A few months ago, I went to Sephora with two friends, and we pulled together an awesome list of products to try. Today, I’m sharing some of my personal favorites with you. Do you have a go-to beauty product? Drop a comment below; we’d all love to hear your recommendations!
A limited-edition kit includes two of my favorites —plump and prep with Honey Halo Moisturizer and nourish dry lips with Honey Vanilla Lip Smoothie. The kit gives you both products, for the price of the moisturizer. I like that the moisturizer absorbs quickly and doesn’t compete with my foundation. You can read the reviews for the moisturizer <here>. Link for the limited edition set <here>
Those of you who have followed me for some time know that I love a good lip stain that stays put but doesn’t dry out my lips. So how does the Sephora Cream Lip Stain compare with the Jane Iredale Matte Lip Stain or the transfer-resistant Outlast Lip Color from Cover Girl?
It’s hard to beat the price of Cover Girl at under $9.00 compared to Jane Iredale at $34.00. My issue with both brands is the lack of color options; meanwhile, the Sephora Cream Lip Stain offers 50 colors and is a great value at $14.00. Plus, it’s closer to the Jane Iredale formula, providing more moisture than the Cover Girl. It’s another option to consider, and right now, VIB members get 30% off with the code SAVINGS—making it a good time to try if it’s on your list.
From my October favorites, I’m loving this lip gloss as a budget-friendly alternative to my favorite Dior plumping gloss. After two months of use, I can confidently say Fenty Beauty’s Gloss Bomb Heat Universal Lip Luminizer + Plumper is a staple in my makeup bag. I adore the product—and the $26 price! Some reviews mention a “heating” or “cinnamon” sensation, but neither my daughter nor I noticed it. With 6 NEW limited edition colors added, this is on promo thru 11/11/2024.
What I love about this product is that it tames, tints, and volumizes brows with one product. Easy to use and not sticky. The mini runs $15, so it’s a great way to try out the product without a big investment.
This eyeliner does it all, from smooth application to impressive staying power. In addition to classic black, brown, navy, and purple, it comes in 33 shades, including matte, glitter, metallic, shimmer, and satin. My girlfriend convinced me to try “Stash,” a stunning army green with golden shimmer. She says it’s effortless yet makes her feel like she’s put in the effort!
On the same Sephora trip with my girlfriends, we each picked up the Nest Rollerball in Seville Orange. We loved that you could wear this scent alone or layer it with other perfumes for a unique fragrance. Plus, it’s perfect for travel or keeping in my makeup bag.
Last week’s October Favorites included my favorite Dior highlighter, in a beautiful limited-edition compact for the holidays <here>. The same product, in 4 shades, is available at Sephora, along with a $14 Sephora Brand highlighter with great reviews and an additional 30% off!
My daughter loves Rare Beauty Liquid Blush, and I’m adding it to the list because a friend recently shared how she uses it on mature skin. She applies the Rare Beauty blush first, then sets it with a powder blush. She previously used Benefit – which she likes – but recently switched to Haus Labs for its “clean” ingredients.
A friend recommended Hourglass’s Holiday eyeshadow palette, saying it’s beautiful. She bought the Lotus palette and thought I’d like the Evil Eye. It’s popular and sold out at Sephora, but I found all three shades available at Ulta.
