Hello everyone! I hope you all are staying safe and healthy during this crazy time. Sephora is currently having their spring savings event and I wanted to share my product recommendations. All details about the sale are posted above. If you would like to know what I recommend picking up, please keep reading…
The first product I HIGHLY recommend everyone picking up no matter what your skin type is-is a primer. The Smashbox Photo Finish Primerizer has been my holy grail primer for a year or close to it. This primer and moisturizer hybrid does something magical to the skin. It creates the perfect base for your foundation and keeps your skin hydrated. My foundation goes on so smooth after using this primer and makes my skin look flawless. even when I am suffering from a breakout, somehow this primer makes my skin look its best. I still recommend using an actual moisturizer before applying this primer to ensure your skin is hydrated. I also recommend using another primer after applying this one that is targeted for any skin issues you suffer from (pore filling, redness, etc). This primer retails for $42, so please do yourself a favor and snag this baby during the sale.
The next product I think is worth picking up during this sale is also a primer. The Tatcha Silk Canvas Protective Primer. This primer received so much hype when it was released and let me tell you, THE HYPE IS REAL! This primer has a putty-like texture and melts into the skin. I apply this strictly to my t-zone where I have larger pores. It smooths out the area so well. A lot of people gear towards the E.L.F. Poreless Putty Primer now because it is a dupe and is only $8 compared to Tatcha’s retailing for $52. I do love the E.L.F. primer but their formula lacks any skincare benefits, unlike the Tatcha formula. If you feel like splurging or you’re jus feeling fancy, pick this primer up girl.
The Huda Beauty Tantour Contour & Bronzer Cream is essential for anyone that is obsessed with contouring. This product is so intense and can be intimating due to how pigmented it is. I love to apply this after my foundation and concealer have been applied. I prefer to blend this out with an almost dry beauty sponge to prevent my foundation from lifting. The end result is so gorgeous. The skin looks so chiseled and tan. I still like to set with a contour or bronzer shade but I use the lightest hand possible. I used to only use this for special occasions like a night out but I have started to use this more often because I am addicted to the way it makes me look. I think everyone needs this in their collection, even if it is just for special occasions. This product retails for $30.
The next product I am so excited to talk about is the Anastasia Beverly Hills X Nicole Guerriero Glow Kit. This glow kit made a comeback about a month ago after its original release in 2017 and the entire world san with happiness. Nicole did her thing with this glow kit! The formula is unlike any other highlighter from the brand and the shades are just so perfect. I already purchased two more when the kit re-released but I plan to buy a couple more during this sale because this product is just that good. Retails for $40.
The weather change has had my lips in shambles. They have been so dry and cracked and I could not figure out why they were. It dawned on me when I was typing this post that I do not have my Pro Kiss’r Luscious Lip Balm. I believe I have talked about this balm on my blog before. The formula is thick but not greasy. It keeps my lips hydrated for hours and prevents them from cracking. I will be picking up a few of these because as of now, this is the only product that works for me and has convenient on the go packaging.
My final product recommendation is the KVD Lock-It Makeup Setting Mist. This setting spray is perfect for a hot day spent all day in the sun. I talked about this product in the past on my blog. I always refer to when I was at Disneyland in over 85 maybe even 90-degree weather. I was, of course, sweating like crazy and by the end of the day, I was shocked my face makeup still looked amazing. I will definitely be using this as the weather continues to get warm. This retails for $29.
Thank you so much for reading and happy shopping! Again, I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. Until next time!
