First things first: Don’t forget about cash back!
Whether you’re shopping in the US or Canada, make sure to sign up for a cash back program before shopping — they’ll send you x% of the value of your order back to you in the form of a cheque, which is just like getting that much extra off of your sale prices! Sign up for Ebates in the US or Ebates.ca in Canada for…
- US: 10% cash back at Lancôme, 8% cash back at Ulta, Bloomingdale’s, The Body Shop, and Sephora; 6% cash back at Nordstrom and Bobbi Brown.
- Canada: A whopping 20% cash back at Shop.ca, 8% cash back at Bobbi Brown, 7.5% cash back at Marcelle, 7% cash back at Clinique, 6% cash back at The Body Shop and Paula’s Choice, 5% cash back at NARS, Lancôme, and Clarins, and 4% cash back at Sephora and Shu Uemura.

From The Body Shop: Deals Galore
No one does holiday sales like The Body Shop, so from the 28th until the 30th, almost everything is 3 for $33, 4 for $44, and 5 for $55 and their special Black Friday Tote Bag is $30 ($125 value) with orders over $30. I will update this post on Monday to let you know about their fantastic Cyber Monday sale, too!
For Cyber Monday, The Body Shop is doing 50% off site-wide, plus free shipping over $40 CAD! Sale starts at 6:30 am ET.

My favourites from the brand: Honestly, I haven’t tried a lot from their current line. I love their Satsuma fragrance, though, (who doesn’t?) and am really curious about their Vitamin E Serum-In-Oil! Along with the serum, their hair butters and new Body Sorbets are notably silicone-free.
From Clarins: Pick Your Pretty (gift set)
Get free shipping and one of four 5-piece gift sets with any order over $75, plus get 3 free samples (you should see Clarins’ sample section; it covers almost all of their skincare and fragrance products). I recommend the EARLY set, which includes a travel-sized tube of their Beauty Flash Balm — apparently it’s silicone-free, but I still haven’t gotten around to trying it!
{ Shop the sale here }
My favourites from the brand: Vital Light Day moisturizer (‘cone-free; best for normal skin), Ombre Minérale 4 Couleurs quads, and any of their lipsticks! Their Hydra Quench Serum is also amazing for extremely dehydrated skin (but it’s not as much of a knockout for dry skin).
From MIYU Beauty: Buy One Get One
From 8 AM EST on November 28th to 11:59 PM EST on December 1st, buy one full-sized Beauty Essence and get a second one free. Use code MIYUblackfriday at checkout. (Plus, did you know that they do $15 minis of both their De-Stress Mi and Hydrate Mi Beauty Essences? They’re so tiny! And adorable!)
Free shipping to Canada & the US with orders over $65. { Shop the sale here. }
My favourites from the brand: MIYU Hydrate Mi Beauty Essence (rose)
From L’Occitane: Provencal Exclusives
Use code FRIDAY from the 28th to the 30th for free shipping on all orders over $49, plus get any of their Provencal gift sets for $15 each with purchases over $45. Or, get eight full-sized products in their Holiday gift box for $55 with any $45 purchase using the code BLACK — the set is free with any $225 purchase, but if you’re buying that much L’Occitane at once, I hope you’re at least buying as much La Collection de Grasse as you possibly can.
Also until the 28th, all stocking stuffers are buy 2 get 1 free. { Shop the sale here. }
My favourites from the brand: Frisson de Verveine for something fresh and bright, La Collection de Grasse Fleur d’Or et Acacia (probably my favourite L’Occitane product of them all!), Divine Youth Oil, and Immortelle Eye Gel/Mask duo.
