(UPDATED) Spotted: New beauty clearance markdowns at Walgreens

Huge thanks to reader Melissa (@mommywiggles in Twitter) for this one. Melissa spotted some brand new clearance markdowns at her local Walgreens and was nice enough to share the details with us!

Before I get to the pics, a few things:
  • Not all Walgreens stores put things on clearance at the same time or for the same price. So my advice is, if you don't see orange tags, take a few of these items to the register and ask a cashier to scan them...they might be on clearance in the system even if there is no tag on the display.
  • When an entire line (vs. just a few shades within a line) is marked down by 50% or 75%, it often (but not always) means that the entire line is about to be discontinued. So to be safe, stock up while you can, if any of these items are your favorites.

 L'Oreal The One Sweep Eyeshadows (all shades) 50% off at Walgreens

I'd just like to say that back in December of 2010, when The One Sweep eyeshadows first hit drugstores, I predicted in my review that these would be on clearance a year later (December 2011). I was two years off in my prediction but...here you go!

Revlon Colorstay Smoky Shadow Sticks 75% off at Walgreens

Have you spotted these products (or any other beauty products) on clearance at YOUR Walgreens stores lately? I know that random limited edition cosmetics often turn up in the clearance aisle, but since those types of clearance markdowns are unpredictable and vary wildly from store to store, I only post about orange-tag-on-the-display type clearances when it comes to Walgreens because these are often nationwide.

Thanks so much, Melissa and Lisa, for the great sighting and pics. I really appreciate it!

I saw all these clearance sales at my Walgreens in Pittsburgh. All items and prices were the same except the gel nail polish is $7.49 here. Also today I found a huge clearance sale at a local Kmart. Idk if it's just in the Pittsburgh area but it's worth checking into. First the following Loreal was on clearance:
One sweep e/s, 24hr infalliable e/s, Infalliable lipgloss, Le rouge lipstick, Le Balms, Le Gloss, 24hr infalliable lipsticks, Colour Riche lipgloss, Hip e/s duos, True match pressed powder, True match liquid foundation, True match lumi liquid foundation and Loreal nailpolishes and Nail lingerie Diamond collection. All the items mention include ALL COLORS.
Maybelline LE colorshow stick on
mirror
Nicole Gumdrops collection all colors
All Nicole nailpolish colors including the Modern Family and Selena Gomez collections. As well as some Bongo lipglosses and nail polishes.
Here's the even bigger deal there were signs posted stating that MEMBERS GET 99% BACK IN POINTS ON ALL YELLOW TAGGED CLEARANCE COSMETICS!! So imo it's definitely worth checking your local Kmarts. I plan to get my coupons together and clean up tomorrow. Hope this helps someone as I appreciate all you do G. and ladies.

I already have seen those Revlon shadow sticks at big lots.that CG mascara is actually really good, but I don't think it ever caught on.

na said...

I have seen those Revlon shadow sticks at my Big Lots for awhile now, so yeah, probably discontinued.

Unknown said...

Oh my gosh I want to go like NOW to check and see if our Walgreens has the gel polishes on sale! I tried one of those Kiss ones recently and I thought it wore really well!

Sparkles and Shadows said...

The rimmel nail polish was on clearance but marked as regular price so I had the cashier scan, score. Unfortunately that was the only thing on clearance as of yet. I'm in central California

lilycat51 said...

same for me!

Moxxi Crimefightr said...

Yeah, doing my order review showed a lot of discontinued merch on the wall. Sakkt Hansen Crackle is on clearance and um ... I think miracle growth is discontinued, too.

Robin said...

I think I am heading to Walgreens today to see if I find any of the Revlon products clearance. This is fun news!!!! Thanks!!!

V.A said...

NOO! Not covergirl lash perfection! That's straight up my HG mascara. Dam. I'm gonna have to stock up!!

T.Lillian.N said...

SH nailgrowth miracle was clearanced at my walgreens too! (I'm in texas)

Abigail said...

Hooray! The goat toenail is finally on sale!

Sachinky said...

Those Revlon eyeshadow sticks were on sale at Big Lots. I picked up 2 for $2.00 each. Most of the same stuff is on clearance at my local Walgreens in Albuquerque. Miracle Growth, too. I picked up 2 Rimmel Pro nail polishes.

Libby's Pink Vanity said...

I noticed quite a few clearance the last time I was in there. Some are very worth the look.

woaahitsfrances said...

I saw a bunch of stuff on clearance at my walgreens! Revlon DNA concealer for 2.00 and change DNA foundation. Covergirl flame out sticks, Covergirl pressed powder and their little squeeze tubs of lipgloss. I also noticed the revlon bronzed in Bronzed & chic. As well as some contouring trios from revlon. There was a loreal visible lift powder on clearance, and the cream blushes as well!

Jessica said...

I got the revlon bronzed & chic bronzer at mine for 3.29 and the revlon age defying concealer for 2.59. Both were marked with the stickers!

Kayla said...

I got those items too! I also say some always eyeshadow with primer kits.

SAMV said...

At my walgreens I got 2 revlon photoready blush bronzer and highlight pallets for $3.29, then the second one was half off. I got pink and berry, natural was also available. I also got revlon age defy concealer in light for $2.89, only light was on clearance. There were also maybelline nail stickers for $0.50.

SAMV said...

Rimmel HD eyeshadow was half off as well.

Kayla said...

I mean ALMAY

Unknown said...

My Walgreens also had the Kiss Gel starter system 50% off for $10.99!!!

Johnna said...

I found Real Techniques brush sets (the basic and the eye one) for 50% off. I have no idea if that was a one shot deal or if it's at all Walgreens, but I know they get a lot of love so I was excited to find them for $9!

Jeannie said...

In the Walgreens coupon book, there's a coupon for $5 off on the Sally Hansen Insta-Gel Strips, which I saw on clearance at one of my Walgreens. I can't remember how much it was, but with this coupon, I'm sure it's going to be a steal!
