It's cold, snowy, and downright atrocious here in New York--but that doesn't mean you can't take advantage of the after-Christmas sales! Check out the latest beauty steals and deals:
LUSH:
It's buy one, get one (of equal or lesser value) FREE on their holiday gifts! You can't beat free, can you? They don't have much left in the holiday section, but what they do have is scrumptious. My picks: Bon Bon lip scrub (tastes like flavored sugar, probably *is* flavored sugar--and after you're done exfoliating, you can lick it right off your lips!) and cheerful-smelling Snow Globe soap.
(Note: If you're stuck in Manhattan with a good pair of boots and a gift card burning a hole in your pocket, I recommend you pay the Herald Square Lush a visit. Those Lush ladies are incredibly friendly and are amazingly knowledgeable about the products they sell!)
Keep your eye on this sale, as they seem to be sneaking more stuff into it each day! With savings of up to 40% off, this sale is a can't-miss event. There are holiday gift sets on sale--autumn-themed ones like Bobbing For Apples (now $20, down from $25), sets to keep you warm in the winter like the Warm & Toasty set (featuring hazelnut espresso, hot buttered rum, and double-rich hot cocoa 3-in-1s, all for $20), and Christmasy ones like the Candy Cane Lane set (3-in-1, lip gloss, and lotion, just $18).
Speaking of candy canes...this product seemingly materialized out of nowhere and landed on the sale page: the Candy Cane body scrub! Philosophy's scrubs are amazing--they exfoliate well without being too harsh, and they always smell delicious. Guess who picked up two of these (on sale for $18 each, down from $25)? ;)
And for the Amazing Grace fans out there, the bar soap is now at an unbeatable price: $5 instead of the usual $9.
Not only are they having a sale, but if you use code EXTRA you'll get an extra (get it?) 20% off all sale items! Some of the best values include:
* Fresh's Brown Sugar Social gift set ($75 value, originally priced at $50, now priced at $45). The set includes Fresh's scrumptious brown sugar body polish as well as perfume and body cream.
* So many colors, so little time--and for so little money! Stila's Color Wheel Eye Shadow Palette, originally priced at $38, is now $25. This baby includes 37 eyeshadow shades, so this palette can be yours for less than a buck per shade!
* Tarina Tarantino's Jewel Box Palette is also a pretty amazing value. Valued at a whopping $299 and originally priced at $78, this collection is on sale for a mere $39 now. Primer, mascara, gloss, shadows...all in a gorgeous jewelry box! For those who are turned off by Tarina Tarantino's prices but are still curious about her products, this is a great opportunity to try a bunch of her products for not much money at all.
* And if you're an Urban Decay girl, two great deals await: There's the Show Pony Shadow Box (originally $30, now $20) as well as the Beauty in a Box set, which includes 2 24/7 glide-on eye pencils, Sin primer potion (amazing stuff!), 2 Heavy Metal glitter eyeliners, and it's the only place you can find their Luminous Loose Eyeshadow in Gypsy, which is a darker golden shade. Valued at $91, originally priced at $52...now this set can be yours for just $39.
Happy shopping, everyone!
