Online health/beauty shops prepared to ship internationally?

Any suggestions for an online store offering beauty/personal products which will ship internationally?
I'm looking for a store selling hair/personal products (hair wax etc) which is prepared to ship to India and/or Nepal. Many such as Amazon say they do but then won't when it comes to the ordering stage. Any suggestions would be appreciated, bonus points if they are nearer S Asia, but it doesn't matter if not.

Actually, they're in Hong Kong - sorry! They do claim that they post all over the world.

I can vouch for strawberrynet: they certainly ship to Europe so I don't see that they wouldn't ship to India. They handled the couple of orders I've placed with them quickly & efficiently. Their main lines are cosmetics & perfumes, but they do list some hair-care products too.
A couple of annoyances I've had ordering from them (neither one of which are their fault) are that I have to pay import-duty when the shipments arrive, and that my (UK) bank seems to have a policy of automatically questioning internet purchases from Chinese vendors as potentially fraudulent, so in the wake of both of my orders, I have been obliged to contact & reassure the bank.
