What to Get in the Sephora Sale (2020)

Sephora’s Spring Sale 2020 starts today for Rouge members, April 21 for VIB members, and April 23 for Beauty Insiders – which means 20% off, 15% off, or 10% off your total order, respectively. Wondering what to get in the Sephora sale? I gotchu.

I’ve put together this post to share my Sephora favorites, and which products I recommend you buy while prices are slashed. Their sale event only happens twice a year, so I wait and wait to stock up on all my holy grail products at a discount, or nab any big-ticket items I’ve had my eye on. Because buying things full-price is for suckas. (Use code “SPRINGSAVE” for your discount!)

My Sephora Must-Haves

SKINCARE + TOOLS

• Caudalie Vinosource Moisturizing Sorbet – My favourite morning + evening moisturizer (and yes, I’ve tried Drunk Elephant).
• Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye – A buttery soft eye cream to moisturize and plump overnight.
• HERBIVORE Blue Tansy Resurfacing Clarity Mask – One of my favourite masks to clear and resurface skin. Full of natural, fruit-derived AHAs and BHAs to gently exfoliate.
• FOREO Luna Play Plus – An amazing tool that vibrates to exfoliate and deep-clean your skin. My face always feels baby-smooth after.
• NuFace Trinity or NuFace Mini – This is definitely a splurge item, but I’ve found it helps contour my face. It’s also supposed to boost collagen production long-term and help delay the signs of aging. #latetwenties

FACE MAKEUP

• Fenty Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation
• NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer
• Fenty Pro Filt’r Instant Retouch Setting Powder
• Bare Minerals in “Well-Rested” – My must-have under eye concealer setting powder.
• Guerlain Terracotta Bronzer – I use shade #03 for a warm (but not orange) glow.
• Benefit’s Hoola matte bronzer – A great neutral bronzer or face contour for light-medium skin tones.
• Kevin Aucoin Sculpting Contour Powder – Literal magic. Great for contouring your nose or jaw because it’s not too warm.
• NARS “Amour” blush
• Too Faced “Candlelight Glow” Highlighting Powder
• Urban Decay All-Nighter Setting Spray

BROWS

• Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz – The best brow pencil product out there. I use the shade “Dark Brown”.
• Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade – I use “Dark Brown” in this too.

EYE MAKEUP

• Too Faced Chocolate Bar eye palette – It’s cute as heck and I find myself reaching for it most often.
• Fenty Snap Shadows – Gorgeous colour story eye palettes to travel with or throw in your bag.
• MAC single eye shadows – Some of my go-tos are “Carbon”, “Cork”, and “Nylon”.
• Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Liner – I have repurchased this probably 50 times over the years.

LIPS

• MAC “Spice” lip pencil
• Fenty “S1ngle” lipstick
• Fenty “Shawty” lipstick
• Sephora liquid lipstick in “Red Velvet” – Gives the most perfect, retro red matte lip.

And that concludes my list of Sephora favorites! If you made a purchase in the Sephora spring sale, let me know what you got (or plan to get!) below.
