London-based beauty outlet Space.NK Apothecary is hosting a sale on skincare. Discontinued and current beauty brands are 50 percent off. After checking out the Barbara Bui sale, I thought I’d drop into the store on Greene Street in Soho. It was bustling with mostly women but a few men examining the goods.
I went to this sale last winter when they were practically giving the products away. The discounts aren’t as deep as they were back then but there are still deals to be had. You’ll find face creams, lotions, makeup of all sorts by Sonia Kashuk (eye shadow, blush, lipstick, concealer and more going for $2). Gift sets are under $20. Many of the items on sale are products from Europe (France & Italy) – unfamiliar brands for most Americans. Last time, I picked up the INA Crystals White Gold Radiant skin tonic for $6 (was $48). This time they had the tonic for $12 and face creams for $15. I also found a few things by the organic skin care product, Jurlique (made in Australia). This product is used by a few spas in New York City, including Great Jones Spa in Noho. Makeup brushes are also half off – a blush brush that retailed for $24 is now $12 and an eye shadow brush is now $12 (was $24).
Where/When: 99 Greene St., nr Prince St. (212-941-4200); July 29 to 31; Th (8–8), F–S (10–7).

Be careful. A lot of the same items were at their last sale so I checked the experation dates on the back and some items were about to EXPIRE. 8/10.
Thanks, Deme for the tip…
