ColourPop Ultra Matte Liquid Lipsticks Launching 5PM Pacific Today

UPDATE: ColourPop just tweeted that the Ultra Mattes will be live at 5:00PM Pacific. 

Just a quick FYI: ColourPop posted on their Twitter that the new Ultra Mattes are launching today (Thursday) in the afternoon /evening on their website:

If you haven't seen these yet, check a few posts back on my blog for a pic and links to swatches. They will be $6 each and you can use code Kathleenlights for $5 off your purchase (no minimum required). Shipping is $5.

Hope that helps, and thanks to everyone who took the time to let me know about this!  

(And sorry if this post looks a little strange; I'm writing it from my phone.)

(UPDATED) Coming Soon: Even more new products from Maybelline

We've already got Big Eyes Mascara, Baby Lips Electro, Color Tattoo Pure Pigments, Fit Me Shine Free Gel Sticks, Master Smoky Eye Pencils, Polka Dots polishes, Holographic (duochrome) polishes, and now we've got even more to look forward to from Maybelline!

Prepare to have your mind blown: More sneak peeks at Hard Candy Spring 2013

I don't know what my pal Halifax of Sparkled Beauty is trying to do to me here, but you gotta love her for it! She just tweeted me a link to one of her fellow Canadian beauty bloggers who attended a Hard Candy Spring 2013 launch party, and um, well, seeing is believing. 

CLICK HERE NOW.

Milky glitter polishes called "Candy Sprinkles", jumbo lip colors, pigment duos, shower gels, bubble baths and even clothing?? It's...I can't. I just can't even handle the cuteness. Eye Hard Candy overload! 

Thoughts? I have absolutely no idea when these new goodies will be hitting the US, but I hope it's soon.

Thanks for the new lemmings, Halifax!

OCC Nail Polishes for $2-$4

Just saw on Twitter than Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics is changing their bottle design so they're having a sale on select shades. Click here to view/order.

FYI, most shades are $4 (regular price: $8) but Jack-O and Ghostly are just $2 each.

These are going quickly so don't hesitate if you want some!

Wet n Wild Nutty: don't believe the rumors!

Don't believe the rumors, folks! Contrary to popular belief, the oh-so-popular Wet n Wild eyeshadow single Nutty is NOT being discontinued. I've had many readers ask me about this, so I asked my contact at Wet n Wild for an official confirmation and I can now confirm that Nutty is NOT being discontinued.

I understand that Walgreens currently has some Wet n Wild eyeshadow singles on clearance (including Nutty) but please don't let their clearance tags lead you to believe that all of these products are being discontinued. I will be providing you with an official list of discontinued Wet n Wild products in the near future, but for now I can 100% confirm that Nutty is not on the list.

We can all breathe a sigh of relief now!

Milani and Jordana Cyber Monday codes are working again

Just a quick update on the Milani and Jordana Cyber Monday sales. As I posted yesterday, due to the technical issues on both websites, Milani/Jordana decided to extend their sales through 5PM PACIFIC TODAY, 11/29 (click here for all the details on these sales).

Late last night and early this morning I heard from some of you who said that when you tried to enter the codes, the websites informed you that the codes were "expired". I have spoken to my contact at Milani/Jordana and can confirm that this issue has been fixed, so you should be able to order with the codes now to receive the discount and free shipping.

Hope that helps!

More Cyber Monday offers!

Check out my Cyber Monday Round-Up to see new additions from CoverGirl, NYX, Kiss Cosmetics, Bath & Body Works, Walgreens, CVS, Burt's Bees, Victoria's Secret and more!

You don't want to miss some of these deals (especially the CoverGirl offer!).

Important info regarding the Milani/Jordana sale

I have just spoken to my contact at Milani/Jordana and they are aware of the issues that some customers are currently experiencing on the sites. Fortunately, I have two pieces of information that might make you feel a little bit better if you are having issues with placing an order this morning:

• The Cyber Monday sale has been extended to TOMORROW (Tuesday) at 5PM PACIFIC. So you have plenty of time to order between now and then.

• Per my contact, they are "fully stocked and anticipate being able to fulfill every order". I know that some of you have been concerned that things will sell out quickly (I know I was!) but it sounds like you will have plenty of time to place your order between now and 5PM Pacific tomorrow.

Also, just to make things perfectly clear, you must use code CYBER on both sites in order to get free shipping. If you enter code CYBER at checkout, you will not have to pay any shipping fees for ground orders to the continental United States, Hawaii and Alaska. THERE IS NO MINIMUM ORDER required for the free shipping deal, but you MUST enter code CYBER to get this deal.

Spotted: more clearance items at Walgreens

Remember a few weeks ago when reader Margaret shared all of those great clearance sightings at her local Walgreens? Well since that post, I've heard from many of you about other products that you've spotted on clearance recently at your Walgreens locations and today I'd like to show you a few more pics. I obviously can't guarantee that you'll find these products on clearance at your locations, but hopefully this gives you an idea of what to look out for.

First up, from my pal Rai of Glam Morena:

Assorted Black Radiance eyeshadows

Last chance for Too Faced 50% off + free shipping

There are still a few hours left to take advantage of the Toofaced.com sale! TODAY ONLY (11/25) all Vintage items are 50% off (no code needed) and you can enter code BLACK11 for free shipping + a free deluxe sample.

As of 6:43PM Pacific the only thing that was sold out was the Eyeshadow Singles. Click here to view everything that's on sale today.

I've got my eye on this shadow palette that comes with a full-size tube of Shadow Insurance. Yikes! I told myself I wasn't going to purchase anything online today but I just might cave for that one. It's normally $38 but right now it's $19 (the retail price of the primer alone is $18 so it's like you're getting the eyeshadow palette for a dollar!). I've heard great things about that palette to boot. Argh! Someone stop me!

In addition to that Wet n Wild Fast Dry mini set that's going to be $2.88 with $2 back in Extra Bucks on Black Friday (11/25) at CVS, I noticed in the latest Wet n Wild newsletter that there's ANOTHER promotion at CVS that's going on through 11/30:

Breaking News: Milani and Jordana Cyber Monday Sales

I just received this info from my contact at Milani/Jordana, and I wanted to share it ASAP because these deals are too good to keep to myself!

(click each image to be taken directly to the website)

Ever since I started my Jordana at Walgreens series, I've been hearing from readers who have been wanting to try Jordana but don't have access to their products in their area. Well this is the PERFECT time to give them a whirl. Also, don't forget that there are special products that Jordana has recently brought out of the land of discontinued, which you can only purchase online.

Also, for those of you who have been wanting certain shades of Milani Baked Blushes but can't find them in your area, take advantage of 50% off + free shipping while you can!

Are you planning to make some Milani or Jordana purchases this Monday? If so, what are thinking about picking up?

PS: I'm working on updating my Black Friday master list to include Cyber Monday sales as well, so I'll definitely add this to the list so you don't forget!
