The Sephora VIB Spring Sale starts on April 18 for VIB Rouge members and on April 19 for regular VIB members. This is the perfect opportunity to refresh your makeup routine for Spring and Summer as code ROUGESPRING gets you 15 percent off online or in stores. Here’s what you should buy:
1. Murad Invisiblur™ Perfecting Shield Broad Spectrum SPF 30
This primer is perfect for warm weather as its matte texture keeps shine at bay, even if you start sweating ($65).
2. Urban Decay All Nighter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray
I use this product year round to keep my makeup in place all day or for long nights out, but it’s a particular must-have for hot days ($31).
3. SEPHORA COLLECTION Perfection Mist Airbrush Foundation
This is my newest Sephora discovery and it’s perfect for lazy weekends or fast changes, which seem to happen more for me during Spring and Summer. You can literally spray this foundation directly onto your face, blend a tiny bit with a sponge, and go. I’m obsessed. The bottle doesn’t last as long as normal liquid, which is why I don’t use it every day, so grab some while it’s 15 percent off. ($28).
4. Jo Malone London Lush Floral Duo
I love Jo Malone fragrances because they are designed to be mixed and layered to create your own unique scent and they just debuted at Sephora. This set contains Nectarine Blossom and Honey and Orange Blossom ($130).
5. tarte Rainforest of the Sea™ Eyeshadow Palette Volume II
My mom gave me this eye shadow palette as a gift and I love the versatility. The colors can be used for both natural and dramatic looks, plus the pigmentation is solid ($36).
6. Dior Diorshow Pump‘N’Volume Mascara
Admittedly, I have not tried this product. However, if the other Diorshow products are any indication, this one is worth a shot. The squeezable tube allows you to ensure the brush is coated every time, and I’d think it would allow you to get more product out of the tube ($29.50).
7. Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare Alpha Beta® Universal Daily Peel
Even if you aren’t awesome at keeping a consistent skincare regimen, these little pre-soaked pads are easy to apply in the morning. The first one only needs to sit on your skin for two minutes, then the next one stays on all day. The combination removes dead skin, adds anti-aging products, and when used consistently makes a visible difference for me. Try them now at a discount while you can ($88 for 35 treatments).
8. Sephora Favorites Give Me Some Nude Lip™
I bought the bold lip version of this kit around Christmas and loved the variety and shades of products. The nude option looks equally ideal for Spring ($28).
9. COOLA Sport Continuous Spray SPF 30 – Tropical Coconut
The more I read about the ingredients in various sun blocks, the more I think it’s worth investing in organic versions. Coola features certified organic ingredients, the spray goes on easily, and the coconut smell is deliciously summery. Go for the big size during the sale ($36).
10. Living Proof No Frizz Smoothing & Frizz Fighting Travel Kit
Time and time again, I find that Living Proof products are expensive but worth the money. Last summer I used the Living Proof No Frizz shampoo and conditioner any time I wanted to ensure my hair looked perfect in humid weather. I would highly recommend the full-size shampoo and conditioner, but this travel kit is a less expensive way to sample the collection and see what you think ($29).
LOVE this! Have you tried the M61 pads from BlueMercury? I wonder how you feel about them compared to Dennis Gross.
Ooh no I should give them a try!
