My Sephora Sale Picks and What’s in My Cart

Sephora is having its bi-annual sale and if you’re part of the free loyalty program you get access to exclusive savings. It’s obviously a great time to re-stock on your beauty favorites, but you can also use this sale as an opportunity to try a new product or two at a discounted price.

Rouge members receive 20% off purchases, and starting 4/8, VIB members get 15% off and Insiders get 10% off purchases. All Sephora Collection is 30% off, regardless of your loyalty tier. be sure to use code SAVEMORE at checkout.

I know there are so many products to choose, and since pretty much everything is on sale, it can be difficult to determine which products to try. Rather than a list of every product I own from Sephora, I’ve carefully curated a list of my top favorite Sephora sale picks, plus what I’m looking to purchase for myself.

My Sephora Sale Picks

To get access to the Sephora sale, be sure you’re logged into your Insider account and use promo code SAVEMORE at checkout.

The Sephora Beauty Insider program is free to sign up for and provides you access to special sales like this one throughout the year.

The sale ends on 4/14 and popular items and colors usually tend to sell out quickly, so if there’s something you’ve been eyeing grab it quick.

Sephora has always been a go-to destination for me when it comes to shopping all beauty categories at once. Some of my most-loved and used makeup products I get at Sephora, but they also sell great range of skin care products, perfumes, and even candles.

Skin Care

Dermalogica PreCleanse

I’ve used this lightweight oil cleanser for about 10 years now, and it’s my favorite product from Dermalogica (I used to work there, so I know a lot about the brand). I use it before I washing my face with a foaming cleanser as the first step in my nighttime skincare routine.

Double cleansing is a game changer when it comes to properly cleansing your skin. This oil cleanser melts away dirt and grime so your other cleanser can actually clean your pores, not just your skin’s surface.

Other Dermalogica favorites on sale include this gentle rice powder exfoliant and this foaming face wash.

Sunday Riley

I love Sunday Riley and have used several things from the brand over the years. Good Genes is one of my favorite skin care products, ever. The Lactic Acid in it smoothes the skin and exfoliates to reduce the look of fine lines and dark spots. I use it almost every night.

Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Universal Daily Peel Pads

I like to use Dr. Dennis Gross peel pads about once a week to provide my skin with extra exfoliation. They’re easy to use and help to smooth the skin’s appearance without the downtime of a traditional peel.

Since each peel is individually packaged, they’re a great product to have in your travel toiletry bag when you’re on the go.

Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask

If you’re looking for hydrated skin, this face mask from Summer Fridays has been a favorite since the brand launched in 2018.

I use it regularly to help hydrated tired skin, and I’ll often put a thin layer on and sleep with it as an overnight mask.

Sephora Collection Sheet Masks

Sephora always has great deals on their in-house brand Sephora Collection during any Insider sale.

I haven’t tried any makeup or skincare products from Sephora Collection except the hydrating sheet masks, which I love and like stock up on them whenever there’s a sale.

Wander Beauty Baggage Claim Eye Masks

I use these eye masks to help hydrate and plump under my eyes on tired days or after a day of travel.

Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen

Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen is my favorite everyday SPF to wear under makeup.

It’s a clear, fragrance-free formula that glides on so silkily, you don’t even know it’s an SPF. Bonus: it doubles as a makeup primer.

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask 

I have extremely dry lips and this lip mask is one of the only products that hydrates them for an extended period of time. Even though it’s a sleeping mask, I like it so much that I use it during the day like any regular Lip Balm.

Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm

I am obsessed with Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm. The hype is real, and I now have a few tubes around my house. It’s a thick, hydrating gloss without being too tacky, and all of the flavors I have tried are phenomenal. They smell so good, you’ll want to eat them! It’s hard to pick favorites between this and the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask because they’re both extremely hydrating, but this balm comes in a tube so I keep one in my purse to use hands-free when I’m out and about.

Makeup

Westman Atelier

Given the price point of Westman Atelier, the Sephora sale is a great time to buy this clean makeup brand. The Face Trace Contour Stick is one of my favorite products from them, because it’s easy to apply and difficult to mess up, even if you’re not a contour pro.

Baby Cheeks Blush is a great multi-use product that can be used on lips too, for an instant healthy glow. I have the shade Petal and it’s lovely and delivers great color with just a dab of the product.

I rotate between using the Dewy Foundation Drops and a French brand for my everyday foundation, and I often get compliments on my skin when I’m wearing this product .

Violette FR Bisou Blush

I am clearly a sucker for easy-to-use makeup in a stick, and I love this blush from French beauty brand Violette FR. My shade of choice is Melanie, a pretty and universally flattering coral pink. This blush stick also has a removable blush brush at the other end, so you can clean it whenever you need.

Hourglass Arch Brow Sculpting Pencil

There are two makeup products that I feel naked without, and that’s an eyebrow pencil and mascara.

This eyebrow pencil has a thick tip so you can quickly fill in your brows. It also has a spoolie brush on the other end to brush them or soften the color on any areas where you may have gone heavy-handed.

Tom Ford Extreme Mascara

I always splurge on this mascara during the Sephora sale. I love how black it makes my lashes, and it provides just enough volume for them to look nice and thick without clumping.

Although I like and use Chanel mascara and Charlotte Tilbury Legendary Lashes mascara, Tom Ford Extreme Mascara is my all-time favorite. It’s worth every penny if you too, are looking for thick black lashes.

Make Up For Ever HD Skin Cream Contour and Highlight Sculpting Palette

This is an amazing palette and you can do so much with it! Contour, highlight, and conceal, all in the palm of your hand. you can also combine shades to get the perfect color for your needs. A great travel palette, too!

Hair

ghd Platinum Plus 1″ Styler

This ghd flat iron is what I use to get my beachy waves, AKA my almost daily hairstyle. Smart technology adjusts the heat as you use it, so you never run the risk of burning your hair. Plus, it heats up in 20 seconds so you can style in a flash.

Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray

There are so many products from Oribe that I love to use, but if I had to pick the one that I use the most, it’s the Dry Texturizing Spray. It has a cult following for a reason: this spray provides the perfect amount of grip and volume for that perfect tousled hair look. And, it smells SO GOOD.

Drybar Detox Dry Shampoo

There are a couple of dry shampoos that I like to have on rotation, but Drybar’s Detox Dry Shampoo will always reign superior in my book. It absorbs excess oil, but also adds the perfect volume to roots and second-day hair.

Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer

If you have a lot of hair or thick hair, this hair dryer will honestly change your life. It takes me literally minutes to dry my hair and totally worth the splurge. This hair dryer and the Airwrap always sell out quickly so shop early if you want one.

Davines Hair Care

Davines makes several great hair products. Oi Conditioner and Oi Oil are two of my favorites, and both items I’ve used as part of my hair care routine for several years now.

Whenever I cut my hair short, I use this spray wax on my ends to give them a little bit of texture and separation.

What’s In My Sephora Sale Shopping Cart

With skirt and dress season just around the corner, I’m looking to re-stock my favorite self-tanner and also looking to try these items:

• Lux Unfiltered No. 12 Self-Tanning Drops
• Rare Beauty Positive Light Liquid Luminizer Highlight
• Summer Fridays Jet Lag Eye Patches
• A nude Westman Atelier Lipstick, either in Petal or Pique
