If you’re overdue for a stock-up on your favourite beauty and skincare products, or in the mood to treat yourself (as you should!), Sephora’s latest shopping event is here to spread some early holiday cheer. The can’t-miss beauty sale of the year, Sephora’s Holiday Savings Event, is on now (ending Nov. 9) and it’s a great time to get ahead on your Christmas shopping. While you’re at it, why not pick up a few new items to add to your routine?

The biggest cosmetics brands, including Tarte, Yves Saint Laurent, Benefit and celeb-fronted lines Rare Beauty and Fenty Beauty, are taking part and giving Beauty Insiders up to 20% off their products! Rouge members currently have first access, with VIB members having a chance to shop 15% off sitewide* starting Nov. 3. Insider members will still have five full days to score 10% off as of Nov. 5.

I shout out my latest beauty and skincare finds almost every month in my Favourites lists, but this is definitely the time to splurge — especially with these great savings. Not sure where to start? Snag beauty shelf inspiration from my Sephora wish list, organized to the max for all of your skincare and makeup needs!

Skincare and Face Masks

As featured on my September Favourites list, this is the perfect product to combat stubborn maskne!

To say the month of March has felt like a never-ending series of curveballs would be a significant understatement. I hope you’re staying healthy, enjoying everything our fave streaming services have to offer and perhaps discovering a new hobby or two! Mine is apparently baking cakes with my mom. 🍰

The extra at-home time is also giving us all more opportunities for closet cleaning, skincare and adding to our playlists and watch lists. Steal some inspo from this month’s Favourites list below.

Fashion

* Patterned Cropped Jackets *

SIMILAR: Free People, $495 // Princess Polly, $37 *sale* // Princess Polly, $31 *sale* (exact from American Eagle, sold out)

Now that I’ve finally found my new go-to basic white tees from Topshop and Zara, I’m loving cute cropped jackets, especially in a fun style like a cheetah or military print. They’re perfect for spring and you can easily dress them up or down with perfectly-paired accessories and solid colours.

*** Shopping Local ***

Major props to all the retailers I shop with who made the difficult but necessary decision to help flatten the curve and closed their doors early on. Now more than ever, it’s important to support small, local businesses and ensure they can get back on their feet as quickly as possible once this is all over.

Stay tuned for my separate post to get started with six of my personal faves!

Beauty/Skincare

Let’s talk WORK FROM HOME GLAM! My skin is majorly thanking me for the toned-down day-to-day makeup routine. My essentials have become a brow pencil, eyeshadow, light swipe of mascara and a tinted primer.
