"Like" Models Own 50% Off Sale

 

Models Own, a high quality British budget brand (think: Sleek - eyeshadow palettes + nail polishes), will offer a 50% off sale if they reach 50,000 "Likes" on their Facebook page by August 31. The count currently stands at just under 34,000. The brand is also having periodic giveaways to followers during the month.

The Models Own products are inexpensive to begin with but the sale would be especially handy for us international customers, since the shipping fees are £9.95 (about $16). An added catch is that, sale or no, the minimum order has to be £20 ($33) for international shipping. With the items at half off, you might want to split the shipment with a friend or plan on having a decent sized haul of products.

New Zoya Promo!

I'm still recovering from my fourth plane trip in under a month but I'm happy I decided to kill some time on Facebook because I caught the newest Zoya promo as it was announced. The promo requires that you have an account already through the Zoya website (which is free, so if you don't have one for this promo, get it now to catch the next one). The deal is 2 free polishes with any Zoya or Qtica purchase. The super cheap color spoons do not count as a purchase.

To access your personalized code, log into your Zoya.com account, click the "My Account" link and then the "My Coupons/Promos" link. Add your items to the cart, input the code and you're ready to go.

I'm happy this code came along now because there were three shades from the Smoke & Mirrors Fall 2011 Collection that I wanted:  Cynthia (smokey, blackened peacock teal with soft warm undertones), Jem (dark red-toned purple with metallic dark pink highlights and subtle gold duochrome flecks) and Tao (light smoke grey with blue undertones and a muted, softened metallic finish.) I'm curious to see how Tao stacks up next to Butter London's Chimney Sweep, a gorgeous gray shade that sadly has major application issues for me.

Promo Ends: Friday, August 12th 11:59PM ET
