So this is kind of interesting.
I sometimes use a site called YouBeauty, and one day they emailed me and said I’d signed up to be a beauty panelist (or something like that, I truly don’t remember, I think I signed up for it a few years back) and would I like to try a sample of something called Resveratrol?
Sure, I said.
I tried it and it actually worked very well, so well that I wrote a review of it. It actually worked so well that I regretted it working so well– good skin hydration, fewer lines– because the stuff is kind of expensive.
Then the SkinCeuticals folks saw that review and asked if they could edit it for use in an email blast.
Thus, my spokesmodel career was born! Er, not really. But they did send me a couple of samples.
(And they didn’t ask me to promote it on my website or anything like that.)
