out of stock.

The Bottom Line
C in Port Saeed, at City Centre Deira, is a cosmetics shop where you can buy foundations, lipsticks, powders and other makeup, with the main draw being hands-on product advice. Reviews often describe helpful shade matching, product explanations and application guidance, including makeup training sessions and one-to-one makeup appointments. The store itself has been described as clean, well organised and easy to browse.
Customers also appreciate being able to try products and take their time without feeling pushed. Lipsticks are praised for a rich, smooth, long-lasting finish, while the makeup range is described as premium and coverage-focused. Service is not completely consistent.
Several shoppers report rude or unhelpful interactions, and one foundation buyer discovered in natural light that the recommended Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15 shade was wrong. If you are buying complexion makeup, test the match carefully before paying. Online-order collection has also caused frustration: one customer waited nine days without receiving an update, although the item was still in the shop.
For makeup appointments, confirm the booking directly after using the website, since a reported 4pm Quick Fix appointment did not align with the artist’s 5pm start. Mini sizes may also be unavailable.
