If you shop the sale, tag me in your stories! I want to see what you get! 🙃

Belif Aqua Bomb Moisturizer. I've been using Aqua Bomb since my early 20s to combat my oily skin, and it is my absolute fave! It's one of those beauty products you keep going back to repeatedly because it's that good. Read more about it in this blog post, "A Skincare Routine for Oily and Acne-prone Skin That Actually Works."

Farmacy Deep Sweep. I bought this toner for the first time in January, and I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly it cleared my skin. I ran out of my second bottle this week, and I plan on restocking it at the sale. Perfect timing, no?

Glow Recipe Strawberry Smooth. First, this serum smells amazing, like strawberries! I saw it in the "New" section in my store and immediately put it in my basket after smelling it. It says it decongests pores, balances oil, and minimizes breakouts — the perfect serum for people with oily and acne-prone skin. I can't wait to add another serum to my skincare routine that isn't vitamin c!

Patrick Ta Brow Lamination Gel. I restocked on this lamination brow gel, perfect for getting that trending fluffy eyebrow look.

Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask. I love Summer Fridays Jet Lag mask and never not have it in my stash. It's the best all-in-one product. I use it for pretty much everything: a face mask, eye cream, moisturizer, sunburn relief, and sometimes as cuticle and hand cream. I also never travel without it, and I use it as a moisturizer before going on any long flights. It's so good!

Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm. Last but not least, I bought the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm in Vanilla Beige. It smells so good (like vanilla beans!).

Chloé Rose Tangerine Eau de Toilette. I got a sample of this perfume a couple of months ago, and I can't stop thinking about it! Chloé is one of my favorite fragrances (more on that below).

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Sunscreen. I've only heard great things about this sunscreen, and I'm excited to try it! Unfortunately, it's sold out at all the Sephora stores in Hawaiʻi, so I'll need to order it online.

Merit – I have a couple of things from Merit in my cart. I like the reviews on their Flush Balm Cream Blush, and I'm hoping to pick it up in the colors "Beverly Hills" and "Terracotta." I also have their Lightweight Lipstick in "Slip" in my cart. 

More Patrick Ta! Patrick Ta Beauty has been a staple in my makeup bag since last year's spring savings event. I'm obsessed with their crème & powder blush. I never used to like cream makeup, but this product changed my mind. I currently own two blush colors: She's That Girl and She's So L.A., and I plan on purchasing She's Baked and maybe something bright, like Do We Know Her or She's Vibrant.

Sì Passione Eau de Parfum. I sampled this perfume in the store but decided against it. When I got a whiff of it a couple of hours later, I couldn't stop thinking about it, and I think I need it. 

The Belif Peat Miracle Revital Eye Cream is the most hydrating eye cream I have ever used. A fave!

I have a few Biossance faves I love, like the Vitamin C Rose Oil, which I use exclusively at night, and the Probiotic Gel Cream Moisturizer. 

TikTok influenced me to buy the Caudalie Instant Detox Mask last year, and it delivered! A gentle clay mask that instantly detoxes your skin is hard to come by.

The Dermapore Pore Extractor & Serum Infuser tool is great for oily skin and highly satisfying if you enjoy shows like Dr. Pimple Popper. 😉 The vibrating spatula removes makeup, oil, and dirt deep within your pores. Use the opposite side to infuse your serums. Your skin needs to be wet when using this tool, so I highly recommend using it with a face steamer. I like this facial steamer from Vanity Planet (not part of the Sephora sale).

The Fresh Soy Face Cleanser is my favorite cleanser for oily skin! I've been using this cleanser since my early 20s, and it's one of those products you buy over and over. It's one of the few gentle cleansers you can use on and around the eyes to remove waterproof mascara and eyeliner.

I always talk about how much I love watermelons on Instagram, so it's no surprise I love the Watermelon Glow line from Glow Recipe. Their Watermelon Glow Pore-tight Toner smells like a spicy watermelon margarita (my fave drink) and gives your skin a beautiful, clean glow. It's also ideal for traveling because you don't need a cotton pad to apply it. Warm-up a tiny bit of toner in your hands and press it into your face. I also love their Ultra-fine Mist for setting my makeup. 

If you're interested in Korean skincare, Laneige is an amazing and affordable place to start. I love their Cream Skin Toner, especially during the cooler months when my skin is a little drier. They also make one of my favorite lip masks, the Vanilla Lip Sleeping Mask.

I recently started dermaplaning, a fancy word for shaving my face, exfoliating it from the peach fuzz, and shaving my mustache. I love how chic and affordable this Sephora Collection Metal Facial Razor is. It comes in a carrying case and three replaceable blades. Save 30% on Sephora Collection during the sale (no status or code needed)! 

I have a bunch of Summer Friday faves to share. I love their Super Amino Gel Cleanser and Cloud Dew Oil-Free Gel Cream. I usually rotate my current cleanser and moisturizer for their cleanser and moisturizer throughout the year. Their cleanser is the only cleanser that clears the blackheads from my nose. It's amazing! I already mentioned how much I love their Jet Lag Mask above. I also love their Overtime Mask to exfoliate and hydrate my skin. Also, it smells like pumpkins! Their CC Me Vitamin C Serum is also great, especially for people just getting started with vitamin c serums. 

OleHenriksen is another one of my favorite skincare brands for oily skin. I love their Balancing Force Oil Control Toner and have been using it since my mid-20s. I also love their Banana Bright Vitamin C Serum. It smells refreshing, like oranges, and I love using it in the mornings.

The Origins Ginzing Eye Cream is my favorite eye cream for under-eye circles. And it's on the cheaper end of the spectrum of eye creams!

OK, I know the Peter Thomas Roth Potent-C Vitamin C Serum is expensive ($99), but it's amazing. I buy it occasionally (less than once a year), and when I use it, I notice a difference in my "tech-neck lines" instantly. People with mature skin might benefit from this product more, but I think you'll like this serum too if you have pre-mature fine lines. If you're not digging the price (even with the Sephora sale discount), check out my vitamin c guide, "My Favorite Vitamin C Serums Under $100."

I love my PMD Clean Pro. It's one of the best tools to elevate your skincare routine. The silicone vibrating head exfoliates the skin and removes makeup, oil, and dirt trapped in your pores. On the opposite side, a heated rose quartz serum infuser melts skincare deep into your skin and feels amazing after a long day. It also looks really cute displayed on your counter. 

I was pleasantly surprised at how much I loved Supergoop! I recently finished their Daily Dose Vitamin C + SPF and loved it. (Read more in this Instagram post.) I'm also a huge fan of their Matte Screen.

As a public relations professional, I admire Tatcha's strategy to promote its products by educating consumers about their product's ingredients and how it's connected to Japanese culture. My all-time favorite Tatcha product is the Silken Pore Perfecting Sunscreen. I've raved about this sunscreen on Instagram and my blog for years because it's the best matte sunscreen ever. I also love their Camelia Makeup Removing Cleanser & Oil. I will occasionally use it with The Rice Polish Foaming Enzyme Powder to exfoliate my skin. Last but not least, their Kissu Lip Mask is amazing! It healed my months-long chapped and dried lips in days.

Wander Baggage Claim Eye Masks. I like these because they're gold and super Instagrammy, obvs. 😋

I talked about how much I loved the Briogeo Scalp Scrub in my blog post, "How to Get Rid of Dandruff + Itchy Scalp." This hair scrub makes your scalp feel squeaky clean, and I recommend using it once a week. If that's too much, try every other week. 

I love my Dyson Airwrap and cannot go a week without using it. It makes my hair feel silky-smooth but also voluminous. I'm not gonna lie; it's expensive ($549). But if it's been on your Sephora list for a while, now is the time to get it. Especially if you have Rouge status! (I bought mine in 2020 at the Sephora Holiday Savings Event and saved 20%!)

If you can't wrap your head around paying $500+ for a hair tool, the Drybar Double Shot Blow-dryer Brush is a more affordable option. This was the first blow-dryer brush I bought. See how I used it to train my bangs in my blog post "How to Train & Style Your Bangs with a Blow-dryer Brush." If you want a smaller barrel, you might want to look into their Single Shot Blow-dryer Brush. 

I'm a new fan of Fable & Mane hair products. It started with a travel-sized version of the HoliRoots Pre-treatment Hair Oil, and I fell in love! Now I own the shampoo, conditioner, and hair mask. I love hair wash days because I smell like a banana cream pie with toasted coconut sprinkled on top. 😋 

I've talked about how much I love the Olaplex No. 6 Bond Smoother and the No. 7 Bonding Hair Oil on my Instagram. Those are my two favorite products for managing second-day hair and keeping my hair color vibrant in-between salon visits.

I bought the T3 Whirl Trio Wand at the Sephora Holiday Savings Event in 2019. (Are you noticing a pattern here? 😉) Anyway, I love that it's interchangeable and comes with three different barrel sizes. You can also buy the curling iron attachments and use them with the base. Whoever thought of this product is a genius!

The Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer is the best eyebrow pencil for people with thicker / bushier brows. It lasts me a super long time, and I purchase this product about twice a year unless I need a different color to match my hair color.

The Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder is a staple in my makeup bag and purse. I love using it to touch my makeup up throughout the day.

The Fenty Beauty Eaze Drop Blurring Skin Tint is my current go-to "foundation." It's the first BB / CC cream-adjacent product I bought and actually love. It's so popular that I waited six weeks last year for it to come back in stock. This is my go-to to wear at Disneyland!

I'm obsessed with faux freckles and love using The Original Freck to get them. I also love the Freck Cheekslime Blush + Lip Tint. It's one of my favorites to pack while traveling because it doesn't require a blush brush, and it's long-lasting. 

The Lancôme Monsieur Big Mascara is my go-to mascara! The formula is perfect, not too goopy or dry, and the volume is unmatched! I don't need to curl my lashes with it because it's that good. I always use my Beauty Insider Rewards to pick up this mascara for 100 points if it's available. Otherwise, I'll buy it in the travel size because I tend to finish the tube before it expires.

Nars is one of my favorite makeup brands because of its diverse range of foundation and concealer colors. Even before having a diverse range of colors became a thing. Their Radiant Creamy Concealer is one of my longtime faves. I also love their Natural Radiant Longwear and Soft Matte foundations (I used this foundation on my wedding day). I always have their Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in my makeup bag, and their new Powermatte Lip Pigment is amazing! I also love their Climax Mascara because the formula is on the drier side, perfect for contact wearers.

I never thought I'd wear cream bronzer because I thought it always looked muddy on me. But I'm obsessed with Patrick Ta's Crème Contour & Bronzer Duo. It's kinda the perfect color for me. 

I randomly bought the Rare Beauty Lightning Touch Concealer last year, and I'd be lying if I didn't say it's one of the best concealers I ever tried. It's actually quite a large tube for $19, and you don't need a lot for full coverage. A great "bang for your buck."

Beauty friends, don't sleep on the Sephora Collection! They have some of my favorite makeup products, like their Matte Bronzer Powder and the Long Lasting Liquid Eyeliner (the best for winged eyeliner). I also like their Colorful Eyeshadow & Eyeliner Multi-Stick (I use their matte black stick as an eyeliner). Save 30% when you shop Sephora Collection at the spring savings event!

Chloé! Believe it or not, my Nana was the one who introduced me to Chloé. I love all their scents, but my all-time favorite is Roses de Chloé. 

I randomly bought this Gisou Honey-Infused Hair Perfume a few months ago, and it makes me feel so luxurious! *Cue Gwen Stefani's "Luxurious."*

Gucci Bloom Eau de Parfum. In all honesty, the only reason why I love this perfume is that Chris Evans endorses it. (No shame here!) 😂 The scent is a little strong at first, but you get used to it eventually.

Marc Jacobs Daisy was one of the first high-end perfumes I bought myself. It has a light and floral scent, perfect for those just beginning to dabble in high-end fragrances.

Georgio Armani's Sì Eau de Parfum is another perfume that makes me feel so luxurious! It's an acquired smell, but once you're used to it, you're obsessed? At least that's what happened to me.

The BeautyBlender is a must-have in my beauty bag. I tried other, more affordable options, but I still prefer BeautyBlender.

I prefer cleansing oils to makeup wipes, and the Biossance Cleansing Oil is a nice option.

I tried the GrandeLash Enhancing Serum a couple of months ago, and the growth was amazing! But, there were a few downsides, like sensitive eyes and abnormal hair growth under my eyes. This doesn't happen to everyone, and if it does, it goes away eventually. If you can get past that, now is a good time to give it a try. 

The Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder is one of my longtime faves. I like to buy the travel size, so it doesn't take up too much space in my makeup bag at home and when I travel. I've found drugstore options that I like better, but it doesn't come in travel size.
