Shocking truth about makeup counter samples/testers/ Šokantne istine o testerima

| 04/19/2011





The brushes isn’t your biggest worry, it’s rather the makeup you are testing. A sales rep cleans the brushes, but people keep sticking their fingers in the testers. People (mainly woman) walk right up and grab a tester/sample product and put it right on their body ( face, lips, cheeks…etc). All the bacteria which they picked up along the way was left in the sample/tester product.
Imagine the contamination … YUCK!!! 


In short a word of advice, 
Do not put your fingers in the samples or better said NEVER  put it on your face. Always test it on the back part of your hand since you never know who and where they touched or put that sample(s). 
If you are going to / or need to test a foundation make sure it’s in a pump form. 
Squeeze some foundation out, wipe the pump tip and around it with an anti-bacterial wipe and use the product. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND that this is NOT 100% sterile  and you still might “get something”. 
Makeup samples are never “sterile” since many people have touched the product and it does have bacteria on it. Bacteria multiples the more bacteria gathers… 


I think I just heard my skin scream!


Do you sample products? If so, how? with your fingers, brushes? 
Have any other advice about sampling products? Share it with use in the comment section! Thanks :D

Baš jučer otišla u DM i vidim curu kako prste stavlja u proizvod i sva se naježim i onda skužim da juj je stavila na ruci,  i onda sam odahnula ! :)
Kada idete testirati proizvod nemorate se brinuti o čistoći kisteva jer (veličina) vizažiste odmah ih očiste nakon korištenja. U Sephori uvijek možete testirati neke proizvode sa kistovima. No, opasnost ili točno problematika leži ne u kistevima već u samim testerima. 
Veličina cura, jer npr u DMu / Kozmu / Bipi nečeš sa kistovima moći testirati proizvod, morati ćeš umoćiti svoje prste u proizvod da viđiš teksturu i boju. I baš zbog toga sve ti testeri su PUNI bakterija. 
Bila sam jednom u Bipi i jedna mlada cura (teenagerica) koja očito nezna ove činjenice je uzela tester ruž za usne i direktno ga na usne nanila…. ja sam glasno rekla “iuuuuuuuu” i komentirala frendici o tomu kako će sigurno nešto pokupiti. 
mislim “F- U-J” i WTF??? što nije logično da je taj  proizvod prošao kroz mnoge ruke?? i da nije više sterilan? 


Da zaključim ovu temu, moj savjet je … 


ukoliko ste prvi koji testirate proizvod nemate se čega brinuti, ali ako niste onda imate.
Savjet za svu šminku jest da ga testirate na ruci, ali problem nastaje kada je riječ o puderima. 
Ukoliko je puder u nekoj “tubici”….. (nastavak ispod slike)

onda sa sobom nosite anti-bakterijske maramice. 
Pritisnite pumpicu i izbacite malo proizvod vani onda obrišite pumpicu i onda uzmite uzorak pudera… to je “sigurnije” ali opet nije 100 posto sigurno jer nikada nemožete znati da li su baketrije ušle u proizvod. 

Nasigurnije je ne testirati NIŠTA na licu. 

Da li vi testirate proizvode? 
Ako da kako? sa kistevima ili prstima? 
Ako imate koji dobar savjet uvezi testiranja kozmetičkih proizvoda podjelite to s nama u komentarima.
