How nice is it to receive free samples with a purchase? So many products to try!
However, it often happens that after the initial enthusiasm they are put away and forgotten in a drawer.
They end up accumulated , taking up space and expired ! And what we love them for so much, that is, to let us try new products, is not exploited!
Here are our tips to help you make the most of them!
How to make the most of samples?
The first step is: don't hoard samples.
When you buy on Yumibio you can always choose the samples you want to receive, based on your needs, so you don't end up with products you can't use.
Try to use the samples as soon as possible and keep them in a place where they are visible, it would be a shame to let them end up forgotten at the bottom of a drawer!
Organize them well, divided by function.
- face cream samples
- face serum samples
- eye contour samples
- hair cleansing samples
- hair styling samples
- face makeup samples
- …and so on!
Samples are defined as single-dose, but there are products, such as face and eye creams, in which a single sample is sufficient for more than one use.
To make the most of the contents of the entire sachet, you can use two different methods:
-
pour the contents of the sachet into an empty, clean and dry jar. This will allow you to dose the product at each use, without waste. I find this technique very useful in the case of liquid products such as shampoo, conditioner and shower gel that would otherwise leak everywhere once the sachet is opened;
- do not open the sachet following the tear, but make a small hole with a clean needle . The hole will allow you to take only the necessary product at a time. This technique is my favorite in the case of eye contour, serums and face creams, in which it is necessary to use a little product at a time.
Take them around
If you go to the gym , play sports or dance then include samples in your beauty case that you put in your bag so you can use them without taking up space with full-size ones!
Likewise, when traveling , especially if you travel by motorbike or by plane, you will not waste space and you will pass through airport security without any problems!
You will travel light but without giving up any step of your beauty skincare routine!
Free samples are also great to keep in your purse! Hand cream for sudden dryness and make up, like mascara and foundation, are perfect for a sudden touch-up.
Give away the samples you can't use!
Are you allergic to an ingredient? Do you have a van for dry skin but your skin is oily? Ivory foundation color and you are a latte?
Have a sample swap party!
Organize an afternoon of exchanging samples with your friends ! You will avoid throwing them away and it will be useful to receive samples that are suitable for you!
Have fun with your friends
Organize an evening of beauty and makeup experiments with your friends! Have fun with never-before-used makeup and curious products! You will halve the free samples and have fun.
Important date coming up? Advent calendar!
Not just for Christmas! Create an advent calendar for your best friend's birthday, a little bag with a beauty sample for each of the 25 days before her birthday, to then get to the gift on the most important day!
A nice idea for new mothers too!
Donate them to those who can't afford to buy cosmetics
Another great idea is to donate your free samples to a women's charity and support organization . Find out there are some in every city, you'll do a good deed and you won't waste products!
It perfumes the bathroom
If you have some perfume samples that you just don't feel pleasant wearing, then use them to perfume the bathroom! Just spray a few puffs inside the toilet paper tube! A trick to always have the bathroom perfectly perfumed
