When do you use your fingertips for application?

When do you use your fingertips for application?

I don’t mind fingertips on my face, cheeks, and so forth, but I’m not keen on using them for anything on the eyelids as I find my fingertips to just be too large/lacking precision. I like applying tinted moisturizer or liquid highlighter (when used all over) with my hands/fingertips.

How do you handle pushy salespeople at counters or beauty stores?

How do you handle pushy salespeople at counters or beauty stores?

I usually try to give them a firm, “I’m just looking, and if I need anything, I’ll be sure to let you know!” but try to be polite/nice about it – just try to say it confidently, though. If they get pushy to the point where I’m uncomfortable, I’ll leave.
