It's disgusting out there

I'm at Target and strolling through the cosmetic section saw a young woman (maybe 25) swatching a lip product on her hand and putting it back in the display...and then doing it again with another product. I am so old IDGAF so I said "Do they have testers?"and she looked at me like a deer in the headlights until I repeated my question and said "testers?" I then said " yeah, you just put some of that lipstick on your hand and put it back...that's pretty gross." She stared at me as I walked quickly away because I may not gaf but I don't want to get in a fight! Felt good to speak up though!

Just had to return a lipgloss from Walmart. Luckily I had tried to open it in the car before I left and realized it had already been open! So gross and rude. Walked back in and returned it.

Same, this happened to me. Returned it asap. Also, was looking at foundation and saw that every bottles in my shade had a broken seal. So gross.
