Discount Alert: Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner Pencils

Alert: The discontinued shades for Urban Decay's 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencils are now discounted by 50%, from US$19.00 to $9.50, here on the brand's site.

Note that they did take down the free-shipping-on-$35 and deluxe-samples-on-$50 promotion that they were running just a few days before. However, they do still have stock of some of the good sale items that they had before, and also added Urban Defense. (I have two different shades of Urban Defense in the old packaging; I liked it, and would definitely recommend it over their BB cream.)

Also, if you need help moving on from the discontinuation of one of your favourite liners, see my list of (cheaper!) dupes here.

Black Friday/Cyber Monday 2012 Sales

Quick post here.
Lots of sales going on this weekend--including from various indie cosmetics sellers who don't run promotions often.

I've spent the last couple hours spending a considerable amount of money--enough to make my ramen-filled lifestyle seem vain--at indie companies Geek Chic Cosmetics and Shiro Cosmetics; as well as at Iron Fist Clothing. I'll do swatches once I receive each shipment, assuming my mail doesn't get stolen again...

Here's a list of some of the sales I like:

Make-Up

• Cherry Culture: 20% off - code TKGS20. Valid through Sunday. Sales from them aren't uncommon, but they're a good place to stock up from.
• Beautycrunch: Spend $50+, get 20% off + free Stila Sexy Eye Kit - code BLACKFRIDAY. Valid through Sudnay.
• Missha: 40% off. No code, prices pre-applied. Valid through Monday.
• Shiro Cosmetics: 15% off - code CAGEAPPROVED (source). Valid through Monday the 26th.
  Also, all fullsized shadows from their Portal-themed Science Collection are on clearance for 20% off, or $4.00 per jar.
• Geek Chic Cosmetics: 30% off + free mystery extra item. No code, prices pre-applied. Their site was slow early this morning.
• Coastal Scents: 50% off; no code, prices pre-applied. Sale through Monday.
• e.l.f.: BOGO (buy one, get one) 50% off + free shipping - code BLKFRI. Today only.
• NYX: Nothing for Black Friday, but there will be a sale for Cyber Monday. Check back later.
• Makeup Academy: If you missed the 35%-off sale, then items are now 3 for 2 for over a week.
• CVS: 25% off + free shipping online. There are also various in-store deals through Saturday, including $4 ExtraBucks rewards on Revlon Lip Butters.

Nouveau Cheap also has a list of deals, mostly online.

Clothing

• Forever 21: Additional 50% off sale items - code EXTRA50. Through Sunday.
• Threadless: T-shirts $10, hoodies $30. Ends Monday.
• Iron Fist Clothing: 50% off - code BLKFRI. Valid today only.
• 5.11: 10% off - code BLACKFRIDAY10.

Other

• Steam: Autumn Sale, lots of stuff. Currently, Max Payne 3 for $15 (75% off) and Sleeping Dogs 50% off. (I no longer buy games unless they're $5 or under, but these are still tempting.)
• SureFire: 25% off + free shipping. Monday only. (This is the first time they've done a post-Thanksgiving sale!)
• Newegg: Various discounts.
• NameCheap: Various rotating discounts on domain services, through Monday.

You can also Google for sales yourself.

Enjoy your shopping, but don't forget to save a little for the next round of holidays, unless you plan on becoming a hermit between now and then.
