Along with all my monthly sampling, I started collecting Christmas presents for my family member. So far, I have not spent one penny on any of the things I have received. I love giving, but I just don't have the money being a high school student, so I thought this was my perfect opportunity. 

Beauty Products:

Lets start with the things you'll mostly be interested in! I got 4 piece brush set from Sonia Kashuk, it looks so cute! Also Beauty Stokes sent me about 4 brush sets! I also got nail polish from Nailtiques.

Athletic Gear:

Racing water bottle from Nathan Sports

Fishing hooks from bagley, tru turn and daiichi

Water bottle from Cognito

Head band from Cory Vines and also one from Sweaty bands

Arm Band for phone from Sport line

Cat Products: (My sister is a crazy cat lady)

Cat toys from cat dancer (they sent me like ten, I am very impressed)

Cat treats from Zukes (they also sent about 10 packets!)

I also got some little things as stocking stuffers, these are in the picture unwrapped. I had to wrap everything else though so my family didn't take a sneak peak before Christmas!

Dermorganic (hair care and skin care)

Danyel (foundation)

Savannah Bee (chapstick)

Jane Iredale (mascara, lipstick, lash conditioner)

Original Sprout (hair spray)

Acure (shampoo, conditioner, body wash)

Absolutely natural (lotions)

Working Hands (lotion)

Hey everyone. Just a big time lurker here. 

Started composing a google doc with all the companies contacted/ive been wanting to contact. 

Also, just a headsup, if anyone is missing out on the Elizabeth Mott sample in this month's ipsy, or wants more, they currently have a sample waitlist you can sign up for. 1 item per household, but still!

May I ask how you asked for the brush sets from Sonia Kashuk and Beauty Stokes? Thanks!

 
To those of you wondering how I received the free brush sets from Sonia Kashuck and Beauty Strokes I sent an email as follows

"Hello! My name is _____. I have a love for makeup, however, I have not been able to find a brand of makeup brushes that I like. It seems no matter how much money I spend, the brushes always end up being poor quality. I have been hearing wonderful things about your brushes. As you can imagine I have spent a lot of money trying different companies over the years. I don't want to continue to spend money on things that aren't worth it. I was wondering if you might be able to mail me a brush to try out. I would be more than happy to give you feedback on what I think. I realize makeup brushes are expensive, I will surely except any of your brushes to try out wether it the least or most expensive, I'm sure they are just as good of quality. Thanks so much, I realize this is a lot to ask.

Your name
I wrote my address here"
Good luck to you guys, hope you can get some brushes too, I love them!

Thanks for the list. I never botheres to try Suave becuase I didn't think they would send out samples. Now I know so thanks for the heads up!

 
Do you guys have a standard email that you send the companies asking for samples also, how do you know who to send the email to? Would love to get in on this.
