Samples of your favorite beauty products can be found relatively anywhere that cosmetics are sold. Although they are widely available, many women still do not take advantage of the benefits associated with using cosmetics samples. With that being said, below is a list of reasons as to why you may want to refrain from buying full-sized products when you can get the cosmetics samples for free.
Hosting a Slumber Party
As a parent (or a teen) it can be a great opportunity to gather the girls together and have a girl’s night in. Giving each other makeovers is the perfect way to make the entire event complete and with the help of cosmetic samples, you won’t have to worry about spending money on makeup palettes and individual tubes of lipstick. Instead, you can simply gather as many cosmetic samples as you can from makeup stores and makeup counters in department stores. You can then delegate a certain amount of samples to individual guests at the party (to help reduce contamination issues).
Beginners to Makeup
Every person has to start somewhere when they become old enough to wear makeup. It could be quite advantageous to refrain from buying your children full makeup sets and simply rely on cosmetic samples until they gather an understanding for portion control and how to apply the cosmetics. Plus, you can provide your children with high quality cosmetics without having to pay the price for high quality products. Cosmetic samples are incredibly useful for women who are simply beginning to use makeup.
Traveling Companions
One of the most difficult aspects to traveling or flying on a plane is to not be able to bring your favorite cosmetics due to the amount of liquids that you are allowed to have in your carry-on. Instead of having to ration from big bottles to small bottles, cosmetic samples are convenient and simple to slip into your purse or your carry-on luggage. Plus, it will take an ample amount of them to go over the limit of liquids allowed on an aircraft. Therefore, you can essentially carry everything that you need without having to worry about the weight.
Small Gifts
Another great benefit associated with cosmetic samples is that they are great small gifts to give to friends or family members. If you’re planning a party, consider slipping an eye shadow sample into your invitations to give your guests a little treat prior to the event.
