Getting invites to trial products?
60 posts, 20 members
Hi there, I'm a relative newbie to this site and was wondering if there's anything I can do to get more invites to review products? I'm sure I read somewhere that it's possible to register interest to review products and that if an opportuntity then comes up to review that product you may get selected (if you meet the criteria etc), but I can't see how to do this - perhaps I dreamt it up?? I'm enjoying posting reviews of products I use, and reading what others think of products I haven't used yet, but I'd love to get a few more opportunties to try out products too!
I suggest you go into the polls that are available as they do have listings for trials for which they send out invites.
Getting on trials happens eventually, there is no set time frame.
When a trial is offered you may decide not to do it for any number of reasons, unable to review in the timeframe, it is not a colour/product that you would wear. Better to refuse a trial than mess it up and never get offered another one. Have a read of the FAQs at the bottom of the page as this has lots of details about trials and how they happen.

ragingfrog has it all summed up, but you have to also understand that there is alot of people on this site with limited product quantity to review, even some of us "oldies" that have been here a while now don't get regular trial invites, the last time I got one was back in October I think, so don't get dishearted because that isn't what BR is about, ok yes everybody loves a freebie but BR does far more. But to get yourself more noticed take part in the daily poll each day, converse on the forum regularly and write reviews on products you currently have and are using =)
Hi there
The girls have all made good points. BR now has over 20,000 members so it can take a while for your name to come up. Members
Most importantaly products on trial teams are always matched to the profile of the person that product is designed for, to ensure the best match possible.
So say you are a 19 year old with oily skin, you wouldn't be chosen for a trial team for an anti ageing product targeted at 40 year olds with dry skin.
Hope this helps, and yes check out our FAQ's here.

The other thing you need to know about BR is that they aren't just going to give away a product to anyone... they match a product to your profile information, so if you have dry skin you wont be sent products for oily skin etc.
Sometimes it can take a while for a product that fits you to come along for trialling also there maybe a large number other members also in the same boat.
Product trials are just an added bonus on BR, what most of us are here for is reading reviews to save us money on products that don't live up to their claims or to find that Holy Grail we have been searching for; as well as for the advice and kowledge found here. And as mentioned above this is a community of wonderful well meaning lovelies.
Hopeing you enjoy your time here with us

Haha, I just missed out on a trial too - I logged on a couple hours after the invite was sent but I guess everyone else had everything crossed for this product too :)
BR is amazing, and like the others have said, the site itself is the best bit with all the info, the supportive forum and brilliant articles. The competitions and trials are just an added bonus :)

Welcome! You'll love it here
My best piece of advice is to get involved and be active in the community both here and on social media. You'll have so much fun and the BR ladies will get to know you and I'm sure in no time a trial will come up that will be perfect for you and you'll be in the front of their minds. In the meantime enjoy the scene here, but lock up your wallet because these gals are shameless enablers

I'm also a newbie to BR and found these comments really useful. I've been on BR for under a month now but I'm already addicted. I literally sit on here for over 2 hours at a time...theres just soooo many products and interesting aticles to read there are not enough hours in a day to get through all of it. so there are plenty of ways to get involved within the BR community :)
Can't be bothered starting a new thread (and I also don't want to email the crew and be annoying haha) - did anyone else get the facemask/wipe trial (obviously some did! lol) reason I ask is I still haven't had an email to say they've been sent out :< it hasn't been 2 weeks yet but usually they're pretty quick!
I am zee releaser of invites - I try to mix it up, keep ya on your toes. We used to have tick tock 7 o clock, but of course that didn't suit everyone, so now it's random times.
My favourite complaint was 'Why send a teacher an invite at 2pm that's so unfair'. (obviously not from you ladies, Trudi and Soozie).
Shaz hahahaha that's pretty late even for me, I can't even blame Billy because he sleeps better than me!

I declined the Moisture Mist invite that I got (as I had FOMO and I went out and bought the LE box last week :) so I wanted to leave the spot for someone else) and the little "1" disappeared from my inbox. I thought it might have stayed there like it does when you accept an invite or miss out on one.
I also agree that mixing it up makes it fairer. Thanks for pointing out that I was not the teacher who made the complaint, Nat lol. I certainly had my hands full at that time though. There should be a rule against timetablng Social Studies last period on a Friday!
Shaz, I can't even work out how much money I will need for five weeks away, never mind where I'm going to find it! Haha, need to go by the packing rule of: pack half as much clothes and twice as much money.
Love the Gilmore Girls.

Oh em gee! You need to watch Gilmore Girls!... But even more so YES about Marco Polo. That latest season really shocked me and I loved it. I've been watching so much stuff on Netflix lately... There is a doco called Animism which is super weird but quite cool (I love watching/learning about people).
i've never seen the Gilmore Girls either!
I love reality TV when it's singing/cooking/dancing shows, or The Amazing Race, Survivor.... god I love Survivor. I don't know if I can cope with classing the Kardashians and the Real Housewives shows as reality TV haha. Not my thing but more power to you if you love them. I don't believe in guilty pleasures; if you enjoy it, go for it and don't feel guilty, I say!
