16-Year-Old Helps Shoe Website Go Viral; Makes Us Want To Barf

Juicystar07, a self-proclaimed “makeup guru” on Youtube, has got it made.

This sixteen year old chick has been reviewing makeup and fashion (and scoring plenty of freebies) for a while now; two weeks ago she posted a video for Shoes of Prey (which sent her payment for the vid) and traffic for the startup went through the roof.

One of the founders, writing about the experience on his company’s blog, said:

We’ve now had over 700,000 visits to the Shoes of Prey website, and 500,000 of those came last week!!! Our previous best day of traffic was 17,092 visits during the week that both Springwise and TechCrunch covered us.
