I had filled out the survey about three months ago, got an e-mail after that and never received any products. Just did the survey again and now it recommended me what products I should buy.Originally Posted by turtlegirl2 /img/forum/go_quote.gif
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!

Interesting. They sent my set entirely free of cost. Very great products & as I said; shipping was fast. In any case it's worth a shot to at least speak to them. The amount of products available for men to sample are few and far between compared to everything else.

I wrote to [email protected] and heard back the same day I sent my original message, asking about shades, and then got the samples soon after.

It seems so random and weird! You'd think companies would have a policy in place, either yes or no and what/how much to send, but it really seems up to the CS person at a lot of these places.

I had an idea-- I was thinking of maybe starting another thread to review the samples we get--I don't really feel like writing up real reviews of all these products but it might be nice to share our opinions since a lot of us are trying the same products, but this thread already has a lot going on without adding a lot of that. What do you all think, would you all be interested in that?

Uh Huh Her
Speedy speedy samples!
Living Proof (the Restore line and a No-Frizz leave-in conditioner), Thymes, and Macadamia Oil. (And on top of *those*, I also received my Square Hue box and a swap package! Best mail day in quite a while!)
My post office didn't deliver my samples. I am guess bc my mail box isn't really big. I went to check on a E.L.F. package they didn't deliver and ended up with 5 sample packages too. And another four delivered by FEDEX.

Wow, good thing you went to check! I guess it was a good sample day then
/emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Who did you have send samples by FedEx? I've only had one sample package come that way, from First Aid Beauty. It was a giant envelope with 4 tiny foils in it haha.
