Wow!! Bad form Caldrea!! I can't believe it! I emailed them on the 15th about samples and they said they would be sending them out. i haven't gotten anything from they until today. 

They sent me an order form and a catalog, lol.

Really?? They sent me all the hand soaps very quickly. It must have been the person you dealy with

Jillian Sherritt responded to my email Aug 15th and said they'd 'be more than happy' to send me samples'. If they ran out or something it would have been nice if they would have included a note or dropped me a follow up email letting me know that. Seemed pretty snarky that instead they sent an order form and a catalog. 

Edited: You know it's not that they didn't send me samples, or that some people got samples and I didn't. it's that they said they would and they didn't, ya know?

i had emailed juicebeauty about getting some samples and they replied to me asking what my skin concerns were. I though maybe she would send some but i havent heard from her in over a week, they just keep sending emails about other stuff /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> im not disappointed that i didnt get a sample im more upset that she didnt even reply to say no

I got a reply from Caldrea a couple days ago asking for my mailing address. I will be ticked off if I just get a catalogue and an order form. Did you specifically say you wanted samples and ask where could you get samples?

I received a UPS mailer w/ sample packets from Ole.  Nice variety of things, I look fwd to using.  I got e-mails from a couple other co.s who want additional skin info. beyond my skin type (combo), who I still need to reply to.  Can't remember their names. 

I also got my Sage boxes- both were identical and contained the blk rose facial cleanser.  I'm very excited to use these products!

Just wanted to follow up! I sent an email to Caldrea and she responded saying there must have been a mix up and she would sent out some samples today! Always worth following up! I'm betting that because some of these companies have been bombarded with requests that if you don't hear anything at all back if you follow up a few weeks later they might send you stuff. At least it shows that you are geniunly interested and not just scamming for freebies.

I received my sample from Per-fekt today. It's the same one as everyone else. They never sent an email in response to my initial inquiry about samples, they just sent samples. So if you have sent them an email and haven't heard back from them they may just send out a sample. It seems to be how it has been for other people that have gotten a sample from them. They were really quick at sending it also. This sample and its packaging is so cute. Great for giving as a little gift. In fact I have a coworker who's birthday is next Sunday (mine too) that I am going to give this too along with a bunch of other samples and makeup from my stash. The girls at work think I'm sample & makeup crazy but absolutely love getting a little gift of samples and such from me. Wei contacted me about my sample request and they are sending me some samples. Also they are going to send some samples and product directly to the women's shelter that i donate stuff to. I'm sure that this way they can write it off for tax reasons. I'm sohappy that they are sending the shelter stuff. The cs rep that I have beenin contact with has been so nice and is very excited to help out by sending stuff to the women's shelter. I heard from Malin + Goetz yesterday. When I sent my email I told them that I had read reviews about their products and that I wanted to try some out. The cs rep thanked me for my inquiry and asked which products I was interested in. They also wanted to know what reviews I had read so that they could send a thank you to the people who did reviews. Most of the reviews that I had read or watched on youtube were fairly old, so if you have a current review on any of their products let me know and I'll go check it out and then send a link to the cs rep that contacted me. Happy sample day to everyone! May your mailboxes be filled with samples! ;-)

I sent Per-fekt an email about samples and was told that I could get 3 free when I placed an order. That kinda killed the point of asking for samples if I have to make a purchase first.

I received samples from N4 that came very fast and were very generous (bottles and packets). They came in a box with a catalog.

They are my HG products now and I own 3 of their products in full size and my collection is growing.

I also received samples from Oribe, very fast and were very nice!

I just contacting both of these companies through their website.

I had asked about sampling their scents, they told me they would be happy to send me the samples that were in  Birchboxes this month. I got the catalog and order form.

WEI samples

wow! I emailed a few weeks ago they replied they were out of samples but would send this week when samples came in. I haven't heard back from them yet though.

I am really disappointed in the Caldrea dishwashing soap. It does not clean anything greasy at all and I am using about double the amount soap I regularly use. They do smell good though 

 

[arendish]

VMV Hypoallergenics is sending me a sample of the Skintangible "Faint"ation Skin-Refining "BBBB" Cream. They usually have samples for sale, but the CS rep said they hadn't packaged any for sale yet so she'd send me a free sample.
