I’ve Been a Beauty Editor for a Decade & This Is What I’m Buying from the Sephora Sale

All products and services featured are independently chosen by editors. However, StyleCaster may receive a commission on orders placed through its retail links, and the retailer may receive certain auditable data for accounting purposes.

It’s not a secret that beauty editors and influencers receive a lot of products to test. It’s how we decide what’s worth talking about and what’s worth spending your hard-earned money on. Some stand out as must-haves I would actually re-purchase with my own money during the big Sephora sale — others are just so-so. Below are my Sephora sale picks from makeup, skincare, haircare, and even sex toys, my ride-or-dies you should add to cart now.

Here’s how the Sephora sale works. Rouge members (meaning you spent $1,000 in the calendar year), get 20 percent off now until November 6, VIB ($300 per calendar year) get 15 percent off October 31-November 6, and Insider (any amount spent) get 10 percent off from October 31-November 6. Plus, everyone gets 30 percent off Sephora Collection makeup, skincare, and tools. Use code TIMETOSAVE for all these savings.

There are some limitations to remember: you can only grab one Dyson item and three Tarte Shape Tape Concealers per SKU per transaction. The Ordinary and MAC Cosmetics VIVA GLAM products are excluded.
