I’m super type A when it comes to beauty products. I keep written lists (because I’m old school) stashed in my vanity drawers detailing all of my favorite products in different categories: hair, skincare, makeup, bodycare, tools, fragrance… heck, even candles. It’s a little OTT, but then again, hundreds of beauty products cross my path on a monthly basis, and I have to have some sort of organized way of A) remembering which products I need to tell all of you about and B) which products are so good they’re worth a re-buy once I run out. Oh, and here’s another interesting tidbit: an absurd number of these must-have beauty items can be purchased with an effortless click or two on Dermstore’s website. The thing is, since I, unfortunately, have pretty expensive taste where beauty is concerned, constantly restocking can be an uncomfortable jolt to my bank account, and over the years, I’ve learned to be much more strategic about when and where I buy my products. 

You probably already know where I am going with this, but sales—really epic sales, in particular—are my favorite time to go balls-to-the-wall with all of my product restocking. I’m currently knee-deep in empties, so the fact that Dermstore’s May Summer Event has finally arrived couldn’t feel more opportune. From May 24 to June 1, you can snag 10%, 15%, and even 20% off tons of the retailer's most sought-after labels, and you can score double points on purchases you make from other brands that aren’t offering discounts. So yes, it’s time to have a field day and shop until you drop! Simply use the code SALEAWAY at checkout to save. Keep scrolling for 20 big-ticket items sitting in my shopping cart.

She considers her day-to-day beauty aesthetic very low-maintenance and relies on staples like clear brow serum (from Kimiko!), Lawless's Lip Plumping Mask in Cherry Vanilla, and an eyelash curler. For special occasions or days when she's taking more meetings or has an event, she'll wear anything and everything from Charlotte Tilbury (the foundations are game-changing), some shimmer on her lids (Stila and Róen do it best), and a few coats of the best mascara-type product on earth, Surratt's Noir Lash Tint.
