Hi friends! I can’t wait to tell you about this month’s beauty deals at QVC. I’m sure I’ve mentioned that the QVC studio is located just down the road from me. I actually worked there for a short time before we had kids, so it’s fun to partner with them now on the blog.
QVC always has great deals across all departments, but I particularly like to check out their Beauty iQ page to see what beauty deals they have going.
I discovered the St. Tropez Self-Tan Express Bronzing Mousse at QVC last spring. I love it because you can get results in as little as one hour. You just exfoliate and lotion your skin, then apply the tanning mousse in long sweeping motions with the included mitt.
After one, two, or three hours — depending on your desired shade — you shower off and go. The tan continues to develop for up to eight hours, but your base tan is good to go after just an hour.
The St. Tropez Self-Tan Express Bronzing Mousse Duo with Mitts includes two of the full size St. Tropez Self Tan Express Bronzing Mouse and two mitts for almost half off the full retail price. I definitely need this for my Florida trip coming up in a few weeks.
The next thing I want to be sure to tell you about is the ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm Duo. You know how much I love my ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm, and I never miss an opportunity to score a deal.
ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm Duo
If you haven’t used a cleansing balm before, you’ll want to apply with your fingertips to dry skin and take a minute to massage it in. It smells amazing and gently melts away your makeup and all the dirt and grime from the day.
Then use the included cleansing cloth soaked in warm water to finish removing your makeup. I love to place it over my face and breathe in the aroma of essential oils and others goodness before I start wiping it off.
The video on the QVC website explains it really well, but the ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm really is like getting a spa experience at home every night. You can also use it once or twice a week as a mask, if you want. I had never heard that before, so I’m definitely going to try it now.
The one I’ve got pictured here is the 7 oz. size, so it’s like a super-sized one. The ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm Duo at QVC includes two 3.4 oz. Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balms and cleansing cloths for $83.60.
They would be $128 if purchased separately, so that’s a really good cost savings. You can even put it on auto-order, if you like.
The last product I want to tell you about is partly new to me, but it’s from one of my favorite natural makeup brands. This 3-piece set from tarte cosmetics includes a super-size Shape Tape Concealer, Shape Tape Glow Blush, and 2-in-1 Face Brush with a cute little gift bag. I was thinking of sending one to my daughter at college for Valentine’s Day.
tarte Super-Size Shape Tape Dream Team 3-Pc Kit
First, let’s talk about this super-sized Shape Tape. It’s 0.67 oz. as opposed to the typical 0.34 oz. so you’re getting twice as much, plus the wand is slightly larger too. You can use their shade chart to find a good color for you. I have it in the 16N, fair light neutral.
The set comes with a retractable brush that you can use with both the concealer and the blush. You use it on the lowest dense setting for the concealer, and then you twist it up for a fluffy brush that’s perfect for applying blush.
I normally just use Shape Tape on my under-eye area, but I watched the video on the QVC website and tried it on the high points of my face as well. I love the effect. The brush really gives it a beautiful, airbrushed finish.
And take a look at this blush. Isn’t that beautiful? It goes on really smooth and subtle, never blotchy or heavy.
Just twist the brush to get the more fluffy setting, and blend into the skin. It’s buildable to give you that perfect shimmery, rosy glow we all covet. I was wearing both the Shape Tape Concealer applied pretty much over most of my face and the Shape Tape Glow Blush in these pictures.
I thought the Shape Tape Concealer would be too heavy, but it actually worked perfectly. It has a matte finish, but it’s moisturizing too.
This tarte Super-Size Shape Tape Dream Team 3-Pc Kit is a $109 value, but it’s at QVC right now for $43.96 plus free standard shipping and handling. Pretty sweet!
If it’s your first time shopping at QVC, you can take $10 off your purchase of $25 or more with code SURPRISE, and if it’s your second purchase, you can get $10 off $25 or more with code HELLO10.

That is neat you live by the QVC studio and even worked there once upon a time. You never have mentioned it that I know of. I’d love for you to share your life on Coffee Talk and let us know more about you. Like where you grew up, went to school, went to college, jobs, how old you were when you had your kids etc. I know you’ve mentioned some of this, but a bio would be neat to read as you are such a good writer. As for QVC, I’ve never ordered from them before. My cousin does ALL the time. I’ve never used the shape tape and not sure how to. I use the Colleen Rothchild’s cleansing balm you recommended years ago and I can do the smell, as I’m sensitive to smells. Is this Elemis the same type of spa smell and what would you say the difference is between the 2 and why did you change over? I just love how the balms work. I didn’t realized I was suppose to be putting them on dry skin first. I’ve always wet my finger tips first to get it to lather up some. Going to do the dry way tonight….thanks for heads up. Also, could you style some Spring jackets/blazers coming up? Again, thanks for all you do to make your blog so nice.
Definitely need to try the tarts products! Also love your guest bath!
I love using the Elemis face balm as a mask. It gives a gorgeous glow to my face but I think it’s really the scent that I use it as mask. The scent is amazing and it feels like you are really at the spa even if you’re just at home.
