"Is it okay to return a wrong makeup shade if I've used it?"

You're in luck. Many national chain stores are very sympathetic to wrong-shade woes. Here's the scoop:

* Rite Aid offers a money-back guarantee as long as you have the original cash-register receipt.

* Target allows you to return an opened cosmetic with the receipt up to 90 days after you've purchased it. You can either swap it for a different shade or get your money back.

* Eckerd Drugs and CVS will exchange a cosmetic you want to ditch without a receipt. There's also no time limit on making returns.

* As for department stores, check with the counter where you're shopping to find out their policy. Most accept returns with a receipt.
