Check On Coupons

Avoid Swapping

There are sites that are dedicated to cosmetic swaps but it is advisable to resist this temptation. The reason for this is you may not know if the person you are swapping with has used the product or if the person has a skin issue. In addition, most of the makeup products are a breeding ground for bacteria and exchanging these bacteria with a complete stranger is really not such a great idea.
