Free Beauty Samples UK

Freebies checked: 7th August

Beauty brands regularly give away free samples so you can try skincare, makeup, haircare and fragrance before you buy. Funky Freebies look out for the latest free beauty samples available in the UK and share them on this page, so you can claim them in one place.

Every offer below is a genuine freebie — we check the links regularly and remove any that have ended. Check back regularly so you don't miss out on any free samples for products you are interested in trying.

How to get free beauty samples

Getting a free beauty sample usually takes a minute. Most offers work in one of a few ways:

  • Sign up or request a sample — brands send a trial-size product to try, often free of charge.
  • Sample boxes — some services send a selection of beauty samples matched to your preferences.
  • Free-with-purchase or first-order — a few offers include a sample when you try a service.

Most samples listed here are free to claim. Where an offer involves a small postage fee or a subscription you can cancel, we say so on the offer, so there are no surprises.

Free skincare samples

Skincare is one of the most popular categories for free samples — cleansers, moisturisers, serums and masks are all commonly given away so you can try them before committing to a full-size product. If you're after free skincare samples, the offers above include the latest skincare trials we've found, and our dedicated free skincare samples page rounds them up in one place.

Trying a sample first is a sensible way to check how a product suits your skin before you buy, especially for serums and active ingredients.
