ULTIMATE Sephora Sale Guide: What to Skip, Beauty Staples, Hot New Products, Gifts + My Wishlist!

[@Mamasgirlcustom]

We all gotta believe in ourselves the way Lauren believes in her staple products.

LMAO!! 💙

[@juliayk]

You are one of the few youtubers that I will watch for a sephora sale video! normally i feel like im getting shoved products down my throat but i really trust your opinions! and i'm so happy this is an hour long lol i would watch a 2 hour video with you just talking about makeup and fragrance hehe

[@geel1866]

I agree, I used to watch so many of them nonstop, but I feel exactly as you, I now only watch a few of them but only our girl is the ONLY one stating the facts, positive or negative, good or bad, we know she isnt just talking up a product to get us to buy it under her name to get commission, Lauren I feel is honest to the core. By the way, I have no problems with you tubers having sponsors or earning commission with their channel, I am all for that, but it's up to us to purchase from whom we feel comfortable with, buying what we want and only buying what we feel we want to try out ourselves.using our own thoughts to form our own decision, it's nobody to blame if we use info to help us add it to other Info we know to make our own choices. Or just go to stores, there are no shortages of avenues we can use to shop, shop, shop.😊 🌷

[@genevieveve]

This cream coloured sweater is SO FLATTERING on you! It really compliments your skin and hair! 😍😍

[@annepapillon]

Agreed! Wish it had a different neckline though, to be perfect.

[@Heyitskrystal]

When this video started my first thought was you’ve never looked more beautiful! Ironic you feel like you’re in a transitional period skin wise, you look absolutely radiant.

[@geel1866]

Agree 👍

[@tamaradowns2326]

Thought the same! She’s stunning!

[@jeppinator]

Hey Lauren! If you have not seen the Dior highlighter in person, I recommend checking it out before buying! I saw it in stores and literally gasped at HOW GLITTERY it was. I also had my eye on it, but after swatching it and having glitter all the heck over me (lol) I passed just due to it not being versatile enough for me. But if you already ordered, I sure hope it's what you were hoping for!

[@naomilasby7744]

I agree it is a little glittery. As someone who doesn't like *any* glitter on her cheeks, this is literally the only product I make an exception for bc I think it looks so darn nice on the cheeks (and the eyes).

[@notimportant123]

The Dior 4 pan highlighter in universal (not glitz) is so beautiful and 0 glitter

[@joannec9305]

Love how you divided up all the products in this vid, very helpful. Thank you for all the recs and love your energy!

[@tracistrasser7127]

I also have fair hair and skin, and discovered that ABH Dipbrow in Taupe is the perfect eyeliner when I want soft definition, especially with brown mascara. The natural color and drydown make it the best tightliner I've ever used

[@tracistrasser7127]

there's more, lol: the Ash Brown and Granite Dipbrow make a dramatic look really diffuse and easy to pull off. Smoke out the outer corner with your finger, and that cat eye isn't going anywhere for hours

[@ndeluca77]

I haven’t bought a highlighter in years. I was looking at the CT and RB ones and ended up falling in love with the GXVE one instead. It’s so smooth and natural looking. I absolutely love it

[@notimportant123]

glittery?

[@ndeluca77]

No, it’s so smooth and stunning

[@Gloomy_Goober]

You might enjoy the original shiseido synchro skin self refreshing foundation. Just the way you describe what you like and dislike in a complexion product makes me think you might like it.

[@RIPmichael22]

That’s what I use 😍😍

[@iwillstom]

This is the concise roundup with chapters and time stamps that I needed! Thank you.

[@kateaye3506]

Lauren, the brown mascara is a win for you. Softens everything and doesn't take away attention from the rest of your makeup, like a black mascara can do.

[@LEbackstage]

We don't have the savings event in Germany unfortunately. I'd love to stock up on some backups of Sephora Collection products. The sales we get is maybe mostly 10% and 20-25% (maybe 2 times a year) and only on selected products, which is a small selection compared to the US one.

[@kvip23]

I love the Caliray lip gloss! The Patrick Ta foundation is nice, I don't like it paired with the powder but the powder is nice with other foundations.

[@SoulShiner1115]

So glad the Sephora sale is just in time for the new Huda palette. I’m super excited about that palette. The shimmers look amazing, and while I LOVE my ND I Need A Nude palette, I’m happy the Huda palette has more depth. I think they are going to play so well together.

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

I want to take this in. You are always giving solid and reasoned recommendations. Some things are not available in Canada yet. We will have to wait for the Tower 28 in brown. Many lines aren’t carried by Sephora Canada at all. I also want to thank you for all the application tips. Sometimes a great product really isn’t enjoyable if you don’t apply it correctly.

[@mgromz]

Lauren, if you havent tried the YSL Lash Clash extreme mascara, they have a 2 full size deal for $38. It also comes in brown. I use it with a primer and I’m always asked if I have lash extensions.

[@rebeccaprice3296]

I just found your channel this morning! And I’m so happy to have found you! Love your energy and personality! You made me laugh a few times!

[@JoeysMagGoth]

I'd LOVE a review of Violet's Voss cool tones! It's been on my wishlist for a ridiculous amount of time 😁

[@tonya5762]

I have been seeing tons of Violet Voss palettes at TJ Maxx lately and I think they are going for $14.99! My store had the Cool one. Worth a look see before spending $30. Happy hunting!

[@geel1866]

You just getter better each time I watch you! It also helps that you really ,like, and use many products I do.... I'm also glad you have gotten In to skincare I have been into skincare since I was 23 and Iam 65 now, its been a long time love and/or obsession of mine literally that long, but until You Tube there was no release for me to learn more and get to talk and share Info and thoughts about skin care and I sure did research and dig up more then i can even believe.. such as what Ingredients were or what the words even meant...how to layer skincare and at one time that was a huge mixed bag of opinions which applying it in proper order is more effective then not, but at least we still getting it in our skin routine but how deep it penatrates the layers of our skin is what ages the differene through time.🌷

[@rabbiroz3806]

Lauren, this is such a great video. I’ve missed watching you (I’m not an Advent Calendar person - I’d rather pay for what I want than take a gamble on what I already have or don’t want)! I’m waiting for some new eyeshadow videos - maybe “dupe the vibes” of the new HUDA or something like that! I’m really looking for an excuse NOT to buy it!

[@melissap7369]

Yay love this! I trust your recs above all others. BTW did you notice they removed Jo Malone Ginger Biscuit from the site?? 😂 Guess they don't want us to get a deal on that one!

[@MidnightMajesty]

glad I ordered it when the sale started last night at 9pm! will be delivered today :)

[@ErikaJadeLives]

OMG. I just found you channel. You are straight forward and low key hilarious! Thanks for sharing with us.

[@Paigedh1776]

Please do a tutorial on this makeup. You look freaking gorgeous. Your eye look is mesmerizing. I can’t stop looking at it. ❤❤❤❤

[@amie0083]

Lauren, I was worried you would say you tried the Lawless palette and its not good, i'm relieved it is on your list to try as I have had my eye on it as well!

[@joanneblakely2498]

Lauren I recently found your channel and so glad I did. Thank you for such amazing reviews of great products and then what to stay away from. Lauren you are amazing not to mention beautiful.

[@liz_perry]

I have the Ethereal, I Need a Nude, and CT holiday palette. I'm not usually a CT eye shadow fan, so the couple of reviews I watched saying these were not like her usual is what appealed to me. I quite like it. I love all three of these palettes and don't regret having alllll the neutral shimmery sparkle. I also have Space Cowboy. I'm not super into any of the indie shadows I've found so these are all great for me. I can see why if you have a lot of indie alternatives this might not be the thing. I AM now curious about the mini palette with the nude mattes as I quite like this different formula.

[@LisaF_]

I have the Ethereal, INAN, and most recently got the CT holiday palette. I regret nothing, and love them all. I got the CT because of the mattes. I LOVE the formula. I have had the 6 pan Super Nudes for years and it is my favorite thing. It is THE BEST nudes mattes I have. I love that you get both warm and cool tones. I use it all of the time. The formula is very much like the formula in the CT holiday palette. I don’t know why the palette doesn’t get tons of love on line-maybe it’s just old news. If you like the holiday palette mattes, I bet you will love the Super Nudes as much as I do!

[@liz_perry]

@@LisaF_ I bought that Super Nudes and used it yesterday, because I realized Lauren said the mattes were like the new palette 😁 They really are fantastic. I can see why people who love CT's other formulas don't like these palettes, and those are exactly why I do 😊

[@LisaF_]

@@liz_perry Yes! Exactly!! But I love it, it’s so useful, and the size is perfect. It really deserves more hype!!

[@christahodges]

Good morning sunshine 🌞 Anyone else have issues with the app? Lol Happy Friday! I hope you have an amazing day 😊

[@Darima2]

Yeess, error messages and delays but got my order through

[@maloojisloves6586]

I was signed out of my app and on my computer inexplicably. When I placed my order online (I didn’t trust the app) it made me sign in 3 times. Never had that happen before. Got my order in though! ❤M

[@christahodges]

@@maloojisloves6586 I'm so happy to hear you finally got your order in😊

[@quillacranshaw9234]

Yup and it’s still busy! I was on the minute it started and it was glitchy from the start. Now you have to wait to get into the app! Checking out is a hassle with asking to sign in every 30 seconds. It’s a mess

[@christahodges]

@@quillacranshaw9234 OH shoots! "Touch-ups in Progress" 🙃

[@vilde9379]

I always love your lip in every video 🥰 can you do a lip video with some of your favorites? So glossy and pretty.

[@CobraDove1111]

I don't know if you have tried the Clarins lip oil, but they smell like nothing else I have ever smelled...The most similar I would say they smell similar to swedish berries. THEY SMELL SO GOOD I love them (there's a holiday set of four on Sephora). Oh my gosh you just answered my question, I love the coast of concealer under my 50-year-old eyes, but I've been wanting another concealer for all over my face sometimes, and I've been considering the Natasha denona and you just confirmed it for me, thank you! And there is a summer Friday's flavour called brown sugar that is a cool sheer brown that my jaw dropped when I saw it it looks so beautiful, but you didn't have it swatched there I'm surprised

[@LCx829]

I didn’t buy much because the savings isn’t much. Once I paid tax I felt like not much savings.

[@CobraDove1111]

Lauren your makeup in this video is absolutely beautiful!. I don't know if you've tried Charlotte Tilbury pillow talk lip liner, but that is my holy Grail I didn't think I could do coral because I have a cool fair complexion (her lip colors lean warm), but that lip liner lasts even after eating a meal! And it's one of the only liners I find that I can overline my lips, I LOVE it so much. I really appreciate you doing this staple products and showing the best products because I don't buy a lot of makeup, and I just want to buy the best of the best and your skin tone and hair and eyes are similar to mine

[@stephmgreen]

I wish the Rose Inc concealer came in more normal skintone shades.. the two most fair shades are super olive and then the next shade deeper is about 3 skin tones deeper and very peachy. But the formula seems really good 🫤 I feel the same way about the Patrick ta foundation! But every time I go to swatch it on my hand, it just looks like the Sahara desert on my hand.. I’ll be very interested to see how you feel about these products!

[@erinwright30]

What a helpful and well thought out video. Different from anyone else’s. Thank you! You are the real one Lauren!

[@faithbaldwin3060]

Lauren! I have the Kosas brow gel. Taupe is actually Taupe, it's not too warm, but not too cool. Only gripe is that I wish it had more hold, but it hasn't gone bad yet so it seems nicer than other Kosas products lol.

[@heybuddy2009]

I remember when I first started following you like four years ago you recommended the strawberry face scrub and I have used that every single day since 😊❤

[@sarahjones6323]

I bought the small size of the St. Barts Ouai scrub on your recommendation during the last Sephora sale, and I love it so much that I bought the big size this time!

[@jessicadeerly]

I really enjoy that Lawless eyeshadow palette 😊 it has such a soft (& buildable) formula

[@macandfire5477]

It looks really pretty! I would love to check that palette out!

[@jessicadeerly]

@@macandfire5477 I enjoy mine! It’s perfect for everyday 😊

[@zoilalulu3798]

I recommend waiting until Black Friday for any Rose Inc. stuff. I was able to snag the blushes last year for half the price because they had like a 30 or 40 percent off and then my browser extension applied a coupon code and it took it!

[@jackiebarnes3499]

It would be so fun to see your fantasy advent calendar picks! At this point you’re the advent queen in my book 👑

[@jessicalynn8746]

Finally trying the moondust shadows. Extremely late to the game but wasn’t in the single shadow phase til now. They look so pretty

[@yassercastillo2607]

I really wish the mufe set had a beige instead of a wite. Really considering it tho.

[@knitntherapist7520]

Have I mentioned how much I love what’s on your nails?

[@coffeeoniceak279]

Your eye looks are always so stunningly chic

[@audreyheemstra]

Finally trying the MUFE wherever walnut. I purchased Ouai St Bart’s on your recommendation and it is the retreat I look forward to in my shower. TY for your work on this detailed video and for its timely post. You never steer us wrong Lauren!

[@alikat321]

Love the shopping guide ❤ Sephora Canada doesn’t have the I Need a Nude pallet (even though they carry Natasha Denona), so I was very thankful for your code!!

[@2beardo4u19]

I was just perusing sephora and watching your old videos so this is great timing. I’m thinking about getting the ABH Mini Sultry…just seems like such a great deal for a staple/travel sized palette.

[@Magpiegiggles]

I feel like you must be a wonderful friend. You have such a kind and honest vibe. 😊 Listening to you talk makes me feel like I’m sitting with a friend.

[@erica1898]

Great video! Love seeing all the products and hearing your thoughts! I got the new patrick ta eyeshadow palette for the sale. Thought it was a good price with the sale and very different from what I currently own. I have not tried anything from his brand before. ❤

[@nancygonzalez6354]

I’ve been waiting for thisss! Already placed my first order 🙈

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

Me too🙈

[@Winnie_Bago]

The YSL lash clash is so good, so good! Def picking it up during this sale🎉

[@SarahYoshi]

Have this on my phone/headphones, but had to open on my desktop as well to open the links as I follow along haha. Already have some scent rec's in my Sephora cart, thank you for this!

[@EP-hm5ue]

Absolutely agree about young girls wanting Dior. Got my goddaughter the lip oil in mahogany and she was ecstatic!

[@theolivetone2097]

Ok you’ve convinced me to get the cherry blush. I used your affiliate link! Thanks for the recommendations they are always so good. And the yellow chartreuse shadow is absolutely beautiful on you because of your coloring. It would not look good on everyone. Lol.

[@AlicePRabbits]

I’m probably skipping the sale except for maybe a few Sephora brand items. I’m oily too so like to see what you recommend!

[@samzetnick4558]

Always enjoy & value your recommendations Lauren! My #1 products you’ve recommended over time that I’ve fallen in love with are the MUFE Wherever Walnut liner, the ND Super Glow Highlighter, Skylar Vanilla Sky, & the BBW Caramel Pumpkin Swirl candle.😍🎃

[@fannyguerra8173]

I don’t know if you’ve tried it but I loved it. It’s the French Rich Bitch cactus moisturizer. It’s rich and absorbs right into my skin. I would love for you to try it.

[@prettySpiffy]

I have the same peri-oral dermatitis and after a months long breakout/rash, using salt water sprayed on the skin at night actually healed mine!!!

[@Valentina_Salas18]

I've enjoyed this so much !! I had your video playing over the Sephora app while i shop 😅😂

[@CaseyDreyfuss]

I’m obsessed with all your videos❤❤❤

[@Claudia634]

Ipsy has several shades of the Bobbi Brown shadow sticks for $12 rn!! Plus a couple Crushed lip colors, same price

[@Ryanneey]

Oh no. I wish I had used your magic links when I placed my order this morning ❤ I will next time!

[@pappyone6062]

Rose inc are my all time favorite cream blushes. And I try all the cream blushes because I’m a blush freak! I wish they would make little mini 4 blush palettes with all their blushes. 2 different palettes since they have a total of 8. I would be first in line! I’ve deported them into my own palette in mini pans and 8 travel with them. I wish a beauty influencer would recommend that to them. Love your look today. You look beautiful. Thanks for all the recs.

[@alextea1012]

I bought the st barts scrub and it is amazing!!!!!!! Thanks for the recommendation!!

[@Internetaddict69]

I think you should try the estee lauder futuristic? concealer ❤

[@hannahwilborn2755]

Very obsessed with everything you recommend!!

[@beautyxbrielle]

I trust your recommendations with my life

[@yer_grrl]

You should try to get a sample of the Glossier foundation in your right shade! I feel like maybe the too light shade was making it look even more dry or matte on you

[@pinknbling9532]

Oh my goodness this was an amazing video!! Thank you for all your clarification and recommendations it was perfect Cheers and love from Canada 🇨🇦

[@muumol]

I ordered the new Dior backstage cooler toned palette and I’ve not seen any reviews. I hope someone who does KZbin gets this, not sure if it’s your style but it just caught my eye. Also the YSL quint in Stola Dolls ! I’ve seen a few reviews but no one close to my skin tone ,

[@kittykatkountry1317]

Im not a charlotte tilbury makeup fan but i think theyre eyeliners n lip liners hit hard

[@Fallonita]

The Gucci mascara is the best mascara I have ever had heart❤

[@yoshiston3r]

Never stop posting on KZbin please. TikTok is so saturated with ads. I miss just sitting and chilling and listening to you

[@MidnightMajesty]

wish this was out last night when the sale started but I can always place another order lol

[@lunavurt]

charlottes highlighter and summer friday balms are the best of 2023 🔥

[@Darima2]

I made my order, basket was filled up so I heavily edited it down. The only makeup I got was the Sephora favourites Lip set, the Caliray Surfs up mascara duo and the Lys Cream blush trio. Unfortunately the ND I need a nude palette isn't available in Canada online 😭. All the other stuff I got is skincare which of course included the Caudalie Beauty elixir set.

[@ironicallyfit518]

That Dior blush looks absolutely beautiful on you 😍

[@TheGlamorousNest24]

I ordered: Sai Mimi Bkush set, Amika dry shampoo set, UD eyeliner set, Tom ford highlighters, YSL eyeshadow clutch in Stora dollz, YSL mascara set, and the peaches Sephora makeup sponge set, and makeup forever contour powder peanut. I’m going back for skincare and perfume 😂

[@ericd8152]

Pass on the rose inc concealer! Its creasy creasy creasy!!too thick for under eyes, the formula would have made a better foundation

[@LifeChanging22]

Have you seen the Moira highlighters? They are so pretty!

[@heybuddy2009]

I always get mascara as point perks or gift with purchase. I haven't purchased a full size mascara in years 😂

[@Blendandbeyond]

Violet Voss cool vibes is at TJ maxx!!

[@lipstickandlibraries]

the summer fridays trio was sold out at sephora forever but I was able to order it from kohls sephora LOOPHOLE BABY!!

[@kerriwright4593]

Yes! My lashes start looking shitty with mascaras, even if i loved them at first. Mascaras used to last me forever without going clumpy and dry, now they barely last 3 months.

[@amandawyles5372]

Ever try Dior Show? It's my favorite.

[@lizamichelle2431]

Such a great video, thank you so much for all of your efforts! ❤

[@suegreene7841]

Hi Lauren. I love your videos and look forward to them! You are so informative and well spoken and you provide us every bit of info we could want in the comments too! I appreciate it very much! Thanks and have a great day.

[@jaclynkaletka7036]

Love the recommendation always spot on! Speaking of the ouai st barts line I think I found a very! Similar scent, the Sephora shower oil in coconut, im using them together now with the ouai products they go together perfectly

[@lauramau2530]

My daughter got me the Dior lip oil for Mother’s Day and I love it. She’s 27 and I’m 57. Lol

[@marciapeterson3481]

I’m looking for an eyeshadow palette with that includes more shimmer type shadows vs glitter/ sparkles/too metallic. Seems like the Natasha palette might not be exactly right for that? Open to suggestions!

[@lindab5680]

Ugh I'm so sad UD keeps discontinuing its 24/7 glide shades. I found a Mushroom left on UD Canada but can't get a new Smog that I just finished 😞those are my 2 faves

[@taylorswifty12]

Man eater is my fav

[@exploringplacesyoutube]

Another great video 💕 Can you cover the dots on the wall, they move around and distract me 😅🙏🏽

[@tammygarrett9261]

I still want a cool cream pallet. I'm old with wrinkles. Everything in one pallet. They always forget about us grandmas.☺

[@tammygarrett9261]

I got the target shadow sticks but they have shimmer. I love your reviews!

[@melissazink5319]

The mufe set doesn’t exist anymore lol sold out forever as of five minutes ago got taken off of Sephora

[@libbylawless]

I’d love to hear your thoughts on the Lawless pallet! I was also eyeing it during the sale

[@misstbikini]

Thank you so very much, lots of hard work great list 🎉

[@breeskilove4817]

Thanks going to see what you have on fragrance

[@heavaforeva]

I love the tower mascara and no the brown is not yet on the sephora site.

[@christinehottinger5791]

Hey I've gotta say, without pressure, that if you're doing your makeup several hours after applying sunscreen, you may as well wash it off and apply fresh. Personally, I also don't put sunscreen on if I'm not going out in UV 3 or more. The typical sunscreen recommendations these days aren't the most helpful for actual sun protection!

[@shelbyotero2937]

me waiting for fragrance recommendations even though I already watched the fragrance video lol
