I just received my hand cream and wipes from Alba - the hand cream is gorgeous!

I much prefer Alba to Clix, they're far more generous with the products and its nice to get a reminder email before the questionnaire is due, don't know why Clix can't do this. Alba also don't have all those annoying profile questions to keep up to date.

I love the hand cream too, smells fantastic. 3 packs of wipes is a bonus. I agree with you about Clix, sometimes you get less than a quarter of a bottle of some products.

How do you sign up to Alba? I'm a member of Clix, have had one trial so far which was quite generous (two bottles of shower gel for a weeks usage, I used about 1/4 of one bottle over the week!). I agree about the profile questions though, it always says mine isn't completed but only because some questions have no answers that actually apply =/

(edit - found the link to Alba now, I was just searching for 'Alba' and couldn't see anything but found it's 'Alba Science')

Do Alba give you the details of the product after the trial if you ask? I'm in love with the hand cream already and would love to know who makes it!

I'm going to ask them.

The smell reminds me of Cosmetics to Go Phytofoam back in the day. Happy days.:)

It took me 9 months for my reply to a hair conditoner I used! I found out it was a Liz Earle one and it costs £14 will not be buying that! lol. Which hand cream trial you doing? The last one I did turned out to be a M&S one.

Let us know if they send you message, is it possible to know what brand is it...

I've just signed up to Alba, I haven't had much luck with Clix. What are Alba like in terms of contact? Are they regularly in touch?

Ive had 3 things from Alba and been signed up a few months....they are certainly not as frequent as somewhere like boots in ters of what they offer but quality of product is good
