Favorite Sephora Products I’ll Keep Purchasing
I’ve got my must-haves from Sephora that I just can’t live without! These products are essentials in my beauty routine, and I can’t wait to share them with you.
Top Picks for Sephora Eye Products
Eye products are some of my favorite things to buy because it’s what I think transforms your makeup game the most.
What I Would Buy:
What I Love About Them:
- Too Faced Shadow Insurance – I’ve been using a this eyeshadow primer. It prevents creasing and keep your eye makeup look good for longer time.
- Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer – This is a makeup staple for a reason. ABH knows what they’re doing when it comes to brows. This is a great time to pick this up while it’s discounted. I’m buying it in my shade, Dark Brown.
- Too Faced brown eyeliner – I’ve been using this liquid eyeliner for my eyes. It’s best combo with Urban Decay brown pencil for the perfect shade of brown eyes.
- Tower 28 Lengthening Mascara – I tried this mascara about years ago and I was really impressed by it. It volumizes and lengthens natural lashes.

Worth It Sephora Face Products
Phew, not gonna lie – this one was HARD to narrow down. I have a post with my top foundation favorites, but choosing what’s the best- here’s what I think you’ll love. From my go-to tinted moisturizer to my favorite full coverage foundation these are the best face products.
What I Would Buy:
What I Love About Them:
- NARS Soft Matte Blur Foundation – It truly looks like your skin once it dries and is completely matte without being dry. If you get the right color match, nothing matches your skin better with a flawless finish. It looks like a filter on your face.
- Lancome Ultra Wear Concealer – I loved how good the color match was and I would use as much or as little as I wanted based on the occasion.
- Tower 28 Tinted Sunscreen – It’s such a good formula for foundation and the fact that it’s tinted sunscreen is kinda epic. I love the way it wears, it dries down so it doesn’t look shiny and is very natural. Plus, no SPF smell or white cast.
- IT Cosmetics CC+ Cream Foundation – If you’re looking for more of a medium matte coverage I’d buy one from IT. I has SPF 40. I wear the shade neutral medium.
- Laura Mercier Setting Powder – This is literally everyone’s go-to and for good reason. It’s translucent and works for every skin tone. Plus they make these adorable minis that are so perfect for traveling!
- Caliray So Blown Blurring Primer – A makeup artist recommended this and it’s a melt-free primer. It’s very lightweight, long-lasting, and absorbs oil. It’s perfect for staying all day even in the summer.
- Charlotte Tilburry Airbrush Foundation – If matte formulas aren’t your thing, then you need to try this foundation from Charlotte Tilbury. The dewy glow will make your skin shine that the K-beauty glass skin goddess that you are.

Best Hair Care Products from Sephora
My favorite hair products are the ones that I actually use and that work for me. Hair products can get really expensive, so I included a few minis for you to try out to see if you like the product before investing in a full-size version. These are things that I’ve used for years.
What I Would Buy:
What I Love About Them:
- Living Proof PhD Dry Shampoo – It claims to actually clean hair and it is perfect to add volume to greasy/oily hair. Yes, I know that sounds like a contradiction but it does work.
- K18 Peptide Prep. This is an incredible detox shampoo that is perfect if you oil your hair. One of my holy grail products.
- K18 Leave-In Hair Mask – It’s expensive, but it’s worth it. It will repair any hair damage from bleach, color, chemical services, and heat. Just like it has advanced technology that reverses hair damage and 4 uses.
- Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray – This is an oil-absorbing product essentially a dry shampoo but- hear me out the Zeolite Crystallines, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, and vitamin B5 thicken and add texture to the hair. It is a great two-in-one product.
- Oribe Royal Blowout Hair – I like to use it while blow-drying my hair and it gives me better results.
- Kerastase Nutritive Serum – I use this as leave-in serum overnight. It has so many benefits. It helps hydrates, strengthens, detangles, and enhances the shine, of all hair types.

Holy Grail Skincare Products from Sephora
This one was really hard too since skincare is so personal. I went with items that I’ve used daily. It is also the products I had used when I was pregnant to Mila. If you’re looking for my pregnancy skincare routine, make sure you check out this post.
What I Would Buy:
What I Love About Them:
- Paula’s Choice 2% BHA exfoliant -Adding an exfoliant regularly is a good idea. However, don’t overdo it. This is what I use for my skin for any breakouts.
- Supergoop Matte Sunscreen – I loved the way it made my skin feel — it’s slightly tinted with no white cast, mineral-based sunscreen. It’s pregnancy safe, safe for people with sensitive skin, people who are nursing, and literally for everyone. It’s also not greasy and completely matte on your face, so there’s none of that SPF shine that you get.
- Peter Thomas Roth Hydra-Gel Eye Patches – I know it’s quite pricey but it’s worth it. This is best time to buy it while it is discounted. I like to keep mine in the fridge.
- Sunday Riley C.E.O. Vitamin C Cream – I love this product. It is both vitamin C and the moisturizer. My husband love this cream and finished it.
- Summer Fridays Midnight Ritual Retinol – It’s a gentle retinol and great for beginners. This is what I’m currently using for once or twice a week.

Recommended Clean Beauty from Sephora

What I Would Buy:
What I Love About Them:
- SuperGoop – It is a cult clean-favorite after they became a household name with their sunscreens. Unseen Sunscreen and Matte Sunscreen are truly amazing products, but the Unseen is chemical one, so I recommend the Matte that is 100% mineral. It has no white cast, slightly tinted, and no smell or stickiness. Pregnancy, nursing and sensitive skin safe!
- Tower 28– This brand is also offer a clean beauty products. Their tinted sunscreen is a good formula, it dries down so it doesn’t look shiny and is very natural. Plus, their mascara is also my favorite. It volumizes and lengthens natural lashes.
