Your Guide To The ✨BEST✨ of The Sephora VIB Sale Spring Savings Event 2022 💄

ITS HERE! Each spring Sephora does a huge event for their shoppers [only done twice per year] and I literally wait for it! Its the time to stock up on your favorites, try new things, or just buy the things you have had your eye on. Depending on where you are in their Beauty Insider Program, you can save during the Sephora Savings Event.

Here’s how it works: Rouge members get 20% off* 4/1-4/11, VIB members get 15% off*  4/5-4/11 and Insiders get 10% off* 4/7-4/11. Use code SAVESPRING to redeem online, and just a heads up that the code can be used multiple times! ALSO- all members receive 30% off Sephora Collection products during the event. I do a Sephora Haul usually 1x a month [if not more] & I always write in each of those posts to make sure you become a part of their Beauty Insider program because it is not only free, but it gets you deluxe samples, birthday gifts, AND qualifies you for this promotion.

SEPHORA VIB SALE SPRING SAVINGS EVENT FAVORITES

PRIMER

ONE/SIZE by Patrick Starr Secure the Blur Makeup Magnet Primer

FOUNDATIONS

Dior Forever Skin Glow Foundation || [Shade: ‘3.5N’] Okay, this foundation is like…. woahhhhhhh. You guys. I have pretty tricky skin & it has scars & pigment so I have to have some coverage. Well, this foundation is like an all in one. It is medium coverage but can be built up. It is lightweight & ‘glowy’ but dries down to a natural, flawless finish. Now, if you need full coverage – you may not love this but I will hav to say I recommend trying this out. Now, if you are OG for following me & love the NARS one above – use a drop of each and HOLY COW. Talk about insane!! But the Dior Glow on its own is gorgeous. There is an IGTV on my Instagram feed that is filter free in sunlight with me applying this and you’ll see how beautiful it applies & wears.

NARS Light Reflecting Advanced Skincare Foundation || [Shade: Barcelona’] I’ve been wearing this one more often since it was released – it just came out maybe 2 weeks ago?! I was in Scottsdale when it dropped and I ran to Sephora and purchased right away! This is a very light, almost watery formula BUT it actually has good coverage & wears well / long term! I’m not gonna lie, the whole liquidy formula thing worried me that I would not get enough coverage but I personally love it! I will show an application on my stories – so make sure to watch to see these products in action! 

Dior Face & Body Foundation || [shade: 3.5N] Full blog post reviewing this HERE.

Nars Soft Matte Liquid Foundation || [Shade: ‘Barcelona’] I purchased this when it released last year and I can’t find anything that competes with it. It is matte but not dry or cakey. It covers incredibly well – just the smallest drop will go a long ways. It dries do beautifully & wears VERY long wear. I try new foundations regularly and I will have to say- not much can beat this if you want a full coverage, long wearing, matte finish!

CONCEALER

Charlotte Tilbury Magic Vanish Color Corrector || [Shade: ‘Medium’] This is the magic trick for dark circles. The ingredients speak for themselves – they are made to smooth & blur out the under eye are and it works. I am on my second one of these. I probably go through one per year. The medium ‘salmon’ color counteracts the dark circles – correcting them. If you use concealer on dark circles, you can make the under eye area a grey color . If you use this before concealer – you totally bright the area.

Dior Forever Skin Correct Concealer ||  [Shade: ‘1N’] I think I’ve beat this one into the ground with home much I talk about it. Again, there’s an IGTV on applying it and MANY blog posts. This concealer is a MUST. Absolute MUST. Any age. Any skin type. Its incredible. It is not drying, cakey, etc. Covers fully and is long wearing.

DIOR Backstage Concealer || [Shade:’1N’] You guys know I have been obsessed with the other Dior concealer for quite some time – it is hands down one of the best concealers for the under eye area – ever! This one just came out  in the last week or two?! It is a medium coverage, *caffeine infused*, hydrating, long-wearing concealer – that has a radiant finish. It is beautiful!! The brush is very unique – it is more similar to a paint brush.  It is waterproof & creaseproof much like the other one that I love but this one has caffeine in it for dark circles & puffy under eyes.

Bare Minerals Broad Spectrum Concealer ||  [Shade: ‘Summer Bisque’] Another hot item that I talk about way too much but this is so incredible for no makeup looks or just to set or brighten you under eye area! This is one of my holy grail products.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Magic Touch Concealer || [Shade: ‘4’] Okay, so this is ‘newer’ to me. I purchased this on a whim about 6-7 weeks back when it was released. I had not seen any hype on it so I just thought I’d try it and wow. This sucker is FULL wham-bam coverage. 🤯🤯🤯 Like, wow. Now, it is not as creamy and flawless as the Dior one BUT when I am doing a full glam look to go all day- I use this first to highlight / cover dark spots and let it sit while I cream contour.

SETTING POWDER

Givenchy Prisme Libre Loose Powder || [Shade: ‘Satin Blanc’] I am on my second ‘tub’ of this powder – it is high end but it does outperform the others. Not to mention, it smells INCREDIBLE. It is an all time favorite of mine!

FENTY LOOSE POWDER || I really, really love this setting powder and I have for nearly 3 years! Maybe longer actually! So good for dry skin – use it to bake your under eyes if needed. I use a dampened beauty sponge to apply. The shades ‘lavender’ or ‘butter’ are the two I love the most.

BRONZER/CONTOUR

By Mario Soft Sculpt Shaping Stick || [Shade: ‘Medium Dark’] This became my holy grail cream contour back in the fall and I can’t go back! I use one of his brushes to blend it out on my cheeks, jaw, nose, & forehead. I actually really like this for an intense contour.

BLUSH

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush || [Shade: ‘Radiant Magenta’]

Melt Cosmetics Cream Blushlight ||  [Shade: ‘Honey Thief’]

Charlotte Tilbury Glowgasm Beauty Light Wand High Blush || [Shade: ‘Pinkgasm’] I just got this in PR a few months ago and wow. I love I just dot on with the applicator tool and then blend it out by stamping with my dampened beauty sponge! I do use a separate powder blush on top of it to set it more or less but it leaves the most beautiful sheen / glow! This does tend to sell out crazy fast so be warned!

SETTING SPRAY

Benefit the POREfessional Super Setter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray 

EYE PRODUCTS

Natasha Denona Bronze Palette Eyeshadow || This is an oldie but still a goodie! Forever a favorite.

Makeup by Mario Master Crystal Reflector || [Shade: ‘Bronzite’] My old school favorite top coat was discontinued so I started using this and spraying with Fix+ and it gives that same beautiful shimmer on the lid!

NATASHA DENONA Chroma Crystal Top Coat || [Shade: ‘Bronze’] My old holy grail is BACK! 🚨

Stay Lit Liquid Eyeshadows || {shade ‘Champagne Showers’} ^^ Read above! If you are new – my old Sephora posts and makeup routines cover my glitery eye shadow tutorial but they discontinued the liquid golden pigment so I switched to this & prefer it. It is gorgeous alone.

Ilia Fullest Volumizing Mascara || Ummm, I love love this mascara. Really good for volume & thickness!

IT Cosmetics Superhero Mascara || An old favorite but still such a good one!

Makeup Forever Aqua Resist Color Pencil Eyeliner || {shade ‘Graphite’} One of my favorite waterline eyeliners, ever honestly. So smooth & pigmented. It also stays but for longer!

RARE BEAUTY Perfect Strokes Matte Liquid Liner || Hands down one of the BEST liners ever. Literally still on after washing my face while others would come right off with my cleansing balm! It is matte and wears better than any of my other holy grail liquid liners! [This is what I do on upper lid for a winged liner!]

Benefit Eyebrow Precisely, My Brow Pencil Waterproof Eyebrow Definer || Out of all of the brow products I test out each week, this is one I have repurchased. It just works so well for me.

MAKEUP BY MARIO Master Hold Brow Gel || I am a huge fan of laminated brows and have been laminating mine for over 2 years now. The downside is that my brows grow quickly and I don’t have a schedule that allows me to get them done often so I swear by a really powerful brow glue that keeps them from pointing downward. This one is amazing for brushing your brows up and locking them in place. There are only a handful that actually work well on my crazy brows.

Benefit Cosmetics 24-HR Brow Setter Clear Brow Gel with Lamination Effect

 

LIP PRODUCTS

ANASTASIA Beverly Hills Lip Liner || [Shade: ‘Deep Taupe’] HOLY COW…OBSESSED! This is a great collection of contouring lip liners – easy to use and more old school because you have to sharpen but still creamy and just user friendly! I loveeeeee this and I think it is my new holy grail.

Huda Beauty Lip Contour Liner || {shades: ‘Warm Brown’, ‘Sandy Beige’ and ‘Terracotta’} Just a heads up these were out of stock for months and they are finally all restocked

Charlotte Tilbury Lipstick ||  [shade: ‘K. K.W.’] I think I talk about this wayyyyy too much! But it is the best nude shade, formula, etc.

Buxom Plumping Gloss || [shade: ‘White Russian’ & ‘Samantha’] #IYKYK

NARS Afterglow Lip Shine Gloss || [Shade: ‘A-Lister’] STILL SO OBSESSED! This got lost on the plane so I just had to purchase another because the color and formula is amazing and it is also hydrating.

LAURA MERCIER Lip Glacé || [Shade: ‘Rosé’ & ‘Vanille’] OKAY! This is newer to me – something I got in PR recently and immediately loveeeddd! The shade Rose is my favorite. This is a 3-in-1 – lip gloss, lip balm, treatment that works to hydrate your lips – super moisturizing while also just looking so shiny and beautiful. The color stays put and wears really well.

DIOR Addict Lip Glow || [Shade: ‘012 Rosewood’] This is one of the best, more pigmented lip tints! I wore this on my stories one day and so many people commented about it. Its just a tinted glow balm and gives you color but does not look super “makeup-y”.

Laneige Lip Treatment Balm || SSOOOOO GOOD. Looks good on its on but the results are so great. Wear overnight for hydrated lips Or just all day for really beautiful glow & soft lips.

MAKEUP BY MARIO Moisture Glow Lip Plumping Lip Serum || [Shade: ‘Bare Glow’] This is a new release and like Dior it is a tinted, glow lip serum but its minty tasting and honestly just feels so good! I will show a preview on my stories today!

SKINCARE MUST-HAVES

Wishful Yo Glow Enzyme Scrub || I’ve including this in numerous blog posts and I have yet to find anything that can compete with it. It is SO satisfying and the scrub is the perfect texture.

Biossance Squalane + BHA Pore-Minimizing Toner || I love this toner – like a lot. It helps with pore size & I use it AM mostly.

FARMACY 10% Niacinamide Night Mask || OBSESSED. I am obsessed. I use every 3 nights and notice a huge difference in my pores the next day!

CT Magic Night Cream || Mentioned in like 100 other blog posts – these is a one of the few products in my skincare routine that is not medical/pharmaceutical grade. However, my mom, sister, & me go through these little tubs like crazy. We all swear by it. It is a little sticky but if you have dry skin or dull skin – you will wake up and know what we all love it so much.

BODY SKINCARE PRODUCTS

Sol de Janeiro Brazilian 4 Play Moisturizing Shower Cream-Gel || OG favorite for me – but the smell is amazing. I use this in shower to shave my legs, too! I also travel with the travel size bottle of this.

Fenty Skin Butta Drop Whipped Oil Hydrating Body Cream || THE BEST STUFF EVER. This stuff saved my legs this summer & fall.

Donna Karan Cashmere Mist Deodorant

Isle of Paradise Self Tanner Eraser || A must for me! Spray on and let set for 5 minutes and then shower and scrub and it helps loosen up your self tanner / dead skin!

Nécessaire Body Wash & Charcoal Body Exfoliator || Hands down one of the best scrubs ever – but love the body wash too!

Fenty Body Sauce || [Shade: ‘Agave Spice’] SO FREAKING AMAZING! I use this on repeat all spring and summer and even fall and winter. As seen on my stories in Miami, Orlando, Dallas – basically any trip I go on!  Seriously amazing for covering any thing you need to cover or get a tan!!! Its incredible! I use it to hide cellulite & boost my tan.

Fenty Body Lava Body Luminizer

HAIR MUST-HAVES

T3 Micro Curling Iron || 1″- I have been using this for years now – probably 6 years. Easily one of the best hot tools and curling irons ever! I have blogged about these sooooo many time so I won’t waste your time but you can search and you’ll see lots of tutorials and posts. Also there are videos on my Instagram! I also have used the 1.25″ barrel, so if you want a slightly larger one you can’t go wrong with that one either.

Dry Bar Wrap Party Styling Wand

L’Oreal Professionel Steam Pod Styler [Straightener/Wave]  || Both this and the one by GHD below are amazing tools! This one uses steam – there’s a full review HERE & video tutorial on my Instagram IGTV tab.

GHD Max Styler || I also use the 1″ & travel size too – all are very good straighteners. See my IG or Tiktok for a quick video. If I had to pick one of the GHD – I would probably just do the 1″.

Dyson Airwrap Complete Styler

Moroccan Oil Glimmer Shine Mist || SO good! Instantly makes your hair super shiny! I am posting a video soon all about how I curl my hair with THIS new curling iron by t3Micro and you see me use this for the first time – you will see how shiny it is!

Dry Bar Teasing Comb & Brush || I have 3 of these bc they are that good! I use on Soapie too for her space buns each day.

IGK First Class Detoxifying Charcoal Shampoo || Helps remove all of the stuff like hairspray, shine spray, dry shampoo, texture spray, etc that you accumulate in between washes. It removes it and your hair will be SO much softer and cleaner.

SOL DE JANEIRO Brazilian Glossy™ Nourishing Anti-Frizz Hair Oil  || I’m a massive fan of the SDJ scent and when this came out in early January – I purchased the day of… lol! Your hair will smell like this all day AND it is a very moisturizing, nourishing oil that really does help keep your hair from getting dry / frizzy!

AMIKA Top Gloss Hair Shine Spray || Okay, this stuff is a new release and actually works! I find that many shine sprays don’t really do much but this one totally does!

Color Wow Products || The CW Dream Coat, Hydrating Cocktail, & the Root Cover Up Powder are a few products that I constantly repurchase & swear by – I always have people telling me they are so happy to have discovered those three items. The Color Wow Dream Coat Supernatural Spray Anti-Frizz Treatment sold out last year but this is one of the best hair products – ever! My mom and I swear by it. Douse your hair in this while wet after a shower and blow dry and you will have shiny, frizz free hair for weeks. I think it lasts for 8 washes? But I do it anytime I notice my hair is not as smooth & shiny! Also, I love their cocktails for using when in between washes when I am not using the Dream Coat. They are hydrating [or choose the thickening treatment or the strengthening treatment] and really work. This is the same brand that makes the powder you use to fill in hair line and cover grays.  I show this on my stories a lot and always get a million questions!

Moroccan Oil Intense Moisturizing Mask

IGK First Class Dry Shampoo || This is one of the first products mentioned in a Sephora haul and you all bought it out. It is easily the best dry shampoo out there – easily. I have shared this on my blog in my Sephora Sale blog posts for 5 years straight now!

Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Heat Styling Spray || I loveeeeeeee this stuff so much! Like, can not rave about it enough. I have mentioned it a lot on my stories the past 8 weeks or so but its worth it! Helps keep your curls in tact after protecting hair from heat AND it keeps your hair smoother.

JVN Nourishing Shine Drops

KERASTASE Chroma Absolu High Shine Gloss Treatment for Color-Treated Hair || This is new to me but you use this on your hair in the shower and let it set for 1-2 minutes and it is a salon glossing treatment for color treated hair. I overnighted this last week while in Orlando and used it as soon as I got home! It makes your hair feel super silky & smooth immediately after rinsing it out & it has lactic acid in it which is a favorite ingredient of mine actually – for skincare. Lactic acid is a hydrating one and it works on your hair to strength & seal the hair surface making it shiny. I actually really wanted it for the color preserving because   I go see Chrissy for color every 4 months or so, so its really important to me that I’m careful with what I use on my hair so that I don’t lose the color.

Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray || Old school favorite, the smell, the formula, however – I re-purchase because I use it on Sophia’s buns and my roots for extra oomph!
