    Same happened to me :rolleyes:

    ... and me. Emailed them and they said the same thing - that they wouldn't show up if doing a face trial already, but I'm not, so I think they pressed the wrong send button there, or something!

    I didn't think it smelled too bad at first sniff, but it leaves a really odd aftersmell, sort of plasticky.

    Incidentally, anybody else had any invitations today? I had three earlier this morning but when I logged on there's absolutely no sign of them, not even with a "full up" cross next to them. The invitations were slightly different as well. I'm wondering if they've changed things so they won't show up in your trials once they're full up.
    Judge I have been with them nearly 2 yrs and only ever had 2 invites, the scond of which was yesterday.:confused:

    I normally get a trial a month but then again I do log in daily and update my profiles weekly so maybe thats why?

    Yes you are right.... It is very much a similar smell to Aapri...

    I knew I recognised the smell from somewhere - I bought some of the Garnier Hand and Foot Cocoons ages ago when they were on promotion and hardly use them cause I don't like the smell lingering while waiting for it to soak into the skin... I happened to put some on last night and it smells exactly like that!!

    At least with this facial polish, you wash it off so you only really smell it when you are 'polishing!!'

    I got a Facial Cleansing Polish - It smells familiar but not sure if I'd say oranges!!


    Mine is in a white tube though... it has the code LF1066 on the label...

    I've got this one too! Smells very synthetic...
  • They don't like me anymore :(
    I used to get trials all the time (sometimes 2 per week!) and always did the surveys on time, then I got the offer for a last minute holiday while I was doing one. I emailed them to let them know, twice, using their website, but no response. I went away and didn't complete the final survey on time (1 week late in a month long trial) and haven't had another trial since :(

    Used the face polish once and that's it - it's made my face feel a bit hot and slightly irritated.

    I got a trial for self tan shimmer lotion today :)

    I find the number of trials has really gone down lately. Between the family, we used to sometimes have about 6 trials on the go, but now we are lucky to have one or two between us!
