Jane Iredale might. I had requested foundation samples and they sent that and BB cream samples too.
When was this? I got samples from them recently and they said they could only send pressed foundation. Thanks for the tip, though. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Try peter thomas Roth for cc cream. I had a sample and went right out and bought it, I love it.

Oh the sample was from Sephora.
Hmm okay, well I'll try anyway! Thanks.

 
I requested samples from Jane Iredale last night and received a response today.  I said that I was currently using a different mineral make up and was interested in switching brands.  They are sending 3 samples of the mineral powder (once closest to the bare minerals medium beige I use, and one lighter and one darker). I am excited to try it, I heard great things.  I also got positive responses from living proof and dermorganics.  I can't wait :eek: /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />)

Hubby was mad nothing was for him lol.
All those samples came on the same day?  You must have been in sample heaven!  Your poor hubby - ha ha!

I love the DermOrganic products.  I had a mad rash recently and the DermOrganic cleanser and moisturizer saved my face!

  Anyone have tips on companies that give out BB or CC cream samples? Other than Studio Gear. Thanks!
SuperGoop?  I didn't try them but I know a lot of the subscription boxes have had it lately, so they might if you ask.

 
I saw the Nest perfumes on the Sephora website, and the packaging is gorgeous! So  I went to their website and emailed them because my Sephora doesn't carry the perfumes and a super nice lady said she'd mail me samples of each scent. I just got them, and I love ALL of them! Will definitely purchase!

I went to a NYC Nest sample sale recently. You should keep an eye out for the next sample sale (they had announced it on their Facebook page). They had practically their entire line at the sample sale (candles, diffusers, body wash, hand soap, body lotions and perfumes) and everything was about 50% off!

Omg! Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely look out for a sale now before I pay full price for their scents!

 
A while back a lot of people were saying they received samples from RoseMira organics. It seems like the only way to receive samples is with a charge -- $10 for a sample, and $50 with a consultation. How did everyone else go about getting theirs?

 
She had a free consultation week or something. She's super awesome and I love her products. Just too pricey for me right now

Has anyone gotten samples from Clinique by emailing?  I don't want to go to the mall and ask for samples (it's really kind of a nightmare trying to go to any mall in LA), but I really want to try their redness solutions pressed powder. I know they have samples of it.. I guess I'll shoot them an email and ask, just curious if you guys have had any responses yet?

 
Does anyone know of companies that are willing to send samples to Canada?

I've tried e-mailing a few companies and most won't ship samples outside of the US.

I don't have any high end beauty stores around here, so most of my products I buy online, but I don't like spending the money on the product +shipping until I have an idea of if it will work for me.

 
Over on the Sephora web site, under advice, there is a post about "who have you received samples from" they have a list of companies who send to Canada.
