Sephora’s Spring Sale Ends Tonight—Shop These 37 Editor-Approved Deals Before They’re Gone

Summer Fridays’ ShadeDrops is by far the best face sunscreen I’ve tried. It goes on like a serum and sinks into your skin without leaving any hint of a white cast or feeling greasy.

Drunk Elephant’s Bora Barrier Repair Cream is a game-changer for dry, irritation-prone skin. “The texture of this cream is much thicker than other options from the brand, but it melts effortlessly into my skin and doesn’t feel greasy,” notes commerce editor Katherine Louie.

For a natural-looking glow heading into summer, I highly recommend this Tan-Luxe self-tanner. It develops in just a few hours (so you don’t have to sleep in it overnight), and rarely creates streaks.

Supergoop Play is my favorite body sunscreen, so I’m planning on picking up this jumbo container while it’s on sale. The formula blends in easily without leaving a trace and it isn’t greasy or sticky like some other sunscreens. We also named it the best sunscreen overall in our Forbes Vetted Best Product Awards for the second year in a row, so you know it has to be good.

Audience development director Spencer Dukoff says that while this cleanser is technically his wife’s, he also uses it daily. He notes that the citrus scent makes him feel energized yet calm, and leaves his skin feeling clean but not stripped.

Packed with vitamin C, turmeric and evening primrose oil, this Sunday Riley face oil brightens, hydrates and combats signs of aging. Partnerships director Madeline Kaufman says that she’s a fan of this product because in addition to being effective, it smells great—unlike many vitamin C serums.

Managing editor Emmy Favilla can’t praise this lightweight and hydrating serum enough. “I apply it after my daily moisturizer, even if I’m not wearing any face makeup, because it provides a subtle luminous glow,” she says.

I’ve been using this Fresh cleanser for the past eight years, and I don’t plan on stopping. The gentle formula expertly removes makeup—including stubborn mascara—without leaving my skin feeling stripped and tight. 

Louie calls this exfoliating serum a game changer for her combination, acne-prone skin. “I’ve noticed a huge difference since I incorporated it into my nightly skincare routine," she says. “It gently exfoliates and brightens without causing irritation or dryness (two common side effects of many products targeting acne).”

Senior reviews editor Anna Perling calls Supergoop’s Protec(tint) Suncreen one of her holy grail products. The formula is light, protective and gentle on her sensitive skin: “It has a Goldilocks amount of coverage to blur blemishes and help with redness without making it look like I’m wearing too much makeup,” she says. 

This bestseller is our pick for the best pore minimizer overall. The leave-on formula works to unclog pores, target uneven texture, minimize fine lines and more. Assistant deals editor Jordan Thomas recently picked up a bottle and says she’s been surprised by how gentle it is on her sensitive skin. 

This hand cream is nourishing and moisturizing with a warm and spicy scent. Deputy editor and beauty expert Jane Sung says the added retinol makes it an excellent hand cream for overnight repair. “This one is heavily scented if you like that; I prefer the unscented version,” she adds. 

We named this LED face mask the best of the best for its versatility, comfort and overall effectiveness. It can target a variety of skin concerns—like acne and signs of aging—and offers short, three-minute sessions. 

Previously only available in Australia and Europe, this sunscreen brand is one of Sung’s all-time favorites. “The formulas are so elegant and nice to apply—my favorites are the Supreme Screen (for a chemical sunscreen) and Future Screen (if you prefer mineral/unscented),” she says. 

Over the past two years, I’ve noticed a massive uptick in compliments on my skin—and I’m convinced that this product is the reason why. The lightweight formula cancels out underlying redness and leaves me with a bright, glowy complexion. It’s the perfect base for my daily no-makeup makeup look.

Three of our editors swear by this Tower 28 concealer.  After struggling to find a long-lasting concealer that didn’t dry out her under eye area, Senior strategy editor Katie Simpson says this hydrating formula is her new go-to. "[It] lasts all day without creasing or separating, plus blends beautifully with the rest of my face products," she says.

I ditched my favorite powder blush for this liquid option from Rare Beauty and I haven’t looked back. The formula is ultra-pigmented, but as long as you apply it sparingly it creates a flattering, natural flush. I’ll be using the Sephora sale as an excuse to pick this blush up in a couple more shades.

Louie has been using this lip liner for years, and always picks up a backup during Sephora’s Savings Events. “It helps my lip products last all day and it’s super easy to blend. I’ve even worn this liner by itself when I’m going for a more natural, clean look and it stays put—even after eating and sipping on matcha for several hours,” she says.

This lightweight complexion stick is another one of my everyday makeup essentials. I typically use it as under eye concealer because it’s very blendable and has great staying power. That said, it can also double as foundation if you’d like.

If you’re feeling a little pale coming out of winter, Louie recommends adding some of these bronzing drops to your favorite moisturizer. “I was afraid they’d make me look orange, but I was pleasantly surprised by how flattering these bronzing drops are—I get compliments on how glowy my skin looks all the time now,” she says.

If you’re looking for a subtle highlighter that’ll earn you compliments on your skin, beauty & fashion commerce writer Molly Calhoun recommends this Westman Atelier one. “A little goes a long way with this, and it make me look glowy but not overly so. Every time I wear it people tell me my skin looks great,” she explains.

This foundation is a new addition to executive strategy editor Lindsay Boyers’ makeup kit. “As my skin has matured, foundations have started to look cakey and flat," she says. “This formula sits on the skin so nicely, offers buildable coverage and gives you a radiant glow.” Pro tip: A little goes a long way. Boyers says a single pump is enough to provide medium coverage for her whole face. 

Perling says Sung turned her onto this Tarte mascara and she’s never going back. “This formula is magical: It defines and lifts my lashes beautifully, without clumping or bleeding," she says. Use a single swipe for a little extra drama and definition or layer it up “for extra oomph.”

"Cream and liquid blush have been a staple in my makeup bag for the past year, but Saie’s SuperSuede Talc-Free Powder Blush has brought me back to powder blush full force," says Louie. “It has the smoothest, silkiest texture that blends well and gives my cheeks a diffused wash of color.” Pro tip: Her favorite shade at the moment is Ciao, great for achieving a natural sun-kissed glow.

If you’re looking for a lengthening and volumizing mascara, Boyers says this Tower 28 formula lives up to its name. “It’s just dramatic enough while still looking natural, and it lasts all day,” she says. “Other mascaras irritate my eyes after a couple of hours, but this one doesn’t dry or clump and looks and feels good until I take it off at night.”

Baby and kids gear editor Esther Carlstone keeps this Ilia liner in her purse. “Unlike other lip crayons I’ve tried in the past, it glides on super smooth, doesn’t flake, and is very pigmented,” she says. “It lasts a few hours and there are tons of shades that complement cool-toned faces.”

I’d heard great things about this shampoo for years, but I wasn’t convinced any shampoo could be worth $53 for a single bottle. Unfortunately for my wallet, I was wrong. I genuinely notice a difference when I wash my hair with this Oribe shampoo—it leaves my strands silkier and shinier than the drugstore alternative I was using before.

If you’re in need of a new hair dryer, the Dyson Supersonic is worth the hype. Our beauty team named it the best luxury hair dryer, and I can attest that it allows me to dry my hair a lot faster than a traditional blow dryer. Plus, it’s lightweight and fairly quiet, which makes the whole process a bit more pleasant. The latest Nural edition from Dyson includes additional sensors that are supposed to help further protect your scalp and hair from heat damage.

This K18 hair mask has been all over my TikTok For You Page, and executive director of commerce, business development and partnerships Alexis Caldwell says it’s worth adding to your cart. Her stylist recommended the treatment because her blonde hair has been feeling extra damaged recently, and Caldwell says it’s made all the difference. Just keep in mind that when it comes to application, less is more.

Give your dry, itchy scalp a little TLC with this Briogeo hair oil. “I just started using this product and I absolutely love it. The formula is soothing, moisturizing and easy to apply thanks to the pointed tip,” says Louie.

This Ouai hair mask works so well, I’ve repurchased it at least eight times. Every few days, I apply it from my roots to my ends in place of conditioner and I find that it leaves me with softer, smoother strands. I used to struggle with tangle-prone hair and adding this product to my routine has made that a nonissue.

Here’s another hair mask worth checking out. Updates writer Claire Eptin says, "It really makes my hair feel so much smoother and silkier. It has a really yummy scent, and only takes around five minutes to work its magic.”

Senior home and kitchen editor Amanda Arnold says she is hooked on this texturizing spray. “Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray gives my fine, straight hair a much-needed boost," she says. Although it’s more expensive than your average texturizing spray, Arnold says it only takes a few sprays to revitalize her strands—so one bottle should last a while. 

Don’t forget to stock up on a few bottles of your routine staples while they’re on sale. This Davines shampoo is on Louie’s list. “I’ve been using [this shampoo] for years…I love that it cleanses my hair without stripping my scalp and leaving it dry,” she says.

When Sung recommends a product, we listen. This hair oil is a new favorite in her haircare routine. “It’s so lightweight…smells subtly wonderful and leaves my hair soft and shiny,” she says. 

Louie loves this Dae styling cream. It adds extra shine to her hair without weighing it down or leaving behind an oily residue. “It also tames frizz and smells amazing! I keep the mini size in my purse for quick touch-ups when I’m on the go,” she says.

This strengthening and hydrating serum is our beauty editors’ choice for the best scalp treatment for hair growth. Effective and easy to use, the serum works to revitalize hair stem cells to promote thicker strands.
