Just a couple sales worth mentioning...

1 - Sephora has an extra 20% off of sale items, and it is worth browsing over. I picked up ClickR Stop-Time Night Cream, which I have never used before, and I also purchased for the second time the Diamond Dust Skin Polisher - it is a serum that polishes skin, refines pores, and controls moisture (but I am not oily, still helps my skin), and I have been using for quite some time now.  I also use their Pearl Wash, which I absolutely love, and the Vanishing Mist, which has been very effective for me in controlling my problems with acne and pores. ClickR's products are, as they say, "naturally pure" and vegan. 
It looks as though Sephora is no longer going to carry their products, which I'm disappointed about because
the reviews on their products are fantastic and the products are great. I hope they continue to sell and be successful. Anyways, both of the items I bought were $17.00 (originally $36 and $38), plus the additional 20% off.

2 - Laura Mercier is running 20% off of everything. I wish I needed something, ha ha, but I certainly do not. The next foundation on my list is Silk Crรจme, which is at the top of the highest rated foundations on the market and in the blogs and amongst the YouTube beauty vloggers. (But it will be a while since I just got Tarte's 12-hour Amazonian Clay foundation, and I use both fair and light, so it will be a while before I need foundation.). This is a wonderful opportunity, Laura Mercier is absolutely one of the greatest, most worthwhile,- and with that- the most expensive cosmetic lines, so discounts are always the best time to buy. 

3 - Anthro has 30% off of all sale items. Absolutely worth the browse to see if there is anything you might want. Enough said.

4 - J.Crew has an additional 25% off of sale items.

5 - L'occitane has some really, really good stuff on sale. I have been wanting the Almond Shower Oil, and they doubled the size for $10 more. I did have to go ahead and get this - I couldn't pass up the opportunity. AND they had the Almond Tonic Body Oil for half off, but it was already sold out, and I am SO, SO disappointed. But I also know that sales happen all the time, and it won't be the last time. So, I will get it at some point, and it's at the top of my list of things, but I certainly don't HAVE to have it by any means.

That's all I have for you tonight. Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas Day and continues to have a blessed Christmas season (Christmas continues through Jan. 5).

Tarte, Ulta, Drugstore.com

Hey, peeps! Just saw some great deals going on!
 
My most recent but now most favorite makeup brand ever, Tarte, is doing their friends and family sale & everything is 30% off through Thursday 12/13! I love their 12-hour full coverage foundation! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE their 12-hour blushes, especially in Natural Beauty and Exposed, and I love their LipSurgence lip tint and the matte lip tint (best matte lip product I've used - Fiery looks amazing, every time I wear it or Exposed (yes, same name as the blush, but I like that because a) I like to match and b) it makes it easy that many things have the same name), I get TONS of compliments! Fiery is the perfect red matte lip!

Drugstore.com has 20% off all beauty products, and they have way more than just typical "drugstore" cosmetics. They have great skincare brands - including my favorite, LaRoche-Posay. They also have 100% Pure, dermalogica, Kinerase, and great hair products like PHYTO and Kerastase! And I don't buy stuff like that unless I can get a great discount! They also have Love & Toast, which has some of the greatest fragrances, and my absolute favorite is Juniper Gin.

And Ulta has 20% off of your entire purchase! They have most things that Sephora does, plus, they have "drugstore cosmetics," but they don't have as great of a "rewards" program and don't have as great value sets as Sephora, but they do more discounts more often than Sephora.
