Yes, thats right you can get freebies on this site. Original Source are manufacturers of tolietries using natural oils and fragrances, and their products really do pack a punch! Ok, I will own up - the freebies aren't great. In fact you only get a sachet but hey (!) its totally free. But ... Read review
Advantages: You can adopt a splod Disadvantages: you may leave him to die
At the risk of being considered a right scruff by all you Yanks out there, I’ll confess that, we don’t have a shower. We have a bath, which is big enough for two, and if we wanted a shower we’d have to lose this, as there isn’t room for both. So, we kept what I prefer!
~~~
Because of this, I almost deleted the e-mail that arrived from Original Source inviting me to send for a free sample of shower gel, but then I thought, “Why not? It’s only soap ... ...off I went to www.originalsource.co.uk to see what was on offer. When you first register, you complete a short questionnaire for the chance to win £10 worth of products and only one person per household is allowed. After completing the formalities, I sat back and waited. ~~~
Lo and behold, a padded packet dropped through my letterbox a week later with a full size sachet of their lemon and tea tree shower gel. I day or so later I received an e-mail ...

Advantages: Simple to navigate, full of relevant information, freebies! Disadvantages: Ordering free samples can be a long process
In my quest for cruelty-free cosmetics I figured the internet would be the best place to gather all the information I needed. I came across the Original Source website when some student pals told me excitedly that “they give you free stuff!” Intrigued, I checked out their animal testing policy before I got too excited. Happily, Original Source is part of Cussons, a reputable cruelty-free company whose other products such as Carex and ... ...explored the site.
AESTHETICS
It hits you with a mass of luminous colour, but this is more appealing then off-putting, as it all works together really well. Product information benefits from clear images of each item, and the layout is easy to navigate and not at all complicated to read. Maybe the bright colours don’t make this so easy on the eyes for some, but overall this is a pleasant and fitting design.

Advantages: Nothing Disadvantages: Sloppy service. Products supplied not those ordered
Products are sold at high street prices . Threshold to avoid paying for postage seems high. Compared to other comparable experiences, buying on the internet, the service was fairly slow. One product on my order was detailed on the packing list but was not included with the order. Without any reference to me, the missing item was substituted with another product - one I did not order and did not want. Another product (shower gel)had lost its top, ... ...packaging. I wrote via e-mail to originalsource to point out my problems but my correspondence was just ignored . No obvious adavantage of buying directly from Original source rather than from an online super- market - who deliver for the same price in a fraction of the time.. ...

Advantages: Nice site to look at, bright and cheerful. They give you free stuff! Disadvantages: Poor customer services.. Site sometimes doesn't want to load pages and often crashes.
Well yes there is,loads of information on the site as far as products and origin are concerned but I wanted to buy, buy, buy. As we are all aware it’s nearly Christmas and to digress for a second I have to say I AM SOOOOO EXCITED ABOUT THAT, heeeheeheee. I am so excited in fact that I have my decorations up, that’s not as sad as it sounds though as I do have two small children who now think their home is Santa’s grotto :O)
So on with the review. ... ...girly’s in my family; I am going to make up boxes, which will hold the contents of very lovely Lush and Original Source products. So off I toddle to www.originalsource.co.uk. I know there are plenty of you out there who will be very familiar with the site but for those who aren’t I am going to give you a little information.
Before I get carried away, I’ll just tell those Original Source virgins out there that this company makes various products, ...

Advantages: original, different, health related issues are focused on Disadvantages: range
I was really impressed with this site, when I first heard about it I thought that it was another freebie site, but here there is a difference and a big one as well. You are not sent to other links and made to sign upto web pages inorder to receive your freebie.
Instead you can get them at the site, so it saves you ample time in trying to find a freebie sample which is suitable to you. You have to sign up, which does not take long, but is essential ... ...you.
The site is about health, nutrition, fitness etc, it also lists products that are natural and good for your hair, body etc. it uses methods that are not harmful to the environment, and not tested on animals. It also provides valuable information on different issues like aromatheraphy to detoxing. It gives you the best webistes related to these topics.
What I found particularly helpful was the fact it had one section called hints/tips where ...
