Do you need to stock up on hair care or skin care products? Are in need of a new nail color or eyeliner? This is your lucky week as all three big drugstore chains(including Walgreens, CVS/Pharmacy, and Rite Aid) have some some super stellar sales on your favorite brands. Since there are so many equally amazing deals to choose from, I’ve rounded up the best one for you in my weekly Drugstore Beauty Deal roundup.

Here are a few things to keep in mind. Many of these deals will require a savings card(like CVS and Rite Aid). Signing up for these cards are free and easy so if you haven’ already signed up for one, I’d suggest you do that now. Some of these deals will require a coupon and I will note that. The only way to obtain these is by having a copy of the insert and cut out the coupon from it. If you don’t have such ads, you can ask your friends for spare copies.

A makeup bag is an essential for any fashionista on the go. Ideally, it should be a cute little zip-top bag that’s made from an easy-to-clean material like plastic, and you should fill it up with the essentials. I personally like to keep my lips super-hydrated and my wrists smelling like flowers(or citrus…or lush greenery) so I like to keep my makeup bag stocked with my favorite products like lip balm and miniature vials of fragrance. What else do I consider essential? Read on for my Makeup Bag Must-Haves! What’s on your list?

Did I miss any deals worth a mention? Let me know!

Help! The Christmas season is almost upon us and I’m already stressed about what to get. I’m on a tight budget right now but I really want to purchase some wonderful gifts for all my fashionable friends. Do you have any savvy insight or ideas?

I’m glad to know that I’m not the only one who is already thinking about Christmas and the holidays! I say its never to early to shop for gifts, especially when you find incredible gifts at even more incredible prices. Assuming that you’re like the rest of us and have yet to get a leg up in your holiday shopping adventures, I’d say you should start a budget first. Make a list of people you want to buy gifts for and how much you’re willing to spend per person. Next, you need to decide what to get everyone on your list. If you can’t or don’t want to ask your friends and family what they want for a gift, let their personal taste and lifestyle generate ideas for you. Which celebrity fashion icon does she admire the most? What are her hobbies and passions? Ask yourself before you make any purchase, “would she really love to find this under her tree?”.

Still stumped and need some fabulous gift ideas? Here are a few things I would love to find under my tree!

Philosophy ‘oh twinkling night’ Duo, $15.00 at Nordstrom

Dooney & Bourke Shiny It Lucy Bag $195.00 at Dooney & Bourke

Vivre Silhouette Heart Cuff by Jessica Kagan Cushman $110.00 at Vivre

Boots are sexy and ankle boots(or booties as they are sometimes referred to) are even sexier. Whether you’re wearing super skinny jeans, a pretty feminine floral dress, or perhaps a tee shirt and denim skirt, it’s important to know that booties have the power to change any look into edgy madness! Don’t believe me? Check out five fabulous pairs of booties below and you’ll see what I mean.

1- Zig Soho Rally Booties $99.95 at DSW

2- Boutique 9 Daphnea Booties $225.00 at Nine West

3- Dereon Animate Yourself Booties $80.00 at Baker Shoes

POPBeauty is a cosmetics retail website that sells a wide variety of fabulous products in fun colors and cool packaging. If you love MAC and Urban Decay, chances are you’ll love this brand.

If you don’t know what to buy, may I make a few suggestions? First off,  POPBeauty’s Petal Jam lip balm(retail value $14.00 each) is all the rage! Its a hydrating balm that was enriched with Avocado Oil, Jojoba Oil, and Vitamin E to replenish softness while providing a hint of glossy shine. There are three lip balms to chose from including Blooming Orange, Budding Berry, and Bursting Violet.  Another favorite of mine is the Fantasy Lashes(retail value $15.00 each).  They’re perfect for anytime you really want to make a showstopping appearance or for enhancing your Halloween costume! These lashes actually come in five different styles including Clockwork(shown), Fanstasia, Wonderland, Rhapsody, and Psychedelic.  You can buy these products and more at POPBeauty.
