I kinda wish Angela looked into perfecting her formula and putting her products in ulta or sephora, she's been selling cosmetics for a long ass time. Longer than most celebs or influencers.

She might as well give them away as gifts. That's less embarrassing than advertising your merchandise for a penny.

Amazed at the number of people who dont know marketing tricks.

LOSS LEADER..... look it up.
This is what the God is Dope tshirt brand does a lot. I get a text about a free tshirt at least once a month. It gets you to the site and that’s a huge part of the game. You just have to be prepared for the shipping to be a few more dollars than usual because that’s where they try to get a little bit of profit. If I had a large brand and could afford to do something like that to get people on my site, I would.

I just went and ordered something. S/h was $12.99 plus four items= $13.03. I'm not mad about it. I would pay more than that for the same from ColorPop and Beauty Bakery is like $25 a tube.

So true.

Also, this could stop her from getting future sponsorships because this shows that she doesn’t have enough power to sway her consumer base to buy products.

If she did she would have to discount it so low and “hide” her profit by inflating the shipping cost.

So the price of shipping went up based on amount of products chosen. My final cost was $45. Corny.

Selling your cosmetics at Ulta/Sephora is expensive and they take a chunk of your earnings. It's not worth it for every brand.

That’s because the price of shipping is the actual cost of the gloss, not the $0.01. It’s the same thing cheap Chinese websites like Alibaba do. That’s probably where she gets them from.

I'll spend $20 on anything just about. I have no idea if its good or bad. Im willing to risk it for less than what I spent on dinner (pizza) for myself tonight. And I'm the type to grab several bottles of cute nail polish at the cash register whenever I stop by the beauty supply.

Hey I'm not versed in the Black Chyna drama... what did she do and why don't we like her?

Also shipping was only $5 so I bought myself a few glosses. If nothing else my sister can enjoy them too.

And selling it there doesn't automatically mean it's going to be successful. Brands fail every day. It doesn't matter what store, street, whatever it's sold at.

Yea but they’re charging like $25 for shipping.

It's an excellent tactic people in info-marketing have been doing for 3 to 5 years now. She's finally on the act. IT works well. The goal is to break even and gather as many customers as possible and upsell them other products through the sales page and email them other deals going forward. I wonder if she had smart team behind the company that knows marketing.

They'll probably cancel all the orders. Then they won't sell any of those things because the majority of folks ain't gonna pay $59.99 shipping.

I put some glosses in my cart because why not, they're a penny each. Shipping is $12.99 for 4 glosses. Now it's giving me the option to leave a tip...? I've never seen anything like this on a cosmetics site.

edit: I tried to add another gloss to make it 5 and shipping jumped to 22.99!

She didn't do anything wrong. She went through a hard time right after he ex leaked her nudes, sometimes when you hear enough negativity, it becomes a self fullfilling prophesy. Her ex trying to shame and dehumanize her by insulting her body parts and posting images of her naked and recovering from surgery, and people accepted this yt man doing that and dehumanized her right along with him. She had a rough childhood and an abusive mother. She's matured, she's trying to stay positive now and actually do things worthwhile like make music.

My order came! Everything is packaged nicely. I swatched all the colors on my hand. They are pretty. I'm happy with my purchase.

My order came today as well. They're very pigmented more like...glossy liquid lipsticks. They seem long lasting. I'll have to put some clear gloss on top, but I'm not mad at them.

My order came Thursday. Love the pink packaging. So far the glosses seem nice. I've swatched them and they seem to last long. I got four.
