If you haven’t heard by now, the Sephora Spring Savings Event has arrived and is now open to all beauty Insiders! You can receive 10% off your entire purchase (using code ‘SPRINGSAVE‘) which actually does add up, making this a great opportunity to try out new products, or stock up on some cult-classics. Chances are, if you’ve ever stepped foot in a Sephora you know how overwhelming it can be (not to mention, expensive!) So I’ve done the work for you and have rounded up 10 staple products in my beauty arsenal- most of these are under $50!
GLOW RECIPE WATERMELON ULTRA-FINE MIST $28 // This is my favorite product for refreshing my make-up! The mist is ultra-fine, which means that it doesn’t settle on your face in large droplets like some other setting sprays on the market. This leaves skin looking and feeling radiant, and hydrates your skin throughout the day- even with make-up on.
CHARLOTTE TILBURY CHEAT LINER SHADE ‘PILLOWTALK’ $22 // The perfect nude lipliner! If you’re a fan of overdrawing your lips, this is such a great liner because this formula smooths over lips so seamlessly, doesn’t feather, and lasts forever!
CHARLOTTE TILBURY FLAWLESS FILTER $44 // I’d heard about this product for a while and finally took the plunge to try it out- I’M SO GLAD I DID. I wear this with and without make-up to provide a radiant glow and blur out imperfections. It’s a major completion booster that works to illuminate skin and make pores appear smaller.
MILK MAKEUP LIP + CHEEK STICK SHADE ‘DUSTY ROSE’ $28 // I love wearing blush to bring a youthful glow to my skin, and always prefer a more natural cheek color. This cream-based formula is absolutely perfect. It’s buildable, so you can add as much or little as you like, and is formulated with Mango Butter, Avocado Oil, and Apricot Oil to help hydrate the skin and blend seamlessly. Like most other Milk Makeup products, it’s vegan and cruelty-free.
SMASHBOX PORE MINIMIZING PRIMER $39 // My favorite primer of ALL.TIME. Foundation looks exponentially better when you apply this first. This primer has an oil-free formulation that mattifies instantly reducing the look of flaws and pores for up to eight hours.
GRANDE LASH GROWTH SERUM $65 // After having lash extensions, I did notice a bit of damage to my natural lashes. This is the only serum I’ve ever tried (it has 79K loves on sephora.com!) and I’ve noticed a BIG DIFFERENCE in the length and thickness of my natural lashes. I apply every evening before bed and I absolutely think it’s worth the money. If you want to try it out first, they do sell a mini option that should last you about six weeks.
STILA WATERPROOF LIQUID EYELINER $22 // I’ve been using this liner for years and it’s what I use to create the perfect wing. If you’ve ever had trouble applying liquid eyeliner, I’d recommend giving this a try. It has an ultra-fine tip that allows you to get a precise line and it stays on all day!
LANEIGE LIP SLEEPING MASK $26 // If you’re a fan of matte lipsticks like I am, the key is making sure your lips are moisturized and smooth before applying. This mask is infused with Vitamin C, and hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture and reduce dryness/flakiness. The best part is that it does all the work while you’re sleeping, so you wake up with kissably soft lips!
HUDA BEAUTY MATTE LIPSTICK SHADE ‘BOARD MEETING’ $25 // I can’t say enough great things about this lipstick. I love matte lipsticks, but the formulas can be drying and flakey. This lipstick is so moisturizing and the shade ‘board meeting’ is the perfect nude with a brown undertone.
OLAPLEX HAIR PERFECTOR NO. 3 $56 // A concentrated treatment works with every hair type! It works to strengthens the hair from within, reducing breakage and improving its look and feel. This saves your hair from existing damage and helps to repair the structure of each strand!
