I received it early last week and now have a chance to write about it.

IMO I think it's worth the price, you get a fair amount of products to sample. And the samples are pretty generous. I was excited about the GoSmile sample, cause I have wanted to try the ampules, but find the full price a little hefty. I aleady think I'm going to give the eye cream a good review.

The only complaint I had was with the makeup samples, which weren't clearly labeled, so I'm not sure if they are powders for the face or eyes, and I'm not sure of the shade names.

For me this is worth it, for the entertainment value alone.

I also received mine. I was completely happy with the size of the samples most being about full size or deluxe sample/GWP. I have to agree with mskitchmas on the loose powder samples by Jane Iredale, they were not labeled clearly but I did look them up online & found out they are face powder/mineral samples. All in all well worht the money plus they sent you a GC for $25 to spalook.com which sells cosmetics/skincare.

Are you a sucker for samples?
I was on the telephone with a customer at work and she introduced me to this website www.newbeauty.com. When you sign up for the Test Tube which is $25 (roughly $30 with shipping) you get a test tube filled with sample once a quarter. The samples can include makeup, skin care solutions, and corrective regimes. The only downside is that you never know what is included with that quarter's sample package. She said that a few of the things are actually full size and the samples are very generous. For this quarter, she said that the Roc and Purpose are full size. I just wanted to share with you guys.

any1 heard of the TestTube sampling program?
So I was browsing the net and discovered this site. From what I got, the way it works is you pay $29.95 per test tube, which is filled with all sorts of sample/products. You give feedback on the contents of your first tube, and they base your comments on what will be in your next tube. This is pretty innovative and a great way to try things! The only thing is, if I'd get items in my testtube that I wouldnt find much use for or wouldnt like too much, I wouldnt be too happy paying that $30...but its definitely worth it if you get stuff that are good for you! Check it out:

Re: any1 heard of the TestTube sampling program?
Its pretty cool, in my first test tube, one of my products was Dr. Brandts Laser in a Bottle (full size) that retails for over $100. My only complaint is that most of the items in there are for targeting aging, wrinkled skin, which is not my concern yet. My test tubes IIRC, were $25 a pop, so I guess they raised their prices.
The products in there that I wasn't going to use, I sold on ebay.
