Deyga is a natural skincare and haircare brand from Tamil Nadu. It sells beetroot lip balms, aloe vera gel, rice water shampoo and 100+ other plant-based products online, through its own app and in its own stores. We went through its live website screen by screen, from the first visit to the repeat order, to see exactly how it turns browsers into loyal customers. Below you’ll find the tactics, the psychology behind them, and what you can steal for your own brand. Want it built for you? See our funnel strategy & build service.
*The cart drawer says “Trusted by 20L+ Customers Worldwide”; we haven’t verified this independently. Screenshots were captured from deyga.in on 27 Sept 2026; prices and offers change often. Points marked Inferred are our marketer’s read, not something visible on the site.
⚡ The 60-second version
Deyga runs a “pure, traditional, proven” concern-led funnel. Visitors pick a problem (dark circles, hairfall, chapped lips) instead of an ingredient, and every route leads to a low-ticket hero product with thousands of reviews. Trust comes from celebrities, press, awards and real stores in Chennai, Coimbatore and Erode. Then an offer ladder closes the sale: pack-of-2 “best value” options, combos priced at exactly ₹999, free shipping at ₹999 and free gifts at ₹1,299 and ₹1,498.
Hero SKUs acquire
Aloe Vera Gel (₹390, 2,633 reviews) and Beetroot Lip Balms (₹240–₹350, 2,800–3,500 reviews) are cheap, giftable first purchases.
Concerns route traffic
Story circles, “Shop by Concern” tiles and a “Help me choose” page send people to a fix, not a catalogue.
₹999 is the magic number
Free shipping, two bestselling combos and the minis bundle (5 @ ₹999) all meet at ₹999, and the gifts sit just above it.
Offline trust
Own stores with 4.8–4.9 star Google-style ratings and thousands of reviews make an online brand feel local and real.

🗺️ The funnel map
Six steps take a visitor from stranger to repeat customer. Tap any layer to jump to its breakdown. New to funnels? Start with our 4-stage funnel framework.
Landing: the homepage first screen
The first thing a visitor from an ad or search sees.
- Rotating offer barCycles through free shipping on prepaid orders above ₹999, a free Oat Milk FaceWash Mini above ₹1,299, a free Charcoal Bodywash Mini above ₹1,499 and the Deal of the Month. The offer is the first thing anyone reads.
- Rotating search placeholder“Body care”, “Lip care”, “Foot care”… The search box suggests categories to people who don’t know what to type.
- “Help me choose” badgeA round green badge in the header opens a concern router for undecided visitors (see Stage 2).
- “Join · Reward” linkLoyalty sits in the header from the first second, with a yellow “Reward” pill to catch the eye.
- Badges in the menu“Must Try” on Best Sellers and “5 @ 999/-” on Minis turn two menu items into offers.
- Benefit-led hero slides“2X Stronger and Healthier hair”, “Say goodbye to dark circles” with Pack of 1 / Pack of 2 prices, “A lip balm can’t be iconic”. Each slide reads like a static ad with one CTA.
- Press wallThe Times of India, The Hindu, Grazia, Femina, Elle, HerStory, The Week, DNA… scrolling right under the hero.
- Rewards pill + chat bubbleFixed bottom-left on every page. Rewards opens a phone-number login; the bubble is a Bitespeed chat widget.
📱 Built for the thumb
- Offer bar on topThe free-gift threshold is the first line on a phone screen too.
- Join · Reward next to the logoLoyalty stays visible even on a 390px screen.
- Full-width searchSearch gets its own row, not a hidden icon.
- Same hero slidesOne benefit and one button per slide, readable at thumb size.
- Concern stories above the foldInstagram-style circles start right after the press strip.
- App-style bottom barHome / Cart / FLAT 20% OFF / Rewards / Account. The centre button is an offer, not a menu.
Put your offer ladder in the top bar and rotate it (free shipping → gift 1 → gift 2). Make the centre of your mobile bottom bar an offer button, not a menu. Add press logos right under the hero: a cold visitor should see proof before the first scroll ends.
Discover: concerns, bestsellers & combos
- “What’s on your mind?” circles14 story-style circles, each a single hero product (Lip Balm, Under Eye Cream, Aloe Gel, Rice Water Shampoo…). One tap to a product page.
- Deal of the Month“Flat 20% OFF Under Eye Cream”: one rotating monthly deal gives regulars a reason to come back.
- Celebrity CelebratedShampoo & Conditioner framed by who uses them, not what’s in them.
- Trending NowThe Beetroot Lip Balm gets a FOMO label.
- Category tabs on Best SellersFace / Hair / Body / Lip / Travel Minis let people filter without leaving the homepage.
- Category tabsEach tab is a mini storefront.
- Emotional badges“Loved by All ❤️”, “Top seller 🥇”, “Viral Lip Balm ✨” instead of plain “Bestseller”.
- Rating + review count4.8★ (2,633), 4.7★ (3,499): huge numbers, right under the name.
- “You’ll save ₹50”A strike-through price plus the saving in green, so there’s always a deal in view.
- “India’s most searched on Google” badgeA borrowed-authority sticker on the lip balm image.
- Add to Cart on every cardNo product-page click needed for repeat buyers.
- Brand-value marqueePlant Powered · Performance Driven · Skin Loving · Science Forward, scrolling between sections.
- Combo tabsBest Selling / Body / Face / Hair Care Combo: bundles get their own mini-store.
- “Salon Feel” badgeAn outcome label on the hair combo.
- “You’ll save ₹349”Savings in rupees, not percent, so the number feels bigger.
- Two combos at exactly ₹999ABC Combo and Vitamin C Daily Glow both land on the free-shipping threshold. That’s deliberate.
- Combo reviewsABC Combo shows 4.8★ from 4,604 reviews: the bundle has its own social proof.
- Shop by ConcernSkin ageing, Hairfall, Chapped Lips, Dark Circles, Pigmentation, Sun Tan, Acne. People shop by problem.
- Plain-language problem copy“Hair thinning, breakage, density loss, and receding hairline”: the visitor recognises their own problem.
- Soft “Explore” buttonsA low-commitment CTA for people still researching.
- Real, diverse facesMen and women, older and younger, Indian skin tones. Most visitors can find someone who looks like them.
- Brand-value iconsHandcrafted with Love · 100% Pure · Traditional Recipes · Cruelty Free · Sustainable.
- Header entry pointThe “Help me choose” badge is on every page.
- Three concern pathsFace / Hair / Body concerns with illustrated faces. It works as a simple router rather than a question-by-question quiz.
- Offer bar again“Shop above ₹1,499 – FREE Charcoal Bodywash Mini” follows visitors to every page.
- “Join our Community” email signupFooter email capture on every page, plus app download buttons further down.
Build your navigation around 5–7 concerns, with real faces that match your buyers. Price at least one bestselling combo exactly at your free-shipping threshold. Then turn “Help me choose” into a real 4–5 question quiz: Deyga has the entry point in the header but not yet the data capture behind it.
Build trust: celebrities, awards & real stores
- Reviews grouped by productBeetroot Lip Balm / Aloe Vera Gel / Charcoal Bath Bar… so each hero product gets its own proof.
- Celebrity firstActress Kajal Agarwal leads the carousel: “I am absolutely addicted to Deyga.”
- Relatable job titles“IT Profession”, “Marketing Manager”, and a buyer “from the UK”: ordinary people next to the celebrity.
- Awards stripThe Economic Times Green Entrepreneur Award, Grazia Most Loved Brands, Femina Power Brands, Times Business Awards 2020 “Brand of the Year”.
- Awards againThe strip scrolls, so visitors see several badges without clicking.
- State tabsTamil Nadu / Kerala / Karnataka: a regional brand that’s proud of it.
- Store ratings with review countsChennai 4.9★ (2,856), Coimbatore 4.8★ (1,441), Erode 4.8★ (8,265). Offline reviews prove online trust.
- Store photos + Direction / Share / CallReal shelves and one-tap directions. Inferred This also makes the brand feel safer for first-time cash-on-delivery buyers.
If you have any offline presence (a store, a kiosk, a stockist, a pop-up), show it on the homepage with ratings and photos. Group testimonials by product, lead with your most famous customer, and follow with ordinary job titles so the proof feels both aspirational and relatable.
Product page: where the sale is decided
- “Loved by All” + “Freshly Made” badgesSocial proof and freshness on the first image.
- Rating + count4.8★ (2,633 reviews) with a verified tick, right under the title.
- “15K+ Bought in Last Month”Recent-purchase volume in green: urgency and herd proof in one line.
- “Made to solve” rotatorCycles through Acne Scars → Dandruff → Dryness → Sunburns. One product, four search intents.
- Reward LoginNext to the price: log in to see member offers.
- Cross-sell banner“Flat 20% off Under Eye Cream” pushes the Deal of the Month from someone else’s product page.
- Before/after gallery thumbnails“Hydrates Skin”, “Calms Redness”, “Heals Acne”, each with named customers.
- Sticky Add-to-cart barProduct, price, pack selector and button follow the visitor down the page.
- First-order code“Get 10% off on your first order. Use code DEYGA1010”, with a one-tap copy button.
- Pads cross-promoA second coupon card sells a different category (COMFORT10).
- “BEST VALUE” Pack of 2₹625 vs ₹780 (save ₹155): the badge sits on the middle option on purpose.
- Bundle optionGel + Charcoal Bath Bar at ₹749 (save ₹91): a cross-sell built into the variant picker.
- Instagram-style counters♡ 120.8K · 💬 2,633 · Share. Product pages that look like social posts.
Why ₹999? One Aloe Vera Gel costs ₹390, so a single-product buyer is ₹609 short of free shipping (that’s exactly what the cart says). A ₹999 combo jumps straight to tier 1, and the first free gift is just ₹300 further.
- Trust marqueeOrganic Ingredients · Freshly Made · 100% Natural · No Harsh Chemicals · Traditional Formula.
- Before/after drag sliderVisitors play with the proof, so they spend longer on the page and remember the result.
- Accordion detailsDescription, Skin & Hair type, Benefits, Ingredients, Tips: the page stays short for skimmers.
- 3-step Daily RoutineCleanse → Tone → Moisturise, with the current product as step 3.
- Named products for steps 1–2Charcoal Face Wash and Tea Tree Toner: education that is really a cross-sell.
- Simple usage stepsTake required amount → apply as dots → massage. Removes “am I using it right?” doubt.
- 4.78 out of 5 from 2,633 reviewsA precise average feels more honest than a round 5.
- Star distribution2,136 five-star vs 6 one-star, visible at a glance.
- Customer photos & videosReal texture shots from buyers’ kitchens and bathrooms.
- Write a reviewA prominent black button keeps the review count growing.
- Recent dates, “Pictures First”Reviews from this month, sorted to show photos first.
Before you scale ads (or rebuild your store), add three things to each hero product page: a “Bought in last month” counter, a Pack of 1 / Pack of 2 / bundle picker with the badge on the middle option, and a “How to use” routine that names your other products. Put a first-order code with a copy button above the fold.
Minis, cart drawer & checkout
- “5 @ 999/-” menu badgeThe minis bundle is advertised in the main menu on every page.
- “Travel Mini” tagsEach mini is framed for travel, which makes it easy to add “just one more”.
- Low entry prices₹180–₹375: a low-risk trial of the full-size bestsellers.
- “Authentic. Transparent. Sustainable.”Brand values even on a collection page.
- Gift threshold in the bar“Shop above ₹1,499 – FREE Charcoal Bodywash Mini”. Minis are the perfect top-up.
- “Add items worth ₹609 to get Free Shipping!”The exact gap, in rupees, at the moment of purchase.
- 3-tier progress bar₹999 Free Shipping → ₹1,299 Free Gift → ₹1,498 Free Gift x2. This is the strongest AOV lever on the site.
- Trust strip“Brand of the year | Trusted by 20L+ Customers Worldwide”, repeated right where doubt peaks.
- Add NoteA gift-note option (gift icon) for the gifting crowd.
- “Products loved together!”In-cart upsells with a “Most Sold” badge and one-tap +Add, sized to close the gap to the next tier.
- Checkout button with UPI iconsPaytm / PhonePe / GPay logos on the button, plus a “₹ saved so far!” tag above it.
We stopped at the cart drawer and did not open checkout. GoKwik’s scripts load on the site and power the phone-number login below, so checkout is most likely GoKwik’s one-page flow Inferred.
Install a cart drawer with a multi-tier progress bar and in-cart upsells (on Shopify: Kaching Cart, Upcart or Monk). Put tier 1 at about 2.5x your hero product price and tiers 2–3 about ₹300 apart. Offer a minis bundle priced exactly at tier 1, and put UPI logos on the checkout button (see our marketing tools reviews).
Retention: bringing customers back
- “Login now to avail best offers!”The login is sold as a way to unlock deals, not as account admin.
- Phone number, not email+91 mobile field only. One OTP and the brand has a WhatsApp/SMS-reachable contact.
- Pre-ticked opt-in“Notify me with offers & updates” is checked by default, which quietly builds a big marketing list.
- Powered by KwikPass (GoKwik)The same identity is likely reused at checkout for pre-filled addresses Inferred.
- Rewards pillAlways visible bottom-left, and also a tab in the mobile bottom bar.

⚔️ Strengths vs. gaps you can exploit
💪 Their strengths (don’t fight head-on)
- Thousands of reviews on every hero SKU, plus celebrity and press proof
- Real stores with thousands of Google-style reviews
- A clean ₹999 / ₹1,299 / ₹1,498 offer ladder with low discount depth
- Phone-first identity (KwikPass) + app + email + chat
- Cheap, giftable hero products (₹240–₹390)
🎯 Their weaknesses (your openings)
- Offer overload: a rotating top bar, deal banners and two coupon cards on one product page
- “Made to solve” rotates four problems for one gel, so the promise is fuzzy
- “Help me choose” routes to categories but doesn’t ask questions or capture data
- Heavy third-party scripts (15+ script hosts we counted) may slow mobile pages
- Very broad catalogue for a “pure, simple” brand
One product, one promise
“The only gel made for post-acne marks”: a specialist claim beats a multipurpose one in ads.
A real quiz
5 questions → a routine kit → email and phone captured. Deyga has the door but not the room.
Speed as a feature
A light, fast mobile page wins cheap Meta traffic that bounces off heavy stores.
Calm pages
One offer per page. A cleaner layout feels more premium than stacked banners.

- Launch 5–8 creatives per ad set and refresh every 2–3 weeks. Kill ads with thumb-stop rate below 25% or CTR below 0.8%.

| Metric | Typical range | If outside range |

❓ Frequently asked questions
What is Deyga’s marketing funnel?
Deyga runs a six-step concern-led funnel: an offer-led homepage with press logos, concern stories and Shop by Concern tiles that route visitors to hero products, trust built with celebrity testimonials, awards and its own retail stores, product pages with “15K+ bought”, pack options and before/after proof, a cart drawer with a three-tier gift ladder, and phone-first rewards login, app, email and chat for retention.
How does Deyga increase average order value (AOV)?
It stacks pack-of-2 “best value” options, product bundles in the variant picker, combos from ₹699 to ₹1,549, a 5 @ ₹999 minis bundle and a cart progress bar with free shipping at ₹999, a free gift at ₹1,299 and two gifts at ₹1,498. Its most-reviewed combo costs exactly ₹999.
What is a free-gift ladder in e-commerce?
A free-gift ladder unlocks a better reward at each cart-value threshold and shows a progress bar such as “Add ₹609 more for free shipping”. It uses the goal-gradient effect: shoppers who are close to a reward add one more item. Set tiers about 15–25% above your most common cart value.
How can a new natural skincare brand compete with Deyga?
Don’t fight its review volume head-on. Pick one product with one clear promise, build a real quiz that captures data, keep pages fast and calm with one offer each, and copy the ₹999-style threshold and pack-of-2 mechanics that raise order value.
What Meta ads budget split works for a D2C skincare brand?
A common starting split is 60–70% to broad prospecting (TOFU), 15–20% to engaged retargeting (MOFU), 10–15% to cart and checkout recovery (BOFU) and about 5% to existing customers. Adjust it after 2–3 weeks of your own data.
