For those disappointed in what the sneak peeks shared ---Absolutely—those early Halloween sneak peeks are almost never the full picture. What typically shows up in May or early June is just a tiny sampling. The bulk of Halloween 2025 goodies usually debut closer to July, so you’re right to hold off on making final decisions until then.

Making Your Semi-Annual Sale List

With May wrapping up and SAS kicking off mid-June, now’s the perfect time to write down:

1. “Must-Haves”
   – Think staples you know you’ll need (e.g., refill soaps, favorite body care)
   – Any seasonal throwbacks (like your go-to Velvet Sugar, Cucumber Melon, etc.)

2. “Maybe-But” Items
   – Fun extras that you only grab if they’re still in stock (e.g., limited-edition PocketBac holders, new Wallflowers)

3. Giftables
   – Stocking up for birthdays or early holiday shopping—SAS is prime time for building a little stash.

By mid-June, walk into the store (or check online) with that list. That way, when the bins fill up, you can zero in on your “Must-Haves” first, then decide if there’s still wiggle room for “Maybe-But” treats.

Waiting on Halloween in July

Come July, you’ll see the full Summerween/Halloween lineup—usually a few new fragrances, candles, soaps, and a healthy dose of spooky packaging.
