What companies have you gotten samples from?

Quote: how do you cancel? is it calling them or jsut on the website. sometimes calling can be difficult

I sent them an email today and if I don't get an email back in the next couple of days, I am going to call.

When I called to ask about if I would be charged and all the details, I talked to Tanya?  Her direct number is  646-524-7372.

So I haven't cancelled yet,  but I will be calling if I do not receive an email today or tomorrow.

So Acrona replied offering me trial sizes of their 5 starters of the basic skincare line for 87 dollars! I can't justify that just to try.

I sent Atelier an email on the 15th and received a package from them today with 8 little envelopes, postcards, and vials, along with a little spray bottle of the Vanille Insensee. I never received a response, so this was a very nice surprise.  I am looking for a new signature scent, since I have been using the same one (Flowerbomb) for quite awhile (I still love it, just want something new), so this will definitely help me try their brand and of course gives them bonus points for being so generous! 

  (I didn't care for the Kate Spade Twirl or Bvlgari from this month's BB, and the Diptyque Philosykos from Sample Society was absolutely fascinating, but my husband didn't like it.  Oh well.  Lol.)

Danielle Crane at Arcona sent me an email today that asked for my shipping address so she could send samples. I'm not even sure what I emailed them about...

So we will see when they arrive.

Kyoku for men has a free month of their subscription program available and my boyfriend received his today!

You get 7 FULL SIZED products and they ship very fast (maybe 3 days). 

There is a link on their page that says "free stuff" and you go through and put your email in and make your password. Then it asks for your info, yes you do put your card info in, but that is only to keep it on file for the next box. If you want to continue with monthly boxes you can, but you don't have to. I called their customer service and asked a bunch of questions just to make sure it was completely free and legit (which it is!)

I am going to cancel the monthly subscription because this is so much product ($60 worth) and my boyfriend will not go through it in a month.

Thanks for sharing. I got this today for my boyfriend. Figured he might like to try something new.

Oh, wow!  I didn't get the Vanille Insensee!  You'll have to let me know how it is!

Got a sample from sweet minerals and it was a few little bags of their powder. Anyone else get some?

I got some in the mail today but I am totally confused because I've never heard of them OR requested anything from them - I don't even use foundation of any kind!

I didn't email them, but I did fill out a request form online... don't remember how exactly I heard about it, but I think I saw something about it on Facebook.

Someone posted on here that Sweet Minerals was giving away samples on their Facebook...I dont remember when, but I do remember it!

The form for the Sweet Minerals samples was posted in this thread! Mandy Kane posted it (page 14).

none needed, lol. 4 of the teeny tiny ziplock baggies with barely enough product to coat the inside of the bag. basically just to test what color you are. and then plenty of spammy inserts trying to get you to host 'sweet minerals' parties and be a rep. :/ sorry guys my bad. a beauty blogger posted a link to an article saying this company was giving out like a million samples of their products, lol.

I'm still confused haha, I definitely didn't follow the link posted on page 14, I only reactivated my facebook 2 or 3 days ago, and I haven't filled out any forms.. Still have no idea how they got my name and address. The only company I've ever requested samples from was Miss Jessie's.

I think it was some form that someone posted and we filled it out to receive samples from them, I also received some yesterday
