The way people sample a variety of beauty products is changing and [Arcade](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scentseal) Beauty came up with a [contactless sample dispenser](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colibri-robot) for Rochas' new fragrance, Girl. The contactless sampling solution takes the form of a board box that has the capacity to hold 100 [printed ScentSeal cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arcade-beauty-paper-packette), which can be used for a safe sampling experience.

Thanks to the design of the system, samplers only need to touch the card that they will be picking up and keeping as their own. The experience was created to replace physical product testers and minimize the need for people to interact with beauty advisors.

The sampling experience is being reshaped in a number of ways and it is changing how consumers discover new products virtually and in-store.
