Brace yourselves, y'all.  ...I'm back!  We'll talk about that more this week!  But the real news: The Sephora VIB Rouge sale has already begun and ends Monday, 11/17 at 11:59 PM PT.  If you're VIB Rouge like myself, you might wear this "badge of honor" with a little shame.  I can't help but think "DAMN, I really spent that much at Sephora?!".  If you're not Rouge, don't sweat.  All VIB members will be able to shop the sale November 11th-14th.

ROUGE CODE: 20ROUGE
VIB CODE: 20VIB

Pro tip: Sign up for Ebates if you haven't already and earn 4% off your entire purchase at Sephora!  There's a million other retailers on here too -- You'll thank me later.  Just make sure to go through Ebates before you start shopping online!
This is the perfect time to buy yourself that one thing that's been on your wish list forever, holiday gifts, and birthday presents.  I've been eyeing the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation for months but wouldn't let myself give in until I cleaned out my makeup junkyard.  I finally purchased it in shade 5 and will update you all!  I also got a Laura Mercier Bronzer, an HG of mine.

If you're looking for some gift ideas and want to snag them at 20% off, I gotchu.  To me, the sale is the perfect time to stock up on any staples or higher-end items that you've been putting off.

Here are a few of my top picks:
