Sephora Sale 2026 Must-Haves
The Sephora sale 2026 is a great time to to stock up on the best Sephora products and everyday essentials. The biggest Sephora sales only happen twice a year, the Sephora Spring Sale and Sephora VIB Sale Holiday Savings Event which is normally late October to early November. Sephora VIB Rouge members have more sales throughout the year but these 2 Sephora Sales offer the biggest savings. These are my best of Sephora product picks for your face, hair and body and they’re all cruelty free. Including what I think is the best Sephora foundation which is the basis of all good makeup.

My Sephora essentials | Best in beauty VS misses | Beauty, skincare, hair & beauty must haves
Get ready with me as I go through my Sephora beauty essentials from must haves, to like but don’t need and total misses I regret buying. I’m really trying to be more conscientious with my buying habits and less wasteful, plus I can’t stand clutter.

These are my top Sephora everyday essentials. They’re all cruelty-free and great for Summer SPF care and a bronzed glow.

Sephora Beauty Must Haves for Summer
If you miss the Sephora Sale 2026 in Spring, these best Sephora products and beauty essentials are still worth investing in. I’ve tried literally thousands of products and keep updating this with my newest finds and favorites but these are what I’m using right now.
- Tan Luxe Self Tanning Drops – a vegan, cruelty free and easy way to add color gradually and to keep your tan topped up. I’ve also tried Isle of Paradise but that streaks more and doesn’t last as long. I use Medium/Dark as I like a deeper color.
- Charlotte Tilbury Eye Pencil – this shimmering bronze color works as both a liner and eyeshadow.
- Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation – long lasting, even coverage to help minimize the look of fine lines.
- Charlotte Tilbury Setting Powder – use sparingly to keep makeup in place without looking cakey.
- Supergoop Glow Screen SPF 40 Face – my holy grail skincare product that means you can skip foundation most days and use this for a gorgeous golden glow, SPF and primer in 1.
- Kosas Concealer – I’ve tried so many concealers as they’re starting to settle in my lines more as I’m getting older. This one’s creamy and settles in lines the least of the ones I’ve tried. I go between this and Tarte Shape Tape (Ulta), you can’t go wrong with either.
- Charlotte Tilbury Bronze and Glow – contour, bronze and highlight in one. This mini version is perfect for packing on vacation.
- Dyson Airwrap Styler Dyson Airwrap Review | How to use Dyson Airwrap Tutorial, Everything You Need to Know!
- Iconic London Prep Set Glow Spray – Use this as a primer and setting spray for hydrated glowing skin. It also smells heavenly!
- Urban Decay Eye Primer – the fool proof way to keep your eyeshadow in place during the Summer heat.
- Tarte Opening Act Lash Primer If you want longer and thicker looking lashes I swear by this cruelty free lash primer. It works with any mascara.

With over 15 years of industry experience spanning professional performance, fashion styling, beauty formulation and fitness, Eve brings a level of genuine expertise to her content that goes well beyond standard blogging. Beauty and skincare expertise: Eve's beauty device coverage is backed by direct brand access that most independent reviewers don't have. She has had one-on-one training with Melanie Simon, founder of ZIIP Halo, giving her a deeper technical understanding of microcurrent and nanocurrent technology than any spec sheet can provide. She has had in-person education with CurrentBody directly and attended an exclusive Zoom masterclass with Dr Jason Diamond on the launch of his Metacine Eyelift. She is also the founder of Dawes Custom Cosmetics, a triple award-winning cruelty-free luxury cosmetics line - winning Best Custom-Blended Cosmetics Business USA and the LUX Customer Service Excellence Award Las Vegas, which gives her professional beauty formulation training that informs every product review she writes.

This performance background gave her a unique eye for style, fit and how clothing moves on the body - which underpins everything she writes about fashion. She has collaborated with Revolve, Faviana, and designer Debbie Carroll, and has over 50 designer bags in her personal collection, making her designer handbag and luxury fashion coverage genuinely authoritative rather than aspirational.
