Sephora had their 20% off holiday sale for VIB Rouge November 4th through 7th. I showed you my wish list/ picks for this year’s sale and I can’t wait to show you everything I got! ❤
First off, I didn’t get an email or anything in the mail about this sale. I literally wouldn’t have even known about it at all except for the fact that Sephora always holds a sale in November and I was on the lookout. That was kind of disappointing… and why I wanted to make sure I let all of you know in case you were in the same boat as I was.
Anyway, on to my Sephora VIB Rouge Haul 2016!
I restocked on a lot of things during the sale but I also got a few new items that I am really loving so far. I made my order on that Friday and all my items arrived on the next Tuesday which I was really happy about.
Viktor & Rolf – FlowerBomb Precious Oils
My sister actually bought this for me; thanks Tina! It’s the Flowerbomb fragrance that I love in an oil so I can apply for a more concentrated scent. So far I love this and I am so excited to use it after a nice LUSH bath.
Anastasia – Brow Definer (ebony)
I just ran out of my Brow Definer yesterday so this was perfect timing. I love how easy it is to fill in my brows with this pencil. It’s fast and I love how there’s a spoolie on the other side to blend out the product. I almost wish I had bought more of these…just to have a back up.
This was the first Naked 2 palette eyeshadow that I ran out of. I love this color and I debated buying a new Naked palette all together because the price per shadow was so much better in the palette, but I only wanted this one color. It’s a super pretty shimmer slivery color.
tarte – amazonian clay airbrush foundation (light sand)
Instead of a new liquid foundation, I decided to get a new mineral foundation. This is the same tarte foundation I’ve been getting for a couple years, but this time I got the Light Sand color instead of Light Medium Neutral. Not sure if it’s the right color for me; still playing around, but I may need to exchange it for another color.
Hourglass – Ambient Lighting Powder – Ethereal Light
So far I love this highlight/finishing powder. It’s silky and smooth with a hint of shimmer. I really thought it was going to be reflective/more like a frosty highlighter, but it’s very sheer. I still want a new highlighter, but this is nice for a finishing powder….like the package says. Not sure why I didn’t realize that. Still really enjoying it though!
Urban Decay – eyeshadow primer potion
I like using an eyeshadow primer because I hate when my shadow creases. I definitely notice that this primer does a great job of preventing creasing but also helping my eyeshadows remain vibrant throughout the day. I’d been using small sizes of this that I’d gotten as 100 point perks or with other gift sets, but this is the first full-sized primer potion I think i’ve ever had.
Urban Decay – All Nighter makeup setting spray
I was restocking on this setting spray during the sale and just in time too because I ran out of this today. Seriously, I was holding on to everything I had until this sale! I love how this setting spray leaves my skin looking fresh, slightly dewy and bright…while keeping my makeup in place. When I use a powder foundation, it can look a little matte or my skin can appear dry, but a burst of setting spray just refreshes my makeup and keeps me put together.
This is the primer I had a sample of and really liked. I’ve used it a few times so far and it’s been great. I love the texture/consistency; it’s more like a moisturizer than a silicone-type primer. Leaves my skin feeling silky and ready for makeup.
Lancome – Bi-facil makeup remover
I use this eye makeup remover to help get all my waterproof mascara off. It’s so gentle and just dissolves everything. I love it because removing waterproof makeup is not fun and at the end of the day, I’m not trying to spend forever removing makeup.
Laura Mercier – Translucent loose setting powder
This translucent powder is great for baking under your eyes and just setting liquid foundation in general. I use my damp Beauty Blender to apply under my eyes and set my makeup. I’ve almost run out of this too so I’m glad I could restock at 20% off.
Lancome – Hypnose Drama waterproof mascara
Of course I restocked on my favorite mascara ever. I used to get the regular version, but waterproof is the way to go. I got two of these waterproof mascaras and I am so happy to have a back up on hand. I prefer the waterproof version because it holds my curl and I don’t have to worry about little flaking or transfer onto my skin. And with the lancome makeup remover, it comes off easily when I want it to.
And that’s it! Tag me in your Sephora hauls on instagram; I love seeing what everyone got!
