Free samples to use in crackers/advent calendar?

[AuntieMaggie]

Can anyone recommend places to get free samples throughout the year to put towards crackers or advent calendars for women?

Loccitane send samples every time you purchase something so might be worth asking in store if there’s anything you could have to try?

The Chanel make up counter used to be quite forthcoming with stuff

Feel unique offer a sample service, something like 5 samples for £4 although I’m not sure I’d bother for things like sachets.
Last year I made my dds a beauty advent calendar each. They LOVED them so much,
I bought things from space nk and cult beauty (that I would have been buying anyway) and timed it with their GWP offers and ended up with just about enough bits to fill all their drawers. I did buy a few extras to put in because I knew they wanted them.
Not worth it though unless you’re buying from them anyway to get the GWP’s.
I order a lot of beauty stuff online and always get complimentary samples, I have a box in my drawers of all the sachets and little pots of things - dds find this quite useful…

I think avon had an offer of 3 samples for £1

Clarins are always generous with samples in my experience, other counters less so. I would just keep asking whenever I went to a department store. I think if you're honest about what it's for then they're more likely to give you stuff.

Marks and Spencer's sell tiny perfume testers.

I’m on Instagram and followed a few posh beauty brands. It’s surprising how often they have a form to fill in to get a free sample and no postage cost. Ok you have to sign up for their newsletter but you can unsubscribe after you have received it.
So far I have received several moisturisers, serums, foundation, perfume and conditioner.
I’ve been using them to take on holiday but they are a great size for an advent calendar.
