Some people associate the start of the holiday season with cold weather and the subtle takeover of eggnog-flavored everything, but I think I speak for all beauty lovers when I say the true seasonal kickoff is marked by Sephora's annual Holiday Savings Event. Ladies and gents, the day has come! And if you're a Rouge member (you know, the overachievers who spend over $1000 annually), you get to dive headfirst into all the savings the beloved beauty mecca has to offer, starting… now! In addition to early access, you also get to enjoy a whopping 20% off your fave beauty products during this promotion. All you have to do is enter HOLIDAYFUN at checkout.
Rouge members get first dibs, but don't worry. VIB members will be able to enjoy 15% off starting November 3, and Beauty Insiders can get in on the action with 10% off starting on November 5. Even if it's not exactly your time to shine just yet, this is still the perfect opportunity to scope out the stock early and fill up that cart so you can make your purchases the second you're able before the fun comes to an end on November 9.
Oh, and as usual, we already scrolled through the thousands of discounted items to bring you the very best finds you should walk away with. Ahead, check out the 27 best items for yourself and for everyone on your shopping list this season. And remember, the final day to cash in is November 9!

Longer, fuller hair is in your future.
Everyone loves Drunk Elephant's skincare products, and its new hair and body collection is just as great. I'd be stoked to find this under the tree.
If you've been teetering back-and-forth about buying the internet-famous Dyson Airwrap, this is the perfect opportunity to get it at a discount.

I promise you these cotton squares are different than your run-of-the-mill drugstore buy. They're as soft as clouds, and the tactile experience of running them across your face truly elevates the entire skincare process.
If your skin gets dry, red, and tight in the winter, this set has your name all over it.
Makeup
Pillow Talk is said to be the best-selling lipstick shade of all time. Here's a way to try it out in every finish available so you can switch up your lip look from matte to overlined to shimmery and more.
The winter blues are no match for that Fenty glow. You simply can't skip this one.
The beloved Laura Mercier setting powder now comes in a new shade, and it's so versatile. Think all-over setting for light to medium skin tones and under-eye brightening for deeper skin tones. It's a must-try if you ask me.

This famous scent is a wonderful bodywash, but if you're extra bougie, set it up sinkside to up your handwashing game.
Fragrance
Something about the turn of the season makes me want to switch gears in the scent department. I think this sweet scent from Prada is up next.
Even if you can't spend your whole life luxuriating by the fireplace, at least you can smell like it.
My beauty PIC Erin Jahns and I have both been going wild for this fragrance ever since it was released earlier this month. It is the perfect combination of musky and sweet.
There's no shame in being indecisive when it comes to fragrance. This set allows you to try all of Sephora's best sellers and comes complete with a voucher you can redeem for a full-size bottle once you've decided which one you love best. Genius!
Your home needs a little fragrance moment, too. Set one of these candles in every room.
