beautyforbabies-360x200

It’s the time you’ve all been waiting for! It’s time for you to learn, once and for all, just what we’ve been Twitter teasing you about these past few days!

The back story:

Moved by Heather and Mike’s story and wanting to do something to honor the beautiful and brave Madeline Spohr, Cindy Deily (a buyer at Sephora) decided to rally her colleagues to dig deep into their personal beauty stashes to put together an auction to benefit the March of Dimes. 100% of the proceeds from the auction, less shipping costs and PayPal fees, will be donated to the MOD in Maddie’s honor. All items up for auction are new and unused. Retail values of each lot are will be stated.

What this means for you:

Starting tomorrow and continuing every day for a week, we’ll be putting up auction items (19 lots total), from brands that include Clarisonic, T3, ghd, Caudalie, NUDE Skincare, Boscia, Bare Escentuals, REN, Dior, NV Perricone, Fresh, Stella McCartney, Juice Beauty, Ojon, Phyto, Frederic Fekkai, Fusion Beauty, Cartier, Calvin Klein, Vera Wang, Marc Jacobs, Guerlain, Too Faced, and MORE! Bidding will be contained in the comments, with each consecutive comment outbidding the last. Retail values for the lots range from $114 to $363 and bidding on each lot will start at approximately 25% of the retail price. The auction is open to everyone, however due to shipping restrictions, we can ONLY ship to the United States and Canada. We apologize for any inconvenience!
