Editor's Note: This story originally appeared on Living on the Cheap.

Hello, gorgeous! All those products we use to look and feel a bit better can be costly. But if you know where to look, you’ll find a bounty of beautiful freebies. Look even more marvelous, dah-ling, with these products and services on the house.

A lot of beauty and makeup stores are anxious for you to test their products. So much so, they’ll happily give you multiple free samples just for asking.

It’s always worth popping into your favorite beauty store on your next trip to the mall and asking about any freebies they may have.

It’s also worth checking out your favorite store’s social media accounts. Follow them on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter, and wait for them to post any special offers or deals that will then pop up in your feed.

Here’s where to get beauty and health freebies.
