Hi everyone!
Today, I’m sharing what I got from Black Friday and Holiday sales! In the past two years, it seems like I do the most damage in October and November because I just can’t resist a Black Friday sale!
I’m not going to put the prices up because I’d rather not see the grand total of what I spent during the sales, but I will include the discount.
Sephora – 20% off
- First Aid Beauty KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub with 10% AHA
- bareMinerals Original Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF15 in Light
Shiseido – 30% off when you spend $200
- Eyelash Curler (comes with replacement pad)
- 2 x Eyelash Curler Pads (2 replacement pads per pack, so I got 4 in total lol)
- Synchro Skin Self-Refreshing Concealer in 202 Light
- Synchro Skin Self-Refreshing Concealer in 203 Light
- Overnight Wrinkle Resisting Cream (for my mom)
Kiehl’s – 25% off
- Centella Sensitive Facial Cleanser
- 2 x Ultimate Strength Hand Salve
Mejuri – 20% off when you spend $150 (I believe this is the only sale they have throughout the year)
- Twist Ring in 14k White Gold
- 2x Single Mini Hoop in 14k White Gold
Last year, I bought the Single Mini Hoops and I’ve been wearing them ever since. I decided to get 2 more for my second piercings. To bump it up to $150, I also got the Twist ring. Last year, I got the Braided ring. I haven’t worn it much though, because it looked a bit plain on its own. So now I have the twist one to stack. Their diamond huggies are super cute too.
Old Navy – 50% off code for being a Navyist Rewards Member
- Creaseless Hair Clips 4-pack (Tortoise shell/Coral pink)
- Dynamic Fleece Pullover Hoodie in Icelandic Mineral
- Vintage Long-Sleeve Sweatshirt in Inkwell
- Printed Flannel Pajama Pants in Red Fair Isle
La Vie En Rose – 2 for 1
- Soft plush Robe in Lilac Cloud
- Soft Plush Robe in Black Buffalo Plaid
Naturalizer – 30% off
- Blondo Skylar Waterproof Combat Boot in Black Suede (wide)
I have wide feet unfortunately and I’ve realized it’s ridiculous to put bandaids on my pinky toes when I wear my winter boots. I was on the hunt for a nice pair. I got these Blondo boots in wide. I read a few reviews, but it’s hard to decide based on a few website reviews, so I just decided to try them. They were definitely not wide. I know Blondo is known for having a narrow fit, but I thought maybe these would be okay. These were probably what would be considered a regular fit for other brands. I was wearing regular, thin socks and while my foot fit into them, they would be super uncomfortable. You could also see the shape of my foot in the boot and it just didn’t look nice. Unfortunately, they only accept returns online which means they charge $8 to ship it back to them (taking it off your refund).
The Shoe Company – 30% off?
- Skechers On-The-Go Glacial Ultra-Woodlands Wide Winter Boot in Black Suede
Skechers is a brand that I own quite a few running shoes from. Even with their regular fit, they’re very comfortable. I recently purchased a wide fit sneaker and they are super comfy for me. So I got these knowing that Skechers is a brand that I like.
Spanx – 20% off for regular priced items, I think. I got something from the sale section, so it was 50% off
- Spotlight on Lace Regular Waist Brief in Vintage Rose
Aerie online order – 30% off sale or something
- AerieREAL Period Underwear (I will be posting a review on this once I’ve tried it out)
- AF Super Cropped Scoop Neck Cami in Black
- Wrap One Piece Swimsuit in Black
- High Neck Henley Tank Top in White
I bought the swimsuit because I realized I sold all of my swimsuits on Poshmark. Even though I haven’t gone swimming/to the beach in 6 years lol, I thought it’d be good to have one just in case. I was disappointed when I tried it on and ended up returning it. I don’t think I have a particularly long torso, but the body was so short (it was cutting into my butt). I can’t imagine a taller person wearing it. Even though you can adjust the straps to make it a bit longer, it would make the bust lower and the wrap part just wasn’t flattering to begin with…It wasn’t giving any lift to the girls. When I was thinking about buying it, I was a bit worried about whether it would stretch from wrapping it all the time, but I wanted to try it anyway since they have free returns. Back to the drawing board for this one.
Aerie in-store purchase – 10 for $40
- Pointelle High Cut Bikini Underwear (high cut, peek of cheek)
- Cotton Cable Lace Boybrief Underwear (regular rise, no cheek peek)
- Cotton Eyelash Lace Boybrief Underwear (low rise, no cheek peek)
- Ribbed Cotton Boybrief Underwear (low rise, no cheek peek)
I have previously purchased Aerie underwear a few years back and the boybrief underwear were really stretchy and too big. I got the same size in all of the underwear I bought and it just didn’t fit right. I’ve had time to try all of the underwear I bought and they all fit nicely. The Cotton Cable Lace ones are my favourite. A lot of my underwear are low rise and I’ve realized how much I like a regular rise.
With all of the online orders, I managed to get about $20 cashback from Rakuten.

Did you pick up anything during the Black Friday sales?
Love,
