    hi

    x__Indigo_x



    You don't get every trial you register for -i've requested about 40 and recieved about 6 products to try since christmas -it seems pot luck which one you get (i never know whats in the parcel box -its a treat when something turns up!)



    They come in a brown envelope with sample and questionnaire with return envelope. If it says use 5 times then return, i will use it 5 times, if it says two weeks, i will use it for two weeks then return (from when i receive it/first use it)



    hope that helps - just enjoy the freebies!
    mine came in a blue bag thing. no envolope or questionaire enclosed. it said ' u will be prompted to complete a questionnaire in two weeks on the form?

    all that was enclosed was a form about the products and number etc

    I just called the evaluation suite and they said that they only ever use jiffy bags or on the odd occasion brown envelopes.

    they also said that they always include the questionnaire and return paid envelops as they havent set up online questionnaires yet but are planning to in the future.

    Are you sure its from the evaluation suite?

    I was thinking the same Sarah!

    I have always received the questionnaire and pre paid envelope with the product!! and always have been in a jiffy bag or brown (or lately on the odd occassion a white) envelope.

    The package that x__Indigo_x has described, very much sounds like a 'clix' research one - although boots are doing a facial wipe trial at the moment - am sure this only appeared on my trials yesterday tho.

    Alba science...i think thats what the company were called are doing a facial wipes trial at the moment ...I didnt get it but there was a bit of talk about it on the clix research/givaudan thread last week or so.
    I think they sent out the product and are offering £5 to those who complete the survey on them....could it be that you receieved the wipes from them?

    found it heres the other persons post on that thread...is this what you may have signed up to?
    this is not Boots....

    I have copied and pasted the op thread...so its an old one and no use to join up to!

    free money £5 - test facewipes at home
    £5 for testing some facewipes at home :T


    It's alba science mentioned further down - good company - and need lots of different people depending on the test - if this one isn't for you - might be worth checking their site for later once that might be.

    They say
    "We are currently conducting a survey on behalf of a leading cosmetics company and are seeking a group of pannelists who normally use make-up to use some new make-up remover wipes at home and to complete a short survey at the end of the usage period.
    We are looking for females aged between 18 and 30 who regularly apply / remove make-up to take part in this survey

    The survey should take no longer than 10 minutes to complete.

    Upon receipt of your completed survey, we will send you payment by cheque in the post".

    Yes of course they are.... they will charge you for doing so!!!!!!

    You only need a doctor to fill in the medical side of the forms if you are able to go the Boots Evaluation Suite in Nottingham!
