a fashion, travel, + real life blog
It’s FINALLY here! Sephora’s Spring Savings event goes live to the public today and we made shopping easy for you by linking our top picks from Sephora. Most of these products have been items we have used for years, but some are new favorites! This sale only happens twice a year and EVERYTHING is 20% off. So, we always take advantage and stock up on our must-haves so that we don’t have to buy them at full price later! Shop smarter, right?
1. Tarte Maracujá Tinted Hydrator
We both love Tarte’s tinted moisturizers and BB Creams. We have been using tinted moisturizers a ton during this quarantine! This particular one is a new favorite but we are also a fan of the Amazonian Clay Full Coverage Foundation, too!
2. Beauty Blender Pro
If you’re not applying your makeup with a Beauty Blender you need to start! Just wet it, blot dry, and apply your foundation evenly! This is the best beauty sponge and leaves your foundation and concealer looking flawless. You can also apply your powder with one too!
3. Shade + Light Face Contour Palette
This contour palette has EVERYTHING you need; thus, the name– Shade + Light. It has so many nice shades and blends so well. It’s great quality and lasts for such a long time, even with daily use.
4.Marc Jacobs Highliner Gel Eye Crayon Eyeliner
Loooove this liner. It’s nice and dark and stays put– no bleeding or smearing. Totally worth the money and works best on the water lines (top and bottom).
5. Dior Airflash Spray Foundation
If you’re going somewhere special, you will absolutely love Dior Airflash Spray Foundation! It is medium coverage, but you can work with it and layer for more coverage. It has such a nice flawless finish. You can apply directly to the face for more coverage or onto a brush or BeautyBlender for medium coverage.
6. Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara
We both use this and have for years. It has always made our lashes look incredible. We have and do use other mascaras at times but we continually come back to this classic for a bold, long-lash look!
7. Mugler – Alien
Erin has been in love with this perfume for a long time and after quite an exciting journey to get it, Ashley fell in love too. When we wear it, everyone asks, “What perfume are you wearing?!”
Buyers Note: This perfume has 3 layers to it. It takes the notes at least 20 minutes to bloom and melt together. You may not be a fan right away, but wait it out! Trust us, after 20 minutes, you won’t be able to get enough of it!
8. All Nighter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray
This is the secret to keeping your make-up on and in place for HOURS. Just mist a little on after you’re done with your make-up to set it and forget it.
9. Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Cream
This is Erin’s favorite to use after she uses Drunk Elephant’s A-Passioni Retinol Cream; she also regularly uses the Day and Night Serums.
10. Anastasia Brow Wiz
Ashley absolutely loves this brow pencil and uses it in the color taupe. Erin also uses the Anastasia line for her brows too but she uses the Dip Pomade. Even though Erin’s hair is darker the dip pomades tend to go on darker so she uses taupe as well.
11. Brazilian Bum Bum Cream
Use this on your thighs and well… bum bum to tighten those areas you’re a little self-conscious about. It is such a smooth and effective cream, but what’s even better is the smell. Ahhhmazing.
12. Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder
We both have been using this setting powder for years. The one thing that set the bar is that it is a cream color as opposed to white setting powders so it looks very natural and soft. We use it under our eyes and in the T-zone. We also love the LM Translucent Glow, especially in the summer when we are tan! It works great on top of or under contour and bronzer to soften.
13. Dr. Brandt No More Baggage
This is perfect after a restless night of sleep. Just apply this a few minutes before you begin your makeup routine and you will see the bags under your eyes disappear! It’s like magic! We first received this in our FabFitFun boxes and since then, we’ve been buying it on our own!
14. Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion
This is just like a 2-minute facial! It’s easily the best microdermabrasion scrub on the market, which is probably why it comes with a hefty price tag. It polishes the skin and removes dead skin cells, so it immediately leaves our skin looking brighter and more radiant!
15. Too Faced Hangover Replenishing Face Primer
We both have use and love this product. This feels SO refreshing on your skin– like a drink of water for your face! Just apply prior to makeup. The main ingredient is coconut water, so not only is it replenishing, but it smells great! AND this amazing primer will help your make-up last all day.
16. Drunk Elephant Baby Facial
Ashley’s go-to at least once a week. She loves it so much, she wrote an ENTIRE blog post about it, which you can read here. If you’re looking for even skin tone and a mask that will actually do something, look no further. It’s no wonder it’s one of Sephora’s top-selling items with amazing 5-star reviews.
We know that it can be a bit overwhelming trying to decide what to purchase and what to try; we hope we made shopping a little easier!
