It’s that time of year where I spend all of my dollars at Sephora. Between the change of seasons and the Sephora sale, I just can’t help myself . Sephora is only second to an old book store on the list of my favorite places to shop.
Right now, the Sephora VIB sale is open to everyone! Even if you aren’t currently a Sephora VIB, you can join today and get 10% off your purchase. All of the details of the sale are below, but now is your chance to get some full price beauty at a bit of a discount.
Earlier this week I shared the best of the Holiday Section on Sephora.com. And while I grabbed a few items from that list, the bulk of my coin during the sale gets spent on the items I will buy over and over again throughout the year.
This is kind of my list of my real holy grail beauty items. From skin care to make up and fragrance, everything linked here are things I would suggest for my mom, my sister, and will always rebuy for myself.

FARMACY GREEN CLEAN CLEANSING BALM
Do I really need to continue going on about this guy? It is hands down my favorite ever skin care product. It is the reason I go into the bathroom every night to wash my face. It is just such an enjoyable product to use and does the best job at removing all traces of makeup and grime at the end of a log day.
SUNDAY RILEY GOOD GENES
Another holy grail product and the one item that really started to transform my skin’s texture. It is a lactic acid treatment that chemically exfoliates the skin. It is great for beginner acid users and long time lovers of all things AHA. Trust me. Go for the big size.
SUMMER FRIDAY’S JET LAG MASK
I use this beaut of a product once or twice a week when my skin is feeling a little tired and dry. It plumps up my skin without leaving my face feeling like an oil slick and doesn’t clog my pores. I use it as a sleeping mask, applying as the last step of my routine and rinsing off in the morning.
FIRST AID BEAUTY RADIANCE PADS
These are a more affordable, travel friendly version of Good Genes. They are great in the mornings to prep the skin for makeup, and sometime I always throw in my bag when going on a plane ride. They leave your skin feeling fresh and smooth but not stripped.
DRUNK ELEPHANT PROTINI POLIPEPTIDE MOISTURIZER
This Drunk Elephant cream is a fall back for me when my skin is angry or inflamed. I know it is going to give me the hydration boost I need while calming my skin down and not adding to the stress adult acne can sometimes put on my skin. This is the moisturizer I use when I don’t know what my skin needs.
HOURGLASS VEIL TRANSLUCENT SETTING POWDER
I was a little skeptical of this powder because it is $$$. But it is the only setting powder I have ever been loyal to. The only powder to make my face look bright and luminous vs dry and aged. I’ve been using this daily for the last six months and still have over half left. A little goes a long way and it is well worth the price tag.
NARS CREAMY RADIANT CONCEALER
I wouldn’t call this concealer radiant, but it is brightening, full coverage, and sits beautifully on the skin. It has all day lasting power but isn’t drying to the under eye area. If I am ever unhappy with my current concealer, this is the one I go back to.
HOURGLASS AMBIENT LIGHTING BLUSH
MOOD EXPOSURE
I have probably featured this blush in every makeup post I have shared in the last year and a half. It is my ride or die, every day, never fail me blush. I would happily forsake all other blushes in all shades to keep this one in my collection forever. It leaves the most subtle glow to the cheeks and is my perfect natural flushed shade.
NARS POWERMATTE PIGMENT
WARM LEATHERETTE
It should come as no surprise that this made my repurchase list this year. I bought it last year during the sale and fell in love with it. The perfect berry color, fully opaque and the perfect fade after a good six (or more!) hours a wear.
MASON MARGIELA REPLICA
AT THE BARBER SHOP
I had to throw this one in, not for me, but for my husband. He ALWAYS smells amazing, but this cologne I bought for him last year is probably one of my all time favorites. I love all of the Mason Margiela scents, but this one just smells like the sexiest, cleanest man on earth.
