Brilio.net - Before deciding to buy makeup, especially lipstick and mascara, you definitely need to try sample products first to find out whether they are suitable or not. Providing sample products for a beauty shop is a natural thing. However, please note that trying the makeup tester provided is not necessarily a newly opened product.
This condition shows that the sample product has certainly been used by previous buyers. This is certainly considered less hygienic when you apply it directly to your face or lips.
The reason is, makeup is a place where bacteria can grow. Even though makeup contains preservatives, using makeup products together is not recommended.
Makeup products that are used together can trigger other problems such as being susceptible to infections and contracting diseases from other people. So, so that you avoid infection, there are tricks you can apply from Dr. Incognito. For information, dr. Incognito is a beauty doctor and model.
In an upload on his TikTok video @doctor.incognito_99, he revealed that you are not allowed to try samples of lipstick and mascara. There are safe ways you can do this according to Dr. Incognito, as reported by briliobeauty.net from @doctor.incognito_99 on Monday (10/6).

1. Wipe the tip of your lipstick or mascara with a clean tissue or cotton swab
2. Then wipe the lipstick with your hands
3. Then smear it on the lips and also with mascara.
"Never try makeup samples without a wipe first!" he stressed.
Not only sharing his tricks, Dr. Incognito also provides information about the impact if you try lipstick and mascara samples directly. According to him, the mere act of trying on makeup samples can cause you to become infected with diseases such as herpes.
"It's different from herpes, which is transmitted from the genitals. If you get it from the genitals, you can't blame it on the sample lipstick. This lipstick is more like cold sores," explained Dr. Incognito.
Not only herpes, you can also experience bacterial infections. Meanwhile, when using mascara you can get conjunctivitis or commonly known as pinkeye. This condition is a clear membrane that covers the white part of the eye (sclera) and the inside of the eyelid.
"Don't borrow a friend's lipstick or at least clean the top/applicator first," he added.
This inflammatory disorder of the conjunctiva can cause the whites of the eyes to look reddish or pink. Conjunctivitis eye disease is usually caused by bacterial or viral infections and even allergic reactions.
