Sample sets and vials - updates!

So if you've been with me since the beginning (back in those dark, long-ago days of February 2013), you might know that packaging sample vials has been the bane of my existence. My bête noire if you will. I started out with wand caps because they were highly affordable and fairly standard for perfume samples, and quickly discovered they were messy, leaky, hard to open and generally not terribly user-friendly.

After some digging around, I found some great little rollerball vials that seemed ideal for samples: less prone to leaking and much easier to store and use. Unfortunately it's come to my attention lately that leaks still happen and sometimes the rollerballs get stuck, making the perfume application difficult. Obviously this is no good. I want you to have the best possible experience when you try one of my perfumes and a big part of that is presentation. If you can't actually use and enjoy the perfume, I'm letting you down.

So I've shopped around again and I've found something that I hope solves the problem once and for all:

How cute are these little bottles? They're 2ml amber vials and here's my top 5 reasons they beat out wand caps and rollerballs:

1. They're bigger! You get double the sample to play with.

2. No messy wands to fiddle with. I always find I can never apply as much perfume as I want with a wand; these little bottles will let you slather to your heart's content.

3. No sticky rollerballs. I'll admit it, I love those rollerballs, but they just don't work! The bottles mean there's no fuss and muss in applying your perfume.

4. They're adorable! Like little baby perfumes.

5. They're easy on my fingernails. Alright, that doesn't really benefit anyone but me, but believe me - it's hard to get the tops on those rollerball vials!

So as of today, all sample sets and single samples will be packaged in these bottles. As these bottles are a little costlier than the previous vials, I have raised the prices just a tiny bit (50p/$0.80 per set) to cover the cost, but you're getting twice the amount of perfume so I reckon we all come out even! 

So I think this will tackle the problems we've been encountering with sample vials. As always, I thrive on feedback, so I hope you'll let me know how you find them :)
