What companies have you gotten samples from?

[korsis]

Today's haul: -A sample of the "Full Infusion Serum" from sumbody--she didn't charge me for shipping but it came with $1.61 postage due because it was in a regular paper envelope with one stamp.  -MyChelle -OC8

I had missing postage with natures gate. But it was only 75 cents. John masters came in a completely ripped and from USPS resealed envelope. I hope nothing fell out!

Okay, so I'm totally dominating this thread today, but I just had to share the awesome samples UPS just delivered from Colorescience. 

Wow! Looks nice!!!

I just emailed Colorescience. I love products with no fragrance. I will skip CO8 due to my sensitivities to benzoyl peroxide. I will stick to salicylic acid. I'm still searching for more companies with makeup and skin care for red, sensitive skin.

I love this thread! Such a great idea. I just sent out a bunch of emails over the past day or two. So far, Skyn Iceland, BioElements & Somme Institute have responded & are sending out samples /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I just wanted to thank everyone in this thread!!!  You all have opened my eyes to a whole new world.  I just feel bad for my mail carrier come next week or the week after.  I started an excel grid to keep track of who I requested from and what they said....is that too bad?

Ha! That's great!! I wish I would have done something like that so I didn't end up re-emailing some companies /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Oops!

I have a little list as well. Haha.

 

[meaganola]

I am The Girl of 100 Lists, so I'm right there as well, I've got a Filofax (my third or fourth. I've worn some out, and this new one is because I wanted a smaller one this time around so it doesn't take up as much room in my bag) coming today, so I will be spending my evening transferring all of my PocketMod lists (shopping lists, movies to see, incoming packages, potential daytrip destinations, you name it) to my Filofax! Whoo! #yesihaveocd #noiamnotgettingtreatment

Today I received from Mrs Meyers and 100% Pure. I spoke to 100% Pure during a twitter chat and was impressed at the ingredient list in their makeup with only fruit pigments. I emailed them my interest and they did not have makeup samples, but only lotion packs. I did not respond back, but they sent me the lotion packs (which I will use) and included a full size eye cream. Really impressed. I love eye creams so I am very interested to try this one. Total samples since this round started about 10 days ago...

I'm still waiting on mine from 100% Pure. Hope I get it soon, I love the body lotion. It's been over two weeks /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Thanks for the list

I checked twitter and I spoke to them on 7/18 so maybe soon!

So I'm excited to see what I get, and I guess it is worthwhile to write again when companies tell you to go get samples in person somewhere inconvenient /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Good for you! I'm glad that they are starting to say yes, they have some good products!!

The postage due happens a lot to me but I don't mind that. Still great to get the samples.

Nice! 100% Pure answered me saying they didn't have samples of their cosmetics line, even though I didn't specify what products I was interested in, so I answered and said I was actually interested in their skincare, and did they have samples of those products? So hopefully they say yes!

I should have kept a list, too! Good idea. A bit late to start now, though...

Hey ladies...have any of you filled out the questionnaire on the Mario Bedescu website? If not, I'd highly recommend it!

Here's the scoop...go to their website and fill out this questionnaire: http://www.mariobadescu.com/questionnaire.aspx. Wait a couple of days for them to email you with their personal recommendations for you. After you fill out that questionnaire, you'll be directed to a shopping cart of recommended products...just ignore this and wait a few more days for another email. Please be patient...because it's worth the wait! Once you get this second email, scroll to the bottom of the email that says something along the lines of "please click here if you are interested in receiving product samples." 

I highly recommend on signing up for these samples! They sent me at least 8 samples of their products that were recommended for my personal skin type and concerns. This line is amazing and the samples are very generous...no little foil packets here!

I'll post a picture of my samples here when I get home...so you all can see how wonderful they are!

Yes I did this about 3 months ago. I'm STILL using the eye cream and drying cream. A little goes a very long way. A very good sample pack.

I got samples from them to a while back. Then they sent out an email asking if I would like to try some samples of two new products. So I got those too!
