Broke? Here’s Where to Get Free Makeup Samples
They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend, but in my opinion, free makeup samples are! Freebies are a great way to try new products or stock up on ones you’re running low on when your wallet is a little less than empty. (And we’ve all been there, right?)
So whether you’re broke or still looking for your everyday lipstick, these are the places to get your sample on! It’s like Costco on a Sunday… except better, because makeup’s involved! (With that said, I have no problem taking a veggie taquito or baked potato sample along the way. #justsayin)
Without further ado, here are websites to troll when you’re craving a freebie.
1. The Target Sample Spot
To get in on the Target Sample club you have to answer a few survey questions first, and then you’ll be granted access to whatever samples they’re promoting at the moment. While there’s no guarantee that they’ll have the samples you’re looking for, it’s definitely worth checking on a regular basis. Click here to try.

2. Freebie Sites!
The freebie sites listed below are my personal favorites. They are constantly adding new samples on a daily basis, which means you’ll never run out of things to try!
Pro Tip: Never use your primary email to claim your freebie. This way, you can avoid getting Spammed. Also, never, ever give out your real birthday for security reasons.

3. P&G Everyday
I have received a couple of nice samples from them. The great thing about P&G is that their sample and coupon selection change frequently.

This site speaks to every girl’s inner Glamazon. With a comprehensive roundup of the latest deals and steals in the beauty freebie world, this site is definitely worth visiting on a regular basis.

5. Oh Yes, It’s Free
This site is a haven for up-to-date deals and steals. The IT’s FREE dropdown menu on their site lists the latest Free Makeup Samples by mail and Beauty Freebies from your favorite brands, as well as some you have yet to discover.

6. Free Makeup Samples on Facebook
A lot of makeup companies give out free makeup samples on their Facebook page.
Find your favorite makeup company and like them on Facebook. When they have a new promotion or free makeup sample available, their Facebook fans will often be the first ones to find out!

7. Free Makeup Samples through an Order
A lot of beauty stores will send you free makeup samples if you place an order online. Here are some of my favorites that regularly send samples:
1. Sephora
2. Ulta
3. Smashbox
4. Odacite
Some places will even let you request specific samples, so keep a vigilant eye for freebies before checking out.

8. Get Free Makeup Samples from Test Groups
You can also join product test groups in order to sample and provide feedback on new products. After giving your opinion, makeup companies will often give you the full product size for free.
Get started by joining the L’Oreal Consumer Participation Panel. The surveys are usually short and you get to keep the full product after testing.
Physician’s Formula also has a PF Buzz program where you can test their new products and keep them when you’re finished.

The first couple of days of every month, Allure Magazine gives away thousands of free beauty products to those who request it through their Allure Free Stuff program.

10. Free Makeup Samples from the Stores
Try asking for makeup samples and you might be surprised at the stash you’ll walk out with. Any place that sells makeup has the capability to send you home with some free makeup samples. While you’re shopping for makeup, you can ask for some sample sizes. The trick is to ask nicely though. Seems simple enough, right?
