Here are some product recommendations from a fellow Sephora lover. Fair warning: some of these products will sell out fast.
Skincare
1. The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser
This cleanser will make your skin feel so clean! It does a great job taking off all of your makeup. You can count on it to help with shortening the span of little breakouts as well!
2. The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Masque
This can be used as a spot treatment or a face mask for your whole face. It really helps to shrink the size of pimples and if you ever struggle with those under the skin pimples this mask is great for that too!
3. Frank Body Original Coffee Scrub
I have been using this coffee scrub since I was 16 years old and I don’t think I will ever stop! It makes your skin SO soft, exfoliates little skin bumps, helps with body acne, and cellulite! I will never not rave about this product.
4. Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen SPF 40 PA+++
If you aren’t incorporating sunscreen into your routine… This is your sign to start doing so. I have not personally tried this product but hear nothing but great reviews. This sunscreen is a clean beauty product that comes in an invisible and glow version to help meet whatever look you are trying to achieve!
5. Caudalie Vinosource-Hydra SOS Intense Hydration Hyaluronic Acid Serum
Truly my ride or die. This hyaluronic acid serum is unlike any other I’ve tried. It will leave you super hydrated. As someone with dry skin, you will love this clean beauty product.
6. Isle of Paradise Own Your Glow Kit
If you are looking to incorporate a self-tan into your skincare routine, this is a great starter kit! I love this line because you mix their products with your favourite moisturizer, let the tan develop and turn up with glowing tanned skin without having to wash it off! An added bonus: This is a clean beauty product at Sephora.
HAIR
1. Verb Ghost Weightless Hair Oil
This oil is great for fine hair types! It’s lightweight, adds moisture, and gives a nice shine to the hair.
2. COLOR WOW Dream Coat Supernatural Spray Anti-frizz Treatment
This is an amazing product! It’s a staple in the summertime –- your hair will actually stand a chance with humidity. An added bonus is that this product is a heat protectant, smells really good, and will make your hair really soft!
Everybody needs a clarifying shampoo. This one had apple cider vinegar in it which assists with hair growth, dandruff, and scalp acne. Add this to your routine and use it once a week. You’ll notice an improvement in your scalp health!
4. Briogeo Fairwell Frizz Blow Dry Perfection Heat Protectant Cream
I’m obsessed with this blow-dry cream. Briogeo is a BIPOC company that produces the best hair products. If you want your hair to be protected from heat, feel soft as ever and healthy, look no further. This is also a clean product at Sephora.
5. Briogeo Don’t Despair, Repair! Deep Conditioning Hair Mask
I used this on my hair after I bleached the crap out of it. My sister told me my hair felt like butter and couldn’t believe how healthy it looked. This clean beauty product really is something you need. Case closed.
Makeup
1. Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter
This really does give you the model-off-duty glow. This product has become a staple in my makeup routine and I really don’t think I can go without it now. It is not a foundation but can be layered underneath or used just on its own. The world is your oyster with this product!
2. Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer
Always been my favourite. It’s hydrating, gives good coverage and is a must-have! What’s nice about this product is that you can use it for a natural light look or layer it to be full coverage.
3. Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Contour Wand
If you can get your hands on this product, you are one lucky person! I dream of the day I can try this contour wand, but it’s always sold out. I’ve watched countless makeup tutorials where people have used this product and oh my gosh it looks unreal. Each person that I’ve seen use this product glows, is perfectly contoured and looks absolutely snatched.
4. Patrick Ta Major Brow Lamination Gel
If you’re still on the soap brow trend and want an upgrade, this is a great product to switch to! This gel will keep your eyebrows intact all day and night. Fair warning, you will have to work quickly once you apply this product to brush your brows in the directions you want. The gel dries quickly and you won’t want your eyebrows set sticking up in crazy directions!
5. Tarte SEA Quench Lip Rescue Balm
This product will forever have a special place in my heart. The perfect combination of a lip balm, lipstick and lip gloss. Another bonus, this is one of Sephora’s clean beauty products!
6. Ilia Limitless Lash Lengthening Mascara
This is a product I have not personally used but I thought I should include it since so many people rave about it. The reviews show luscious long eyelashes with no clumps and clean beauty! What a dream.
Tools
1. Sephora Collection Deluxe Brush 10 Piece Set
If you need a good set of brushes, the Sephora Collection is unreal. They’re vegan, good quality, work well with products and are super soft! This 10-piece set is on the more affordable side as well.
2. Sephora Collection Deluxe Brush 6 Piece Set
This is another great Sephora brush set with the same qualities. This one includes six brushes and is perfect for someone who has a simple makeup routine!
You don’t want to miss out on these great products and deals. With exam season approaching treat yourself to some self-care.
