Sampling Product and Review


Hi ladies! Here is a list of companies that we have personally written emails to requesting samples. We've actually had a lot of luck with it so far! 
After moving to the California desert from the very humid Houston my skin literally didn't know what to do. As time has gone by my hair and skin keeps getting more and more dry and I keep having to come up with new ways to battle it and that cam be a costly adventure to say the least. So the best advice given to me was to personally contact companies I was interested in and ask to see if samples could be sent, I just google said company and look for the contact link on their page. Sometimes an auto form to contact them pops up for you to fill out. If one doesn't then just look for the customer service/info email address. Then simply email them expressing interest. I keep it short n sweet ( sometimes lol ). Helps to included what items or product your interested in if applicable. And then wait for a reply. Now some companies will just mail out samples without any reply. I'm sure they receive a lot of of requests so try to make it warm and personal, not robotic or "spammy". You can also let them know if you will be more than happy to do a review of the products sent. If you are really interested in a particular product really let them know so you get what you need and so you don't waste your time or there's or the product. :)

Oh! And don't forget to subscribe to their newsletter too! That a nice and smart thing to do if your wanting to stay up to date on your favorite line and so you can go back and give a review. 

We will keep this blog updated regularly with my experience with each company and have both written and video reviews so don't forget to follow me & this blog!  
It's Sat, Sept 26 2015 and I just started emailing 2 days ago and so these are the companies that have said yes and that have been so nice. I'll be making another blog on the " not so nice" responses I received and who to stay away from and not contact.

Here's my YouTube channel - product reviews! ( don't forget, I'm brand new and these are my first videos. Sorry if its not the best quality, it will get better soon. )
Product Review!

And check out my other blogs on other products companies you can email and request samples, swag or coupons A to Z list of companies you can email  and our blog on the big sample boxes - FREE Sample Boxes.

Review soon!  Are now saying as of 10/7/15: Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us! We have had a busy few months at Mad Hippie with features in Allure, InStyle and Cosmopolitan as well as industry publications like Dermatology Times. Because we have a high demand for samples and our products are costly and utilize high end ingredients, we reserve them for the brick and mortar stores that carry our line. We encourage you to reach out to them if there is a store near you (you can see a list of stores that carry Mad Hippie on the "stores" page of our website).
