§ 6818-a. Cosmetic samples. 1. No person engaged in the business of selling cosmetics shall provide for the use by or application to customers of any cosmetics, except for use or application to the hand or arm as a sample if such immediate container of cosmetics is to be used by or applied to more than one customer.

Nothing contained in this section shall prohibit the use or application of cosmetic samples by persons trained to apply cosmetics to customers in accordance with the provisions of this section.
2. Notwithstanding any other provision of this article, a violation of this section shall result in a civil penalty of one hundred dollars for the first offense and a civil penalty of two hundred fifty dollars for a second or subsequent offense.
