Beauty magazine, Glow, is looking for women to test-drive the latest products on the beauty market, from makeup to hair products, anti-aging miracle creams, body lotions and more. Before they feature items in their print magazine, the Canadian health and beauty guide wants to be sure its readers are fans of the goods.
The first to sample something new? Free products? A chance to have your opinion heard? Sounds fab! The site asks you to fill out a survey to figure out which products you'd be best at testing. What's your hair type? If you have curly hair, they might ship over some defrizzing products. Stick straight mane? Maybe you'll get some ultra volume boosting foam for that extra bit of oomph your tresses have been craving. After the survey, your info is shipped off, and all you have to do is check that mailbox and get ready to experiment.
Fun, interactive, and free! Everyone likes getting a little something fun in the mail -- why not you?
