What to buy at the Sephora Insider sale
Hair towels, skin tint, my favorite eye brightener and more :)
It’s Sephora sale time! Depending on your Sephora membership status, you either get 10%, 15% or 20% everything at Sephora for the next few days. Here’s some stuff I love in case you wanna try something new! This post was updated on 4/1/25.
Crown Affair Hair Towel ($45)
I have a lot of fine, frizz-prone hair and air-drying it used to take a couple of hours. When I get out of the shower I wrap my hair in this towel and go about my morning. It cuts my drying time down so much that sometimes I have to re-wet parts of my hair to reset my waves. I was an Aquis girlie but I like this towel better. The brand sells the towel in black but you’ll have to pay full price. Also: Crown Affair’s leave-in conditioner is SO GOOD.
Rare Beauty Eye Brightener ($25)
I love the cooling metal-tipped applicator! This eye brightener is kind of watery, but has a nice glowy finish. Definitely use an eye cream and primer under this!
Bobbi Brown Primer ($25)
This is a great, hydrating primer. Ive been using the $25 “mini” size for 5 months. I usually only put primer in areas where I tend to get dry like around my nose, under eyes, chin.
Fenty Beauty Stunna Lip Paint ($29)
This is the only red lipstick you need. You will need to practice putting it on at first because the brush is unlike any other liquid lipstick brush I’ve ever used (in a good way) and it will take you a few tries to learn its ways.
Not convinced? Watch this video of Rihanna applying the red shade and see if you come out alive.
Sofie Pavitt’s entire line ($24-64)
I’ve tried everything in this line but the cleanser, micellar pads, benzoyl mask and moisturizer are constantly in rotation. Sofie’s mandelic acid is great too, but I recently switched to a different brand that offers a stronger mandelic because my skin responds really well to it. The only product I’m indifferent about is the Nice Ice but I’m also not a big ice roller person. If you’re new to this line and not sure where to start, I’d go with the mandelic acid and the moisturizer.
Dieux Eye Masks ($25)
If you don’t already own these, get them on sale. They pair well with any eye cream. I use these eye masks almost every day. Note: Their Instant Angel moisturizer is also lovely, just not a match for my acne-prone skin.
Laneige Lip Mask ($24)
I use this every single day. I was a non believer until I got a small sample tub that lasted me months (you only need a tiny bit). You can really cake it on overnight for quick healing of chapped or sunburned lips. Get some minis to keep in your bag!
Fresh Rose Mask ($67)
I love LOVE this mask and I buy it every year. It’s super hydrating, smells amazing and leaves my skin all glowy and nice.
Shu Uemura Hair Oil ($72)
I use this every single day and honestly cannot live without it. The bottle lasts me about a year with daily use. It’s great for smoothing frizz, defining waves and it smells amazing.
Oribe Matte Waves Air Dry Lotion ($44)
I have tried countless air-dry creams and sprays and this is by far the best. It smells great, doesn’t make my hair crunchy and you only need a little bit! After washing my hair, I wrap it in the Aquis turban for a few minutes, part it and then scrunch in one pump of the Oribe lotion. I start at the ends and work it up to just above my ears and then I just leave it alone!
Supergoop Dry Body Oil Sunscreen ($40)
This is my favorite summer (body) sunscreen!
