beautybonusLeave a comment

Update: This has ended. There is a nice Shiseido gift with purchase at Macy’s. Purchase any two Shiseido treatment products and receive a pretty gift that includes minis of cleanser, softener, and moisturizer, plus a targeted specialty sample in a pink cosmetic bag. You may choose one of four free gifts: The Skincare, White Lucent, Benefiance, or Bio-Performance. Plus if you purchase a Shiseido foundation you will receive two additional freebies: A Perfect Rouge deluxe replica sample in RD514 Dragon and a travel size of The Skincare Instant Eye and Lip Makeup Remover.

Shiseido GWP at Macy's

Macy’s also has several fragrance tote bag gifts right now from many brands, plus a five piece Lancome deluxe sample gift with any $50 Lancome purchase (and you’ll also get free shipping). If you haven’t purchased your Clinique bonus yet at Macy’s, this is the final weekend it will be available (and Friday and Saturday only, they are including an extra 15 ml deluxe sample of Turnaround Concentrate). There is also a cute pink Dior mirror as your gift when you purchase Dior Ultragloss Reflect in Pink Layette or Dior Vernis Nail Color in Pink Dahlia.

But if you are looking for a Clinique bonus and the Macy’s offering doesn’t tickle your fancy, you may want to wait until Monday when Clinique.com will begin their exclusive online Bonus Time. I don’t have specific details yet but I know it is a seven piece gift with any $21.50 purchase. You will be able to choose from three skincare options and some new fall makeup, and there’s a step-up free deluxe cosmetic bag plus free shipping with $45 purchase.

Shu Uemura is offering a limited number of these Best of Shu Uemura value sets, available only while supplies last. This kit is a $66 value and you can purchase it for only $42 and it includes:

  • Eyelash Curler

  • Mini Gloss Unlimited in shade WN 283 S (a wine shade)
  • Cleansing Beauty Oil Premium A/O

Shu Uemura Best of Shu Uemura set

Shu Uemura also has some very cute holiday items. Of the several offerings my favorites are this palette which I think is just adorable, the Tsumori Chisato Limited Edition Cat Couture Palette (there is a Ribbon Palette too with different colors, they are $65 each) and this Tsumori Chisato Limited Edition Compact Mirror with pouch ($15).

Shu Uemura Tsumori Chisato Limited Edition items

I looked around and found two Shu Uemura coupons (see below) for free shipping plus samples, depending on how much you are spending, plus you can choose an additional sample at checkout. Many of the holiday gift items are also available at Sephora (friends and family sale running now, 20% off with code FF2009) and Nordstrom and I’m sure other department stores.

SkinCareRx is running a Fall Sale through November 8.

If you’ve been waiting to buy a Clarisonic they are included in the sale ($156 with the coupon, $119.20 for the Mia) and SkinCareRx only charges sales tax on orders that ship to Utah (unlike Sephora; in my case that’s an almost $13 difference for the full size unit) and shipping is free when you spend over $49.

The Bloomingdale’s Beauty Benefits event is still running (free silver tote with $125 beauty purchase), they have many gifts with purchase including a nice Lancome one, and they’ve added a new Laura Mercier gift. With any $85 Laura Mercier purchase you’ll receive this free bonus: Full-size Wheat Eye Basic, Mini Tea Rose Lip Colour, Mini Radiance Tinted Moisturizer, Mini Flawless Skin Eye Cream, and an Exclusive Laura Mercier Bronze Cosmetic Bag.
