One of the newest and fastest growing methods of obtaining and distributing free makeup samples is through the use of social media sites. By using Twitter and Facebook cosmetic companies, and other companies alike have a way to instantly reach millions of consumers with the click of a mouse.
I recommend that you check your favorite makeup company’s site to see if they have a Facebook or Twitter account.
Facebook is the biggest social media network going right now. By following your favorite cosmetic company on Facebook, you will not only have access to the latest news about products, you will also be able to obtain free makeup offers through their page. Sometimes a company will offer a coupon or free makeup sample simply for “liking” their Facebook page. These are some of the easiest samples to get, in some cases they even come in the form of printable coupons that you do not even need to fill out a name or address for. Always check in with your cosmetic company’s Facebook page to see what the latest offers or new is, you may be surprised with the number of free cosmetic samples you can pick up on this valuable website.
Another up and coming asset to companies for advertising is Twitter. While the free samples may not be as plentiful, there are still good reasons to follow manufacturers on Twitter. By being kept up to date through Twitter, you will know of any promotion or sale the second the company posts the news. The “tweet” may even direct you to a website or page where you can obtain free samples of makeup. Both of these social media networks are simple to join, and best of all they are free. Not only can you keep in touch with friends, relatives, and celebrities, you can use them to your advantage by getting free makeup samples.
