One of my favorite times to shop at Sephora is of course during the Holiday VIB Sale. As someone who has been a rouge member for the past 4-5 years, I’ve been able to shop this sale strategically and also not break the bank at the same time. I thought I would provide some of tips for the sale along with the products I’ll be purchasing and some recommendations.

I advise adding the items that you’re thinking of purchasing to your cart early. This will make checking out and not forgetting any items easier.

Tips for Shopping the Sale

  1. When it comes to sales like this, my number one tip is to look for sets. When brands offer sets they tend to be better values. Usually kits will be compiled with a full size item and a few other minis.

  2. This is a great time to get an early head start on holiday shopping for others or to pick up wishlist beauty items for your self.

  3. Another tip that I have is browse the sale/clearance section of the Sephora App. In the past I used to look in this area to purchase small items that would help bring me to free shipping. I glanced over this area a few days prior to the sale and I noticed many brushes and gift sets already on sale. An additional savings makes it even better!


What’s in my shopping Cart!

Olaplex No.3- Price:$28 for 3.30z -I’ve been using the Olaplex No 3. for a few years in my hair care routine. It’s a product that I will continue to purchase and that is why I’m purchasing TWO! If you’re interested in seeing some of my previous blog posts, check them out HERE.

Dior Back Stage Glow Face Palette in Copper- Price: $45- I recently purchased the Universal Palette, but the Copper one is still on my radar. For 20% off, I really think I may purchase it!

Farmacy Honey Potion Mask- Price:$38 for 1.7oz-I’ve purchased this mask about 4 or 5 times already. I’m running low on the one I have now and I’m thinking it’s time to restock. (Previous Review)


Great Picks to Purchase in the Sale!

Skincare

Ole Henriksen Happy Juice Set $69- For the full price you get a whole skincare routine- which includes the full size of the Vitamin C serum and the extras of the eye cream, cleanser, and moisturizer.

Dr. Jart Ceramidin Moisture from Head to Toe Set- Price $48- I’ve tried the moisturizer and sheet masks AND I love both! If you have sensitive skin, dry skin and looking to moisturize from head to toe, I highly recommend this kit.

Laneige Dream & Wonder Set- Price $29- this would make a great gift! I love these lip balms and for the price you get one full size and two minis. The full size in the past has easily lasted me over a year and the minis for several months at a time.

The First Aid Beauty - All That Fab- Price: $49 - This kit comes with 5 products- with 3 of them being full price. If you have sensitive skin or you know someone that is, I would highly recommend this kit or any of the products from First Aid Beauty.

This set comes with 5 of their best mini masks. I think this would be a great stocking stuffer gift or one to gift to your self if you would like to try out the masks without fulling committing. I want to say you would be able to get at least 3 uses out of each of the masks.

Farmacy -Farmer's Market Kit Farm-Fresh Skincare Bestsellers- Price $45- This is such a great kit and way to try out some of the best products from Farmacy Beauty. If you have normal to oily skin, you’ll likely love the daily greens moisturizer.

This set contains all 3 full size products from the Water Drench line. This includes the water drench eye cream, water drench moisturizer and the water drench hyaluronic acid. This would be a great kit for someone who has dry or dehydrated skin.


Youth to The People- The Youth Minis Kit- Price $48

This Youth to the People Mini Kit is a great way to try out many of the staples from the line. I find that their mini’s last a while. This would be great for gifting, but I feel like you would probably want to keep this one!

Indie Lee I-Waken Eye Serum - Price $33.60 I’ve used this eye serum on and off for a year and really enjoyed it. I see that it’s already on sale in the Sale/Clearance section. If you’re interested in trying it, you can apply the additional savings to it.


Hair

Briogeo Detox + Restore Set- Price: $49-I’ve purchased this set along with the shampoo and deep conditioner numerous times. This is a great kit and I think getting this on sale would be your best bet!

Briogeo Merry Multi-Masking Kit ft. Don’t Despair Repair Deep Conditioning Honey Bear Hair Mask- Price $36- I purchased this a few weeks ago at the full price. This kit highlights their limited edition Don’t Despair Deep Conditioner Honey Hair Mask. I basically purchased this as a backup, because I love the honey version of the hair mask.

Sephora has a great range of mini and full size kits that I would suggest checking out!


Makeup

Fenty Glossy Posse Set -Price $36 I’ve picked up one of the Fenty Gloss Sets in the past and I think they would make a great gift for your self or someone else!


Pat McGrath Mini Eye Ecstasy: Eyeshadow Palette- Price:$14- I purchased this set during the Friends & Family Sale. Being that the price was so good, I decided to go out of my comfort zone and purchase the Subversive color-way.

Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Mini Lip Souffle Matte Cream Lipstick Duo- Price $15- These shades and this price is such a great deal before the sale price!


Happy Shopping!
