A Beauty Editor's Top 10 Picks for the Sephora Holiday Savings Event
Early Black Friday deals have already hit.
With the arrival of November (what? how?!), the sale season is officially in full swing. Although Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals are still a few weeks away, I’m happy to report that there are plenty of opportunities to save a little money, especially when it comes to your beauty routine. My eyes are all over the Sephora Holiday Savings Event, especially now that I’ve fully switched my hair and skincare routines over for fall. That means more moisture, more barrier repair, and more nourishing formulas from head to toe. And if I’m going to shell out for a fresh product lineup, it might as well all be on sale, right? 100 percent!
We still have just over a week to shop the sale, which runs until November 9 and offers up to 20 percent off for Rouge, VIB, and Beauty Insiders (which is honestly just creating an account with Sephora so you can also snag discounted shipping). The latter two tiers are able to shop on November 3–just remember to use promo code ALLONSALE at checkout. Here’s everything I’m adding to my cart before the Sephora Holiday Savings Event ends.
Mega Moisture
I’m switching out my lightweight and gel summer moisturizers for richer, more nourishing options, lest my skin become dry and cracked throughout the day. Not on my watch!
Molly Simms nailed it with this new peptide-rich formula. It leaves my skin so soothed and glowy, but never greasy.
This is one of my favorite under-the-radar skincare brands, and the new rich cream is 100 percent worth the shelf space.
Feeling Balmy
My collection of lip balms is a thing of beauty at this point in my life, so what better time to stock up on some of my favorite formulas in a few new shades?
Yes, this viral formula is the real deal, and I think I’ve snagged every color available. Time to restock for seriously cushion-y lips this winter!
Senior Beauty Editor Sam Holender just tested this new color, and I can attest her rave review is spot on.
Frizz Fighters
While humidity is a killer in the summer, my wavy hair tends to get the most frizzy when the air is dry and cool. Enter, frizz-fighting styling creams to the rescue.
I’ve used my first tube of this lightweight cream down to the last drop, and I absolutely must restock. It’s impossible to use wrong, and it helps tame my waves without looking or feeling crunchy.
The celebrity stylist has perfected the styling cream for that done-but-undone hairstyle every cool girl is wearing for fall.
Head-to-Toe Hydration
There’s no way I’m letting fall and winter weather turn my body into lizard skin. I fight back starting in the shower with a hydrating body wash.
With a seal from the National Eczema Association, this pH-balanced body cleanser is a no-brainer to keep your skin soothed and supple this winter.
Not only does CYKLAR make the best-smelling body products out there right now, this oil-infused formula leaves your skin feeling ridiculously soft and supple.
Lovely Leave-Ins
Anyone with color-treated or textured hair already knows a leave-in conditioner is non-negotiable, but any and all hair types can use a boost of moisture in the cool months.
This luxe lightweight formula is ideal for thin and fine hair types to add hydration and nourishment for up to 72 hours.
A longtime staple in my wavy hair routine, this formula is a must to keep split ends and breakage at bay.
