TAGS: Getting Involved • Readers • Testers •

Its full steam ahead at Candy HQ, and let’s just say I am inundated, not just for this blog but in all aspects of my life.

So this is where you come in. I am looking for a roster for people who would be happy to test out and review products for me. I would send an good sized sample for you to test and it could be anything - skincare, hair stuff, cosmetics.

You MUST be reliable. I know sometimes something may not suit your skin, and sometimes you may forget to use something – thats fine but be honest with me and I won’t have to send round the heavies….

Your review may stand on its own or it may be next to mine – this way the reader has two perspectives on the same product.

I can’t promise how often I can send things out or how often I’ll need testers, but once we get going it will be exciting cos you get to try out new goodies!

Leave a note in the comments if you are interested, and I’ll be in touch if there’s something suitable. Copy & Paste:

Name:

(i.e. – I.P. Freely)

Age Group:

(i.e – Under 20, 21-30, 31-40, 41-50, 51 +. This helps me decide if a product is good for your skin type or not – no point sending a 16 year old an anti aging serum!)

Skin Type:

Hair Type:

Skintone:

(you can use MAC colour references if necessary)

Notes:

(i.e. – I love you Rowena etc.)

And make sure your email is filled in!

Merci!

Hair Type: Asian, straight, color treated (with extensions in right now), fine (can’t hold a curl without excessive use of styling products!)

Skintone: Pale olive, NC30?

Notes: Been a beautyaholic for years now, my last major haul (about $700 in cosmetics) was 3 years ago but always trying out the latest and greatest. And on the hunt for the HG mascara like you, but can’t claim that I have quite as many mascaras as you! Love to try out everything and anything and always post in great detail (did a post reviewing manemaxx on makeupalley.com). Thanks for considering me!

Skin Type: Mixed skin type – Oily and dry – Sensitive

Hair Type: Dark Brown

Skin tone: Medium Beige

Notes: I am a at home mom as well as a student. Since I have had my daughter I have had to go from the make-up I used to wear to finding a new product due to the change after having her and my skin no longer agrees with the product I was using. I love make-up and being able to dress myself up for a night on the town or just going to class and even around the house. I am still in the process of finding one that works with my skin that gives me a good look, stays on, moisturizes and does not dry my skin and does not cake. It has not been easy. I came across you in the process of looking up new products and would love to be considered for your trial. I would be glad to keep in contact as to how it works for me and give my opinion . I hope you have a wonderful day and hope I hear from you and the possibility of being able to try your brand. Thank you again.

Sincerely,
Candice Kemp

Name: Julie Y

Age Group: 21-30 (more specifically: 23)

Skin Type: Normal/Combination in Winter/Spring; Combination/Oily in Summer/Fall

Hair Type: Dark brown/Black, dry, easily frizzed, not shiny, possible split ends

Skintone: Buff4C (in Lancome’s Teint Miracle Foundation)

Notes: I am a new reader to your site. Your reviews are detailed and have helped with some purchases, even though we do not share the same skin type (I live in Hawaii so the climate is always hot). I’m sure shipping would be a b*tch to Hawaii so I would be amazed if you used me as a tester. I am constantly reviewing products and since I am in the culinary/pastry field having makeup that lasts over a hot steam kettle would really help!
