How many sales does Sephora have a year?

Sephora usually has their sale about three times a year: Spring, Summer and Fall. I plan my list to buy accordingly

This post is very extensive that I wanted to share with you a treat - recipe of something delicious that I found recently on TikTok - Brownie Cheesecake. First, bake the brownies as directed. Next, mix these ingredients in a bowl: cream cheese, sugar and vanilla - then placed it on top of the brownies. I baked it in the oven for 15 minutes. I melted some chocolate and spread it on the top. I put it in the fridge for a couple of hours before enjoying.

Sephora Makeup recommendations

Are you looking to update your makeup vanity? I will be sharing new makeup that I just started using and makeup that I have been using for a while. The following is new makeup and makeup that is part of my consistent beauty routine:

Sephora Lipstick recommendations

Lipstick adds a beautiful finish to my makeup routine. I have added a vast collection over the years. I have used luxury lipstick such as Dior and Tom Ford, and more affordable lipstick such as Rare Beauty lip oil. I have used toppers such as Jouer Lip enhancer or Lawless forget the Filler. I have recently discovered the Tom Ford lipstick. The packaging is luxurious and the color is long lasting.

Rare Beauty at Sephora *

I was lucky to be gifted the Rare beauty lip oil, owned by Selena Gomez, in the color Joy to celebrate their launch. I am going to share with you my experience in using the rare beauty lip oil and other products that I would love to try from Rare Beauty.

Rare Beauty lip oil

The first thing that I love about this lip oil is the beautiful packaging. It’s in the iconic packaging with the silver lid. I notice a slight cooling effect when I first apply the Rare Beauty lip oil. It feels soft and hydrating when I first apply. It glides on my lips gently. The color remains on for the longest time. It doesn’t disappoint. They hydration is lasting even when the shine disappears.

A medium coverage foundation with a beautiful luminous glow. The luminous silk concealer provides hydration and on the spot coverage. The lip power satin long lasting lipstick in intimate creates a beautiful neutral color. I like to create a monochromatic look by using this as a blush as well.

It has helped my makeup apply flawlessly. My skin was more glowing after the first usage. The cleanser for oily skin provides a cooling effect, the acne clarifying lotion is gentle on my skin and helps control the acne and the dramatically different lotion soothes my skin. The three work together to provide that healthy glow. I have shared my review here!

Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare at Sephora *

This two-step peel pad is a life saver when I have those stubborn break outs. I feel that my skin is feeling more cleansed on a deeper level. There are times when I get bad break outs and these pads are great have have in case of emergency. In addition to break outs, these pads helps smooth out texture and skin as well as reduce the look of lines. How often can you use the daily peel pads? I start using these pads 1-2 times a week once a day and you should notice a difference in the texture of your skin in about two weeks. Some active ingredients are retinol, Feluric acid, lactic acid and mandelic acid. The Dr. Dennis Gross Universal Peel Pads is definitely a product I will keep replenishing.

Are you looking for a skincare product to elevate your routine to the next level? Not ready for the needle? The newest launch of Dr. Dennis Gross, Derminfusion fill + repair serum*, is the perfect alternative that is not ready for injectables. These are alternative to injectable fillers. The texture feels amazing and it hydrates my skin and it makes it feels smoother. I have some areas that needs more filled than others, so I use the Dr. Dennis Gross Serum as a spot treatment for those areas. The fill + repair serum is infused with niacinamide, peptides, hyaluronic acid and ectoin.

Paula’s Choice Pro Collagen Multi-Peptide Booster

My first product from Paula’s choice is the skin perfecting 2% BHA toner and the results speaks for themselves. It’s no wonder the toner is so popular. It help reduced the small bumps on my face. I was gifted the Paula’s Choice Pro Collagen Multi-Peptide booster and I want to share my first impression. The peptide booster is formulated to help with fine lines, wrinkles, dullness and discoloration. This is a potent ingredient to help dramatically improve the look of your skin to provide a younger and healthier look. The texture is a lightweight formula and the smell did not last long. The smell faded after a while. I woke up to softer skin.

Benefit Cosmetics - the Porefessional at Sephora *

Everyone wants smooth, soft skin and seek skincare products that will help you reach those results. The benefit Porefessional primer offer short term solution by providing an instant smooth texture to allow a flawless foundation application. The new Porefessional skincare line offers a more long term solution to repair the texture over time by unclogging, improve the texture and minimize the size of your pores. They have launched six products.

I was gifted the whole collection of the porefessional collection from Benefit Cosmetics with no requirement to post. I have been gradually using the products separately to get the real feeling of the collection. I started by double cleansing by using the Benefit Porefessional get unblocked cleansing oil to melt away my makeup. I followed with the Benefit Porefessional Good Cleanup foaming cleanser. There was no oily or drying feeling after usage. It was easy to melt away my makeup without harsh scrubbing.

After a while, I implemented the Benefit Porefessional Tight N’ Toned Toning Foam. It’s an unique foaming toner that allows you to plump and apply. The benefit foaming toner has AHA and PHA to help gently remove dead skin. I love that I don’t have to use a cotton or pad to apply this toner.

The Benefit Cosmetics Porefessional has two masks: benefit cosmetics Deep retreat mask and benefit cosmetics speedy smooth mask. There are two major differences — the deep retreat mask works deeper in the skin and helps draw out the oils from deep within. It’s amazing because you can see it working and the color fading from purple to white. The Speedy Smooth mask is like an instant facial and is meant to rinse off quickly after 3-5 minutes. This works more on the top layer of the skin. The deep retreat works better for my skin type because I am more acne prone and need the deeper clean.

The Finale product - Porefessional smooth sip moisturizer - is a cream with Squalene and niacinamide to help provide a lightweight moisture. This helps smooth the texture of my skin and provides hydration without clogging the pores or breaking me out.

Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream Night

Those that have been following me know that I love Charlotte Tilbury makeup. They have great complexion and color products - especially my favorite Pillow Talk. Another gem is the Charlotte Tilbury Skincare - the magic cream. One of my favorite skincare products is the Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream. It started with Charlotte Tilbury using her magic cream backstage at fashion shows for a quick transformation. It was loved and requested by so many and the cream became available to the public with its ability to provide a smooth texture and instant glow. The ingredients - vitamin C, peptides, hyaluronic acid - work together to perfect the texture of your skin and deeply nourish. This instant perfector makes my makeup looks better and more radiant. The magic night cream, pictured above, is perfect for night because of the retinol ingredient. I love how I wake up with baby soft skin. My skin absorbs and repairs itself while I am sleeping. The ingredients and the benefits makes the magic cream worth the price.

This is a great set for anyone who is experiencing thinning hair or hair falling out. The Virtue Flourish hair mask has a rich texture and is nourishing. The mask melts into my hair without weighing it down. My hair felt healthier and I love the instant results. The Frizz block Spray provides a lightweight texture that takes flyaway’s. I spray at the end of my hair and my hair feels smooth. This feels so lightweight in my hair. It’s not a thick or flattening.

Vegamour has vegan ingredients. Vegamour Hydr-8 new line helps replenish and hydrate hair. It provides a healthy looking hair and repairs hair that is dull and dry. We tend to get the most dry at the end of our hair. My favorite part of the new Vegamour Hydr-8 is the smell. Do you remember the way your grandmother’s vanity smell? The hydr-8 products reminds me of that pleasant smell. It’s not as strong and actually makes it perfect. The Hydr-8 comes in a shampoo, conditioner and hair mask. The Hydr8 shampoo lathers so perfectly. A little goes a long ways. It comes with a twist lid that can be convenient but the shampoo can leak so I sit it upside down to prevent the leaking. I have been using the refillable bottles to save on plastic waste.

It feels like a hairspray and dry shampoo hybrid. The Oribe Dry texturizing spray works best on dry hair. Unlike dry shampoo, the Oribe dry texturizing spray leaves no residue. I am addicted to this spray and I continue to purchase a bottle. I need a lifetime supply of the Oribe dry texturizing spray.
