Long weekends come with their share of advantages and disadvantages. The best part is that you get a day off to do anything you want. And the worst? Travelling. I know it’s anti-climactic. Long weekends are meant to be used for travel! But with the long queues at airports and overcrowded vacation spots, it seems like the city is the best place to be during this time.
But if like me, you too are travelling on the long weekend and wondering how to spend your time if your flight is delayed again, may I suggest my favourite and most therapeutic activity? Shopping for beauty products. Plus, most websites are running fantastic deals thanks to Republic Day, so you’ll be saving up so much!
The Best Republic Day Deals To Make The Most Of
Hair Care
Haircare is all the rage right now so if you’re looking to improve your hair’s health, run, don’t walk. Toni&Guy has a flat 50% off running on Nykaa. The Volume Addict shampoo and conditioner combo is an excellent deal for my flat-haired girlies.
The Tresemme serums are excellent no doubt, but to revive your damaged locks bond repair is the way to go. The Keratin Repair Bond Plex Oil Hair Serum is at an excellent 20% off and a steal deal!
Luxury Perfumes
If like me, smelling good is a top priority, luxury perfumes that are long-lasting and don’t require regular spritzing are your best bet. My top picks are the Carolina Herrera Good Girl Eau De Parfum & the Chopard Wish Eau De Parfum that are at 20% and 30% off respectively.
Makeup
The best time to get your hands on this coveted lipstick is now! MyGlamm is running a Republic Day sale this year which enables you to get a 74% cashback on every single order. All you need to do is use the coupon code REPUBLIC74CB to make the most of this offer.
I treat Amazon as my local kiranawala now. It’s my go-to for everything from nail polish remover to a BB cream and the Maybelline New York Hypercurl Mascara is at 25% off!
Renee’s Gloss Touch Nail Paint Set is at 50% off and caters to the Indian skin tone with some really stunning shades!
One of my favourite K-beauty makeup brands, Kaja beauty is running 40% off on everything. You can never have too many lippies, so the Jelly Charm lip stain that doubles as a blush is a must-have (it even comes with a cute keychain).
Skincare
The POPxo Beach Bum sunscreen is one of my personal favourites not only because of its SPF 50 but also because it smells delectable, just like vanilla.
Neutrogena’s Hydro Boost Hyaluronic Acid Water Gel Face Moisturizer is at a flat 20% off and it’s a great time to snag this excellent moisturiser that gives plump and dewy skin.
The Foxtale Brightening Vitamin C Face Serum contains both L-Ascorbic Acid and Vitamin E that soothe the skin and give it that coveted glow.
Despite being a new launch, the L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Hyaluronic Acid Eye Serum is running a flat 10% off. If like me, you too struggle with dark circles, under-eye bags, and wrinkles, this serum is the solution!
Body Care
The Bath & Body Works semi-annual sale is also the best time to stock up on hydrating and divine-smelling moisturisers. Vanilla Bean Noel is one of my favourite scents and you best believe I’ll be getting multiple of it while its priced so low!
Victoria’s Secret is also running great discounts and the Almond Blossom Oat Milk Body Scrub is to die for, if you’re into smooth, supple skin with no bumps.
The Body Shop’s Avocado range is one of my favourite so far and the shower cream has effectively cleaned and left my skin so hydrated. It’s at 50% off!
RIP my bank account but these deals are truly too good to pass up on!
