Kux's Webmendation: SampleRoom.ph

http://www.sampleroom.ph

Ever walked into the beauty section of a mall where you see all sorts of products you want to try out first? Yes, of course you do. The only problem is, being the Filipino that we are, we are too shy to actually approach the sales lady and ask for some samples. Why? Because, again, being the Filipino that we are, we would not escape exchanging looks of hell from people around us while them muttering "Titingin tingin, hindi naman pala bibili."

UGH! Society, why are you so cruel. Of course titignan mo yung product, at most you want to try it out before actually buying it. Hindi mo alam, allergic ka pala or hindi siya compatible sa skin mo. DIBA??

Well, somehow, your problems of shame and annoyance can be solved through SampleRoom.ph. I first encountered SampleRoom.ph through Eva's blog.

SampleRoom.ph is a website that allows you to sample featured products before actually buying them. And the samples are for free! You only have to pay for the shipping fee, which, for my case, has always been PhP100.

First time registrants are given an initial of 100 points. These points are used when you are choosing which item you'd like to sample. Each product has its equivalent points that shall be deducted to your points once you have decided to take that particular sample.

Orders are sent through courier the next day once payment has been verified.

So? How do you get back those lost points? You just have to write a review about the products you have sampled! (Although the review is subject to approval of the ADMIN if it abides by the rules of reviewing.) You get back the points you have used to sample that particular product, PLUS a point for doing a review for that product. That easy, right?

Below are some of the items I tried out. Actually these products are already part of my second order here at sampleroom.ph. The first one, i forgot to blog about. HAHA.

Un-"boxing" the package.

Adore Charmed Body Spray

Mustela Hydra Bebe Baby Lotion

My reviews for these products? Well, you'll just have to go to sampleroom.ph to check them out. Though not now because they have not approved both my reviews yet. HAHA. :P
