It's just a heat protectant spray, not a dry shampoo.  By "dry," they just mean that it's a dry spray.

Yeah, they were extremely generous! Although while I was waiting for these I received DermOrganics and Erno Laszlo samples and have fallen in love with a few of their products. I may end up putting this on my trade list so someone else can have the opportunity to find new HG products!

Jane Iredale sent me some lip samples. Well some is an understatement. I basically wrote a polite e-mail saying I was interested in the product and heard great things. Their customer service which is great took care of the rest and sent me these!

I received these in the mail today: Samples from Murad (they asked my skin type and condition), Jane Iredale, and NIA24. In addition, I have received "Yes" from these companies:

Jurlique (lotions)

Juara (face stuff)

DermOrganix (face stuff)

EveLom (face stuff)

Elemental Herbology (face stuff)

Living Proof (hair stuff)

Ren (face stuff)

Juice Beauty (face stuff, asked my skin issues)

Nature's Gate (random samples and coupons)

Oribe (shampoo and conditioner samples...they gave me a list to choose from)

Wei East (?)

Caldrea

Mrs. Meyers

L'Occitane (bath stuff)

Archipelago (no idea...they asked what scents I preferred)

Red Flower (bath soak)

I travel a lot of work, so this helps me out tremendously.

Wow I need to email more companies. Still waiting to hear back from Jane Iredale

 

[sparklegirl]

Just got my samples from Archipelago. I feel stupid for not knowing this, but are these all candles? They don't have wicks and not all are in tins so I'm confused. But they smell great!

I think mine were candles without wicks too. I used them in a tart burner. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Thanks! I emailed them and they said they were for smelling only and not actually meant to burn...I don't have a wax burner but I'm sure I can find someone who can make use of them. At least I now know what scents I like!

 

[hiheather]

I put my scents in a small crock pot, like a tart burner but smells up the house quicker and longer!

 

[Scawolita]

I cannot wait until Jane Iredale comes!

I asked for specific things but am hoping to get a few extra goodies to try also. Did those of you who received samples from them request specfic items?

 

[Jamie P]

I haven't heard back from them yet. How long did it take for a response?

 

[kawaiiwoofs]

[Scawolita]

These are all organic--and after feeling the consistency I thought they would make great solid perfumes...Notice when you touch them they are kinda--I don't wanna say slimey but IDK what other word to use....I use them as solid perfumes and balms on my feet and elbows and they work GREAT!!!

 

[Jamie P]

Which email did you send to for Jane??

 

[Emuhlyy]

Anyone who has gotten samples from Macademia, how long did it take for you to receive them?  The woman I spoke to said she would send them out last Monday.. I would of thought they would have gotten here already.  I'm thinking she might have forgot to send them off or something

 

[Jamie P]

I'm thinking they don't like me haha I emailed Friday and no response.
