how often does Sephora have their Friends and Family sale or any sales in general?

Hi, how often will Sephora have 20% disc? Gotta give this time's one a miss :(

i went to the sephora in victoria b.c. and the sales lady said she didnt know why they ff sale wasnt for canadains, and she said online there was a code for free stuff just for canadains being that we couldnt use the ff code... but i havnt seen anything like that:S:S:S anyone know what she was talking about??

I just made my second Sephora Friends and Family sale. I have to take advantage of this special discount especially on high end brands which are more expensive and what I would never purchase at full price :) I also just received my first FF products in the mail today :) I am so excited to try the YSL Touche Eclat Radiant Touch. This will be my first time using it. I bought it in #5. I am also excited to try the Laura Mercier Moisturizer and the Dior Mascara set :) Ok, here is what I purchased today: 1. YSL Tient Resist Longwear Foundation in #6 - $55 2. Dior DiorSkin Shimmer Start in Rose Diamond - $44 3. Shiseido White Lucent Brightening Cleanser - $35 4. NARS Smudgeproof eye shadow base - $24 That's it :) I'm looking forward to trying the YSL foundation. I hope I like it. The great thing about ordering from Sephora is that if you don't like it, you can return it at a Sephora store. I won't need to ship it back in order to get me money back :) Thanks Christine for the F&F code. Without it I would not have been able to enjoy all these lovely products :)

Thanks for posting the coupon code, Christine! Just did my haul: Clinique BCA Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion Luxury Size Sephora Favorites Collector's Edition Fragrance Sampler For Her Clarisonic Replacement Brush Head Twin-Pack — Normal Korres Vitamin E 10-Color Pencil Kit Plus the free birthday gift and I'm eligible now for the Skincare Challenge reward, but hoping there will be better rewards to choose from at my Sephora store than there were online. So excited for my goodies!

If I wasn't planning on buying the neutral lipglass from the MAC holiday collection when it comes out in 2 weeks I would indulge in this sale. But I would get the Peace, Love, and Juicy Couture fragrance and maybe an eye shadow palette (but I just got the Stila It Girl one 2 weeks ago). I did tell my mom about the sale so hopefully for my birthday or Christmas I will be getting the Juicy Couture. I already have the other 3 and I find its one of few fragrances that doesn't break me out. But am I the only one that wishes the Urban Decay Naked Palette was in stock so I could get 20% off that?!

Christine, I envy your patience :D You must have answered the same question like 30 times. At that point I would have just pretended not to notice lol

So yesterday after work I went into my local Sephora to look at some things I wasn't sure about yet. I had noticed that my night-time moisturizer was already sold out online, but they had it in-store, so I asked one of the employees, "so....Friends & Family is online only, right?" She said they weren't advertising it, but they had extra cards at the register that they were giving to people who asked for them. These are the cards that the employees were given to hand out to their friends, but were extras. Probably a limited amount, depending on how many each employee had given out. Anyway, one of the girls gave me one, so I loaded up my basked in the store. They let me keep the card, so I can use it again if I want. I'm still trying to decide if I'm going to get Caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum, and I might grab a bottle of Clinique Clarifying Lotion, though I don't know that I need more right now.) I bought: Clinique Moisture Surge (larger size) Fresh Lotus Eye Gel Fresh Sugar Lip Balm First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream 2-pack replacement Clarisonic brushes Anastasia tweezers Anastasia mini duo brush/spoolie (I wanted the Anastasia kit, but it doesn't come in Strawburn)(*When I got home, there was a 20% off Ulta card in my mail, and they carry a smaller kit in Strawburn, so I am going to go check that out tomorrow. I don't know if I can use the coupon on Anastasia, but if I can, I'll get that and return the tools to Sephora, since they both come in the kit.) Free gifts: Murad Oil-Control Mattifier (Skincare Challenge) Tarina Tarantino Pearl Glow Primer (for showing the Sephora app on my phone, will probably gift this) 2 packets of Philosophy Purity Made Simple 1 packet of Givenchy perfume (I can't wear perfumes, so I will gift this) 1 packet of Dr. Brandt Pores No More And a 500-pt gift that looks like they just made it in-store. I like it better than the official BE 500-pt gift, though. Contains deluxe samples of: Korres Antiaging & Antiwrinkle treatment Murad Clarifying Mask Strivectin Intensive Concentrate for Wrinkles & Stretchmarks DDF Restoring Night Serum Shiseido Super Revitalizer Cream Dr. Brandt Pores No More Lotion Now I just need to order a few online-only things: Tarte Lights Camera Splashes! mascara (my store doesn't have Tarte) Too Faced Powder Pouf brush (my store was out) First Aid Beauty On the Go Defense Kit (online only) Fresh Brown Sugar Lip Polish (online only) Not too bad, and I shouldn't need any more skincare items until the Spring sale. :P

Just placed an order for my mom...got her two Lancome L'Absolu Rouge lipsticks!

I've changed my cart so many times in the past week! I ended up with: Tweezerman pointed tweezers Bobbi Brown creamy concealor kit in Honey Bobbi Brown color corrector in Dark Bisque Bobbi Brown gel liner in Cavier DDF erase eye gel Smashbox arced eyeliner brush- ( I was gonna purchase the Sephora black eyeliner box set that had this brush in it, but I realized at I would never use all those pencil liners b/c gel liner is the only thing that works for me. So I just ordered the brush itself) Laura Mercier sheer l/s in Tender Lips Kate Sommerville Exfolikate- I was gonna get this regardless, but I'm so glad they came out with a smaller $20 version b/c I did Not want to spend $100 dollars on it! Nars blush in Deepthroat- I had been stalking this for a while! I saved $50! I'll probably do another order next week; I always feel obliged to take advantage of any discounts because Sephora hardly Ever does anything for VIBs! What's up with that!? Oh well:)

Thank you, Christine, for the code and all the details, as well as your endless patience! You have taught me so much!!! I'm around an NC 35-40, but your swatches are so, so helpful for me to estimate what will look good on me. I've always neglected my lips, but you have really converted me into a lip product fan!!!

Christine, I was wondering if free shipping works if i have $50 worth of stuff in my cart and then after the promotion its $40..?

Fellow Canucks! I just saw this on the Sephora Facebook page: "O Canada…We’re as disappointed as you are that we can’t offer you our online Friends & Family discount due to technical limitations. But we want to make it up to you. So take your pick: A Vera Wang Princess Tote or a Tarte Be Good To Your Mother Earth Set—FREE with ANY online order while supplies last. Enter code: LOVEMARIT for the Vera Wang Tote or BEGOOD for the Tarte set We hope you enjoy your gift and accept our apologies! (while supplies last, not available in stores)" there are also rumours of a 20% off in-store deal for us after F&F US wraps up, but I'm not holding my breath.

I got a few things (a benefit kit and some moisturizer and that smashbox eye palette that was on sale). I was really hoping to get a new eyelash curler, but the shu uemera's aren't for sale anymore. Any recommendations on the second best eye lash curler?

Made two purchases. I spent waaay too much and there are still a million things I want. Murad Starter Kit Benefit Some Beauty to Love Set Benefit Hoola Sephora Eyebrow trimmer Sephora for OPI in Merry Me BE Tutorial- Rocker Eye BE Tutorial- Smokey "V" BE Tutorial- Smokey Eye

I've also rec'd one of those "credit card pending" notices. I'm a little irritated about that since I shop with them on a monthly basis using the same card.

Do you know if there's going to be a discount available for use in stores? I emailed Sephora earlier but haven't gotten a response.

Does anyone know if this works when you buy sephora from amazon.com? I can't buy from sephora.com cause i don't have a US credit card, but i want to buy some things and send it to a friend that lives in miami so that he can bring then when he comes visit the next month

I don't understand why they cannot do this in stores, I hate shopping online

I placed my order yesterday afternoon and I just got the shipment confirmation ... it's already out for delivery and should arrive in a couple of hours! And that was with free shipping! Bravo, Sephora :)

I was about to buy the Benefit Stay Put Set to get free shipping but it's sold out! ARGHH! Dang beauty junkies :(

Thanks so much!!! Just used it!!!! Haha spent quite a bit :P

MY HAUL: Bobbi Brown Corrector - Bisque Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer Kit - Sand NARS Follow The Boys Lip Gloss Set - Follow The Boys Lip Gloss Set NARS Blush - Sex Appeal NARS Makeup Primer SPF 20 - 1.7 oz NARS Duo Eyeshadow - Melusine NARS Sheer Glow Foundation - Santa Fe NARS Trio Eye Shadow - Okinawa NARS Single Eye Shadow - Biarritz I've been wanting to try Bobbi Brown concealers/correctors forever! Then I had to have the new NARS collection plus a few odds and ends. The code worked for me just fine. Happy shopping.

Finally going to buy Guerlain Meteorites. I've been tempted for awhile but have managed to restrain myself until now.

I wish I would have waited on getting my Clarisonic, UD BOS III, and TF Glamourland palette until this sale. Oh well. I hauled: Stila Backstage palette LORAC tie dye lip gloss set LORAC Holiday train case palette 3 MUFE Rouge Intense lipsticks TF Insurance Policy palette

My haul: NARS Duos in Misfit, Melusine and Sugarland, NARS e/s in Etrusque, NARS Eyeshadow base, the Laura Mercier Eye Book and Korres Mascara in Gray Green (for $9!!). I'm considering another order that could possibly include the Smashbox Hazel Eyes kit, Fresh Sugar Rose kit and a couple of the Sephora brand Vinyl lip pencils.

Placed my order :) I got: Clarisonic Plus RareMinerals Moisturizer NARS Sex Appeal Blush NARS Etrusque eyeshadow

I seriously hope my husband doesn't check the credit card anytime soon! Here's my haul: MUFEAqua Eyes - Majorelle Blue Illamasqua Intense Lipgloss - Fume LORAC Multiplex 3D Lip Gloss - Cliche Kate Somerville Detox Daily Cleanser Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Guerlain Rouge G de Guerlain Lipstick - Gracia I needed to stock up on my Kate Somerville skincare since I missed out on the last Gilt sale and I've been lemming the Guerlain lipstick for months! I totally forgot about the Nars stuff I've been after, so there may be another order in the works (and another Rouge G lipstick!). I would have been on board the extra $3 for faster shipping, but I'm in China on business so it wouldn't have mattered anyways. Fingers crossed I get home before this arrives so that the hubby doesn't freak out!

Just placed my order- saved $50 overall thanks to this sale (which i've been planning for haha) My Haul: UD 24/7 eyeliner in El Dorado Nars Blush in Orgasm MUFE Duo Mat Nars eye shadow in Night Star UD Book of Shadows III YSL Rouge Volupt lipstick in 29 Opera Rose Laura Mercier Tinted Mosturizer Nars Eyeliner in Iceburg

I went for YSL L'Homme cologne for the boyfriend (planning for Christmas already!), Nars lipstick, Nars Lipgloss and Dior Rouge lipstick! I'm so excited!

It is beyond ridiculous that Sephora does not extend this to Canadian customers. I shop there all the time and this is seriously making me question and re-consider my loyalty. I wrote to Sephora about it also.

I ended up buying: benefit high beam to go (just to try it out) shiseido eyelash curler DDF sulfur therapeutic mask MUFE mat velvet + korres lip butter in quince saved $22 :) can't wait til it gets here!

Is It only on line or in stores as well?
