    Here are some insider info

    1. retailmenot.com

    2. sephora.com (with every purhase you get FREE samples)

    3. some stores will give out mesages to those in the know (usually members, get membership through a membership card*)

    *ask stores that you like if they have this. Usually you have to pay an amount or have a certain number of recipts.

    Hanging around your local mall, in the make up section, they sometimes offer free makeovers and such. Also, at the ekka, there are usually a lot of tiny testers and samples in the showbags, although they may not be free. Also, getting a job at cosmetics companies usually comes with a few freebies. My father used to work for Avon.

    Go to any mall, and walk into Macy's.

    Or just the mall itself. You will have people coming up to you asking if you want a free make over

    or want to try their eye shadow or something while your walking the halls to get some where.

    They just try and pull you over and ask you if you tried their stuff, if not, they'll try and convince you to. (: l0l

    And to try make up or perfume, go to Macy's and all the perfume spots will have samples out ALL OVER THE PLACE with anyone to just try. You don't even have to ask.

    But if there is a certain kind of perfume you want to "smell" and they don't have sample out, just ask if you could try a sample of it and they will be more than happy to get one out and give you a spray, on a card that is.

    If you want to try their make up, ask one of people behind the counter if you could try it out.

    Just randomly say something like "I like this color eye shadow, is there any way i could try it?" if so, give it a go.

    One word: Ask. "can i try some to take home? "

    they let you do this at Sephora, i know.

    try makeup counters at the mall. tell them you want to get a trial sample to see if you like it. see what they say.
