I’m including more about each product below (& providing hyperlinks there, too) including my color or shade info!
FACE MAKEUP
It was so hard for me to narrow down my makeup favorites as I am such a makeup junkie. I am always trying new products & love switching it up. I definitely have more recs if you need them, but here are the absolute top of my Sephora sale favs as of now! I’m starting with face makeup & then will share eye makeup below.
It Cosmetics CC Cream: I’ve been using this foundation as a more full coverage foundation. It’s not too heavy for a full coverage foundation in my opinion. I love that it has SPF 50 built in! I wear shade medium tan.
Highlighter: I started using this highlighter during the last Sephora sale & have loved it. A little goes a long way & the glow stays in place for hours & hours without needing to retouch.
Cream Bronzer: I got this bronzer recently during a sale on this brand’s website in the color Seychelles & I am obsessed. It blends so well & has the most natural looking color!
NARS Blush: I always come back to this blush. I love a few different shades depending on the time of year & how tan I am. I love: orgasm, dolce vita, dusty rose, & behave.
Laura Mercier Setting Powder: This translucent setting powder is my favorite go to. It works great all over your face & helps you from getting any shine/oil.
Ilia Skin Tint Serum: I absolutely love this for ‘no makeup’ or light make up days. It gives such a beautiful glow, but still provides some coverage almost like a tinted moisturizer, but in serum form. I got color 10 porto ferro.
Pillow Talk: I use all of this from Charlotte Tilbury. I use the lip liner, lipstick, & lip gloss. It’s one of my absolute favorite & is a best seller.
Sea Color Splash: I love this Tarte lipstick so much. It’s by far my most used one right now! It’s hydrating & stays on really well. I have the shades: set sail, salt lyfe, 5 o’clock, & colada.
UD Setting Spray: This is my absolute favorite! I use the de-slick one to help with any oil. It helps all of your makeup stay on all day & helps set it in place.
Ilia Multi Use Pigment: This is a one stop shop for cheeks & lips. You can even make it work on eyes! A little bit goes a long way with this. I like shade: before today.
Lip Injection Lip Gloss: I got this in ‘Wifey for Lifey’ during the last sale & love it. It plumps your lips up & adds such a nice shine. It looks great on it’s own or over other lipsticks.
EYE MAKEUP
Below are my eye makeup picks from my long list of Sephora sale favs. I love a good one stop eyeshadow palette & included a few favs. I love being able to use these as my eyeliner, too!
Too Faced Shadow Insurance: I switched to this shadow primer around the holidays & have been loving it. A little goes a long way & it works so great to keep your shadow on & to prevent you getting mascara on the top of your eyelid.
Brow Pencil: I switched to this brow pencil a few months ago & I love it so much. I wear color chocolate or dark brown also works great!
Brow Wax: This gives you sort of the laminated look. Your brows don’t move with this stuff on & a little bit goes a long way. I feel like this little pot will last me years.
Tartelette in Bloom: I’ve shared this palette a few times including in this everyday eyeshadow tutorial. It’s such a great everyday palette! You’ll use all of the colors in it, it’s buildable from day to night, & you can do your full eye make up with just this one palette.
Naked Reloaded: I LOVE this palette by Urban Decay. I can use all of the colors in it & I can do all of my eye makeup with just this palette. It’s so good.
Ilia Palette: this is such a gorgeous one stop shop palette! Especially for the Fall. The colors are the perfect mix of matte & shimmery.
Base Mascara Primer: I use this Givenchy mascara primer & it works so well. I like to do two coats. It makes your lashes longer & thicker + your mascara just goes on so much better.
Lancome Mascara: This has been my go to mascara since I first tried it. Every lash gets coated & I love that I get both volume & length from it. I never have smudges, which is key for me!
Ilia Mascara: I love this brand because it’s super clean + works. I got this mascara a few months back to try & love it. It’s really lengthening, doesn’t clump, & the brush helps separate all of your lashes when you apply. I love a good mascara cocktail or to mix a few together & this one goes really well over the Lancome above.
Fake Awake: I apply this on my water line & it really adds a nice contrast to help brighten up your eyes. It also makes them look bigger & overall I think it just makes me look more awake– hence the name.
Volume Brow Gel: I use this in the mornings after I do my skincare to keep my brows in place or add a little color where needed. It’s perfect for no makeup, makeup days.
Ilia Eyeliner: When I don’t use shadow as my eyeliner, I love this gel one. I prefer the dark brown ‘dusk’ color so it’s not too harsh. It stays in place so great & is a clean product.

SKINCARE
I absolutely love skincare & really feel like it’s the most important thing to invest in appearance wise. A lot of my favorite skincare items from my AM skincare routine & PM skincare routine aren’t available at Sephora, so this isn’t an extensive skincare round up, but a good majority are available & a part of my Sephora sale favs!
Daily Exfoliating Face Wash: I use this in the mornings & the apricot instantly wakes you up! I seriously look forward to it. This helps make sure all of the dead skin cells & build up are off of your skin to promote cell turn over & prevent dull skin.
Jet Lag Mask: This is my go to mask when I feel like my skin is dry & needs a moisture boost. Its amazing!
Good Genes: This was my ride or die skincare product for so long. I switched around trying to find a greener & less expensive option that I felt worked as well with no luck. I read this was pregnancy safe, so switched back to it when I found out I was pregnant & was adjusting my routines. I think it’s helped so much with my melasma & overall skin texture. This is a splurge, but it is an amazing product!
Banana Bright Eye Cream: I heard great things about this & got it to try a few weeks ago. I shared it on my First Impression Friday series. I have come to love this so much! I use morning & night currently. I am so impressed with how this works, how makeup sits over it, & that it doesn’t burn.
Water Lock Moisturizer: This has a subtle orange scent that is incredible. It’s like a giant drink of water for your skin! I’ve been using morning & night since I got it & am obsessed. I’m ordering more now while it’s on sale to have on hand because I know it will remain a staple in my routine.
Resurfacing Mask: This gives you the most amazing instant glow by getting all the dead skin cells off of your skin. I cannot say enough good things about this mask!
Lip Mask: I use this every night. It’s amazing! It seriously keeps your lips so hydrated & prevents them from cracking or drying out. Vanilla is my current favorite flavor, but honestly I love all of the ones I’ve tried.
Resurfacing Serum: I use this Vitamin C serum in the mornings after I cleanse. I absolutely love it! It’s so light & the smell is incredible.
Cloud Eye Patches: Both Charles & I both love these when we feel like our under eyes need a little extra love. I’ll put them on the morning for a bit & feel like they help give a little moisture boost!
Olehenriksen Dark Spot Toner: I used this brand’s oil control toner when I struggled with hormonal acne after getting off birth control & it worked so well for me, so I wanted to try this one to help with my melasma post-pregnancy. So far, so good!
AHA/BHA peel pads are pre-dosed with seven acids to reduce the look of fine lines & wrinkles, acne scars, pores, & shine. I’ve noticed such a positive outcome from using them. I alternate using these & retinol below. I don’t recommend using both in the same night. If you want, you can use the peel pads in the morning & retinol each night or wait about 30-45 mins at a minimum to apply retinol after you use these. See more on retinol below. *I’m not using these while pregnant!
Babyfacial: I use this without fail once a week. It does just what the name says, it makes your skin feel like a baby. It is an exfoliating mask that gets all the dead skin off & leaves your skin feeling so amazing. I swear by this mask! *I’m not using this while pregnant & miss it so much.
A-Passioni Retinol. Retinol is known to balance out just about any skincare concern & be wonderful for anti-aging. Retinol can dramatically improve the look & feel of uneven skin tone & texture, as well as ward off the damage done from daily exposure to UV rays, pollution, or other free radicals. Basically, you need retinol in your life. I use it every other night depending on what other products (like peel pads) I’m using to ensure they aren’t counteracting each other in any way. *I’m not using this while pregnant!
HAIR
My Sephora sale favs roundup would not be complete without my hair & body favs. I have all of my favorite picks including some of my favorite hair tools below.
Dyson Air Wrap: If you’ve been wanting this, GET IT NOW. It’s hard to find it in stock let alone included in a sale. I was shocked it wasn’t excluded! I held off buying this for awhile because of the price tag. I kept hearing how great it was, even from my hairstylist SIL, so I finally caved. I didn’t want to love it, but I do so much. It takes some getting used to & it takes a little more time initially but I can use it on my hair & then not have to touch it or can do a 2 min touch up on days 2, 3, & sometimes even 4 to make it last! It’s amazing. I’ll do a full review & tutorial soon! This is prob my top pick of all my Sephora sale favs.
Bond Repair Shampoo & Conditioner: I love this Caviar duo for helping strengthen your hair. I shared about this awhile back when I was trying to get my hair healthy again! It worked wonders & I still keep it in my rotation.
Oil Treatment: I always come back to this brand for hair products. I love the oil & I love the heat protectant & their hair masque. It’s a tride & true!
Bond Maintenance Shampoo & Conditioner: The one above repairs, this one maintains. I love this shampoo & conditioner duo for every day use to ensure your hair stays strong & healthy. It stays in my rotation, too.
Dyson Hair Dryer: I held off buying this for so long, but finally pulled the trigger around the holidays & it is amazing. It makes me not dread drying my hair & works so well + fast. Highly recommend snagging it while it’s on sale!
Hair Protectant Masque: I used this mask for months before every time I washed my hair & it works so well. I had dryer hair & damage from heat & this helped so so much. I use it less now, but still use it every other week or so & love it.
Volume Blast: This Living Proof dry volume blast is incredible when you need a little extra volume in your hair!
Straighter: I switched to this straightener around the holidays last year & have not looked back. It heats up in like 10 seconds & the heat is automatic based on your hair, so it doesn’t get too hot & doesn’t damage it. Cannot say enough good things about this brand!
Curling Iron: I recently switched to this curling iron & am a huge fan. It heats up in 20 seconds & the heat is regulated on it’s own to ensure your hair doesn’t get damaged. I ordered the 1.25 size too because I love it so much!
Dry Texture Spray: the best when you need a little texture. Especially great for the first day your hair is clean! It’s also great to add texture into your hair before you slick it back or put it up. This smells incredible!
Dry Shampoo: I’ve heard this is incredible from so many! It’s supposed to actually clean your hair, similar to legit washing it. I’m ordering it to try while I can save on it & will report back, soon.
Finishing Cream: I needed a little extra smoothing to my hair after using the Dyson Air Wrap. I got this to try & have been loving it. It does just what I need it to & a little bit goes so far so I feel like this will last me for so long.

TOOLS & BODY
It wouldn’t be a Sephora sale favs beauty roundup without some fun tools & products to take care of your body, too. Some of my tride & true favs are on sale right now!
Daily Cleanse: I take these every day & they help keep your skin clear & glowing. I swear by them, especially when your diet is off track (ahem, hello holidays).
GloPro Microneedling Tool: I love this thing so much. I’ve had it for a few years & have gone through phases of using it regularly or not. It does not hurt at all! It helps generate collagen production & helps all of your products really sink in to work more effectively. This is great to improve the appearance of dark spots & wrinkles + help your overall skin texture.
Necessaire Deoderant: Keeping in my obsession with Necessaire is their deodorant. I love the sandalwood scent, but they are all great. It’s not sticky & doesn’t leave residue on my clothes. Oh, & it actually works for a natural deodorant.
Necessaire Lotion: I love this lotion with Niacinamide in it! It feels so good on your skin & the hydration lasts so much longer than other body lotions I’ve tried. It’s all clean ingredients! It also helps my self tanner last longer.
Beauty Blender: You all know I love neutrals & this little neutral sponge brings me joy when I open my makeup bag. These are a must have in your bag!
Supergoop! Sunscreen: This is my go to sunscreen brand. It’s clean, isn’t sticky, & works so well. I love the spray & the lotion as body sunscreens. I stocked up on so many of these because we use them all summer long!
Necessaire Body Wash: I got this body wash in sandalwood to try & haven’t looked back. It smells so good, is clean ingredients, & I’m super into the aesthetics of the brand. I’m hooked!
YSL Mon Paris: This is my go to perfume. It’s such a beautiful scent & I get stopped by people asking what I’m wearing all the time. I always have an extra bottle of this on hand!
Jade Roller: A jade roller is a must have for puffiness. I keep mine in the freezer & it feels so good to do in the mornings!
By Artis Brushes: These are so amazing for makeup application. They also help you use less product! I absolutely love the foundation one. I also use one for bronzer & contouring on my nose & have used another for applying self tanner.
Nurse Jaime Beauty Roller: I love this for helping to defpuff + sculpt the face. It’s sort of like a workout for the muscles in your face which makes so much sense to do. We workout the muscles in our body to keep them tight so the face should be no different!
Gua Sha: This has become one of my all time fav beauty tools. I use it every morning for a few minutes to help sculpt & lift the face. This helped me so much during pregnancy to cut back on swelling! Obsessed. There are a ton of videos online of how to use it, but I can record a quick one to share how I do it, soon.
I hope you all loved seeing my Sephora sale favs. This is such a great time to stock up on a few things if you need them! I always do an inventory of what I”ll be needing over the next few months & purchase all of it now to save. Feel free to reach out if I can help answer any questions or anything! XO
Love your picks! Thanks for sharing! ❤️✨
