You know, I have done countless Sephora sale recommendations posts on here. But it’s been so long since I did an actual haul on what I picked up during one of these sales. And with my order having now arrived, I thought it was high time to share what I picked up. Spoiler warning, this haul is small but very complexion product heavy (I blew my lip product load during the last sale, thank you Laneige). But all of these products are ones that I have had my eye on for a while, hoping for a good sale, and have been planning on reviewing. So, let’s get into this haul!
We’ll start with the two foundations that I picked out. I finally broke and bought the ESTEE LAUDER DOUBLE WEAR FOUNDATION – $83.00. I know, I know. How is it possible that I, someone who lives three inches from the surface of the sun, has never tried Double Wear? Well, it’s kind of like how it took me 34 years to try Nars Sheer Glow. There are too many good foundations on the market, and not enough time or face to try them all. But seeing as this one recently had a revamp that has had polarising opinions online (which is my favourite kind of opinion), I figured it was finally time.
The other foundation I picked up was the LYS BEAUTY TRIPLE FIX SKIN TINT STICK – $46.00. LYS as a brand is one that I don’t have much experience with. But they make one of my favourite cream bronzer sticks on the market. So, if the formula of this skin tint stick is as good as the cream bronzer is? I’m probably in business. Stay tuned for both of these reviews throughout the year
Staying with the two of’s, I picked up two new to me concealers. I’ve heard and seen a ton of positive buzz about the PATRICK TA MAJOR SKIN CONCEALER – $59.00 online. Particularly from people in my specific age demographic. And the HOURGLASS VANISH AIRBRUSH CONCEALER – $66.00 is widely beloved in general. And lord knows I wasn’t passing up on 20% off Hourglass. This whole haul could have very easily been Hourglass if I had less restraint.
The final thing I picked up from this sale was the new RARE BEAUTY WARM WISHES SOFT MATTE POWDER BRONZER – $51.00. Now this one was interesting. I originally had zero plans on picking up this bronzer until I was able to see it in person. The shades online all look very warm for my taste. But seeing as I don’t know when I’m next going to be able to walk into a Sephora (unless one opens in Townsville in the next 3-6 months), I bit the bullet and picked up shade 3, Warmed Up. And good call on my part as it’s a shade that I will happily use. It’s the right size of warm without venturing too far into orange territory.
And that is a wrap on my Sephora haul! It was just a baby one. But I’m so excited to get stuck in and try everything. Let me know if you picked up anything during the sale. And as always, let me know what you want me to review.
Cheers and love
