    Hi,Alan i joined about a month ago and have been very successful, had loads of products from, tinfoil to massage oil.tick all boxes in your profile, you might have a better chance. hope this helps.

    Thanks i will have to have a look but i think i have ticked all boxes. i just keep getting no trials currently running.
  • Maybe they don't think males use them or do male cosmetics but i'd have thought they would we are worse than you women sometimes no offence. I use face creams, special washes, eye brow tints and lashes, body lotions, fake tan, allsorts and not just because of my sexuality i know a lot of straight lads around Birkenhead which is quite ruff wear fake tan and face creams etc. no offence ment to anyone buy this post. Just icase someone from birkenhead takes it the wrong way xx

    They don't do loads for men, but they do come up now and again. Hubby has tested among other things toothpaste, chewing gum, eye cream, face cream, pyjamas, hair gels and bath & shower gels.
  • If you have ticked every single box that may be why you are not getting trials, as they will think that you are cheating... Just tick what you use ;) and leave some empty.

    Also, are there any women in your family you can add ;) I get more trials than my husband does! :)
  • I have been a member of cosmetic research for well over a year, and have been invited to several trials, but have missed all but two. I had a tea tree face cream to try, which was good, and also a sports ice bandage thing which was cool (no pun intended!).

    The golden rule is to update your profile regularly and to respond to emails that they send you asking about upcoming trials. The more family members you add to your profile the better.

    Good Luck!
  • I did one for a face serum after I had been signed up for a year, but I forgot to do the survey on time and I think I have been cancelled now.
