These Videos of Influencers Testing Weird Beauty Products Will Make You LOL
For all of us fawning over the latest releases from our cult-favorite beauty brands, there's an entire world of products we've been missing out on. But thanks to some brave YouTube beauty gurus (who often volunteer to test out the most unusual products on camera), these less buzzed-about items come to life on our screens.
Watching their videos allow us to live vicariously through their first-impression experiences.

We've rounded up seven of the most bizarre — yet intriguing — products recently tested by some of your favorite influencers.
Read on to catch a glimpse of the products, watch them in action, and see if you're game to try them out, too.
