    how do you know its a beach babe wave spray as all Boots trials are supposed to come in plain packaging?

    That's the title on the bottle.

    doesnt necessarily mean anything, I had one once that had black tape all over the bottle and when I pulled it off it was a well known brand but when I called Boots 6 months later to ask if it was indeed that product they said no we only get you to test Boots products but we do use other companies bottles sometimes :cool:

    Dont shoot the messanger everybody, its just what the evaluation suite told me :o

    I remember a discussion about that ages and ages ago (probably on the original Boots thread). People were getting excited about receiving shower gels etc in Ted Baker bottles. Boots had said then that they recycle all different sorts of packaging and fill them with their own products.

    I really wanted the straightening balm but got shampoo or conditioner (can't remember which) for coloured hair which is no good for me. I definitely didn't ask for them

    I've not received any products to try since joining in the summer, despite requesting most of the ones available. :(
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    I would email them and ask them if your profile is ok. When I first started I never got a thing for months. Sent them and email and now get too much :D
    I would like to be a glow-worm.
    A glow-worm's never glum.
