It’s that time of the year! National Lash Day is upon us and I am here with your mascara deal round-up. This fun day falls on February 19th every year and the objective is to promote the love for lashes. It is believed to have been started back in 2015 by the House of Lashes brand. Today, it is celebrated by dozens of makeup brands with some pretty exciting promotions. There is literally no better time in the year to purchase or restock your mascara favourites. Here is a list of all the 2024 National Lash Day deals and whether they are worth your money. (This post may contain affiliate…

Valentine’s Day is a week away and with that comes a flurry of deals as brands try to capitalize on this holiday. I know the concept of this day isn’t for everyone but the good news is that you don’t need to be in a relationship to take advantage of all of these promotions. When was the last time you heard someone complain about getting a deal? Based on history, however, beauty brands do not give out deep discounts during this holiday. In fact, you may be better off waiting until March when all of the Friends & Family promotions are announced. That is when brands really shell out the…

I debated writing this blog post as it doesn’t really align with what Margin Of Beauty is all about. My focus has always been on sharing Canadian-friendly beauty deals which means no duties, high shipping fees, or currency exchanges. Well, today I am making an exception and I am reviewing this magical place called the IPSY Shop. The only thing standing in the way of it being Canadian-friendly is that it charges in U.S. dollars. This means you are subject to those pesky exchange fluctuations. The prices and deals are so good though that you may just be able to turn a blind eye. So, let’s get into this IPSY…

Black Friday deals have started to drop and so far they are looking more generous than usual. I wouldn’t declare myself an expert in beauty deals but I would say that I have a pretty good gauge of what a good deal looks like on a brand by brand basis. This is a result of years of summarizing Canadian-friendly beauty deals on Margin Of Beauty. While you can find a comprehensive list of all the Black Friday beauty deals on this site, I thought I would help narrow down the best of the best. The main qualifier being that it is the best discount or offer that I have ever…

Back by popular demand, I have decided to post another guide to help you navigate through all the 2023 Singles’ Day beauty deals. Last year I published a blog post called Deal Or No Deal: Are These 2022 Singles’ Day Beauty Deals Worth It? and the objective was simple. Should you take advantage of these deals or wait a few more weeks for Black Friday and Cyber Monday? What holiday offers up the biggest savings by brand? November is after all the Superbowl of sales and shopping. So let’s get right into it. Here is a roundup of all the 2023 Singles’ Day beauty deals in Canada and whether they…

Something is up with Sephora’s prices. They seem to have taken a significant price increase this year on many brands and the results are glaring. For example, one of my favourite Clarins creams was $60 just a few months ago and is now $78. My jaw literally dropped when I saw the price. What is even more confusing is that the Clarins Canadian website still has the cream retailing for $60. With all these increases, it got me thinking about what I actually want to pick up from the upcoming bi-annual Sephora Savings Event. The Sephora Savings Event is a sitewide sale where consumers can save anywhere from 10-20% based…

Some people love Christmas or their birthday but my favourite day of the year is National Lipstick Day! This day falls on July 29th every year and you can count on beauty brands stepping up with some exciting deals. It is believed that Huda Kattan, founder of Huda Beauty, started this day back in 2006. The goal was simple – wear your favourite shade loud and proud. National Lipstick Day has come a long way from 2006. Each year the lippie deals get more plentiful and more generous. There is no better time of the year to fulfill your lipstick wishlist! Here is a roundup of all the 2023 National…
