So it's official. NUDE skin care had the NICEST customer service ever. I might have just got lucky and got a good rep but holy crap guys. She was so thorough in information. When I first asked if there were any samples available to try she asked some questions about my skin type and my concerns then replied back after I told her and said that even though they didnt have samples of the product that I really NEEDED they would send me a few packs of the next best few things. They're sending them out ASAP and I'm super excited. If anyone is wondering, the reps name is Alyssa Holden and her direct email is [email protected]

You have more restraint than I do! I stopped taking pictures because my samples are coming in small batches now and I end up using them before I can wait to take a pic of them all together! I have 3 girls too, so it makes it harder to keep them all in tact. Don't get me wrong, I have a ton still, but I grab what I want when I feel like it :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I think I'm just going to start listing what I get instead. Yesterday I got some from Kristen Florian and Pharmagel. (I think I spelled those right) And today I got some from Colorscience and Dr Bronner (from ups) Still waiting on usps to come. I'll post if I get anything from them.

She is super nice! She emailed me back and told me they didn't have samples of the cleans/tone/moisturize regimen she recommended for my skin type, but she'd send samples of two other products that she recommended, a treatment oil and a cleansing oil. I'm looking forward to trying them out! I also continually wish there was a Sephora here, she told me the other products could be sampled there....oh well.

Wow! It'll be a lot of fun in a week or so when the samples show up :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Also I've kept an alphabetical list of who I contacted and answers.

Very organized! I wish I'd done that in the beginning, but it seems a little late to start now, with my 2 shoeboxes stuffed full of samples :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'll admit, I've gotten a little obsessive over this whole sample thing! But it's lots of fun, and I'm discovering all kinds of new products I wouldn't have known about otherwise.

 
If I'm not sure, I check my browser history to see if I've visited their website before :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Otherwise I'm sure I'd have done the same!

 
Just received this little goodie packet in the mail! Today is hair washing day (every other day or so) so I might be trying a few of them today!
400


 
For those of you who received samples from Dr. Brandt... did it take a while to get them? They responded almost immediately when I emailed them on 7/25 & said they'd send some, but I haven't gotten them yet. Will probably wait a week or so before I email them to follow up, but just curious how long it took everyone else to get theirs!
