The Sephora Savings Event for Holiday 2024 begins this week for Rouge Members! Use code SAVINGS at sephora.com if you’re Rouge and enjoy 20% off your total starting November 1st and 30% off the Sephora Collection.
It feels like the Holiday Sales get here faster and faster ever year but I guess last year it was even soon as it happened more towards the end of October where as this year they at least waited until November 1st. Even Ulta is already dropping Black Friday deals! It feels WAY too early but I guess it really isn’t and it’s just me wanting to prevent Fall from ending.
Sephora has pretty much dropped all the Holiday Gift Sets at this point but I know a few brands will likely sneak in surprise drops through the month of November. Sadly, those beauty drops may not coincide with the sale but I’m not too worried about that as there’s always another sale around the corner from the brand directly or somewhere else that we might be able to grab that new launched palette or gift set. As I said above the sale starts for Sephora Rouge on November 1st until November 11th. As for VIBs and BIs it’ll start November 5th through November 11th as well using the same promo code and you’ll get 15% or 10% off. Honestly, if you can’t wait for that deal just head over to nordstrom.com today and enjoy 15% off beauty with free shipping or macys.com and use code FRIEND for 15% off beauty.
If you want to know how to shop the Sephora Holiday Savings Event like a pro here are a few tips and tricks to remember when shopping.
Tip #1 pay attention to the sales and watch where you money is going. I noticed last year that after Black Friday and Cyber Monday the deals and seems seemed a lot less. I also, noticed this for Labor Day, Memorial Day, and even Columbus Day. Sales just didn’t seem as plentiful as they normally are. I think late shoppers will be paying a lot more for gifts if they don’t pay attention to the sales this year. If you see 20-30% off take advantage of that sale as you likely won’t see it happen again after Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Also, watch where you’re spending your money! If you’re VIB/BI you’ll likely get a deeper discount from brands like Tarte, Urban Decay, and other mid-range brands as 10-15% isn’t as good a deal as 20-30% off from these brands directly.
Tip #2 and the most important tip of all is shop the sale during the sale. Remember that sephora.com has a slew of items that are on sale already and your code can get you an even bigger discount on some of those items! For example, there are tons of Pat Mcgrath items on sale currently plus add in 20/15/ or 10% more off and they become an even great deal! And don’t forget hit up kohls.com as their sales section is rocking!
Tip #3 Fill your cart. Fill it with all your wish list items! Put 5 million dollars worth of makeup in there! Make the most biggest, craziest cart ever! Leave it. You’re obviously not going to check out but it sure is fun to look at. I’ve found if I stack my cart full of items by the next day I’ll remove about 75% of those items. It’s the easiest way to save money. I normally do my cart the day of the sale and I wait like two or three days before checking out. I look at the cart in more critical way once the frenzy of the first day of the sale ends.
Tip #4 OMG the item you wanted sold out now what? Don’t worry it’s either a great thing as it saved you money or if you absolutely have to have it give it time it’ll likely restock towards the end of the sale OR check kohls.com where it likely will be in stock and yes, it’ll be on sale as the code works there too!
Tip #5 What if I forgot to add something to my cart but I checked out already? That’s fine! Don’t panic! You can still get it! The sale is almost two weeks long for Rouge Members and it’s almost a week for VIB and BI which gives you plenty of time to use the code as you can use it more than once!
Tip #6 and most important is don’t overdue it. If you don’t have the money to shop don’t shop. There is absolutely no piece of makeup or beauty you need if it means it’ll be putting you in debt well after the Holiday season is over. Remember, Spring 2025 Beauty is on the horizon and they’ll be something bigger, better, and more exciting to haul! Don’t go too crazy and spend money you may not have. Not to mention we still have Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Boxing Sales coming up. Just be aware if what you’re spending and how much you’re spending.
Good Luck and have fun!
