Influenster

Being harassed on other social media sites by employees of the app, including attempts to dox, is a no in my book. That crosses multiple lines. If you have anything negative to say about your user experience, they will find you on other apps. It's creepy and a safety issue. It used to be a decent site. It's gotten unusable since the merger. Employee aggression against users was the last straw. Don't give your information to these people. It's not safe.

The free samples are fine. However, they offer cash back on some products, but rarely deliver on that. Only order a "cash back" product if you would buy it full price, because they probably won't be sending you the promised money back.

I've gotten so many absolutely awesome products from Influenster for free in exchange for my real honest review! They aren't asking for lies, they simply want the truth! And I tell ut exactly as I see it and experience it, and have recieved such fantastic products! Look at the photos, those are from just the last couple of months!

Scam. Don't waste your time. I spend thousands of $ at sephora a year & this app didn't send me even 1 product to try. Not very smart seeing as im always kind in reviews unlike the crazy amount of bad reviews people leave on sephora, after actually getting a box. They just want reviews on old stuff & not actually promote anything. Oh & now they want to manipulate people taking photo reviews. Showing you how they want product pictures to look professional. Yeah I'll do that, right now. If you want a few tampon join influenster! If you want luxury products forget it, not gonna happen even if you're a frigging Rouge that would actually buy it & not just leave a snarky review after getting it. F+ OH yeah and the drug dealers on there is insane just posting blatantly offering fentyl, pills even horse tranquilizers. Trash.

Influenster is a pack of liars. They tell you you're getting this great product, only to have it not show up. They're scumbags, their customer service absolutely sucks and they've left me embarrassed and upset. Avoid at all costs, if it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.

Yes there collecting our data and know exactly what we do online. But that is where we signed up for. People think it's a Santa app and just apply and get lots of free products but they haven't read how it works. So they get mad because there not getting anything.
They don't read the terms and conditions. If you read it you know what you signed up for it's not a bad app.

Only they are growing to fast and making to many changes that's why it's a mess. I am disabled for a few years now and it is better then doing nothing. That's the reason i am a member of more similar websites and apps. But we don't have many in the Netherlands. To bad have of the people do it for free products and don't even know what a review is and what it can do to a product or company.
That when you give a product a one only because you don't like the color or the product or just write bad things because you had a bad experience then please stop and do something else. The brand pays a lot of money on this, and you could see the product works perfectly and I would buy it again but then in an other color. This is a little bit to bright for me but that is my personal opinion maybe you love this color then this is perfect for you.

Ever since I joined Influenster I fell in love with it more and more. I love reviewing, answering, asking, and receiving free samples. It's very easy to be apart of this community.

Absolutely outstanding and very impressed with the products and the reviews and the returns backs I appreciate their business and help

When I first signed up, I received Vox Boxes regularly. Good stuff -- pricey beauty products, even a car seat system. Fast forward 6 years, and now I get nothing, no matter what I do. I suspect that it's related to my social activity: either because I refuse to post on social (never have, and it was never a problem before) or because my following is small. It's a bummer, because I really enjoyed the site.

I love this app where you get to try out free products and share about them with all of your followers

I see a lot of reviews of people not getting boxes and listing what they think the reasoning is and a lot of them are not true. I don't know how they select who gets what but I can say that I'm 43 years old, I joined Nov2020 and since then I've received over 23 boxes. Some boxes have one item some have multiple. I have received $65 ABH eye palette,$200 worth of makeup from Valentino, hundreds of dollars in amazing face care products, Biolage shampoo, conditioner and shine spray, redken hair care, hair dye, dog products, soups, deodorant, drugstore quality cosmetics, cold/allergy meds, Clorox wipes, oxiclean laundry stuff, coach perfume and the list goes on. Recently a lot of people received a Keurig machine and full box of cooking pans, electric yard tools, clothes, shoes, I've seen where people have gotten refrigerators that costed thousands…basically the opportunities are endless. Yes, u do have to do the reviews on the products u get for free, that a fair exchange for free quality products. But I DO NOT spend hours on the app doing random reviews or interacting with people. You do have to fill out ur personal profile so they know ur interests and you MUST do the surveys that come to ur email asking if u want to participate in a box campaign, that's how u sign up for specific items you are interested in testing. This is a great company that gives great products! Currently I have 3 active campaigns meaning I have gotten 3 boxes of products in the past month to review. It's definitely worth it!

Bunch of games, stupid surveys. Amateur reviewers. A big waste of time better spent doing something else!

Influenster is an app and website where people like you and me post reviews. Why post reviews besides genuinely liking to help people out? Like anything they ask a lot of questions just fill it out. They send you surveys based on your likes and dislikes. You fill out the surveys and you will either get a voxbox or not. Yes in the beginning its kinda a pain filling out all the snaps. But once you do it, it's done. Plus I have been with them for years. It's worth it. I'm a no body and have received high end brands like Dior. Helpful hint connect all your social accounts it helps your impact score. ( better chance of getting a voxbox. You never pay for shipping or anything totally free!

I've been a member for a couple of years now. Getting products is not easy. You have to spend endless hours engaging with other users, submitting reviews, and completing surveys that they call "snaps" to potentially qualify for products. I've never received high end products; instead, I've gotten a few pharmacy brands. At this point, I haven't received anything in the past 3 years, but they still expect me to be active on my account. I emailed them to ask if there was anything wrong with my account or any limitations, but they said my account was in good standing and that I just didn't qualify for the products for whatever demographic reason. Long story short, with the amount of time you spend here you might as well get a job, get paid for it (which is guaranteed) and buy the stuff yourself.

I had noticed that the stores that sold Little Debbie Nutty Buddy Bars no longer stocked them. I happened to find some Nutty Buddy's in a Dollar General Store. I ate one or two. Taking it out of the wrapper it fell apart and didn't come out whole as it normally does. Noticed that it was soft when I ate it. The Nutty Buddy Bar upset my stomach and caused Gas! I had lots of farts. When I Farted i had real loose Poo in my pants. It was terrible! Every time I would Pee I had to wipe my Butt from the times I would Fart! I called Nutty Butty Office of ConSumer affairs. They contradicted everything I said. Said the bars had melted after I bought them. I said no I bought them that way. Well I couldn't wait to eat one when I got home! I love Nutty Buddy Bars and have eaten many of them. Buying them every 2 weeks when I would buy groceries. I told comsumer affairs that The Customer was Always RIGHT! They were NO help at all that's why I'm up here making a complaint.

I have been on this site for a two years never got anything in the mail no box I don't see why I have to work for free. No one else would. The makeup you have to buy yourself and if you hate it you are stuck with it wasting money you don't have to begin with. Then you have to answer people's questions like their going to get a different answer than what was posted. It's bull$#*! and no one gets anything but their account hacked and used.

I love Influenster! I've heard from friends who signed up and did surveys, filled out the voxbox forms and never received a product. I have no idea why that is and can only speak from my experience. I signed up one day bored and recently gotten into makeup. I left a bunch of reviews on makeup products I recently bought and within a few weeks got asked to fill out a survey for my first voxbox. Please note I had no followers or much engagement being on there and the social media linked is just average, I don't have a huge following. I got a full size Anastasia Beverly Hills foundation (which I already owned but love so had a backup). The checklist for reviewing products is easy, leave a review on the app and places like Sephora which I do anyway. After that I'd get a box of products every 2-3 months. Products have varied. I've gotten drugstore makeup/hair products, skincare, ranch dressing, full size designer perfume and most recently a $60 ABH face pallette that just launched. I love Influenster and I've been doing it for a couple years now. I definitely don't sit on there and review like I used to, honestly I don't leave reviews at all unless it's part of a product I received but I still get good items on a regular basis.

I have never heard of this site/app until 15 minutes ago. I wanted to read some real reviews for products after seeing the reviews on Amazon and other sites seemed to have fake/all positive reviews, and Influenster prompted me to register/log in. I tried to register with an email address I never use or give to anyone. The site said I was already registered. So I tried with another old email address I haven't used in 11 years. Site says that address is already registered. I tried with my personal every day go-to email address. Already registered. I searched each email account - no record of ever having/receiving anything from this site/domain despite the fact that I've never deleted an email from my inbox on any of the first 2 accounts. So I went back to the site and tried a password reset for each of my email accounts. Never got a password reset email in any of my accounts. Something is seriously wrong with this site - either they're registering fake accounts with email addresses they got from a junk mail list so they'll look legit, or the site/account creation/login/etc are all broken.

Very first time heard about this and wanna see how it will works have no idea what to do as a begginer

Simple -easy - and very happy to cash out!
I decided on Amazon-because I shop there nonstop!
And I needed ink for my printer and dog food asap!

Same here, I registered for almost four or five years, never received any offer from this site. They just simply make sure everyone leaves reviews for tons of stuffs and they can get money from these product companies. From the step where they ask you to review products first is where they start to lure you. Do not expect you will receive medium or high-end level products. They make you "work" for free and that's it.

It's obviously the typical pyramid selling approach. They use your genuine reviews that you spent hours writing to give outsider people illusion- the products they introduce is the best on the market, and you should "purchase" it right away! This is how they create tension and competition. Making you think you are worth nothing if you do not follow their rules! They manipulate your data in order to gain more profits!

They either give dollar value coupon and force you to purchase something you were not actually wanted to purchase. They are just marketing strategy selling company! Only the people who write the most reviews get the opportunity to review new or better products. I'm not saying it's unethical, it's just not worth the time to do it! There are people who got the chance to review new products. Just not me, or you. It's like a person holds one bottle of water in desert. You can see him but when you try to reach him, he disappeared!

I already canceled my account half a year ago. I didn't write many review, I only wrote like 2 or 3. If you don't believe me I've got nothing to say! I'm not the type of person who would like to write reviews for everything that I purchase. What I suggest is control your urge of purchasing products. This way no one can control you.

Anyways, don't risk your health on test products and your time to them!

Why did I stop using their website and refused to write reviews? Because I've seen a lot of people try their best to write reviews, it's like imagine another hundreds of myself trying to "work" this way out, it is just insanely crazy. Luckily I didn't sink too deeply.

For god sake, just search out how many this type of companies are out there. I do not really care about how other people use a product and what's their opinion, even if it's brilliant in their own way, I still do not because this type of companies only cares about profits. They do not improve on their customer service, look how many employee they have. If they really care about customers they would work like other product-testing companies!

I have been a member for about 4 years. At first, before they sold the company, I would get awesome VoxBoxes. From companies like Dior. But I haven't gotten one in@ least a year, despite busting my butt on that site doing reviews and snaps. It's all based on your number of followers now whereas before it wasn't. This is really unfair to those of us who have been loyal to them. My advice: Unless you have all day to spend on social media, don't bother trying to get a box from these people.

Influenster is amazing, it's NOT as hard as many people make it out to be. Patience and participation is key! You won't get high end products for free without putting in a little bit of work.(Completely understandable). In my opinion, it is a lot of fun to be an influenster. You get to try amazing products for free, read reviews, write reviews, and communicate with others. It's a great way to find out about new products and find out if they are for you or not. It gives you something to work towards and it really is a pleasant experience. Most people assume you have to have a high impact score or you won't get a box, that is absolutely incorrect. I am proof of that. I do NOT have a huge following at all and I just received a really awesome box and I'm waiting on the next one to arrive! My score is only 859(medium) and it has gone up since I received the box. I believe it was 780 when I was selected to receive the box. It's mostly demographics, completing snaps, writing reviews, and interacting with others on the app that matters. Of course, I'm sure a higher score helps, but it's not a requirement. You do need to complete a few easy tasks to earn a badge after you receive each box, but it's super simple. It is a lot of fun to be a part of influenster and it's very exciting to receive boxes and to learn about awesome products! Try it out for yourself and see! If you do it right, you'll really enjoy it.
