elite cotton pads, body shimmer + some other stuff
my last niche & dramatic sephora sale mention then i’ll stfu
hi friends :)
i know i’ve been posting about the sephora sale for what seems like forever but bc it is coming to end here are some random items that may not come to mind immediately but i think are worth it (or interesting).
sephora sale final boss type shiiii
shiseido cotton- the most elite cotton imo!!!!!! 28!!! layers per square (comparable to 2 vs 1 ply toilet paper? like u KNOW the difference) lol. so luxe. soaks up so much product so you don’t overuse. i know some people like the clean skin club squares which i think are also fine (they’re bigger with some texture but don’t soak up as much product imo) but i think these rlly are THE ONE. they just feel like soft little cloud pillows on your face. yum. while we’re speaking of clean skin club I prefer their xl towels over the cotton (2 diff products but just saying) those are great for travel or if you’re used to using a face towel etc.
prada beauty lip balm- bc ofc i want the PRADA ph lip balm!!! lets see if this replaces my obsession with dior lip glow balm in 01 (my holy fucking grail) put one in the tomb with me
tom ford body glimmer oil- need i say more? the perfect amount of shimmer imo. summer 2025 is the summer of body glitter bc u might as well look sexy while the world goes to shit
ultra violette sunscreen lip balm- bc sunscreen on lips is not cutting it.
dr dennis pads- if you have any acne, texture, hyperpigmentation or wtv f going on this will change the game. i do these about twice a week but make sure to moisturize well after. some ppl use more often but I’m using a mandelic acid as well & don’t wanna fuck with too many strong things all at once. great for travel
caudalie body oil- i fuuuuuck with a body oil heavy. i loooove figs so the scent doesn’t bother me. this is a nighttime shower MUST.
hanni weightless oil- if you don’t like a heavy oil this is your gal bc it soaks into your skin very fast. the scent is yummy but very faint. new to me but will definitely be repurchasing.
first aid beauty bump eraser- i always go back to this. tried n true. make sure to moisturize after. i do this once a week-ish or anytime i’m feeling bumpy or want some extra tlc.
*if you’re only taking care of your skin on your face & not your body we cannot be friends. get it together!!!! (this includes hands n feet)
touch land hand sanitizer- bc i like a spray sanitizer that smells like roses. sue me.
nette candles- bc i dont wanna pay full price for anything but esp candles. obviously for yourself but great to stock up as gifts. (tomato, fette, queen & the magician r the ones) fette is my fave
l'occitane shower oil situation- luxxxxxxuryyy. starts off as an oil then turns into a wash.
sofie pavitt- micellar pads. great for purse. gym bag. work bag. feeling lazy before going to bed. using before face wash. i want one in every bag. airplanes. i think these are GREAT.
theraplush hand cream- my mom always said the neck and the hands are what give your age away (i am not against aging just sayin) but i wanna take care of those things!!!! this is so chic to have on your night stand or desk also great gift.
soft services buffing bar- bc who doesn’t want soft skin? i also love a bar (i’m a RELIGIOUS dove sensitive skin bar soap gal). i have a love hate relationship with scrubs in jars & this is straight to the point. also great for traveling(love the 2pack). i alternate between this and the first aid beauty bump eraser.
soft services carea cream- at first i wasn’t sure if i was gonna like this bc it seems a bit watery but honestly soaks into your skin beautifully and you feel like a baby’s bottom after a nice shower. Especially if you use the buffing bar or bump eraser prior.
dedcool detergent- lol buying detergent at sephora. again bc i like everything to smell good and feel luxe!!! but i will not be that bitch paying full price for it. also the candles are nice.
higher dose- sauna blanket- need i say more? everyone I know that owns one (about 5 ppl) absolutely loves and if there is a time to pull the trigger on this big of a purchase it would be now. many ppl have said they love for obvious detox purposes but the one that caught my attention the most was a friend who has PCOS said this has been her saving grace in her routine that’s made quite the difference.
if you’re in the market for a new vibrator- i don’t have any of these but why not? i’m down for anything on sale lmao
dr jart 5pack face mask- my favorite sheet masks. don’t u ever dare travel without a face mask in your bag (not on the plane i haven’t hit that peak of annoying yet. its for after) good bang for ur buck especially with discount.
sk 11 sheet masks- for an extra treat yourself moment. (i would just get the discovery set for a little more $$)
shu umera rice water spray- leaves your hair so soft & buttery without weighing it down.
shu umera ultimate reset mask- if your hair is crispy you better get this.
color wow money mask- my favorite mask. i use this as conditioner 95% of the time especially during winter. great for fine hair doesn’t weigh you down but moisturizing enough for my thick hair gals. (hate the packaging if they’d like some consulting hmu i’ve got many opinions)
the crown affair slick kit- i luurv all of these items. i don’t think i need to explain but the mini brush is perfection and so is the gel.
moon juice magnesium- for my sleepy (or not) girls!!!! (don’t worry sleep stack coming soon) i love sleeping. and this keeps me asleep all night. no weird ass dreams. no grogginess. (i used to only stay asleep with edibles before so this is a big deal for me). I get the little packets to travel with me.
dae hair wand thing- great for your purse or any on the go moment. (brow gel also does the trick) but this is formulated for your hair blah blah (prob shouldn’t be sharing scalp with eye stuff anyways)
oribe supershine hair cream- it is just that. a shiny cream for your hair. very luxe. jadore.
hanni razor- if ur into fancy razors this ones nioce (i’m a flamingo from target gal)
first aid beauty ingrown hair pads- self explanatory
topicals aha ingrown hair roller- never used but the before and afters are v good. (lasering has helped my ingrowns HIGHLY recommend)
goop sex oil- haven’t used sounds interesting lol
virtue healing oil- one of my top 3 favorite hair oil (i cant commit to saying 1) smells surrrrr good. lightweight but moisturizing. leaves your hair shiny. ppl ask me what perfume i’m wearing if i have this on which is funny bc i would never go for this scent in a fragrance but love it for hair.
color wow dream coat- my go to heat protectant that’s also an anti frizz treatment.
silk pillow case- self explanatory. good for soft hair. helps with frizz, moisture, good skin.
sk-LL- water essence. if I’m being honest i’ve only used this a couple times at a friends apt but it left me so moist & plump & bouncy (?) but the price tag kept me from buying till moments like these. i didnt wanna buy the expensive face water but here we are! here is the travel size first dip to ur new addiction
fara homidi- buffing brush and concealer. the only other concealer I’ve worn in legit almost 10 years.
mini tweezer set- bc for wtv reason I or someone always needs tweezers while traveling and i like to be prepared AND have options.
salt and stone body wash- my go to is the oud & rose.
crown affair towel- the only hair towel that matters
kate McLeod grounding lotion stone- looks like soap but comes in a chic reusable bamboo packaging. Very concentrated. You rub onto your skin & it almost turns into oil but soaks into your skin beautifully. I like the grounding scent the most although I want to try dusk which is supposed to be a natural insect repellent. (if that actually works i am gonna be so happy)
face steamer- great for the winter. also great for when you’re sick lol.
bread beauty supply scalp thingy- stimulate blood flow and help remove build up.
westman atelier- skin activator i haven’t tried but rlly want to (will this be in my THIRD sephora sale purchase) (((((: i mean it just sounds so chic
shiseido sunscreen stick- i <3 mini things & this is perfect to throw in your bag & keeps me committed to reapplying also gr8 for travel bag
davines oi travel set- the most perfect travel shampoo & conditioner set. one of the most moisturizing but not too heavy shampoos that exist & while traveling with weird ass water/change in humidity this is ur bff.
shiseido eye curler- the only one that matters.
dior nail glow- if you do your own nails or get regular manis but don’t want clear but don’t want nude.
tom ford fucking fabolous candle- just fun to look at & smells good.
augustinus moisturizer on the go set- this on vacation would feel like the epitome of luxury.
shark beauty flex styler- better than the dyson air wrap imo. (make sure to use a heat protectant plzzzz)
& that’s that! happy shopping lovers <3
duh to all the makeup stuff but that felt obvious
