(CNN) —
If you missed out on any beauty deals during the chaos of shopping Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales this year, never fear: Sephora has your back with Sephorathon, which kicks off December 3 and runs for a whole month. (Unlike running an actual marathon, however, this event won’t leave you sweaty and dirty — quite the opposite.)
Here’s how it works: Make sure you sign up for Sephora’s Beauty Insider program, which is free (or log into your account if you’re already enrolled). Then you can start saving. Different levels of members get different levels of savings.
- From December 3 through December 9, when you enter 2020SAVE at checkout, Rouge members can take $25 off $75, VIBs can take $20 off $75 and Insiders can take $15 off $75.
- From December 10 through December 16, it’s all about points, which lead to rewards down the line. Using the code BIGPOINTS, Rouge members get 4x per $1, VIBs gets 3x per $1 and Insiders receive 2x per $1.
- On December 19, members can play an online scratch card game for a chance to win an e-gift card of either $10 or $100. (It’s also available in-store, but minimizing nonessential trips is still a good idea right now.)
- From December 20 through January 1, the final stretch of this marathon month, members get a straight-up 20% off online with the code MAJORSALE at checkout.

YSL’s handy little highlighter/concealer duo is perfect for when you need a little pick-me-up ahead of your next Zoom meeting but don’t want to put on a face full of makeup for it. With a click that dispenses just the right amount of product and a brush that seems to magically melt the product into your pores (in a good way), this little staple is one that can live right in that desktop pencil jar.
