These are my favorite purchases from my Sephora loot.

Origins High Potency Night-A-Mins Mineral Enriched Renewal Cream

$32 before discount

This cream is excellent for my combination skin.  It hydrates, without feeling greasy.  Almost makes your skin feel velvety soft.  

Here's what Sephora has to say:

Put dullness to rest. This night cream is fortified with a system of time-released resurfacers plus minerals, moisture-rich replenishers, and vitamins C, E, and H. Relaxing aromas lull you to sleep and skin sloughs away dry, dead layers. Dullness is deleted.

I completely agree.  When I wake up, my skin looks really bright & healthy! 

Murad Hydrating Toner

$24 before discount

I'm super excited about this product. 

Here's what Sephora has to say:

Murad Hydrating Toner rebalances and rehydrates skin while neutralizing surface impurities. It is a replenishing prep step that combats hormonal aging and helps moisturize and balance the skin.

I plan on keeping this in my gym bag to spray over my face after I work out on my lunch break.  I don't have enough time to wash my face and reapply makeup during that time, but I read in a review that this is great to perk up the skin during the day.  It has witch hazel in it, so it will absorb the oil off of my face, but it's hydrating at the same time.  Just for the record, this does not make your makeup budge if you spray it on top! It's super refreshing and wakes up your skin!

Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush in Exposed

$25 before discount

I own two other blushes in this line and they are amazing.  This particular color, however, I refused to try.  It just looked like a bronzer to me.  Recently, I've been hearing amazing things about this color and so I decided to order it.  Let me tell you, it may look brown in the pot, but on your skin, it looks rosy & gorgeous!  It has no shimmer in it, but it truly makes your skin glow.  Perfect for fall! I've never seen another color quite like it.

Here's what Sephora has to say:

Infused with natural clay harvested from the banks of the Amazon River and naturally baked by the sun, this nutrient-rich blush benefits all skin types for a fade-free flawless finish for an amazing 12 hours.

For oily skin types, Amazonian clay minimizes oil in and around pores to balance skin and keep product in place. Those with dry skin will benefit from the clay's nourishing and hydrating properties, which naturally restore skin's moisture.

Philosophy The Present

$25 before discount

This is called a "clear makeup" -it can be used as a primer or alone.  After it's applied, it makes your skin look so smooth and poreless.   Wait three minutes to let it set.  Then, apply your foundation and the rest of your makeup.  It holds your makeup better than any other primer I've tried! (and I've tried a lot!)  Plus, it costs less than other high-end primers and you get double the product!

Here's what Sephora has to say:

A colorless skin perfector that camouflages fine lines, wrinkles, and pores, and gives the skin a flawlessly airbrushed appearance.  The oil-free moisturizing essential primes skin for makeup and locks in hydration while keeping contaminants at bay. The result is a face that looks 100 percent better with 50 percent less makeup.

Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Cruella

$24 before discount

This lip liner/lip stick combo makes for the perfect red lip. 

Here's what Sephora has to say:

These pigment-rich sticks provide a matte, creamy finish that will not dry the lips. Enriched with emollients, vitamin E, and silicone, each gorgeous shade glides on and stays put.

I love the Sephora Friends and Family sale!
