It's my favorite time of year! Well... almost... but you can't beat the annual VIB sale where us VIB gals save 20% off our entire purchase at Sephora. It's the perfect time to re-stock every day items, pick up Christmas gifts, and finally try out items that were too much of a splurge without the discount.
1. NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer - I've been a loyal Erase Paste user for years to cover up my hereditary dark circles under my eyes, but ever since Biana recommended trying out this concealer I've been intrigued.
2. UD Primer Potion - aka my holy grail of all products. This little tube keeps my eye makeup fresh all day and even into the night for after work happy hours and outings.
3. Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette - Such a gorgeous palette that I just can't bring myself to purchase due to the price, but with the sale it may be time to go for it.
4. Classic Crease Shadow Brush - I've been looking for the perfect brush for applying shadow in the crease of my eyelids.
5. BECCA Ever-Matte Poreless Priming Perfector - I've been on the hunt for the perfect primer to keep my face looking matte even in the heat of Florida summers. So when the always flawless looking Deborah recommended this primer, I immediately added it to my wishlist and it's definitely time to finally try it out.
6. Sculpt Curling Wand - I'm such a dunce at doing my own hair (hence the need to go to a blow dry bar before big events) so I'm hoping that a curling wand will help me get those beautiful waves that a lot of you girls rock so effortlessly. *Fingers crossed*
7. Clarisonic Replacement Brush Head - I'm definitely overdue to replace the brush head on my Clarisonic Mia. Better yet, I should pick up a 2 pack while I'm at it....
8. Bumble and Bumble Thickening Hair Spray - I was skeptical at first of this product since I have such fine hair, but it really does give my hair the extra "oomph" it needs and feels thicker after blow drying.
9. UD Naked2 Basics Palette - I'm just a total sucker for all the Naked palettes, each one has been absolutely amazing in it's own way. I may need to add this one to my collection.
10. Tory Burch Eau de Parfum Spray - Such a pretty feminine scent and bottle, love the whole package.
What's currently on your Sephora wish list for the big sale?
I was totally the same as you - loyal to erase paste and faithful for four years...but I'm so happy with the NARS concealer!! Love it! I think you'll love the wand curling experience - I dont have that one, but I love the way my hair curls with it!
ReplyDeleteNARS concealer all day errday!! You'll love it and die without it. Trust!
ReplyDeleteThat primer has taken a back seat to my two current loves... Peter Thomas Roth Anti-Shine Mattifying Gel and the Smashbox Pore Minimizing primer (the new purple one). I use the PTR one first and then the Smashbox one on top. My makeup DOES. NOT. MOVE. It's been amazing. I'm actually posting about it tomorrow. The Becca one is still amazing, tho. lol
ohhh so many fun things to buy. i could spend a fortue on makeup, all day every day.
ReplyDeleteWoo hoo!! My fave time too! I can't wait to shop tomorrow :)
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely in for the Naked Basics Palette and a Bite lip pencil. I need to troll my wish list today to see what's worth y if it's 20% more off.
ReplyDeleteI love by UD eye primer.
I love this time of year because I use it as an excuse to "gift" myself. I got the Sephora Catalog in the mail and can't wait to mark some faves and send over to the boy to buy as Christmas gifts! Love your picks!
ReplyDeleteOne of each, please.
ReplyDeleteI want to check out the wand. The Naked Palette is such a great gift.
ReplyDeleteOh boy! This all looks great! I want to try that wand!
ReplyDeleteOh i need to add a Naked Palette to my life. Maybe this sale would be a good excuse to buy one ;)
ReplyDeleteI need to pick up a new Clarisonic brush head but it's such a boring thing to spend your money on! Can't wait to hear what you pick up!!
ReplyDeleteUD primer potion. YES this is my fav!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMy cart is all ready for me to submit tomorrow - can't wait!
ReplyDeleteI have that NARS concealer in my cart ready to go!
ReplyDeleteamong other things naturally.....
DeleteI'm awful at curling my hair so I've always been so intrigued by a curling wand - may have to finally check it out! Great list! xoxo
ReplyDeleteBetween this and the Nordstrom sale I'm going to go broke buying things for myself instead of Christmas! LOL! I've been dying to achieve the loose waves look so maybe the curling wand will help that! Great picks!

Awesome picks!! The Nars concealer is fabulous and the UD primer is totally worth stocking up on with the discount! I really want a curling wand, I just am so bad at curling my hair :)
ReplyDeleteGirl, that Bumble & Bumble product is a miracle worker! I'm also obsessed with that UD primer - seems to be a fan favorite on this list :) I have a totally loaded cart ready to go - one of the best sales of the year! (Though of course it's at the same time as the Nordstrom sale.. and they say we can't have it all!). ;)
ReplyDeleteOooo I need to go smell the TB perfume...That's new to me! And I'm still eyeing the Naked 3 palette so I think it's about time.
ReplyDeleteAwesome list of products! The Hourglass palette is 100% absolutely worth it and I am basically down to pan in one of the shades already! I really like the Naked Basics 2, but it's not for everyone (but much like you I feel the need to collect everything UD). I have got a couple sample bottles of the Tory Burch perfume and I LOVE it! I will probably wait till the the bonus points time rolls around to grab up a full size bottle.
ReplyDeleteBig things on my list this year were replacing my Tarte Amazonian Clay Full Coverage Foundation and grabbing up the stick concealer and the setting powder. Also the OCC Lip Tar in Black Dahlia! I will be doing a video soon on my YouTube channel showing all of my purchases :D
Nice, you have some fabulous beauty find here. I have heard a lot good things about the Hourglass palette and I am going to try that one, it's a must. I love me a good concealer, I have been using the YSL touche eclat for years now and have been really happy with it.
ReplyDeleteI will be buying a new beauty blender, plenty of nail polish and some Alterna hair products. Happy Shopping!
I really want to try the Hourglass palette, I'm so upset I didn't add it to my order. But I know I'll order it soon! Loving the products I did get, including the concealer :)
DeleteOh lady i spent way too much $$ during the VIB sale but picked up some amazing things! I am so obsessed with the hourglass powders!
ReplyDeleteThese are such great picks. I want all of it! Especially the Naked Palette. Thanks for linking up!
