Have you ever bought a product with your hard-earned money and regretted it afterwards because the product didn't live to your expectations? Well, most of us may have been to that situation. What if there is a way to try a product first before you actually purchase it, will you bite?
I have been reading a lot of blog posts about this site called Sample Room wherein you can have product samples. All you need to pay is for the shipment. Their mission is to educate the consumers first about the products before they buy them. There is a portion on their site, which by the way is so nice, where you can read the reviews of those who got to try the products themselves!
About two (or three?) weeks ago, I signed up and I had been checking the site from time to time to see if there are any available products that I could try. The samples disappear so fast I tell you! haha. Fortunately, I was able to chance upon and check out two products and they arrived in my doorstep after two working days!
Delivered by Mr. LBC. :) |
I got Moringa-O2 Malunggay Herbal Moisturizing Lotion and Venus and Mars Smooch Lip Detox Lip Butter Balm with SPF 15. I already started using these samples. Reviews to follow soon! :) For now, let me tell you a little how Sample Room works:
- You register. (for free) You'll get a starting 100 pts that you can use to "buy" the samples.
- You "shop" for available products.
- You pay for shipping fee. I use paypal as it is more convenient to me. There are other available payment options though; check out their site and see for yourself! :P
- Once you receive the samples, try them out! Then, write a review on SR's site about your experience. Reviewing the products gives you points that you can spend for your next samples. Be sure to follow their conditions in posting reviews.
- You may also earn points by inviting your friends to join the SR community!
There is a wide variety of samples that becomes available almost weekly. Each sample has a corresponding number of points needed for you to get it. You'll earn the points back when your review for that particular product has been approved. The more points you have, the more products you can sample!
So, what do you think? Will you join too? Check out their site for more information! Happy sampling, loves. :)

The last time I got a free sample from sample room was probably the week after they launched their site, di na ko umulit hehehe.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever bought a product with your hard-earned money and regretted it afterwards because the product didn't live to your expectations? - Yes!! Hai I agree with you. Testing beauty products first is important and this opportunity given by The Sample Room is a great help.
ReplyDeleteI think this is a better approach with product having samples first before bulk or larger purchases.
ReplyDeleteOh I visited the web page of Sample Room now and I think I already like many products. :) I will choose a few and have them shipped later.
ReplyDeleteWow! This is something that I can actually considering trying. I'm also very anal (sorry for the term) when I buy some items, as I also hate wasting money on products that never deliver what they promise.
ReplyDeleteThis should give consumers a less costly way of trying different products.
ReplyDeletethis is totally good if you're just going to pay for the shipment! i would definitely get one my self too if i am in the Philippines right now!
ReplyDeleteI love using herbal products. I've been using malunggay-infused products for quite some time now. =)
ReplyDeleteYes! Sample Room is a great place to get samples - or sometimes full sizes! - of products that you want to try. I am just sad that there are fewer items to pick these past weeks and super laki ng points na needed dun sa palaging available. I have not tried the moringa lotion yet. How was it for you?
ReplyDeleteGreat! Sample Room seems like an interesting site to test a new product. Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteNever heard about sample room. Now, I'm checking the site. It's cool that you get the chance to try it before you actually use it on regular basis.
ReplyDeletenever tried this, buti na lang di pa ako kumukuha sa kanila.:)
