It’s almost time for Sephora’s spring sale which means 15% off everything for VIB Rouge. Sephora rarely has sales so this is a great time to stock up on some of your favorites or try out some new things at a discount. Here’s a few more details and a look at everything I’ve got in my cart for the sale:
Once the Sephora 2018 Spring Sale dates are announced, I’ll update this post. It seems like the dates for the sale have been pushed back from previous years, so I estimate that we are looking at mid-April.

Here’s a look at everything I have in my Sephora cart:
KORA ORGANICS – Rose Quartz Luminizer
I love the Kora Organics Noni Glow Face Oil (full review here), so I wanted to try out something else from their line. This Rose Quartz Luminizer seems right up my alley. It’s a tinted balm that also hydrates and prevents dryness. I’ve been enjoying a fresh-faced, no-makeup look lately, and this balm looks like it will give a healthy glow without being sticky and it’s infused with rose quartz!
MILK MAKEUP – Lip + Cheek
I haven’t used any Milk products before, but this lip + cheek color stick seemed like an easy way to bring in some color. I like the idea of a creamy blush for easy blending with your fingers and easy travel. I’m not entirely sure that I will buy this, but it’s in the cart for consideration.
SMASHBOX – Full Exposure Mascara
I’m looking for a new mascara, so I’m using this sale as way to try out a few different options. Currently I use the Lancome Hypnose Drama waterproof mascara, but sadly, Lancome isn’t cruelty-free, so I am looking for brands that do not test on animals. This Smashbox mascara is vegan and cruelty-free, so I’m interested to see how well it works for me.
BITE BEAUTY – Agave Lip Mask
I love the Bite Beauty Agave Lip Mask in the original version, and it’s lasting a long time. I wanted to try it out in one of the other color options with this sale. I was torn between the Maple and the Champagne colors, but I think I’m going with the Champagne. Still not 100% sure though — if you have a preference between the two colors, let me know!
TARTE – Gifted Amazonian Clay Smart Mascara
Another mascara. Like I mentioned, I’ve been using my Lancome one for so long and I love it, but I just can’t keep buying it. This mascara had good reviews on Sephora, but I’ll need to try it out myself.
TOO FACED – Better Than Sex Mascara
This mascara had great reviews and a waterproof version, but people said the waterproof version wasn’t as good. I really like a waterproof mascara because it holds curl well and doesn’t flake during the day. It can be a struggle with removal though, so I’ve decided to go with the “better” formula Better Than Sex non-waterproof version and hopefully I love it.
TARTE – Lights, Camera, Lashes Mascara
I’ve used this Lights, Camera, Lashes mascara before and it was ok; not my favorite. But I want to give it another chance since it also has good reviews, and is cruelty-free and vegan. I’ll try all of these new mascaras and let you know my favorites!
HERBIVORE – Brighten Pineapple Enzyme + Gemstone Instant Glow Mask
Everyone loves a good mask. I chose this one because it’s for brightening/radiance, and there’s tourmaline inside. I am ready to be a glowing beauty. It’s also vegan and cruelty-free.
ANASTASIA Beverly Hills – Brow Definer
I usually restock on the Brow Definer when Sephora has their two sales a year. This is such a staple for me; I use it pretty much every day. The wide tip makes it easy to quickly fill in brows to create a natural and full look.
FARMACY – Honey Drop Moisturizer
I really love this super lightweight moisturizer. The product is so hydrating yet light and recently I’ve been using it as a night moisturizer layered with Josie Maran argan oil and my skin is so soft. I did a full review, and I’m really happy to be restocking during the sale.
TATCHA – The Water Cream
This water cream seemed a little gimmicky to me, but people seem to love Tatcha and this product had good reviews. This cream claims to hydrate and clarifies skin while visibly tightening pores. There’s also 23-karat gold inside. I am not sure if I’ll purchase this, but it does seem interesting.
Have you thought about what you would be interested in for the Sephora Spring Sale? I like to fill up my cart and then make adjustments as I get closer to making a purchase. Let me know if you have any vegan/cruelty-free recommendations; I’d love to try some out!
