If you’ve been on the internet in the last few weeks, you’ve likely had a slew of influencers going through their top picks for “The Sephora Sale.” Everyone knows that scoring beauty products at a discount is a never-event, so when Sephora has a sale, it’s an event to beauty lovers. Likewise, our Slack channel blows up with our editors sharing recommendations and screenshots of what’s in our carts. We try a lot of beauty products around here, so when we recommend something, rest assured that we really mean it.
In the name of savings, we’re taking our recommendations public. From now through April 15, all Sephora Rouge members can take 20% off their entire Sephora purchase, and starting April 9, VIB members can take 15% off, and Insiders can take 10% off their bill. Whether you’re finally picking up the product you’ve had your eye on or are doing a restock of your favorite products, now is the time to do it.
Finding a reliable eye cream that won’t break your budget is a major score. With a sale price sitting under $10, Inkey List’s Caffeine De-Puffing + Dark Circle Eye Cream sits well under concealer and is the perfect option if you want to simultaneously hydrate and brighten your under-eyes.
If you splurge on one skincare item during this sale, we highly recommend doing so on the Dr. Dennis Gross Universal Daily Peel Pads. The two-step, individually packaged pads combine AHAs and BHAs to smooth texture and reduce fine lines.
We’d never shy away from adding a new blush to our makeup bags, and if you don’t have the Patrick Ta Major Headlines Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush Duo yet, what are you waiting for? Apply it Patrick’s way by applying the powder first, then cream on top for a beautiful, radiant glow.

A leave-in conditioner is a must-have product in anyone’s haircare arsenal, and this one from COLOR WOW is your best bet. It contains an “adaptive technology” that transforms all hair types to deliver glossy hair (with no weigh-down) and protect from heat.
Our editors’ favorite product to stock up on during the Sephora Sale? Charlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood Flawless Filter. Use it under makeup for a blurring all-over glow that’s basically an Instagram filter IRL.
