Question

Hello, I wanted to ask if I can go to a makeup store and try a certain makeup to know which one suits me so I can order it from another virtual place much cheaper?

Answer

Hello 

This is forbidden for two reasons. 

A. Entering the store without the intention to buy there is forbidden due to deception and theft of mind, unless you explicitly tell the seller 'I do not intend to buy'. 

B. Using the store's products to buy elsewhere is forbidden due to theft, as it is clear that the store owner does not agree to the products being used unless they are bought from him.
