Dear People of the Makeup World, STOP Testing Drugstore Makeup

Dear people of the makeup world,

It is not ok to swatch, try on, squish, squeeze, touch, smush, smash, unwrap, open, or test makeup at the drugstore. You are not at Sephora, you are not at your favorite makeup counter, there are no testers at the drugstore and the products you’re swatching, smashing, and smushing are ones that other people actually want to purchase and OWN so stop making a mess of them! Not only are drugstores losing money because of you but you’re making a lot of makeup lovers cry and become rather pissy when they see a limited edition product or color they want only to open it when they come home and find it has been freaking used.

Please stop.

Thank you!

This is a public service announcement and no evil drugstore testers and squishers were harmed in the making of this post but if they continue on their destructive path I cannot be held responsible for my actions or the actions of other makeup addicts.

So, how annoyed are you when you find a limited edition lipstick or a blush or some other product at the drugstore only to discovered it has been opened and swatched or even used.

I’ve purchased products like Biore Nose Strips only to get home and realize the box held ONE STRIP! What?!

Sometimes I’m rushing and I’ll get excited to see a new limited edition product and I’ll stupidly buy it without checking it first. Head home, open it, and realize someone freaking swatched it or even squished it.

That’s so fracked up.

Needless to say this is very annoying!

What’s the worst drugstore experience you’ve had in regards to people using an item?

Do share!
