Shiny. Literally

[impy]

Look what followed me home:



Apparently these aren't supposed to be out til August? I'm bitterly disappointed that I didn't grab the pretty blue one before I was forced to sell the last one last night, BUT... I'm hoping that they'll restock and I'll catch it.

Orbit is a purple base, Satellite is burgundy, Moondust is black, and Supernova is grey. There are 4 other color duos, including the blue. Which looks awesome and you should learn from my mistake and buy if it's not a total repeat in your collection.

If you're into such things, hit your Walgreens and do the following before Saturday as they are currently Buy 1, Get 1 50% Off

Snag these (ours are on the Cos counter), then very kindly ask the Cos person if they have any coupons as you flip through the coupon book for the Revlon Nail/Lip coupon. My store had $2 off any Revlon product.

Follow the math:
Each duo is 7.99, so since it's B1G1... essentially you get the third one free before anything else.
- $4 from the Easy Saver Catalog (make sure the coupon actually takes money off. Mine had to be adjusted.)
- $8 from the Revlon coupons
= About $12 (or, if you're like me and an employee or you can take advantage of someone's discount, it's 8.37 plus tax. WOO.

Dude, that's like buy one, get three free. :D

Even better because I'd returned something and had store credit. *dances*

And yes, yes that is Stacey's font. *cough*


Gotta go wake people up because it's take kitty to vet day. Wish her luck!

Cool! I don't know if I'll be able to find the coupons (I don't think I've ever actually seen anyone at that counter), but I think I will be stopping by our local Walgreen's tonight to check these out!! I wish I didn't destroy my nails every chance I get though...

My nails are tiny little nubs and I may have sneezed while applying the sparklie bits to my thumb so that's just not a pretty sight. :p If there isn't anyone able to help you in cos, look around at the Revlon displays (there should be a few since our store has like, 6) and see if there are coupons on them. At least two of the smaller displays have coupons set up in the display and while I think one of them is the $1 off anything, the other one might be the $2?

LOL - I *just* read a review of these last night! Freaky :P

These are a little too pricey for me, even with the deal (and Fergie has already wiped out way too much of my money this month), but who knows what could happen if I see these in person :P I'm a sucker for blues, and - now that I know how to remove it - glitter.

And Stacey's font was *perfect* for this post - she and Claud would be all over this, LOL!!

[snarky-imp.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't have found them except I noticed the Fergie display apparently came down in my absence. (Proof they sold since displays don't come down til half the product moves or it becomes painfully obvious the stuff will never sell) That meant I had to go look for it and instead found these.

*grin* I couldn't resist the Stacey font.

And that's the review I used to double-check the polish names!

[luxken27]

o.O You guys take down displays when they're half-sold? Wow. I take it that's a good thing?

Those polishes have an official roll-out date sometime in September, so I hope they are coming back! I still have 10 more shades to collect, LOL.

Anyway. Target has the Just Bitten lip balm thingies on sale, and OF COURSE my Revlon coupon has expired *sigh* I'm starting to wonder just how much I want to try this thing, LOL, considering it's $10 everywhere else :P

Ooh! Are we talking the newer one that looks like a crayon or the slightly older one that looks like a marker? Because I've been eying the crayon one something fierce. But it's 8.99 and... and... I've yet to pull the trigger, obviously.

Not sure if it's a Walgreens wide thing or just our strange little store that I'm fairly certain operates in its own little bubble, but some displays get yanked at half full status and some linger. (The aforementioned Revlon lip balm? Almost completely empty for a week but it stayed up.) I think it depends on where they are/what they've got to replace it with.

I shall hope mightily that they comeback, or your stores don't send the display off into the warehouse of doom.

I see from your latest post that you did ;) And that's what I was talking about - whatever version is out there now. I'm fairly new to the world of drugstore makeup so I didn't realize they'd been out long enough to have a relaunch :P

Even if they do...maybe it will appear at CVS or Rite Aid? *hopes*

[snarky-imp.livejournal.com]

They're both out there, but I think the crayon one debuted when Emma Stone became one of their spokesmodels or whatever it's called.

Oh, drugstore makeup. I know way too much about you and still manage to know so very little.

And yes! I keep forgetting Rite Aid, which is a shame since I used to love them so. May the Fergie luck be with you when you have the money to acquire shiny things. :D
