    :confused:
    I returned my complete registration forms and received an email with regards to trials (didn't say what) taking place in Nottingham and that i'd be required to travel (possibly more than once a week for 2-3 hours at a time), I then had the option to accept or decline but no mention of product testing(creams, make-up etc.) - which is what I thought I was signing up for.

    Strange when I live in Leeds and my registration forms obviously stated this, with no payment or travel expenses covered, who do they think would want to do this????

    There is two forms sent in the post, one is a quick 1 for home testing, one was more lengthy and that was for Nottingham trials. If you have sent both back then they think you have applied for Nottingham. I wasn't sure which to send back, so I sent both and wrote, I AM ONLY APPLYING FOR HOME TRIALS, on the top of both forms lol and that worked as I got my log in details via email (i wrote my email address on the form, even though it doesn't ask for it).

    So you could try giving them an email and explaining, or ask for the forms again I suppose but just send off 1. Good luck.

    Thanks so much Emma, seems a silly question now
    :beer:

    Siren when you get the forms there are two, if you don't want to go to Nottingham just fill in the first one. Just write your name, e-mail and address on it and say "Only Home Trials please".
    They ask nothing about your weight or height or anything the questions are all about your skin ,and hair I think, is it dry sensitive, greasy etc
    After you get the e-mail with your log in details you have to check the site everyday for new trials and then choose the ones you want.
    Although I requested lots I have only just received one thing the other day.
    You have to be patient!
    Good luck.

    Good luck Lisa. If you just want to do home testing, and not go to Nottingham you didn't need to fill in the medical questionnaire. You only needed to sign the consent form. You'll be sent an email with your password and user ID, then you have to fill in your profile online before you're offered the trials. It takes a bit of time as you have to state all the different products you use, and give information about your skin, hair and nails.

    It feels quite exciting applying for the trials and hoping you get something. Hope you get something soon. :j
