Beauty shopping has a funny way of turning a quick browse into a full-blown wishlist.
One minute you’re looking for a new moisturiser, the next you’re mentally justifying a perfume, a lipstick and a serum you absolutely did not plan on buying.
Luckily, the David Jones Four Days of Beauty event is on now, which is giving shoppers 20 per cent off a selection of beauty and fragrance from brands including Lancôme, Clarins, Jo Malone London, Gucci and Giorgio Armani.

Running from October 29 to November 1, the offer is the perfect excuse to revisit those beauty favourites you’ve had sitting in your online cart, or finally replace the skincare you’ve been stretching out for longer than you’d care to admit.
There’s just one important detail before you get carried away: the offer is exclusive to eligible David Jones credit card customers.
That means you’ll need to meet the promotion’s eligibility requirements to take advantage of the discount.
The beauty buys worth adding to your wishlist
If your skincare routine could use a little refresh, Lancôme’s Rénergie Collagen Cream 50ml, usually $185, is one to have on your radar.
With 20 per cent off, it comes down to $148, saving $37. It’s a handy opportunity for anyone who’s been eyeing the moisturiser and waiting for the right moment to make it theirs.
Also on the skincare shortlist is Clarins Double Serum 75ml, priced at $250 before the discount. With the offer applied, it drops to $200, giving shoppers a $50 saving.
For fragrance lovers, Jo Malone London’s Wood Sage & Sea Salt Cologne 100ml is another standout. With its usual $268 price tag, the 20 per cent discount brings it to $214.40, a saving of $53.60.
A great buy if you’re looking for a new everyday signature scent or a gift that looks as good on a dressing table as it smells.
Gucci Guilty Pour Homme Eau de Parfum 50ml is also included, dropping from $148 to $118.40.
And because a beauty refresh doesn’t have to stop at skincare and perfume, there are a couple of makeup picks worth a look, too.
Giorgio Armani Eye Tint, usually $62, comes down to $49.60, while Sisley’s Le Phyto-Rouge lipstick, normally $95, drops to $76.
For an everyday essential, Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+ 125ml is also on the list. Usually $66, it works out to $52.80 with the discount.
The fine print worth reading before checkout
While 20 per cent off sounds tempting, the promotion doesn’t cover every brand at David Jones.
The offer is available to existing David Jones Icon, Premiere and Prestige credit cardholders, as well as new and approved David Jones Premiere and Prestige credit card applicants, subject to the promotion’s terms and conditions.
It’s also subject to stock availability, exclusions and participating products, and can’t be combined with another offer.
The Four Days of Beauty event runs from October 29 to November 1, so anyone planning to shop should check the eligible products and full terms before making a purchase.
Because a beauty bargain is only a bargain if it’s something you actually wanted in the first place.
