Sephora VIB Sale Wishlist

Loyal beauty junkies know that early November marks a thrilling and fevered time of year, the annual Sephora VIB Sale. During this time, all VIBs are offered 20% off the entire store, which is terribly difficult to pass up. In light of this impending fiesta, I've put together a sizeable wishlist that reflects just how many amazing offerings can be found at Sephora at the moment (as well as the vastness of my insatiable beauty cravings ;)):


NudeStix Lip + Cheek Pencils and Magnetic Eye Colours
I've heard great things about this new beauty brand- who doesn't love soft, pigmented formulas in handy pencil packaging?! Super interested to try both of these products! 

Bite Beauty Luminous Creme Lipstick
As a lipstick fiend, it's a travesty that I haven't tried these babies yet. Bold, saturated colour with food-grade ingredients- come to mama. 

YSL Fusion Ink Foundation
I sampled this a while back and was so impressed! Truly lightweight formula with excellent coverage and long wear. My oily skin loved it. 

NARS Audacious Lipsticks
I've swatched these in-store and the texture and pigmentation are incredible. I've been especially tempted by Grace, a vibrant warm coral pink.

Marc Jacobs Style Eye-Con Night Owl Palette
We all know I'm obsessed with my Marc Jacobs The Siren palette, and this new option for Fall looks equally as mesmerizing. Full of beautiful warm, smokey tones. 

Josie Maran Winter Dreams Argan Colour Collection
I'm a huge fan of the Coconut Watercolour Eye Shadows, so am super eager to try more makeup from this brand. This kit features a little bit of everything!

Bumble & Bumble Bb Texture Hair Undressing Creme
I recently finished a sample tube of this and I found it to be the perfect product for adding mess and volume to my wavy hair. One of the best styling products I've tried! 

Too Faced Melted Kisses Set
I've also sampled these in-store and they offer the most lovely glossy, bold colour. This set would be the perfect way to sample most of the shades! 

First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Pads
Have heard so many raves about these in the blogosphere. Love that they're alcohol-free and gentle enough to use every day! Sounds like a perfect exfoliant for wintertime. 

Fresh Skincare Idols Set
I've been super impressed with the Fresh skin care goodies I've tried so far, and this kit looks like a luxurious way to sample a few more. 

Marc Jacobs The Sky-Liner Petite Highliner Collection
I have a Highliner in Stone Fox and am a huge fan of the texture and shimmery finish. This set seems like such a great deal!

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette
I'm a loyal lover of the Ambient Lighting Powder in Dim Light and I've seriously hit pan on mine. Relishing the idea of having Dim Light alongside two other beautiful powders!

Clinique A Black Honey Affair Palette
I've heard great things about the shadow palettes Clinique has been releasing lately and I'm loving the look of this one! A pretty selection of neutrals and plums. 

REN Flash Rinse 1-Minute Facial
REN is another brand that has totally wowed me and it's hard to argue with a super quick, gentle but effective brightening treatment. Bring on the Vitamin C!

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush Palette
I was so happy to see that this palette didn't contain Radiant Magenta or Diffused Heat, both of which I already own and absolutely adore. You just can't have too many of these beautiful blushes!

Urban Decay Naked Basics 2
What wishlist would be complete without an Urban Decay palette?! I never picked up the original Naked Basics, but this second installment is looking rather tempting. My shadow collection could use more mattes like these.


Phew! I'm definitely sweating (drooling? hyperventilating?) in the wake of this giant wishlist. I obviously won't be picking up all of these goodies, but I'm sure a fine selection will be creeping their way into my stash. I sometimes wish I could be stronger in the face of a sale, but with offerings this gorgeous, call me a sucker!

Are you tempted by any of these goodies? What's on your Sephora sale/holiday wishlist?

Thanks for dropping by! :)

  1. Ahh so jealous of the people who get to shop Sephora VIB sales!!! I am really eyeing NARS Digital World, not least because the stunning set is a Sephora-exclusive. That Hourglass blush palette would be great to own as well!

  6. Is that a new bite set I didn't know about?? I want it now.

    I recently bought that Marc Jacobs liner set and it's so pretty. Haven't tested it out yet but all the swatches I've done in store of these liners has them staying put.

    Both those Hourglass palettes are a must!

    I want to try those First Aid pads too.

    I'm curious about that YSL foundation but want to try Dior Star just that little bit more. Hmm but a sale is a sale...

    Geez my wish list is so huge haha.

    1. Haha, at least we can empathize with our ridiculously long lists :) I tested the Dior Star a couple days ago- it's quite lovely, but the YSL holds up better on my oily skin!

    2. Oh, and that might be an old Bite set, unfortunately. There were very few stock photos to choose from, so I went with it :P
