    The pink lip gloss has just dropped through my door,im gob smacked but very pleased as although I normally apply for the make up trials I dont get them and I do use boots no7 and 17 including the lipglosses.Im another one whos normally inundated with face creams and body lotions,dont mind though as I enjoy trying them out.x

    face wash shpwing on mine.

    Further to previous posts, I ALWAYS say yes to makeup products on the rare occasion anything that isnt a face cream is on my list. I don't mind I enjoy them and it saves me a LOT of money as I use Boots Botanics and other face creams already. However it would be nice to be sent something that isnt face cream. The only thing I have had that isnt FC was a shampoo that left my hair in terrible condition.I normally like poppyseed use boots makeup as it is reasonably priced, good quality and not tested in animals.

    I have felt like contacting them as I cannot understand the rhyme or reasoning to the allocation. They tell you you cant trial more than one for example face cream at once and then send you 2 when you could be doing a makeup or foot product one at the same time .

    The way they allocate is very odd and like you say you arent supposed to test 2 things on the same area at once but they seem to send them out together,I did start to wonder if it was because im probably in the older group,being an ancient 42,lol,as I have the same with cosmetics research online,have quite a few bits on and off with them but have never had cosmetics.Well after getting the lipgloss at least theres hope now,hope a few more of us face cream and body lotion people get a few different bits now.x

    thanks for that, i had the last 2 come up and the facewash this morning.
  • Just a quick note re contacting Boots re lack of tests and others getting multiple products simultaneously - understand and second the frustration, but be careful as we are probably not meant to be discussing our trials with others, much like with Ayton and other where we tick a form stating that we won't discuss our trials on forums etc. Could end up opening a can of worms...
