This, obviously, is the commencement of the shopping season.

I have MUCH to share, and will over subsequent posts, but for now, here’s the awesomeness going on at Sephora tomorrow!

Sephora.com

· Kat Von D Painted Love Lipstick Gift Set (#34 — $54 Value)– I LOVE Kat Von D – and live in her eye colors. This is a trio of her lipsticks…they are highly pigmented and festive colors, perfect for the holidays! This is limited edition, so jump on it fast if you are digging the shades.

· Sephora Brand I Love Sephora Brush Set (Now $29 — $120 Value) I travel a lot, and more each month, so I love compact sets that fulfill lots of needs at once. This is also great for holiday travel, it’s a set of five brushes – all you’d need for that perfect festive look!

· Fresh Sugar Wish Gift Set ($28, $55 Value) – I love sweets…but I need to start watching my weight! This is a duo for lips and body that smells and tastes sweet – but won’t make you gain an ounce. Plus, it comes in a sexy gold bag!

· Sephora Brand Blockbuster Palette to Go ($15, $50 Value) –This is great, it’s a super-comprehensive mini makeup palette that will fulfill all your makeup needs. (I love to take mine with me to work…you never know what will develop as the day goes on!)

· Philosophy The Winter Escape ($25) – If your sweet tooth is also a cozy warmth lover, this is pretty cool too – it’s inspired by the fireside, Peppermint Hot Cocoa and Melting Marshmallow scents! How awesome is that?

· Sephora Brand Collector’s Edition Fragrance Sampler For Her ($75, $160 Value) –  I hate when people buy me perfume…how do they know what scent I will like? (Unless I tell them. Then that’s OK.) This makes it easier, it includes a set of seven samples of Sephora’s most popular fragrances, and a gift voucher to choose your favorite one!

I remember all through my younger years (and possibly to be repeated this year), I’d hook up with my mom at around 4 am, get coffee to go, and hit whatever random sale was tickling our fancy – and often leave disappointed.

Whether or not it is a worthwhile excursion is not my right to say – but I can help you be prepared when you get there!

I have eight $5 gift cards to the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf - perfect to help you through any of your early morning shopping excursions this holiday shopping season. During a recent press trip to LA, I had my first experience at this chain and it is….out of this world! Better than even a certain Seattle chain. (Try their Swiss Mocha…trust me.)

Is this about beauty? Absolutely. We all look a lot better when we are well-caffeinated! But coffee doesn’t just wake you up. It has tons of great uses for beauty mavens:

1 – Rubbing coffee grounds on our hands helps deodorize them from various cooking scents. (Um, onions, garlic, etc? Gone!)

2 – Adds luster to hair! If you make a strong brew of your favorite bean (espresso is even better) and allow to cool before rubbing it onto dry hair, it will look more lustrous than you’ve ever seen it!

3 – It also is great as an exfoliant, body scrub, and cellulite buster!

Now, I’m not saying that those of you who win coffee should necessarily wear it (that would be somewhat of a waste when it tastes so delicious!), but it’s a great option for the multi-taskers within us all.

Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf exists at hundreds of locations worldwide and the gift cards will be good at all locations – but also for purchases online. To have your chance to win one of the eight gift cards, help me out with one of MY missions of the week:

1 -  – In your comment, tell us your favorite crazy Black Friday shopping memory!

Deadline to enter is December 19 (my birthday!). You are allowed to enter up to once per day. Good luck!
