Empire Beauty School's Cuts For a Cause October 15th

Empire Beauty Scholls are supporting National Domestic Violence Month by offering services at a steep discount, this Saturday, Oct. 15th.

The details:

Get a haircut or manicure, support a local shelter and victims in need.

One in every four women will experience domestic violence in their lifetime. This staggering statistic is the reason why Empire Beauty Schools will once again host its annual National Day of Beauty, a system-wide fundraising initiative to support the victims of domestic abuse on a local, and very much needed, level.

On Saturday, October 15th each of Empire’s 102 school locations in 21 states will open its doors to women, men and children of all ages for haircuts, coloring, nail services and more. 100% of the proceeds from these beauty services will benefit local domestic violence shelters in each school’s community. Empire students are selling $5 service cards to customers to be redeemed the day of the event, which means that clients will receive services at a fraction of the already discounted student salon prices. Walk-ins are also welcome. To date, Empire Gives Back and the National Day of Beauty program has raised more than $250,000 to support local shelters, and aid in the fight against domestic violence.

Harajuku Lovers Jingle G

Get ready for some  cute. This new for holiday Harajuku Lovers, Jingle G, is so darn adorable. I usually don't go for cutesy but I loved the original girls and a Christmas one is the best yet. I can't imagine there aren't many who wouldn't love  to find this under or on their tree.

Jingle G is is dressed in her Christmas finery and comes in a case that has a to-from tag and a ribbon to loop on the tree. Once opened , she has another ribbon  and the top cap comes off the perfume so Jingle G can be an ornament long after the fruity/vanilla fragrance is used up.

 Jingle G is  LE for the holidays and $ 25.00 for .33 oz EDT , exclusive to Sephora and  Sephora.com
