I have a quick haul post for what I picked up from Sephora! I still have some things in my online cart for products we could not find in our store but these are the skincare, hair care and other beauty picks both Andrew and I bought during the spring bonus event. It ends today Monday May 6th so there’s still time to shop! Details for the tiers on their Beauty Insider page for details on how to join. Discounts as follows:
- Rouge Members get 20% off, 4/26 through 5/6 with code HEYROUGE
- VIB Members get 15% off, 5/2 through 5/6 with code HEYVIB
- BI Members get 10% off, 5/2 through 5/6 with code HEYINSIDER
With the exception of our restocks I haven’t been able to test most of the makeup products. Reviews to follow as soon as I can but I have a lot already pre-planned to post for this week so the swatches for the lip products most likely won’t be up until sometime next week.

Skin + Hair Picks: Sabrina’s and Andrew’s
I still remember distinctly when Andrew refused to go into Sephora with me. Anytime we were shopping together he would see me walk towards the store and say, “meet me at (x place) when you’re done.” He’s always been a well-groomed person but I can’t express how happy it makes me that in the past couple of years he has taken a bigger interest in skincare and taking care of our health and wellness. These days he goes in the store with me to shop the skincare areas and wanders off to do his own browsing.
Above left are my picks which includes restock on Supergoop! Everyday Sunscreen, Christophe Robin Shade Variation Hair Mask in Warm Chestnut (love love love this!), Olaplex No 6 Bond Smoother and Tatcha Silk Canvas mini. I bought the Glamglow Bubble Sheet Mask because I had one before but lost it and never tried it. I also picked up the Smashbox Studio Flawless Concealer in Light Medium Warm and the Farsali Rose Gold 24K Skin Mist – it has gold flecks inside! I used some points for an Amika Perk Up Mini Dry Shampoo.
Above right are what Andrew picked out including the Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream (mini), First Aid Beauty Acne Clearing Pads, Farmacy Clean Bee Cleanser (this one is for both of us), Kate Somerville Wrinkle Warrior Serum (his second bottle because it’s one of the few serums that doesn’t have a thick or sticky finish), Fresh Black Tea Eye Serum, Sephora Collection 3-in-1 Extractor and Kiehl’s Blue Herbal Spot Treatment (another restock for him).

Fenty Beauty Picks
I’ve been really loving Fenty Beauty the more and more I try from the line. I bought two highlighters in the Killawatt Freestyle in Afternoon Snack/Mo Hunny and Foil Freestyle Highlighter in Penny4uthots. I tried the duo today and think it’s so so pretty. I also picked up the two lightest matte Sun Stalk’r Bronzers in Inda Sun and Shady Bix. I haven’t had a chance to try them yet but took a quick peek at them in store. I’ve been really interested in the Pro Filter Powder but the testers look so chalky in store on my hand. I opted for a mini in Cashew which I have on my face right now and it’s too dark but could possibly work in the summer for me. I’m not sure if I’ll go back for the lighter shades. From Charlotte Tilbury I bought one of the Glowgasm Highlighters in Peach (ordered the rest online).

Lip Haul Picks
I spotted two new Bobbi Brown Crushed Liquid Lips and picked the lighter shade East Coast Slay. It’s a pale nude yellowish beige cream. I also saw the new Hourglass Unreal Lip Glosses and wanted every single color. I bought 5 in Ignite, Truth, Prose, Canvas and Cosmic. I tested Truth yesterday and really like it – it’s smooth and not sticky with good coverage. Has a minty scent to it but not really plumping on me (no tingle). I’ll keep you posted! I also opted for one of the Dior Stellar Shine in D-Galaxy. I had high hopes for these but none of the other colors really spoke to me. If you think there are any that I should check out let me know in the comments!

That wraps up my Sephora haul! I think I might order a few more of the Hourglass Lip Glosses even though I don’t need anymore. The Sephora Beauty Insider Event ends tonight – what did you end up hauling?
You definitely love your lip products! 🙂
The Bobbi Brown liquid lipsticks look amazing.

Lovely picks! Hourglass Truth really does look amazing on you! It’s so cute how Andrew’s interest in skincare and wellness has evolved! My bf still refuses to go into Sephora with me (albeit – he gets terrible anxiety in crowded spaces, and the SF Powell St store is always jam-packed).
I picked up a ton of restocks/backups (Olaplex 3 and 6, Tatcha Cleansing Grains in Gentle, Cleansing Oil, La Mer Soft Cream, Treatment Lotion, Tata Harper Resurfacing Mask and Mario Badescu Buffering Lotion) as well as a few new masks I tried and liked (Summer Fridays R&R Mask, glow recipe Avocado Sleeping Mask). Took the sale as an opportunity to scout some new skincare – new toner (Fresh rose petal and Kiehl’s cucumber, but I was completely out of toner and had been using an herbivore rosewater mist in the meantime), new serum (glow recipe Pineapple-C – just looked so cute) and Fresh’s lemon lip balm seemed like an easy win. In beauty I was trying to be good – only picked up one of Bite’s new lip stains – but also came away with FIVE sparkly eyeshadows when I went in store, including 3 you reviewed (TF Violet Argente, Hourglass Foil and Smoke, and two of the Kaja liquids too, in Magic and Mystical). I’m really loving the lip stain too, and considering buying the other two………..
Interesting post! I picked up the CT Peachgasm Blush as well, I didnt try it out yet though.
I love her powder and would totally recommend picking it up!

What lovely products! I’ve been really interested in CT cream contour/highlighter products. I have a few of her products which are pretty good, but always shy away from other stuff because of the cost.

So … I stayed true to my decision.. bought what I needed and nothing more! Burberry men’s perfume and the ordinary-salicylic acid
Tacha C, Shiseido cotton, Volition Strawberry, TF Violet Argente and Lissome, Peter Thomas Roth Retinoid 3%, Fenty FU$$Y- first time trying brand and it’s awesome, and Jack Black Dry Down powder for the Savannah humidity.
I may now have to buy an Hourglass gloss and Fenty Glow gloss. Maybe TF Exotica Flora. Decisions, decisions.
David flaunts his gorgeous curls and waves all the time now. Tells people how he gets 2nd day hair!
I did not order much this time besides a couple of BB crushed glosses and a couple Pat McGrath shadows because I am finding so many discounts and GWP on other websites besides Sephora right now. I am stocking up on skincare and make up from those sites instead! (Cult Beauty, Kat Burki, Blue Mercury)
Based on your reviews, I picked up Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder in Medium, Hourglass Scattered Light Glitter Eye Shadow in Smoke, and Bobbi Brown Crushed Liquid Lipstick in Lychee Baby. I also picked up Caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum (because I needed a new serum and any French brand seems to work on my skin) and Bite Beauty Agave+ Daytime Vegan Lip Balm. Didn’t go as crazy as I could, but I look forward to trying everything I ordered. Trying to hold back on buying makeup because it has occurred to me that I also need clothing and shoes. 🙂 BTW, thank you for sharing your haul! You’ve definitely got me curious!
Ended up hauling the Farmacy cleansing balm, Fenty highlighter, Becca purple primer, a becca set and DE vitamin C. Had to really control myself haha
I picked up the Dior Stellar Shine in 612 Sideral and have had random people compliment me on it every single time I’ve worn it. It’s pretty fantastic.
