    I received a lipstick this morning in a plain white envelope, first time I've ever had anything sent that way.

    I did, and its not actually a boots one. They have gone over the make in felt pen.

    Me too- it has to be returned by 4th May and have been used 5 times. :cool:
    Not likely to happen
    The first time we said hello, was the first time we said goodbye. As the angels took your tiny hand and flew you to the sky-you forever left us breathless. RIP my beautiful granddaughter :(

    I've had quite a few items sent like this.. I think it's because a few people complained about the jiffy bags they sent with the pull tabs on them that ripped the envelope right open (which meant they couldn't be re-used).

    Smaller items like lipsticks, eyeshadows etc seem to be sent in the white envelopes nowadays and the larger items they send out in the 'traditional' jiffy envelopes.

    I've just recently got back into doing the Boots Testing but I think I may be getting a little confused!

    Do you apply for everything you are interested regardless of dates and what the product is and hope you get something, or should you be making sure you dont apply for more than one product line? i.e. should you only apply for one lip gloss, or one day cream etc. I dont know if I am getting excluded from trials as I am applying for everything that takes my fancy!

    I would be grateful for any information anyone can give - thanks :beer:

    I'd just apply for everything! I check at least once a day as they only have a limited number of samples and it could be first come, first served for those who fit the profile :)

    Normally get at least one thing a week or a couple a month minimum x
