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

we're at it again!

So just what have we been up to since the move?!

Well, for those who bought the NBC collection, you have all ready sampled what we've been doing. (:  But for those of you who don't know:
solid lotion bars!
Right now they're only available in sample form until I test how they'll do in a larger container. Samples come in a 2x2x2 square with either 1 of the 4 we have premade or you can make your own. (: To design your own solid lotion bar for $2 {+ shipping}, visit the store {here} & make sure in the "notes to seller" you specify which you would like.

The four premades we have available now are:
"Barrel" {red rose, thyme, & vanilla scent}
"Let's Eat Cake" {birthday cake scent}
"Lock" {cucumber melon scent}
"Shock" {tropical temptation scent}

A list of all available scents is: here.

We have also been reviewed again! Check it out: Glitterbity: Review of Lucky 107

We are also now offering "review kits". (: Within the United States gets free shipping while international has to pay standard price {sorry! it's just so expensive to ship overseas}. Click here for all you up & coming reviewers & click here for you more experienced review gurus. (:

On top of releasing the solid lotion bars, we have reformulated "Concrete". It has now more reader friendly ingredients, & more adhesion power. 
old formula:
Avobenzone, Octinoxate, Water, Glycerin, Petrolatum, Stearic Acid, Glycol Stearate, Dimethicone, Isopropyl Isostearate, Tapicoa Starch, Cetyl Alcohol, Glyceryl Stearate, Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, Carborner, Ethylene Brassylate, Triethanolamine, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, & Titanium Dioxide
new formula:
Water, emulsifying wax, sweet almond oil, mica, titanium dioxide, iron (iii) oxide, & preservative cap 5

i'm hoping to start rolling out some new colors later this week. (: so yes, we have been busy bees. :D

What have we been up to?!

Well, we reopened later than we had hoped but it was a success! Our 35% off the entire store for one week went off without a hitch! Thank you to everyone who supported us. (:  Now it's back to our regular scheduled programming... with a few new additions.

First off, we are starting a new program [well, new to us!] called Color of the Week [or cotw]. What this little number does is take a fan voted color [see our cotw album on the fan page, here, & click the "like" button underneath your favorite color. voting for the week ends june 12 - winning color announce june 13th] & puts it on sale from Monday to Sunday for just $2! yep, a full size jar for just $2!! The color selection to be voted on changes each week, so be on the look out.

Second, we have created our own Lucky 107 exclusive t-shirt!
Design by Yanelis C.
You can buy it from our ArtFire store for $20 + shipping [click here to be taken directly to the shirt]; any size! It will be printed on a plain white t-shirt. When purchasing, please put your preferred size in the "notes to seller" section.

Once I get my scale in [the one I had broke so I had to order another one], be on the look out for whipped sugar body scrubs! That's right, a new & improved version of our old sugar scrubs! Looking to see if we carry your favorite fragrance so you can get your hands on one of these? Go here to see what fragrances we carry. Looking for a certain fragrance & we don't seem to carry it? Email me at lucky107cosmetics@gmail.com & ask if we can get your scent in. (:

To those ladies awaiting birthday packages for April & May: the move messed things up big time here at the shop, so I will get these out ASAP. Is your birthday in June? Email me the following application to lucky107cosmetics@gmail.com
+ Name:
+ Birthday:
+ Address:
+ Eye Color:
+ Favorite Color:
+ Allergies
+ Vegetarian/Vegan:

Why am I asking if you're vegetarian or vegan? To ensure you do not receive a product that contains animal by products - like beeswax & carmine.

That's all for now, my lovely Ladies of Luck. Keep your eyes peeled for future updates.
