Just a quick post here to say that Sephora now ships to Canada! Ok, so beauty mavens already know this but I only figured it out recently.
Anyway, I haven't bought yet (waiting to figure out the budget) but I did check it out. It's really well done. They ship through regular mail as opposed to UPS. This is good news because anyone who's used UPS to get stuff from the US knows about the astronomical fees they add to the packages. Just to get them over the border. Regular shipping is a 10$CAN flat rate and is waived if the order is at least 120$CAN. Pretty good.
There's no option to see prices in $CAN directly on the site but this is actually pretty good. At checkout, they'll apply the current exchange rate and you'll see what you pay in $CAN. What's good about this is you always get today's rate. They'll also add applicable taxes (only GST in most provinces) and customs fees (those vary depending on the product you purchase; Stila eyeshadows don't generate a customs fee). So all in all, it's very well done. The amount you get charged on your credit card is the total amount you pay and all fees are reasonable.
