Update -- too long of a hiatus ):

Hello my loverlies!

I am so sorry things have been all quiet here. Our housing options have all fallen through & the husband & I have finally decided to STOP looking & just get a rental place until we figure out what is going on with his naval career. We just submitted the application today, so fingers crossed this will all be said & done & we can get our own place & I can start unpacking all my pretties again & get to making some glorious new products I've been dreaming up.

We also had a family emergency which has brought us down to South Florida which is further extending our time away from getting a place of our own. Please keep my father-in-law in your prayers as he fights his battle with cancer.

That's about it. I'm hoping to make this week & the transition into our new rental place a quick & seamless process.

Love & all things vintage.

Happy New Year!

Wow! It's been a long time coming since I have updated the blog; things got carried away with my home life & in the office. First things first: I hope everyone had a safe & wonderful holiday season. There are some changes that have been made to Lucky 107, so let's get started.

Ladies of Luck  Program:

When the LOL program was started, it was 1 point earned for every $5 spent. I have since changed the policy to every dollar spent is one point. (: This makes it easier to rack up those points to earn towards your rewards! Not a Ladies of Luck member? Go here. The prizes may end up changing but not really sure.

Strike it Lucky:

This is our clearance section of the store. When we do promotions, this section is not included in discounts {except for the LOL discounts earned}.

Discontinued Products:

Some products are being permanently discontinued & will be available in the Strike it Lucky section of the store.

"Zombie" Size LE Halloween Collection: $30 $15
3 full size "Hallow's Eve" collection colors, "VampKiss" caramel apple flavored lip blush, a hair bow made by Crafty Mommas, a monster ring made by The Crafty Owl, 3 pixie sticks, & a 30% off your next order coupon code
"Fledgling" Size LE Halloween Collection: $10 $6
3 sample size "Hallow's Eve" collection colors, "VampKiss" caramel apple flavored lip blush, 3 pixie sticks, & a 15% off your next order coupon code

"Kiss the Frog" Eyeshadow: $5.00 $2.50
a matte, froggy green

"Kiss the Prince" Eyeshadow: $5.00 $2.50
"Kiss the Frog" with an added punch of glitter

"Nibs" Eyeshadow: $5.00 $2.50
an olive drab, matte, brown

More might be added later, but for now, this is what is being discontinued.

What to expect during 2012:

Lucky 107 will be venturing into minor bath & body products {soaps, body scrubs, & some skin care products}; as well as random grab bags, themed grabs bags, etc. Also, our lip glosses will be getting a make over in both formulation & packaging. Our solid lotions will also be getting a make over. :D

Can't wait to see what 2012 holds in stock for us!

Holiday's Come Early...

Hello my loverlies! I am closing the shop down as of December 1st - I will only be filling orders that are submitted by the end of November; why? I am going to spend the rest of the holidays gift shopping & getting ready to spend some quality time with my little family. But don't you worry! I am doing the holiday sales starting November 1st! Here is what I have planned:

1-7 November: Buy any 2 lip service products, Get 1 Free*.
8-14 November: Buy any 2 SINGLE eyeshadows, Get 1 50% off**.
15-21 November: Spend $40 or more {before shipping} & receive 35% off***
22-30 November: Buy any 5 items, get 2 free eyeshadows of your choice**

I will repost this again as it gets closer to November. (:

*Please put your choices in the "notes to seller" section.
**Price will be refunded after checkout
***I will release the coupon code on the 15th.

FDA & the Glitter Fiasco

Recently there was an announcement on a supplier website that cosmetic grade glitter is not on the approved list per FDA. Research has shown that this is indeed the case. FDA is providing an in...terim period for formulators, both indie and corporate, to respond. Responses could range from reformulation to petitioning to have cosmetic grade glitter, which has been used for years in cosmetics, approved by FDA. At this point we will continue to formulate using the industry standard .004 micron cosmetic grade glitter while we await FDA's decision. We are very encouraged by the fact that the ingredient has been in use for years, is approved by the EU, and that FDA is at this point not barring its use. We will be working over the next few days to mark which of our shades contain cosmetic grade glitter so that you may choose whether or not you wish to purchase them. We appreciate your patience while we await the decision and are confident that there will be a swift resolution that will be beneficial for everyone. If you have any questions or concerns please let me know. Thank you.


In any event that the FDA does officially bar all use of cosmetic grade glitter, I will be sending out an email to all those who have purchased any eyeshadows that contain glitter.


Again, I thank you for your continued support.

Some insight into the company changes.. including our own domain name!

Well, my loverlies, after months of fighting & the run around with the great state of Oklahoma, I am happy to say I finally got my sales permit! (:  That being said, I unfortunately have to charge state tax of 4.5% + the city/county tax of any Oklahoma resident. ):  I have a website that I go to to figure out what your city/county tax is. I know zip code 73132 is 8.375% [that includes the state].... For now, when you order via email [still setting up shop], I will include this sales tax. When I finally get the site running, it will automatically charge Oklahoma residents 4.5% & I will have to go through individually to collect your city/county tax. I am sorry of any inconvenience this has caused. [this became effective 19august2011]

Also, at the request of a customer, we have added an additional shipping option of a standard bubble mailer for $2.50 for the first item & 50c for each additional item. Collections, sample packs, eyeshadow bundle packs, etc count as 1 item. When placing an order, if you wish to have this cheaper option, please email me first so that I may post a custom listing for you.

Also! All orders over $15 [before shipping] will receive 15% off! This will last until I open the store front.

One last thing! WE HAVE OUR OWN DOMAIN NAME!! woooo!!! Check it out: http://www.lucky107cosmetics.com/

Coming up in August...

Hey ladies! Some wonderful new things are happening over here in the studio. (: Before I put this off any longer, I figure I would keep you updated!

Coming soon!

• Our "Concrete" Eye primer will no longer sold in 10g pots. Instead they will be sold in lippie squeeze tubes... like these:

  

  We will be using "flat top squeezies"

  The price will be raised from $3 to $4.50.
• We will also be raising the prices our some products. They will be as follows:
• Full Size Eyeshadows: $5
• Eyeshadow Samples: $1
• Collections: +$1.25
• Liquid Samples {Gloss, Creme Blush, Solid Perfumes, etc}: $2
• Lotion Bar Samples: $2.50 
• Matte About You Face Powder {full size}: $12 
• Matter About You Face Powder {sample - 10g jar}: $3 

• Some products will be discontinued & will be sold via facebook until they run out:
• "Goodie2Shoes": $2.50
• "Kiss the Frog": $2
• "Kiss the Prince": $2

• Shipping changes will be that shipping is $5 flat for the US & $10 for international. International packages will also be sent in bubble mailers instead of boxes.
• We will no longer be selling on ArtFire. I am working on a website & our products will be sold through there. This may not happen at the beginning of August but I will make the announcement when ArtFire is no more.
• PALETTES! That's right.. we will be selling palettes! They will be limited edition & will be released sometime in late August.
• Memberships? Quite possibly. This is something I'm still debating. If you sign up for the membership, all previous purchases will go towards your membership point system. This is NOT in conjunction with the birthday club. They are 2 separate entities. However, I am still unsure about doing this. 

That is all I can remember for now. Hope everyone is just as excited as I am. Also! Don't forget the referral contest. For every referral, you get 1 ticket entry into winning a full size "Kiss Me Goodnight" eyeshadow & full size "Concrete" eye primer.

Kiss Me Goodnight Eyeshadow

In order to pick the winner I will use random.org to go from 1 to however many entries there are & who ever has the winning number will win. :D Contest ends the 23rd of July at midnight CST. Happy referring!

Sidenote: Until August 1, take 40% off your entire order using code: LASTCHANCE
