    Thanks have tried to sign up but when I come to put my date of birth in it will only add 2009 not 1973 so wont register me!!

    I had same problem until I realised that I was forgetting to put the day as well as the year. No problem after that.

    People who have received theirs, please post and let others know the sizes. :)

    I got:
    Virgin Vie Cream - 5ml sachet (2-3 applications)
    Mary Kay Lipstick - 2 samples on card with little brush (2 applications)
    L’Occitane sun protection - 1ml sachet (1 tiny application)


    Conclusion: L’Occitane protection not really worth it as you can't really test sun protection creme with a 1ml sample!

    Virgin Vie sample was generous and lipstick also good.

  • i got the christina aguilera perfume sample - 1.2ml - small but not too bad for poppin in your handbag or taking away on a mini break

    L'Occitane precious protection 1ml sachet - quite small.

    But the estee lauder is 7 x 1.5ml sachets (a weeks trial) plus i got a voucher to take to an estee lauder counter and get 10 day trial of imatch foundation - so not too bad


    went into the estee lauder counter yesterday to get my imatch foundation, the lady on the counter was dead nice (im usually a bit worried about the make up ladies - they sometimes look down their nose at you). we discussed what type of foundation i like, she tried a few on me, and gave me 2 sample pots so take away. cant quite say what size they are - maybe 5ml each. will last me for a while cos i dont wear my foundation too thickly.
    Have been using the little estee lauder pore minimiser sachets and each one is lasting me 3 uses.
    hope this helps anyone

    I've signed up for this, I'm looking forward to my samples arriving. I agree I'm spending more lol, but what the heck, it is nice to get something a little different these days don't you think?
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    My samples arrived today, 2 x Hugo boss perfume wipe-on foils similar to the ones you get in the mags, 1 x 3ml John Frieda Weather Works Frizz-Ease and 2 x Mary Kay .01fl oz eye firming cream. Eye cream will prob last a couple of days same with the Frizz Ease but the perfume samples aren't great, but what do you want for a £1 text ?
