Guess what’s back, back again? Sephora sale, yes ma’am! (P.S. Could you say that without singing it haha!) At this point, you guys already know I love Sephora – like for real, I’m in there every other week. So, I thought I’d share an updated beauty routine for spring/summer while the products are on sale, in case you’re interested in testing them out! I did a full makeup tutorial (with step-by-step details) on my Instagram stories and saved the videos in my “makeup routine” highlights if you want to reference back.
I’ve used most of these products for over a month now, so everything I am a true fan of. The great thing about Sephora (and Ulta) is that if you purchase a product you don’t love, you can always return it for a full refund, or exchange it for a different item. I’ve done this with their prestige make-up before (including Giorgio Armani, YSL etc.) and have never had an issue. If you’re dishing out cash for high-end make-up you want to make sure that you love it so don’t be scared to bring it back!
Here are my go-tos in order of how I use them:
- Step One: Fenty Beauty By Rihanna: Pro Filt’r Instant Retouch Primer
- Step Two: Nars All Day Sheer Glow Foundation – color: 1.5 Vallaruis and I also really like (and switch off) the Yves Saint Laurent All Hours Longwear Natural Matte Foundation in the warm caramel color
- Step Three: Tarte Double Duty Beauty Shape Tape Contour Concealer – color: 12S (light). This unfortunately is not sold in Sephora only Ulta, but it’s worth the purchase!
- Step Four: Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Contour Wand – color: medium/dark
- Step Five: Fenty Beauty By Rihanna’s Pro Filt’r Instant Retouch Setting Powder – color: butter
- Step Six: Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat All-Over Brightening Pen – color: 1.5
- Step Seven: Benefit Cosmetics’ Hoola Matte Bronze
- Step Eight: Hourglass’s Ambient Lighting Blush Collection – color: Luminous Flush
- Step Nine: NARS Larger Than Life Long-Wear Eyeliner – color: Dark Chocolate
- Step Ten: Benefit Cosmetics’ BADgal BANG! Volumizing Mascara and Dior’s Diorshow Pump ‘N’ Volume HD Mascara
- Step Eleven: Urban Decay’s All Nighter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray
- Step Twelve: NARS’ Satin Lip Pencil – color: Rikugien, rose pink
The sale lasts until midnight on Monday, 5/6 for all beauty insiders! If you’re not a beauty insider, it’s free to sign up and you earn points every time you purchase something. Plus you get access to great deals like this which is amazing because most stores rarely allow high-end cosmetics to be a part of the sale!
Let me know if you end up finding something you like!
