Erno laszlo no longer does samples. Guess I won't be trying them out after all! I plan on doing some emails later today. I need to look through the companies and see which ones I am even interested in trying. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Thats strange that Macadamia said no- this was there email back to me. "Dear Isabel, Thank you for your interest in Macadamia Natural Oil. We don't always offer complimentary samples, we take it on a case by case basis, but we are always looking to make new happy customers. I would be glad to send you some samples of our wonderful products. I see you have provided us with all the needed information, we will send out your samples either today or tomorrow. Enjoy!"

I am obsessed with the BHA products. I have used 2% in liquid, gel, and lotion and as you can see in my pic I have a full size of the BHA 9 and behind that is the 2% liquid. It's a life changing product. I really like their foundation as well. My skin cannot handle fragrances in makeup.

The foils are from Suki. I love their Foaming Face Scrub so I asked to try the rest of their line. The little jar is from Taun. It is a men's grooming company and it came in that cute little box!

I emailed Taun. I haven't heard back yet, but I got an email confirming my subscription to their newsletter. Did you accept this?

I don't think I did. Really not sure, but when I got a response back, it seemed like they send out a standard sample to anyone who wants it. I think they gave me a link to a page on their site to request a sample. If I find it, I will see if it works and post it here.

lol now look at my answer!!! Thank you for you interest in Macadamia products. Unfortunately, we don't currently have the ability to send out samples to customers. We do, however, have a sampler set available through our online webstore. The set includes 6 Macadamia products that you can try before committing to a larger size. You can get more information on the sampler set here: http://www.macadamiahair.com/products/detail/mno_mesh_bag Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with. Thanks!

Oh those were not what I got for free. I got my free samples from her line over 6 years ago. I use her products regularly now and love them. So it makes me excited to see others get samples.
