Here’s what to buy at sephora’s beauty insider sale.

Over a few years of skincare obsession and VIB Rouge status, I have a solid list of holy-grail Sephora products that I’ve purchased over and over again. At this point, I’m in a rhythm with the bi-annual Sephora sale in April and November (plus usually a few others!) and rarely shop there otherwise.

My Top 10 Sephora Products

1. Tata Harper Rejuvenating Serum is more like a cross between a serum and a really good, light moisturizer. I use it every morning – I love the scent, and find it deliciously brightening and hydrating.

2. One tub of Farmacy Green Cleansing Balm will last me ~6 months of nightly use. Just a small scoop removes any makeup and rinses clean with neither balm-y residue nor stripped-feeling skin.

3. Dior’s lip balm is both ridiculously overpriced and the best tinted lip balm I’ve ever used. Light, hydrating, just a touch of color and shine. I’ve been repurchasing Pink (yes, usually on sale) for years now.

4. As a mascara aficionado, this Ilia mascara is pretty much the only thing I’ve used in the last year. Between the formula and the comb-wand, it’s perfect for everyday wear – though you’ll want to add a coat of something waterproof or dramatic for their respective occasions.

5. Before using the Laneige lip mask at night, I used to get really dry lips in winter. Suffice it to say I haven’t touched a lip scrub since 2017.

6. Another dry skin saver is Farmacy’s warming honey mask. It’s cozy and effective – gently warming, hydrating, soothing.

7. Is Banana Bright Eye Creme skincare or makeup? Yes. The light texture sinks right in to moisturize, while the sheer yellow color subtly offsets dark circles. *chef’s kiss*

8. At this point, just about all my friends have received a pack of Wander Beauty’s gold eye patches as a gift. They’re fun, make a noticeable difference, and I wish they would bottle the serum so I could buy it. I keep mine in the fridge!

9. Briogeo makes fantastic shampoo and conditioner – and the ‘value’ size will last me about a year(!). I’m currently using the lush Curl Charisma to help out my natural waves, but I’ve tried almost all of their formulas and you really can’t go wrong.

10. Ah, NARS tinted moisturizer – a holy grail if there ever was one. Lovely coverage, but looks like skin and feels like nothing. I apply with a small brush, let it sit a minute, then blend with this one. Pretty sure it’s been ten years since my first purchase!

happy shopping!
