    I was accepted onto the Boots panel a couple of months ago now. A few weeks ago i had an email asking if i would like to take part in a trial. The questions asked me to choose which makeup products i would like to test out from some options. I completed this but have not heard back since. I thought that as they were asking me which ones i would like to test, that i would be taking part in the trial.
    Is this not the case? As i haven't received anything or heard back.
    Does this generally mean i was not accepted?

    Thanks.

    From my experience that is generally not the case. I've filled out quite a few of these surveys but have only received one or two things to test out. It all depends if you are selected and filling out the survey is the first stage.

    The surveys are just asking what you'd be interested in testing, then if you're selected they get in touch / send you the product. I get picked about 50% of the time I'd guess, probably a bit less. You don't hear back if you're not picked.

    Received a reply saying that they were sorry as it seems I was "inadvertently missed off the list when they sent the gift cards out" and I should expect one within the next week. Will keep a look out!

    Well they kept their word, gift card arrived this morning with a personalised letter of apology! :)

    Hi, just wondered if anyone had the email for finding out which products we have tested? I can't find it anywhere.

    It needs to be 6 months since you tested it and you just need to quote the product number to them.

    Thank you, thought that was the email I'd used in the past but it comes back as undeliverable. I'll try calling instead.

    Just had this so keep an eye out for the email about it

    Dear Joanne,

    We are always keen to review how we assess our products and are looking to build a small panel of volunteers who would be willing to submit their reviews via a short video.

    The videos would be for internal use only, but will let us SEE how you FEEL/THINK about the products you to test for us.

    If you are passionate about trying new cosmetics and would like to be considered to take part please complete the attached screening questionnaire. If selected we will be in touch shortly with more details.

    Thanks for your interest

    I would like to be a glow-worm.
    A glow-worm's never glum.
    Its hard to be downhearted when the sun shines out your bum.

    I always get this and the review panel muddled up, but I received my 1st product from the testing panel today.. a base coat for the nails :)
    Many thanks to all who contribute on MSE :)

    Hi I only applied online about 2 months ago and have just received my first email today asking if I wish to test facial and nail products. Filled in all the questions so I will just wait and see what happens.
    Many thanks
