Cosmetics prices is generally cheaper at the airport compared to town. Check the airport cosmetics price list for more info. Airport counters do have some LE bundles or sets or gwps that town don't offer.
Purchase them when you are departing to exempt yourself fr paying GST. Just provide the SA with your passport and flight no. or your boarding pass will do.
If you are buying them on your arrival, you need to pay the 5% GST, on top on the airport prices.
HtHs and bon voyage!

im currently working at the airport and cosmetic products there are definitely cheaper than the ones selling in singapore departmental stores...
they have special promotions and bundles which you can grab at reasonable prices..
for some brands such as clinque, they come in traveller's pack for those cosmetics

I'm also torn between buying cosmetics at the airport or in town as i'm going to europe soon. Just realised that the GST exemption at airport, i save 5% but with the citibank tangs card, i get 8% rebate. So am sticking to buying cosmetics and skincare at tangs
