There are many Chinese salespeople at Dubai Airport, so you don’t have to worry about not being good at foreign languages. However, many handicrafts are produced in China and need to be carefully selected.

The cosmetics duty-free shop at Dubai Airport has a wide range of cosmetics and perfumes, and a large number of big brands. Almost all the world-famous big brands can be found there. L'Oreal, Estee Lauder, Lanc?me, Guerlain, Chanel, YSL, Shiseido, MAC, Dior, Clinique, etc., all have much lower prices than in China. For example, L'Oreal facial cleanser and Estee Lauder Repair Eye Cream are half the price in China, which is very cheap. If you want to buy LA MER, a top skin care brand, you must not miss it because its price is comparable to other brands in the world. Comparisons in major airports are the best!

I have bought Estee Lauder, Olay, and L'Oreal at the Dubai Airport Duty Free Shop, and the Olay sea milk I bought at that time was more cost-effective. The most worth buying is L'Oreal among skin care products. I have always heard that L'Oreal is cheap in Middle Eastern countries, but I didn't expect that a set of the rejuvenating and anti-wrinkle series in China costs about 600 yuan. It only costs 87 dirhams at the Dubai Airport Duty Free Shop. Total about 170 yuan. The one with seven functions probably costs 60 to 70 yuan, or something like that. L'Oreal's eye cream costs 169 or 149 in China, and it's still 60 to 70 yuan when you buy it.

Some are average. For example, Arden is cheaper to buy in Hong Kong. However, there are usually no samples delivered at the airport. If it is convenient, the local supermarket is also good. There are samples delivered, so it may be more cost-effective

Gold jewelry and watches are also worth looking for. Many of the world’s top brand watches are priced about the same as those in Switzerland, so they are worth buying. There is no luxury tax on watches here, so they are more cost-effective. Rolex, Omega, Cartier, Longines and other famous watches are available, and the prices are similar to those in Switzerland. You may wonder why the gold jewelry counter (gold and platinum) is so popular? It turns out that the price of gold here is 20 cheaper than in China, and there are many styles, but it is difficult to find 24K gold, only 18K, and the most is 22K. It’s really cost-effective to buy gold jewelry here for elders or friends! Because not only is the price cheap, but the style is quite special!

Cigarettes and alcohol are also good and worth buying. Buying Chinese cigarettes in Dubai is very cost-effective. For example, Panda and China Tobacco are only equivalent to about 1/2 of those in China. It is worth mentioning that foreign trade cigarettes such as Camel, 555, Marlboro, and Winston, which are popular in the country, are also quite cheap. There are king size cigarettes in a pack of 5, and the price is 186 dirhams.

The prices of famous wines such as Chivas are also cheaper than those in China. Although chocolates are more expensive than those sold in Germany, they are much cheaper than those in China. Many Chinese friends use carts to buy chocolates!

The most authentic souvenirs - sand paintings, shisha and camel crafts are not to be missed. The sand painting is composed of seven colors of sand, symbolizing the seven emirates of the United Arab Emirates. Each type of sand is unique to the local area. In the United Arab Emirates, both men and women smoke shisha, and the tobacco paste comes in various fruit flavors, which is light and non-addictive.
