You can exhale and finally press purchase on that Sephora cart you’ve been building, because the Sephora VIB sale for the winter is finally here! Please tell me I’m not the only one with a cart full. The holiday sale is THE place to grab your staples on sale, as well as new kits and lots of gift items! I’m breaking down my list, my wishes and what you should look for! This post contains affiliate links but all opinions are strictly my own.
So, let’s go over some of my all-time favorites that you need to snag, new holiday kits for the BEST value and maybe some gifts for your loves (maybe…).

Highlighter: Hourglass just released it’s 4th Edit of the ambient lighting palette. I have an older one and it is still my FAVE. Like, so gorgeous and you look glowing after using it. I swear all of the colors work for every skin tone. It’s a huge value.
Hair: I actually don’t purchase many hair products from Sephora, mostly because I run through product like water and I am indecisive. BUT I was asked for recommendations for hair products, and the ones I’ve heard the most positive reviews from people I TRUST are Amika and Briogeo. They both have awesome holiday sets and trial sizes so you can test them out!
Pumpkin goodies: Smelling like pumpkin is just my prerogative for fall. My favorite mask is from Peter Thomas Roth, and the mini in this awesome kit is more than enough reason to buy the whole kit! Also, Summer Fridays just came out with a new mask that smells almost the same as the PTR one, so win win. Pumpkin is brightening and refreshing, so definitely scoop these up!
Drunk Elephant: I can’t say it enough times- Drunk Elephant all the way. I have been using the DE products for over a year now and still love them. Their travel kits are incredible, because you get to try a bunch of products for a fraction of the price. The BEST thing is, usually half a pump of a product is plenty, so these “small” sizes actually last me a good 6 months. No joke. So buy up all the cute holiday ones, like this Night kit, this one…and this one! They’re all in my cart!
There are some other great holiday kits too if you’ve been dying to try a few products. I’d recommend this Kiehl’s one and this Tatcha one!
I’m stocking up on my staples too. Lately I can’t get enough of THIS Tarte mascara, THIS Korres moisturizer, THIS Tarte face wash, and the Bite agave lip mask. Oh, and my NARS creamy concealer.
Also, as far as badass holiday gifts go, if you can snag a Pat McGrath Labs special edition lipstick or lip trio, you’re a true goddess. I swear they’re like unicorns.
And a little PSA for you: if you’re going skiing for the winter, or even hitting the mountains, you NEED something with SPF. I know you think you’ve escaped it because it isn’t summer anymore, but the sun is stronger at higher altitudes, so you need to protect your skin. Stock up on this Korres SPF and my fave SuperGoop eye SPF. You’ll thank me in 10 years.
