Face Feeler

In the world of skincare product testing, “sensory panelists” or “face feelers” are hired to gently touch strangers’ faces to evaluate smoothness, moisture, and firmness. You’re literally paid to stroke cheeks for a living. It’s clinical and supervised, but that doesn’t make it less awkward.

Imagine explaining at parties that your job involves poking people’s pores with a straight face. It’s not glamorous and definitely not romantic, but the beauty industry swears by it. One tester described it as “being a dermatologist without the degree—just way more… tactile.”
