Boxing Day Sales 2016

For those who wait patiently until Boxing Day Sales to pick up the best value bargains after Christmas, here are some suggestions on Femeconomy approved brands offering excellent deals. I generally wait until the new year sales to restock linen, children’s clothes, underwear (because we all have our favourite brands!), beauty and cosmetics supplies, at a considerable discount.

So if the thought of getting in the car, fighting the traffic and then trying to score an undercover parking spot fills you with dread, never fear! You can shop from home, beat the rush, avoid the crush and support gender equality with our curated list of sales by Femeconomy approved brands.

*CONFESSION!* I have also snuck some fitness brands in at the bottom of the post. Y’know just in case you feel like making a New Year’s resolution, and need some motivation?

The Body Shop

Shimmer Cubes Violet Palette 50% off at $14.97

One of the essential ingredients is moisturising Community Fair Trade marula oil.

Dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested, Shimmer Cubes are also suitable for contact-lens wearers, and those with sensitive eyes.
