I have been really lucky - I have been applying for almost everything available recently and got quite a few to test now :j

Only thing is - I can't test them all at the same time! and I need more body parts!!

I am currently testing the serum and day cream (my first trial since I joined up months ago!!) which came together as one trial and was sent the 2 face powders a couple of days later which I emailed them about because I had already started the 4 week serum and day cream trial. After almost a week waiting for a reply they told me that 'yes' I should wait until I finished my first trial before trying the face powders. Last week however I had a voicemail left for me from them asking me to return the questionairre for the face powder by early this week

As my first trial doesn't finish until the 28th (which I told them in my e-mail) I can't start the powder until then. I have e-mailed them again letting them know but as yet haven't received a reply

I have also been testing (and just finished) the body scrub and have filled in my first questionairre for this and the body cream arrived last week too about 2 days after the body scrub which I have to test after showering for 2 weeks so I was now going to start testing that. However today the Postie has just brought me the Body wash which I have to test for 5 times and the eye cream which I need to test for 4 weeks and I'm getting confused by what to start testing first!!!

Can anybody who hasn't got totally confused by this post help me at all?:o
Should I start the body wash for 5 uses first instead of the body cream which is the longer trial but arrived first? Also should I start testing the eye cream once I have finished testing first the serum (which I finish on the 28th) and also the two face powders which I have to test for 5 uses and was going to test after the serum?

Please help ....
Many, many thanks in advance.....

Wow this is a great idea! It means they test on people instead of animals, right? Or as well as? I'm def going to apply!

ethical instead of . Boots has always been a company who unlike L'oreal and others do not test on animals. As animals are not people and do not have the same genetic makeup, I never see the point of testing on them anyway. Remember Thalidomide? I think if I recall correctly this was tested on animals..

jem I dont see any problem with testing body scrub and shower gel or body creme at the same time unless one is prone to reactions. After all in life one often uses all three of these products in ones daily routine..
