Skincare and makeup rarely goes on sale, so when it does, it’s worth paying attention. I mean, we all use it all the time – so why not snag it at a discount, right?
While I love a few products from Beautycounter (Tint Skin Foundation and Countermatch Face Lotion forever!), I don’t love ALL of their products. And even though I get a few of my other makeup essentials from Nordstrom (hey Trish McEvoy eyeliner!), the beauty products I buy there NEVER go on sale.
Enter: The Sephora Sale.
I know 10%-20% off might not seem like much, but it adds up QUICK. Haven’t you innocently stopped by Sephora for one thing and left with $200 worth of makeup before? I HAVE!
So, let’s all take advantage of this, shall we? If you’re a Rouge Member then you get 20% off with code HEYROUGE. If you’re a VIB Member, you get 15% off with code HEYVIB. And if you’re BI Member (Beauty Insider), you get 10% off with code HEYINSIDER.
Don’t know where to start? Keep scrolling to shop through my favorites and a bunch of YOUR favorites! Thanks for those submissions on insta-stories, friends – you’re the best! I also included dry shampoo suggestions since I’m currently in the market for that. I hope all of this is helpful!
my favorites:
Laneige Lip Mask
If you’ve been following me through winter, you know that I am OBSESSED with this lip mask. I even wrote about it in this post because I love it so much! If you deal with chapped or dry lips, this is the best product I ever ever used. EVER. And it lasts forever, so it’s a great one to get on sale! One of you also mentioned that you like their new balms, too!
Bareminerals BarePro 16 Hour Coverage Concealer
I honestly don’t know what I’d do without this concealer. I get really bad dark circles under my eyes, so I love that this is really brightening even when I’ve gotten very little sleep. Can’t recommend this enough!
Kopari Deodorant
Want to get on board with natural deodorants but haven’t found one that works? THIS ONE DOES! Plus, it smells like coconuts… and who wouldn’t want to smell like coconuts?!
Dior Lip Glow
This lip balm reacts to your natural pH to create a perfectly subtle pink shade. It’s also super hydrating, so I love having it with me on days when I don’t want to mess with lipstick!
Winky Lux Watermelon Jelly Balm
Basically a less expensive version of the Dior balm. It’s also a little bit of a brighter pink on your lips, so that’s something to keep in mind. I talk about both of them in this post if you want to read more!
Dr. Dennis Gross Acne Eliminating Pads
When I was breaking out a lot a few years ago, these pads SAVED me. They were the only thing that helped my skin – and I still use them whenever I feel anything forming on my face. Adam and I call them “the magic pads” because they work so well. A must-have for me!
Drunk Elephant Babyfacial
My sister-in-law got this for me for Christmas and I totally understand why this company has such a cult following now. Your skin feels SO smooth after you use this product. You also don’t need to do it all the time, which helps the price seem less scary. She only got me the travel size and I haven’t run out yet because I only use it once every 2-4 weeks.
Vital Proteins
I actually didn’t know that Sephora sold Vital Proteins until a follower told me – but YAY for Vital Proteins on SALE! That rarely happens! If you’re new to collagen, you can read all about what it is and why I take it in this blog post.
your favorites:
Summer Fridays Jet Set Mask
After seeing this on Instagram a million times, I think it’s finally time that I test this out for myself. Especially since so many of you said you love it! I’m also really interested in trying the Overtime mask, too.
Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen
I usually just use foundation with SPF in it, but I’m realizing that I don’t always wear my foundation… and then what?! One of you said that you’ve “tried a million, but this is the HOLY GRAIL.” And that it “wears like a primer.” Sold!
Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Foundation
A few of you mentioned this product, and I’m so glad you did because I had never heard of it! Apparently it’s clean, and really light for a full coverage foundation. I love my Tint Skin Foundation, but I’m definitely intrigued by this!
Glow Recipe Watermelon Sleeping Mask
My friend Johanna said “I’m literally obsessed” so naturally I’m dying to try it now.
Sugar Lips by Fresh
I have this in the Petal color and it’s a great balm when you want a little color, but not too much.
Tarte Color Splash Lipstick in Sunkissed
“The perfect peachy pink neutral for summer.” – Elizabeth (Yes, please!!)
Farmacy Green Clean Makeup Removing Cleansing Balm
Jessica says this is the “best makeup remover ever!”
Smith’s Rosebud Salve Lip Balm
Before I found the Laneige mask, this was my favorite lip balm when I needed a heavy dose of hydration.
Glamglow Supermud Mask
Elise says “It’s the only thing that’s made a different with my skin.” I’d say that’s a pretty great review!
Oaui Haircare
I can vouch for their texturizing spray– I don’t use hairspray often, but this is my go-to when I do!
Sunday Riley Good Genes
A few people mentioned that this lactic acid treatment is cruelty free and works wonders on a lot of different skin types and colors.
Drunk Elephant Products
I know I mentioned their Babyfacial above, but apparently all of their other products are amazing, too!
NARS Blush in Orgasm
“A classic!”
Ole Hendricks Toners
One of you mentioned that the blue bottle and green bottle are great for acne prone skin!
Fenty Beauty Lip Gloss in Fussy
A perfect slightly pink color for everyday.
Tatcha Luminous Dewy Skin Mist
Sarah says “love this for no makeup days or for finishing off a look.” A few of you also mentioned liking Tatcha Deep Cleanse Exfoliating Cleanser and Tatcha Water Cream.
Makeup Forever HD Foundation
“Lasts all day and doesn’t clog pores.” -Nicki
Tan-Luxe THE GRADUAL illuminating gradual tan lotion
Dry Shampoo:
Living Proof
When I asked for recommendations on insta-stories, Living Proof got the most votes by far. So many rave reviews about this one!
“and I swear, I’ve tried them all”
“nothing has ever come close for me”
“I feel like it actually cleans my hair and I love the volume!”
Drybar
Second place went to Drybar’s Detox Dry Shampoo. No one really mentioned any specifics about it, but I’m not surprised it’s great, considering the physical Drybar salons are awesome!
Amika
Amika came in third place, but the people who suggested it were way more passionate about it than the Drybar folks 😂 They say it smells amazing and works really well, with a few “best one ever” and “my favorite I’ve ever used” comments thrown in there!
A few other favorites:
Bumble and Bumble Bb. Pret-a-Powder Tres Invisible Dry Shampoo, Morocconoil, IGK First Class Charcoal Detox Dry Shampoo, and DPHUE Apple Cider Vinegar Dry Shampoo.
Also, Batiste got a TON of votes, but it’s not available at Sephora! That being said, the price is pretty unreal with or without a sale!
Did I miss any of your favorites?
I also kind of want to get these slip scrunchies because they are supposed to damage your hair way less than traditional hair ties. And because I’m so obsessed with their lip mask, I think I’m going to try Laneige Eye Mask, too. Have any of you tried it?
