How to check who sells MERIT on Amazon

1. Browsing from outside the US, set a US delivery address first; any ZIP will do, 10001 works. Without one Amazon fills the buy box with import and reseller offers. That is how Charlotte Tilbury, Dyson and Clinique once looked unstocked to us, when Amazon.com sold all three.
2. Read the two lines beside Add to Cart, “Ships from” and “Sold by”. For MERIT you want Amazon.com or a store in MERIT's name; on the listings we track, neither is there.
3. If another name is there, open “Other sellers on Amazon”. Amazon.com or the brand sometimes sells the same listing one row down, at the same price or close to it.

   Milani Cheek Kiss Cream Blush – Nude Kiss

   for MERIT Flush Balm Cream Blush

   $9.32 against $30, 53% less per ounce ($44.04 / oz versus $94.50 / oz). Both list Octyldodecanol and Vitamin E.

   Same sheer, buildable cream blush in a compact on the same kind of emollient base, octyldodecanol and vitamin E in both, so it melts into skin rather than sitting on it.

   What it does worse: Milani's balm-to-gel formula doubles as a lip tint and adds pomegranate, watermelon and rose oils, and its list includes rosin (colophonium), a common contact allergen worth a patch test.
