The Best of the Sephora Savings Event Sale

What is the Sephora Savings Event Sale?

Each spring, Sephora hosts a huge savings event with their different tiers of Beauty Insiders. Essentially, the sale is open to anyone who has an account with Sephora (click here to join now!). The sale begins for Beauty Insiders based on their level of membership, with higher tiers enjoying more of a discount for a longer period of time. The Sephora Beauty Insider Sale runs for two weeks, starting today for Rouge level members, and runs through April 15.

Use the code “YAYSAVE” at checkout for discounts!

For ease of planning, here are the dates that the sale becomes available for each level:

Rouge Members – 20% off from 4/5/2024 – 4/15/2024
VIB Members – 15% off from 4/9/2024 – 4/15/2024
Insider Members – 10% off from 4/9/2024 – 4/15/2024

It is worth noting, too, that there is a 30% off sale going on this whole time for all tiers on Sephora Collection products. Just use code YAYSAVE with those products, as well! Read up on some of my favorite Sephora Collection products here!

I love to use sales like this as a time to stock up on staple beauty products I use year-round. For me, I focus on foundations, primers, sunscreens, and the pricier skin care oils and moisturizers I like to use. Here, I’m sharing a number of my favorites from Sephora. This also includes some great sets and deals that will only be better with the sale!

Top Deals from the Beauty Insider Sale

Foundations, Concealers, & Powders

First and foremost, foundation is…well, foundational. That’s why I am planning on picking up another SC Microsmooth Baked Powder and ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint. These are two of my most-used beauty products for daily wear.

Beyond those, I am in the market for a new bronzer and blush set. I’m intrigued by the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick Highlighter. While I definitely need a new blush-bronzer more than a highlighter, the Bobbi Brown option seems to be a bit of a sparkly hybrid of the two. I might pop into a store and compare them ahead of the sale just in case.

Eye Makeup

I’m finally wearing out some of my older eyeshadow palettes, so I have my eye (ha) on a new one from Urban Decay. The Mini Naked3 Eyeshadow Palette is a super versatile option, with a good mix of sparkle and matte. However, the Urban Decay Naked Wild West Eyeshadow Palette is really calling my name. That dark green, though! That’s my color!

Beyond eyeshadow, I am loving the SC 12 Hour Contour Pencil Eyeliner I tried in my recent Sephora Collection review. It adds a nice little polish without much extra effort. Same goes for the Anastasia Ombre Effect Brow Powder Duo. This is great for a more defined, dramatic brow, especially when paired with a nice curling mascara.
