Ahh!!! Each spring Sephora does a huge promotion for their shoppers (only done twice per year) and I literally, try new things, or just buy the things you have had your eye on. Depending on where you on it in their Beauty Insider Tier, you can get up 20% off of your entire purchase during their Spring Event.

Here’s how it works: Rouge members get 20% off 4/9 -4/19, VIB members get 15% off 4/13 – 4/19 and Insider members get 10% off 4/15 – 4/19. Use code OMGSPRING to redeem online, and just a heads up that the code can be used multiple times!

Since we can’t go shopping in the physical store this years, all of the deals are availbale online only (with curb-side pickup in Toronto). In order to make this easier & a little less overwhelming, I decided I’d start by gathering the products that have become my “Holy Grail” & that my audience has loved the most.

10 MUST-HAVES SEPHORA SAVINGS EVENT

# 1 YSL The Curler Lengthening and Curling Mascara  \\ I am OBSESSED with this mascara, but you MUST use it in combination with YSL Flash Primer to achieve false eyelash effect.  Flash Primer works to amplify the effect of the mascara by boosting curl, length and volume. This product contains Ceramid R and Panthenol – two ingredients which promise to revitalize and fortify lashes.

Once the Flash Primer dried clear, I applied a good coat of The Curler Mascara. It’s the perfect black. Its amazing curved applicator defines your lashes very precisely, grabbing even the smallest lashes and making them full and long. Well worth those YSL dollars.

# 2 Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Cream \\ You guys know I love Fenty Beauty products ( especially from my Reel”Mom, I am a rich man”) but the cream is also very good. It’s like a gloss formula so it’s shiny and juicy BUT it has more colour so you can wear it alone.

# 3 Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Lip Liner \\ (Shade: “Iconic Nude”) Forever a favorite liner – the shade ‘Iconic Nude’ is my most worn and a go-to but I also love ‘Pillow Talk’. In the my reel I am wearing ‘Iconic Nude’. This liner is smooth and easy to use, and also wears up to 6 hours which is a big deal – also waterproof!

# 4 Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade \\ (Colour: “Blonde” ) Obviously not new news, but this is my favourite brow product on the market and what I have been using it for the past 3-4 years. To set my brows I use AB brow gel in colour blonde also. I’ve tried so many brow products, but this is definitely my two favourite to go brow products.

# 5 BECCA Highlighter \\ (Shade: “Opal”) Ok, stop right here and ADD this product to the shopping cart right now. I SWEAR, this is hands down the BEST highlighter on the market. I’ve tried to so many, but trust me you won’t find better than this product.

# 6 KVD Beauty Tattoo Eyeliner \\ I’ve been using it for years and although others come and go (some really good ones too…the closest/ best alternative I’ve found to date is the NYX Epic Ink Liner) I always go back to the Tattoo Liner.

# 7 Olaplex No.8  \\ I will be honest, I haven’t tried this product yet, but I’ve placed an order to give it a try and see if this is a good product to add to my haircare routine. As per reviews, this is a highly concentrated reparative mask that adds shine, smoothness, and body while providing intense moisture to treat damaged hair. Hint: will do the review ASAP

# 8 Olaplex No.0 and Olaplex No.3 \\ I have talked here quite a bit about my love for Olaplex No. 3. I featured it as one of my top two holy grail hair treatment products. Recently, Olaplex launched a new product, meant to complement No. 3. I was a little skeptical as I love the original so much – would this actually do anything else? I was really impressed, though! Again, this is meant to be used WITH No. 3.

# 9 Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Face and Under-Eye Concealer \\ I am in love with this concealer! The struggle is real to find a concealer which is cross- compatible with other foundations. This concealer works with not only the Armani, but also Tom Ford and the new Gucci foundation! Very very soft to the touch and skin and easy to blend.

# 10 MAC Prep + Prime Fix Setting Spray \\

I use this not only to set my face but also to wet brushes before highlight or eye shade w/glitter. This is a MUST for everyone!

If to be honest, I can go on and on, but this is definitely products that I will be re-purchasing myself.

Love,
