AM Inbox: Goodbye, Gloss

RetailEmail.Blogspot monitors the email marketing campaigns of more than 100 of the top online retailers. Here are highlights from our inbox this morning:

Gloss, 6/13 — A Special Announcement from Your Friends at Gloss
Gloss is bowing out of the online beauty business, informing its subscribers of its decision to close down in this email. Its last day of operations will be June 30. While its emails lately have been unremarkable (which is understandable), they’ve had some interesting emails, especially around Christmas and Valentine’s Day. They’re worth checking out if you missed them. Read all Gloss-tagged posts.
