The Sephora Spring Savings Event is by far my favorite sale ever!! I’m such a beauty junkie and I wanted to share some of my favorites from the Sephora Spring Sale broken down by category. I hope you guys find this helpful!!
MAKEUP
Best of Primers
TATCHA The Silk Canvas Protective Primer: I bought this a couple of years ago and I’ve been a fan ever since! It gives your skin a nice blurred finish and feels good on!
Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer: This feels like velvet on your skin and does amazing under makeup! My absolute favorite.
Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter: You can use this product as a primer, foundation or a highlighter! It’s really a great multi-purpose product that gives you a beautiful glow. I personally love using it right underneath my foundation! I wear shade 4.5.
Milk Makeup Hydro Grip Primer: This is SO good under makeup!! It gives you the perfect texture so your makeup just grips on it like magnet. 10/10 recommend!!
Best of Complexion Products
NARS Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation: This is the OG foundation that I’ve been sharing for 6+ years. Amazing, buildable coverage that is great for all skin types! I wear shade Barcelona.
Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint: If you are looking for something more lightweight but still provides a nice no makeup, makeup look then this is PERFECTION. I would buy this 100% as it’ll be perfect for those hot summer months coming up!! It also has SPF 40 and has great skincare benefits in it too! SPF, serum, foundation in one– I’m sold! Just be sure to powder down if you are more on the normal to oily side! I’m in shade 12.
Hourglass Skin Tint: I can wear shade 7 or 8 in this and it’s been my go-to lately. Such beautiful coverage that still looks like your skin..but better!
Haus Labs Foundation: I just bought this!! I’ve been hearing amazing things about this foundation, especially if you have dry skin.
It Cosmetics CC+ Cream Nude Glow: If you’re looking for a great CC cream, this one is GOLD. It’s so perfect if you have normal/combo or dry skin. It gives you the prettiest glow and has SPF 40. If you have super oily skin, I would stick with their original CC+Cream with SPF50+!
Summer Fridays Sheer Skin Tint: I think this is going to be everyone’s summer go-to product!! It’s stunning on the skin. You guys know my love for Summer Fridays!
Kosas DreamBeam: I’m adding this one in last minute because I just placed an order for it. The before/after bronze from this that I’ve been seeing is WILD and had to give it a try!! I got shade sunlit.
Best of Concealer
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer: My go-to! Hydrating, doesn’t crease, beautiful coverage! I wear shade custard or ginger.
NARS Soft Matte Concealer: Such an underrated concealer. I use this primarily to spot treat any redness or acne scars. Good coverage, easy to travel with and does well on mature skin.
Lancome Concealer: This is a wonderful daily use concealer. It’s the right amount of coverage for every day but still buildable.
Kosas Concealer: This is in my cart this year! I’ve seen good things on TikTok and I’m finally trying it!
Best of Blush
RARE Beauty Liquid Blush: MY FAVORITE LIQUID BLUSH!!! I have 3 shades, Believe being the best in my opinion. It has amazing reviews!! Liquid blushes last longer + give your skin a more healthy, youthful look because of how it radiates on your skin.
RARE Beauty Soft Pinch Luminous Blush: I bought the shade truth and it’s SO good. I will say, because it has the shimmer to it, it will enhance any texture on your skin so please keep that in mind when purchasing. It’s so beautiful though so I don’t mind right now.
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush: Another beautiful powder! This is definitely more blush than highlighter but still gives you a healthy, luminous glow.
Patrick TA Duo Blush: OMG, my latest obsession. I have three shades in this but “do we know her” and “just enough” are my two favorite. You definitely get the most bang for your buck with this duo because of the powder / cream combination.
Haus Labs Blush: The formula on this is insaneeee. So pigmented and I love the packaging.
Saie Liquid Blush: This is one of those blushes that will never run out! One bottle will last you SO long because a little goes a long way. It’s very creamy and pigmented. These almost feel like there’s highlight mixed into it too.
Basma Blush: This is new to me! I just ordered a shade but I hear the pigment is great.
Best of Bronzers
Patrick Ta Duo: I have shade She’s Sculpted. The formula is so good and again, this is one of those products where you get the most for your money because it has powder and a cream in one. Makes it easy for traveling too!
Rare Beauty Bronzer Stick: Blends like butter!!
Glossier Cloud Paint Gel Cream Bronzer: I got this in the shade swept. I think this is a really good, universal product that can be used for bronzer but also even on your eyes. It’s not sticky on the skin but will last all day.
Merit Bronzer: If you are looking for a more sheer bronze, this is it! Don’t let the shades intimidate you. They go on strong but blend out sheer and they are really easy to work with. Definitely beginner friendly!
Benefit Hoola Bronzer: An OG and still one of the best bronzers in the game!
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer: I’ve been using this + sharing it for years now. It’s still my go-to. I have shade Luminous Bronze Light. The way this bronzer hits when the light reflects on your skin is SO stunning.
Airbrush Matte Bronzer: This will last you forever! It’s very pigmented and lasts. When I want a more sculpted, matte makeup look, I top off my cream bronzer with this product and it really locks everything in place.
Best of Setting Powders and Sprays
Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder: I have shade 2 Medium. Sets your makeup flawlessly + doesn’t dry you out! I’m VERY picky about setting powders.
Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray: Lately, this has been my go-to spray. It works just as well as the powder and I’m a sucker for the packaging!
Hourglass Setting Powder: Another face powder that does not dry out your skin and really brightens up your skin as well. 10/10.
One Size Setting Spray: This setting spray went viral and for good reason. I would only use this when you really don’t want your makeup to budge all day, all night long. It’s super powerful!
Givenchy Prism Powder: This is another viral product on TikTok. I got Shade 003. Only downside is that it’s tiny and you don’t get a ton of product in it but it’s actually one of the most fine powders I’ve ever tried. It does such a great job at blurring your makeup so seamlessly and it does brighten as well. Dare I say…it’s my favorite right now?!
Kosas Cloud Set: This is a good every day setting powder that doesn’t leave your makeup feeling cakey. It’s buttery!! It’s kind of like a skin-tone blurring shade. I love using it underneath my contour. It’s easy and works well. Plus, it’s clean!
Best of Eyes and Brows
Ilia Limitless Mascara: I combine this with the Lancome Lash Idole a lot. This doesn’t clump and it helps lengthen your mascara so well! One of my favorites from Sephora!
Lancôme Lash Idôle: This is also In my top 5 mascara list! It’s super dark and great for a night out / moody eye look!
Lancôme CILS BOOSTER XL Super Enhancing Mascara Base: the only lash primer I use!
Rare Beauty Mascara: I bought this mascara last year during the Sephora sale and I end up purchasing it over and over again! It’s one of the best in the game. Doesn’t flake at all. Gives you both length and volume.
Benefit Beauty Brow Gel: My holy grail. I’ve been using this brow gel for over 5-6 years. It’s not clumpy or stiff yet still keeps your brows locked in place all day.
Rare Beauty Brow Gel: Another really great, natural brow gel!
Fake Awake: We all know my love for Tarte Fake Awake! It really does open up your eyes and make you look and feel more awake!
Best of Eyeshadows
Patrick Ta Major Dimension Eyeshadow Palette: This is one of the few larger palettes that have all the good shades that you can use! It’s pigmented and beautiful!
Makeup by Mario Master Mattes: The Neutrals palette is such a good find from Sephora. It has every shade you need to create a natural or smokey look. The pigment is also 10/10. I also love the Makeup by Mario Ethereals palette but it’s not available this year.
Urban Decay Moondust: shade – urban cowboy. If you want that perfect wet eyeshadow shimmer, this is it.
Best of Highlighters
Haus Labs Highlighter powder: Haus Labs has quickly become one of my favorite brands. This is such a beautiful highlighter with a lot of good, every day pigment. Not glittery at all!
Dior Backstage Glow Face Palette: I got this one two year ago and have really been loving it!! It has multiple shades for highlight and it’s the perfect glow with no chunks of glitter!
Rare Beauty Highlighter: LOVE this highlighter!! It’s hard to get your hands on though. The packaging is a bit fragile so I would not travel with it but it’s amazing. My favorite by FAR.
Fenty Highlighter: Another TikTok favorite highlighter!
Dior Glow Maximizers: Dior just makes the most beautiful products and I love the packaging on this one!
Iconic London Illuminator: I use this liquid highlighter at least 4-5 times a week mixed in with my liquid blush. It gives you such a beautiful glow from within.
Best of Makeup Tools
Rare Beauty Blush Brush: Purchasing this one!!
Beauty blender: A great time to stock up on these.
It Cosmetics Brush #7: This is a dual ended brush that is perfect for foundation and concealer. Great to travel with and perfectly packed.
Hourglass Concealer Brush: The angle on this brush is PERFECTION. It fits right underneath your eyes and blends out your concealer without any streaks.
Hourglass Veil powder brush: I’ve had this dual ended brush for years. It’s great for powder and blush and lasts a long long time!
Patrick Ta Sculpting Brush: If you need a good brush for cream and powder bronzer, this is it!
LIP
Make up Forever Lip Liner: Endless Cacao is the best shade!! Make Up Forever Liners are THE best. Lasts all day, doesn’t budge and great quality.
Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk: This one is a cult favorite. Such a good nude on every skin tone!
Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Liner: Another cult fave, this combo with the above lipstick is fire!
Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb: Love this lip gloss! Fenty mastered the formula– it’s not sticky and keeps your lips super glossy all day!
Summer Fridays Lip Balm: THIS IS THE BEST LIP BALM EVER!! I have every single shade.
Summer Fridays Lip Oil: I’ve talked about Summer Friday’s lip oil since it launched! It’s an incredible formula that feels great on the lips with some pigment. Not sticky at all!
YSL Glossy Lips: Another TikTok viral lip product!! It’s luxurious and gives great pigment.
Ole Henriksen Peptide Lip Treatment: I am buying all the shades in this!!!!! I’ve seen it every where and it looks so hydrating.
Hourglass Lip Balm: This is definitely a creamy lip balm that gives pigment like a lipstick but feels more like a balm. Such a unique product!
Haus Labs Lip Crayon: When I tell you these lip crayons stay all day, they literally STAY ALL DAY like through breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Rare Beauty Lip Liner: I also really love the Rare Beauty Lip liners. They are super creamy and glide like a dream.
Saie Lip Gloss: Saie lip glosses are trending right now and for good reason. It’s hydrating and bouncy, and there are a lot of shade options to choose from.
SKINCARE
MOISTURIZER
La Mer Crème de la Mer: Pricey, but amazing during winter! I have super dry skin so sometimes I’ll apply as needed but if you suffer from super dry skin this is gold!
Supergoop Protec(tint): This is something new that I purchased. Review coming soon! 🙂
Tatcha Water Cream: A cult favorite!!
Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask: I can’t live without this!! I’ve been using it since it launched years ago, it’s my favorite and so good if you have dry skin. I use it as a moisturizer at night!
EYES
SERUMS & OILS
The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%: This brand is already super affordable- not sure why their products are amazing?! Again, Niacinamide is my favorite ingredient. It really helps target blemishes + scarring. I’d test this out on a portion of your face because it can be a bit strong and may not be the best for super sensitive skin. I have somewhat sensitive skin and it didn’t give me any issues.
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5: This one is good for all skin types. It’s hydrating but not greasy.
Ranavat Radiant Rani: This oil is incredible + it’s clean at Sephora. It’s anti-aging but also brightening.
TONER & ESSENCE & CLEANSER
First Aid Beauty Pure Skin Cleanser: 10/10 recommend! Great for sensitive skin + also takes off all your makeup! It doesn’t dry you out either.
Paulas Choice 2% BHA Chemical Exfoliant:
HAIR
K18 Leave-In Mask: I give this 10 stars!! It’s a leave-in mask that doesn’t weigh your hair down and visibly works so quickly. Great for damaged hair.
Kérastase Nutritive Hair Mask: If you have super dry hair, this mask is for you! I use it once a week and have been for years!
Kérastase Nutritive Hydrating Shampoo
Dyson Airwrap: Y’all already know how much I love the airwrap!! It’s one of the big ticket items that will sell out quick.
BODY
Sol De Janeiro Cheirosa 59 Perfume Mist:
First Aid Beauty KP Bump Eraser:
SEPHORA COLLECTION PRODUCTS 30% OFF

So thorough. Thanks! I just bought the Supergoop tinted and like it so far. Can’t wait for your review.
