In case you haven’t heard, the Sephora VIB sale starts tomorrow! I spent this morning adding whatever items I plan to purchase to my cart, so when it’s time I can easily checkout. This is a sale you don’t want to miss because we buy/replenish makeup and skincare products all year long, but they’re hardly ever found on sale. This is definitely the biggest beauty sale of the year with ev-ery-thing on their site being on sale! I get so many questions about the products I use and love regularly, and nearly all of them can be found on sale tomorrow. For those of you wondering what I will be buying, I rounded them up for you below!
Beauty Blender | This is an everyday beauty necessity for me and the cheaper versions don’t work half as well. I run through these things like crazy and at $20 a pop, I definitely want to catch them when they’re on sale. I’ll buy 3 at a time and they last me quite a while.
IT Cosmetics Miracle 3-in-1 Micellar Cleanser | This micellar water is a game changer. I struggled with acne and over-washing my face (night and day) would only hurt me. Instead of washing in the mornings, I use this cleanser on a cotton round to refresh my face before applying any products. I also apply this IT Cosmetics Secret Sauce moisturizer every single night. It soaks into my skin beautifully.
NARS Matte Lipstick in Catfight | The perfect nudish pink lip for me that I wear on a daily basis. Appropriate for a day at the office or a night out and lasts so long without reapplication.
NARS Bronzer in Laguna | If I had to pick one high end bronzer, this would be it. It applies evenly without any sparkle, unlike some bronzers that can look blotchy.
Becca Highlighter in Champagne Pop | I found out about this highlighter in a restaurant where a woman wearing it caught the corner of my eye across the room when the sun hit her cheek. NO LIE! That’s how popping it was. I stopped her to ask which highlighter she was wearing and purchased mine the next day.
NARS Blush in Orgasm | So tempted to try this blush after Drake mentioned it in a song years ago. Now it’s my one-and-only blush and looks so gorgeous on multiple shades.
Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray | Urban Decay sent me this setting spray as a gift and after one use, I was hooked. It works incredibly well, especially in Houston humidity – which is saying a lot!
Mini Travel Blow Dryer w/ Diffuser | One of my followers recommended this blow dryer to me when I mentioned having trouble packing my difusser for vacations. This blow dryer is God sent and a must-have for curly girls who get the best results with a diffuser.
Drunk Elephant Daily Defense Sunscreen | I was looking for a tinted sunscreen to put underneath my SPF since temperatures in Houston can reach 100+, but I was worried about the white bounce-back a lot of facial sunscreens leave. This SPF blends perfectly with every BB cream and foundation I have and even makes the application look better and smoother! I don’t apply any coverage to my face without mixing it with this sunscreen first.
Drunk Elephant No. 9 Jelly Cleanser | I bought this cleanser in a travel size while in line at Sephora to take on a trip with me so I wouldn’t have to stop at CVS afterwards. This cleanser blew me away. Without using a makeup remover this cleanser had my face squeaky clean without any harsh rubbing or scrubbing. A little bit goes a long way!
Urban Decay Naked Petite Heat | This palette only has six colors but will give you so many options. You can do a light daytime look or sexy night time look. It’s so pigmented and the shades will make any color eye pop.
Dr. Brandt Age Defying Exfoliator | I received this in my Fab Fit Fun box last year and was so impressed. It’s hands down the best exfoliating product I’ve come across. This exfoliator works wonders with just a few drops of water. It’s gentle enough for my super sensitive skin and I can massage it into my skin for 2-3 minutes and once I rinse, my skin looks and feels brand new. A dime size amount goes a long way and you can use it 3 times a week.
Cinema Secrets Makeup Brush Cleaner Kit | I am the WORST of all time at cleaning my makeup brushes and it’s actually pretty embarrassing. It seems like such a task and I dread doing it. This cleanser works so well I can clean all of my brushes in 20 minutes with minimal effort. Definitely a staple underneath my sink!
Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Heat & Humidity Gel | When it comes to curly hair products I love in the summer or warmer temperatures, this is the G.O.A.T. It’s a light-weight gel that really helps control my frizz-prone curls without leaving a crunchy cast.
Devacurl Coconut Curl Styler | One of my favorite creme’s to style my curls. I don’t have to rave about it, it simply works.
Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade | My every day eyebrow fill-in go-to. And the product easily lasts me 12-16 months! I use it with this eyebrow brush.
Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer | This BB Cream is worth every penny. If I want to run around without makeup, I’ll squeeze some of this onto my fingertips and apply it evenly. It’s lightweight enough to not look like I have any make-up on, but evens out my complexion and makes me feel more alive than a bare face. A staple in my makeup bag.
Olapex Hair Perfector No. 3 | When I started my curly hair recovery my stylist was using this to bring my curls back to life. Little did I know I could purchase it and do it at home. If you are trying to nourish your curls, purchase this ASAP. It will undo years of damage in just 30 minutes.
