Ask any woman if she has ever made any cosmetic purchases that she regrets, and the odds are she will open a drawer or hold out a basket full of cosmetics and skin care that is wrong for her and reminds her of the money she has wasted. Cosmetics companies and retail outlets finally have wised up to the fact that women want to be able to test products before they spend their hard-earned money on them. There are many ways to test cosmetics for free and ensure you only buy the products that are right for you.
At the Cosmetic Counter
Go get a free makeover at a department store to test new colors and formulations to see if they are right for you. That way you can test them in all different kinds of lights and see how they wear. Ask the consultant to write down what she uses so that you know what you liked and may want to purchase later. Take advantage of "free with purchase" promotions by department store brands, especially if you wait to buy the products you loved from your free makeover. Ask your sales consultant about upcoming promotions if she doesn't tell you herself--she will usually be glad to let you know.
Direct Sales Cosmetics
Talk to a consultant for a company such as Avon or Mary Kay. Many of these representatives keep a handy supply of samples that let you try before you buy. Also, companies like these often offer return policies that let you exchange or get your money back for products you buy and use but do not like. Some do free makeovers as well.
Magazines and Catalogues
Check women's magazines and beauty product catalogs for free samples of beauty products. DHC, for one, encourages its customers to try different products by placing samples in its catalogs, as do Avon and Mary Kay.
On the Internet
Visit company websites to get free or cheap product samples. Smashbox and Everyday Minerals and L'Oreal, among others, offer generous sample sizes for no more than the cost of shipping. Also take a look at free sample sites that feature all kinds of products from well-known manufacturers. They often have cosmetic samples.
