Surprise! You Can Get Up to $25 Off Your Sephora Purchase Right Now
'Tis the season for all things shopping, sales, and seasonal stress. But, thanks to some of our favorite beauty retailers like Sephora, we're able to capitalize on the two formers while soothing the latter. Yep, just when you thought all of the best beauty deals were behind us thanks to the dizzying flurry of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Sephora announced its Holiday Hooray event for VIB members, a welcome surprise for those of us with lots of unchecked boxes on our holiday shopping lists for loved ones, and, let's be honest, our personal wish lists as well.
Here's what you need to know before you start shopping: Sephora's Rouge members receive $25 off, VIB members receive $20 off, and Beauty Insiders receive $15 off a purchase of $75 or more. (And yes, this applies to both in-store and online shopping, but really, why leave your bed and cup of steaming cocoa?) Keep scrolling for every single beauty must-have we recommend stockpiling before they sell out, and then use code 2019HOORAY (one-time use only!) at checkout to reap some well-deserved savings. Happy shopping!
Beauty Supplements
The Immunity Must
Pop two of these gummies daily—trust us, they're the tastiest way to be the only one who doesn't get sick at the office this holiday season.
The Beauty Sleep Essential
A consistently bright and glowy complexion (and the sanity of your loved ones) relies on you getting lots and lots of beauty sleep this season despite how busy this time of year is. Hum's newest supplements are strategically laced with valerian root and passionflower to make sure you fall asleep in seconds while gifting your face with all kinds of overnight skin-renewing goodies like ceramides, CoQ10, and ferulic acid.
The Mood Soother
This new Magnesium powder from Moon Juice is the brand's newest It product. It tastes delicious (like berry, but not too sweet) and does a little bit of everything—from calming irritability, fatigue, and muscle aches to keeping you, um, regular. Mix one teaspoon with water every night for the best results.
The Anywhere Green Juice
Brand new from Algenist, this superfood-packed powder basically allows you to turn a glass of water into the ultimate green juice (think chlorella microalgae, chlorophyll, and a pro-collagen blend) anytime, anywhere.
The Gut MVP
In case your digestive system has been acting up as often as ours the past few weeks, this new berry- and mint-flavored powder from The Beauty Chef is here to save the day. Oh, and your gut won't be the only thing to benefit, it's also designed to help boost immunity, and the health and resilience of our nails, skin, and hair.
The Smoothie Perfector
The key to concocting the perfect beautifying smoothie? Sakara's all-in-one plant-based protein powder that offers a glow-boosting dose of organic greens alongside phytoceramides—a unique vegan alternative to collagen.
The Chicest Multivitamin
DL.MD's unique liquid supplement is the chicest alternative to popping your normal daily multivitamin. It has a tasty natural berry tang, only requires a one-teaspoon sip per day, and boasts a higher absorption rate to help improve the look and health of hair, skin, and nails with key hits of vitamin C, vitamin E, and biotin.
The *Healthier* Hot Chocolate
If you want to curl up with a cup of something cozy this season, may we recommend this turmeric and cacao-spiked beauty tonic? It's basically hot cocoa but naturally vegan, keto-friendly, and packed with antioxidants and superfoods. Mix it with your favorite liquid beverage for the yummiest way to de-stress.
Makeup
The Complexion Booster
Our latest product obsession at WWW HQ—Erborian's brilliant color-correcting primer. It features strategic violet pigments, licorice root extract, and centella asiatica to revive a lackluster, uneven, and dull complexion. It imparts a radiant, gorgeous finish our face seriously needs this winter.
The Only Foundation Worth Wearing
Honestly, Kevyn Aucoin's latest foundation innovation is God's gift to anyone struggling with redness or other irritating skin woes. It offers really great coverage but builds and blends naturally so you can get exactly what you need in terms of coverage. Plus, we love that it comes with a perfectly sized application brush.
The Best Concealer If You're Feeling Dry AF
You haven't known a truly magical concealer until you've tried this epic formula from Shiseido. It offers long-wearing yet wonderfully lightweight coverage we've been completely addicted to this season.
The Perfect Selfie in a Tube
Pat McGrath Labs's creamy new highlighter is the It product of the season if you're after a beam of photogenic iridescence on your face or eyes. Choose from Astral Blue Star, brilliant blue iridescence that's surprisingly flattering, or Pale Gold 002, a sparkling gold.
The Sweetest Shadow Palette
If you don't have Urban Decay's newest Naked palette, are you even a beauty lover? We can't stop wearing each and every color in the brand's newest honey-themed drop.
The X-Rated Mascara That's Better Than Falsies
If you don't have time for falsies or extensions, this triple X-rated mascara from Stila has you and your fluttery lash goals more than covered.
The Red Lippie
Yep, Gucci makes lipsticks now, and you one million percent need one to make your (or a loved one's) lip wardrobe complete this season. They're hydrating, sheer, and the perfect accent to any holiday outfit. That said, to keep things festive, we recommend the perfect burst of crimson—Goldie Red.
Skincare
The Multi-Tasking Cleanser and Mask
Here's a fun fact: Did you know Indie Lee's cult-loved brightening cleanser can also be used as a radiance-enhancing mask? Nab this limited-edition version while it's still available and your face will be forever grateful this season.
The Best Cleanser If You're Travleling
This is not a drill—Eve Lom now makes their best-selling and forever iconic cleansing oil in capsule-from. Brilliant, no?
The Smooth Skin Ritual
A high-quality exfoliating scrub is a must for keeping skin smooth, glowing, and healthy. Mario Badescu's comes in at a very satisfying price point and delivers on all of the above and then some. Use it one to two times per week.
The Must-Have Mist
Not only is this limited-edition rose gold packaging the absolute prettiest, but Omorovicza's much-loved face mist also features lovely ingredients like neroli and rose to soothe your nerves the second they start to spike this season.
The SPF That's Practically Invisible
Unseen is our secret for ensuring our makeup stays in place all day long while also protecting our face from damaging sun exposure—yes, even in the winter.
The Glow-On-the-Go Mask
Keep Charlotte Tilbury's travel-size clay mask on you at all times during jet-setting season and you'll never have to sacrifice the integrity of your pores.
Hair
The Extensions-In-a-Bottle Shampoo and Conditioner
Not only do this luxe shampoo and conditioner nix oil and build-p quickly and efficiently, but they also plump and lift lank strands to immediately elevate the look of your go-to style.
The Hair Treatment You Can Wear All Day on the DL
Brimming with coconut oil, shea butter, and argan oil, this leave-in hair balm is the cold-weather antidote for every hair woe regardless of your hair's type or texture. We love applying it before twisting our strands into a chic low chignon for a convenient, all-day hair treatment.
The Italian Dry Shampoo Everyone Is Obsessed With
This unique Italian-made vegan dry shampoo features avocado, keratin, and ginseng so that your hair not only looks freshly cleansed and voluminous but is actually getting healthier and stronger as the day (or night) wears on. Plus, it plays well for every single hair texture.
The Color-Depositing Hair Mask
So fun if you've been contemplating playing with a new hue, but don't want to make a permanent commitment. Oh, and it will also thoroughly heal ravaged strands thanks to nurturing ingredients like the brand's signature ArganID alongside a loving spoonful of amino acids and apricot kernel oil.
The Coolest Bobby Pins Ever Created
The epic collaboration between celebrity hairstylist Justine Marjan and Kitsch results in THE most-wanted hair accessories. All of which land front-center on our wish lists. We're eyeing the gold finish, in particular.

For special occasions or days when she's taking more meetings or has an event, she'll wear anything and everything from Charlotte Tilbury (the foundations are game-changing), some shimmer on her lids (Stila and Róen do it best), and a few coats of the best mascara-type product on earth, Surratt's Noir Lash Tint.
