How to Get Free Makeup on Your Birthday
August 10, 2020
On top of receiving gifts from family and friends on your birthday, what’s better than having freebies roll in from some of your favorite beauty brands, too? While you’ve probably heard or experienced freebies in one way or another before, (yup — samples from your favorite restaurant counts), you may not have come across a list of brands and stores that will give you free makeup on your birthday, just for signing up for an email.
Just like we’ll encourage you to use student discounts and help you figure out when you should (or shouldn’t) spend big bucks on products, we’re also here to inspire you to take advantage of all the free beauty products the world has to offer. Whether your birthday is next week or six months away, we recommend you treat yourself in advance so you can stock up on some extra beauty essentials.
