The Sephora Sale Is Back: Here’s What You Need To Buy
Each time the Sephora Sale comes around, you can feel the palpable excitement amongst women.
If you’re new here, the Sephora Sale is a semi-annual event where you can stock up on makeup at a discounted price. Depending on your membership status, the entire store goes on sale…and girls go crazy.
The highest tier of Sephora shoppers, the Rouge Members, get a whopping 20% off everything in the store. Plus, the sale starts earlier — so the items on your wishlist probably won’t sell out before you go to purchase it.
If you’re a Rouge member, this is the time of year when you suddenly find yourself with more friends than usual. Everyone’s asking if they can place a Sephora order on your account.
This weekend, my friends and I went and — all separately — used the same account. The Sephora cashier finally asked which one of us was the real owner — busted…but that seems to be common practice during the sale.
The Sephora Sale is one of the only times you can get top trending brands like Caudalie, Sol de Janeiro, Patrick Ta, Fenty Beauty — and more — at a fraction of the price. Which is why everyone loves to stock up on their go-to’s or try an exclusive new product during this time.
There’s so many trending beauty products out there that it’s hard to know what’s actually worth purchasing during the Sephora Sale. Luckily for you, that’s why I’m here. Here are my top picks to shop during this year’s Sephora’s sale extravaganza:
Sephora Favorites Perfume Sampler Set
This set rarely has good ratings on the website — which originally threw me off. But this actually can be one of the best deals overall during the Sephora sale in general.
You get 18 sample-size fragrances in a cute reusable case. The best part is the redeemable voucher for a full size perfume of your choice. Some of the fragrances are worth up to $180, so you’re saving money even without the Sephora Sale.
And with the sale, you can get a bottle of perfume at about half the price of the original. What fantastic savings, and a creative gift for those who aren’t sure what scent they want.
Caudalie VinoPerfect Ultimate Brightening Routine
Sometimes, expensive skincare is actually worth the price tag. The French seriously knew what they were doing with Caudalie, which is why it’s so highly-rated despite the price.
The Sephora Sale is a terrific time to try a product — or three — that you wouldn’t ordinarily buy at full price. And since Caudalie is rarely on sale, this is a must-buy.
The VinoPerfect line is your one-stop shop for glowing, radiant skin. Say goodbye to dark spots and skin tone irregularities and hello to glass skin. Sets are the best way to get more product for less money, so this one is a no-brainer.
Oribe Hair Alchemy Heatless Hair Styling Balm
Again, my focus during the sale is to buy items that normally I wouldn’t purchase at full price. Oribe is a luxury brand that delivers major results.
Beloved by hair salons, I was coerced into trying this styling balm last month by my stylist. My hair genuinely never looked better and the aroma is divine.
Any of the Oribe products are worth it in my opinion, so get them at a fraction of the cost while you can.
Urban Decay Moondust Space Cowboy Glitter Eyeshadow Quad
The Urban Decay Space Cowboy Eyeshadow went viral on TikTok and I simply had to try it. In a world full of glitter eyeshadows, Space Cowboy sets itself apart cause it looks fabulous on everyone.
This little quad of eyeshadows is super affordable, a wonderful gift for yourself or others, and can easily fit in your makeup bag or purse. It makes your eyes stand out with just a swipe of color.
Makeup For Ever HD Skin Natural Matte Foundation
I’ve been using this foundation for years and always end up going back to it. In a world of glowy makeup, don’t be afraid of the term matte.
This foundation does it all: full coverage to rid the face of imperfections and discoloration, long lasting even through sweaty nights out dancing. When I use this foundation, my makeup has never looked better — trust me.
And, it’s also great for aging skin. People of all ages approve of the Makeup For Ever Foundation, so you know you will love it for a long time.
Sol de Janeiro Beija Flor Body Oasis Set
Sol de Janeiro is a consistently trendy brand. From the cute packaging to long-lasting, unforgettable scents, this brand has it all figured out.
The original Bum Bum Cream is what they’re famous for…but this Beija Flor set gives a luxurious floral scent that’s a teeny bit less sweet than Bum Bum’s pistachio.
The Beija Flor Cream also helps the skin maintain its elasticity by boosting collagen production. Again, it’s a great gift for all ages.
Makeup For Ever Mini Artist Color Pencil Lipliner & Eyeliner Kit
I promise this is the final Makeup For Ever product that I’m going to mention…but you’ll thank me for this one. You may recognize the Makeup For Ever Liners from TikTok or Hailey Bieber.
Bieber popularized the shade Wherever Walnut and celebrity makeup artists often opt for Anywhere Caffeine or Completely Sepia. Keep these liners in your purse for touchups on your eyes and lips anytime throughout the day.
These liners are also long lasting, so no need to worry about your lip liner smearing after you’ve eaten a big meal. This set also makes for the perfect stocking stuffer, which I love.
