Coach’s Little Secret

Well it may not be a secret to you, but I was shocked when I discovered Coach had it’s own version of Hautelook, Gilt, et cetera, where you get exclusive deals online that last for a certain time frame. 

Thanks to an amazing YouTube subscriber, I received a link from her to this site and had to sign up to be placed on a list for future events. I did it and walked away, figuring I’d find out eventually when I got an email.

Today, I got that email. Since a YouTuber was kind enough to share with me, I wanted to pay it forward and share the link love with you.

Right now they are having a sale much like you would find in an outlet store. If you live near an outlet, this may not matter too much to you. If you are like me and live anywhere from 60+ miles away, this is a dream come true.

So…

Go sign up!

Tell me what you buy once you gain access to the site! (FYI: It took close to a month for me to gain access, but it could be due to the sale hadn’t started yet.)

Buy This, Not That: MAC Lipglass

Now I consider myself to be a true MAC-y. I love just about anything and everything MAC comes out with. What I do not like is the price associated with it. However, I can say that there are plenty of other brands out there that are more expensive so….

Recently, I discovered a gloss that has me convinced it’s the best gloss known to man. The price tag is much nicer than MAC and I’m content wearing it with just about anything. I don’t need the fancy name of MAC to know this gloss makes me look good.

As you make your next shopping list for makeup, consider making a pit stop at your nearest Bath & Body Works and picking up a Mentha Lip Shine instead of buying the MAC Clear Lipglass.

The MAC gloss retails for $14.50 USD and gives you the perfect gloss and glass-like shine you want in a gloss. However, the Bath & Body Works Metha shine does the exact same thing, providing you an amazing glossy lip for only $7.50 USD, it comes in a variety of flavors, and you can usually get them for a deal (like right now – they are buy 2 and get 1 free). If both products provide the same look, why not save the money and get the same awesome results?!

When times are tough for many out there, the idea of shopping SMART to get the best bang for your buck only makes sense. I have fallen head over hills in love with this Bath & Body Works gloss and I don’t think I will ever go back.
