CLEAN AT SEPHORA SALE PICKS:
-
- Now is the time to splurge on Westman Atelier on sale. If you buy one thing let it be the Baby Cheeks Blush. My full review of the brand is here.
- This glowy highlighting cream is my go-to primer. Your skin will look AMAZING. It was one of my best beauty discoveries last year – that’s saying a lot! Other favorites by Saie include – this awesome cream highlighter and this lip gloss in shade Easy.
- If you liked my review of Merit Beauty – you can score it on sale now.
- I use the Youth to the People the Superfood cleanser and the Superfood Cream (it has the best matte finish) daily and I also absolutely love this SuperBerry mask – especially in the winter. This is one of my favorite clean skincare lines.
- This Supergoop Zinc Screen is my go-to for every day wear but the brand’s new Sheer Screen is also great (I’ve been testing it the past two weeks).
- If you’ve been coveting the Dyson Airwrap – now is your chance to get it on sale. If I had longer hair I would 100% have already bought this. The tutorials I’ve seen are amazing!
- This foundation brush will blow your mind. It applies makeup so, so well and always leaves my skin looking better. It’s so worth it.
- The Drunk Elephant’s Baby Facial is holy grail for me. Leave it on for 20 minutes once a week and your face is renewed. Goodbye dead skin cells, hello GLOW. The product’s cult status is totally justified.
- The very best matte concealer I have found is this one by Lilah B. I wear shade B.radiant. It is just as good as the NARS one everyone (myself included) loves. Trust me when I say this concealer is really, really good.
- Ilia makes some of my all-time favorite clean products. My favorites include this skin tint which is great for Zoom calls as it is light coverage with skincare benefits (I wear it this way and trust me when I say you will LOVE how your skin looks!), I also love this foundation (I wear shade Formentera), this setting powder (just as good as the Laura Mercier one but with no talc!), this multi-use lip/cheek color (Waking Up and Temptation are my favorite shades), this liquid light (mix a pump with your foundation for the prettiest glow), this concealer (in Chicory), this lipstick (in Wild Rose) and this priming serum that ensures makeup goes on smoothly and stays on. You can see a full review of all Ilia product I love here.
- A clean highlighter I am absolutely in love with is this RMS one which I’ve been using daily.
- If I was told I could only wear one lip color for the rest of my life it would probably be this Bite Beauty one in Brandy (honestly the most photogenic color I’ve ever experience – if I do so say myself – ha! I have this product in 4 shades and with 2,000 reviews clearly I’m not alone in loving it!). You can see me try on a bunch of the shades here.
- This Kosas mascara gives mega fluffy languages! Full review here. I also love their new bronzer. It’s been my go-to for the past couple months since it came out.
- Got maskne? Don’t miss my two favorite cures for it! This Caudalie Purifying Toner and this Acne Serum! Read more about them here. Also in the sale, my very favorite moisturizer for this time of year: this Caudalie SOS cream. You’ll notice an improvement in your dry skin in just one use. I use it nearly every single night. Other clean Caudalie products I love and use regularly include this brightening serum (it’s great for dark spots – I use it every morning!), this brightening moisturizer I use in the morning on no makeup days, this firming serum I’ve already gone through a bottle of this year – it’s great!, this eye balm that’s great for AM and PM, this Brightening Essence every morning, and this detox mask that always sells out and is a favorite for helping clogged pores. If you want to see some of the items in action – check out my Morning Skincare Routine. And don’t miss my full review of Caudalie.
- Want a new face mask to try? I recommend this amazingly soothing and hydrating Honey Potion mask or this Glow Recipe Avocado Retinol Sleeping Mask. I own and love both.
- Indie Lee makes my favorite clean toner and this discovery set is a great + affordable way to get introduced to some of her fan favorite products.
- This charcoal shampoo is one of my best beauty buys of the year. It healed my scalp issues, it smells amazing and makes my hair feel so good. I did a full review of the Briogeo Charcoal Shampoo, too.
- My favorite Necessaire body wash is now at Sephora! I am addicted to the Eucalyptus scent.
ADDITIONAL SEPHORA SKINCARE PICKS:
-
- I love the Wander Beauty Baggage Claim Eye Masks and think they make a great gift for your girlfriends.
- I bought these Tan Luxe tanning drops last summer after seeing positive reviews on Instagram and I have to say it is a summer beauty favorite now. From the same brand, this is my go-to tanning body lotion. I couldn’t believe how well it worked on my fair skin. I had largely given up on tanning products (too streaky/too smelly/too bothersome!) but this one made me a believer again. I wrote about them more here.
ADDITIONAL SEPHORA MAKEUP PICKS:
-
- When it comes to more coverage though, I always opt to wear the Armani Luminous Silk Foundation. It has a cult following for good reason. Your skin instantly looks better and more radiant. I just bought my third bottle of it. I wear shade 4.5. This is the foundation I always wear when I shoot.
- You guys have heard me rave about the beauty of a makeup setting spray before and if you don’t yet use one, you won’t regret buying this one. I’ve been using my last bottle for the past two years regularly and am only just finishing it – it is worth the price and is a game changer during summer when things get hot and humid.
- No other eyeliner has ever come close to replacing my Bobbi Brown gel eyeliner. It is full proof when applied with this brush and it stays on forever. No smudging or smearing like other eyeliners. Believe me when I say this stuff is long-wear.
- This NARS concealer is the best I’ve tried and you’ll also often spot it being raved about by makeup artists and YouTuber pros. It’s that good. It’s super easy to apply and incredibly matte which is why I think I love it so much. No greasy finish like other more-oil based concealers I’ve tried. I use the shade Creme Brulee.
- This Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Powder Duo is the brow product I use to fill in my brows and make them look more full.
- If you love having WOW looking eyelashes like me, I highly recommend this Givenchy eyelash primer. I don’t remember to use it that often but every time I do I am like “I really need to use this more!”
- This Bobbi Brown corrector is god’s gift to blemishes and dark circles. It does wonders. My shade is Porcelain Bisque. I’ve gone through at least 2 or 3 of these and have been using this product for more than 5 years.
- This Blemish setting powder is amazing. It truly blurs imperfections and because it has blemish fighting properties in the formula you’re concealing and treating all at once.
- When I remember to, I wear this Clinique Brown mascara on my lower lashes to avoid the dreaded black smudge and have a softer eye look. I learned this trick from a lot of makeup artists and YouTube videos.
ADDITIONAL SEPHORA HAIR PICKS:
-
-
- I use this Amika anti-humidity setting spray on my curls instead of hairspray. There’s no crunch or residue and it keeps my curls intact and perfectly beach-y.
- Want your shower to resemble a spa experience? Buy this Christophe Robin scalp salt scrub and I promise your life will forever be changed. I’m obsessed with this stuff. (See here, here.)
- This hair towel. This towel is a game changer and was one of the best things I bought in 2018. If you hate blow drying your hair, do yourself and invest in this so your time spent blow drying. (Also key to improve the health of your hair and minimize heat damage!)
- These Drybar Hair Clips are the best. I sleep with my hair affixed with one in a high bun every night to maintain my curls and also use them when heat styling my hair.

What I’m Buying from the Sale:
I just purchased this cream to help with redness I’ve been experiencing, this bronzer I’ve been dying to try, this highlighter stick in the shade Brulee (I own it already in another shade and it’s great!), this blush I’ve heard great things about and I also am picking up a replacement of my most beloved eyeliner.

What did you end up buying from the sale? I’d love to hear!
Love all your clean beauty picks. I’ve been slowly on a mission to switch to clean beauty. I will have to check all of your picks out – especially the Caudalie SOS cream! I’ve transitioned to pretty much all Biossance products – I love them (I hope you do too!)
So glad you enjoyed the post! It was a labor of love to put together 🙂
Thanks for the round up!! If you had to pick, would you go for the Ilia mascara or the Kosas mascara? I’m trying to decide…
Really depends on what you like your lashes to look like! Kosas is mega wattage fluffy lashes and ilia is more natural!
Thanks for the reply! Is there one that you use more than the other? I haven’t been wearing mascara hardly at all since starting to work from home in March, and I want to start wearing it again. I feel like I could get on board with either one, I just want to love it. 🙂
I’d say go with Ilia then- great for every day natural lashes!
Thank you I appreciate your feedback! 🙂
