Makeup artist-approved Sephora sale picks

Beautyblender Original Makeup Sponge

Renée Loiz, celebrity makeup artist and founder of Color May Vary, insists on snapping up this beauty classic, which she calls the “original makeup sponge.” “The Beautyblender is second to none when it comes to giving skin a smooth and flawless finish,” she explains. “It works seamlessly with any foundation or cream product and is super easy to clean and reuse. It also prevents product waste, saving you money in the long run.”

Tower 28 SOS Daily Rescue facial spray

“If you have sensitive skin or eczema, this facial mist is a real game changer,” says Loiz. “It soothes irritation, reduces redness and supports skin health with a clean, gentle formula. One of my clients with acne-prone and sensitive skin swears by it – it’s the only product that smooths and soothes her skin. Use it daily as part of your winter routine to protect your skin from dryness and harsh weather conditions.

Danessa Myricks Beauty Colorfix eye, cheek and lip cream pigment

Loiz can’t resist a great multitasking product. “With a wide range of shades and finishes, they are perfect for eyes, cheeks and lips. The color payoff is incredible and lasts all day without fading or drying out the skin. They blend effortlessly with a brush and are great for creating vibrant winter looks.”

Tatcha The Dewy Skin Cream

“A lifesaver for dry skin during the winter months, this cream provides a healthy, dewy glow without feeling greasy,” notes Loiz. “It’s a staple in my kit and my clients rave about how it prepares their skin beautifully for makeup. It keeps your skin hydrated and glowing.”

Biossance Rose Brightening and Firming Facial Oil

Celebrity makeup artist and esthetician Michelle Radow loves nothing more than a “hydrating, lightweight, and non-greasy” formula like this oil, whose squalene is derived from sugar instead of sharks. “This item is never on sale or discounted and will last you a long time,” she explains. She “drips” it into her foundation or concealer when her complexion is “a little dull and needs some lift.”

Dior Backstage Glow Face Palette

Radow suggests using this “anywhere you need a shine or highlight, especially in the winter.” It’s “beautiful on every skin tone” and you can “use each color individually or mix them together for a custom look. Apply to cheekbones, bridge of nose, Cupid’s bow, or chin.”

Shani Darden Skin Care “It all starts with the Retinol Starter Kit.”

“This retinol and lactic acid combination set really works and I can visibly see a difference in the morning with regular use,” says Radow. “Everyone needs to exfoliate two to three times a week, especially in the winter months! Retinol is the gold standard for promoting cell renewal.” She also warns you to “always wear sunscreen, especially if you use retinol.”

Makeup by Mario Mini Sculpt & Pop On-The-Go Set

“Who doesn’t love a mini?” asks celebrity make-up artist Elaina Badro. “These are buildable, so they’re great to take with you on the go and reapply. This is an award-winning limited edition contour and blusher set that is worth purchasing.”

Kérastase Elixir Ultime refillable moisturizing hair oil

“It’s actually one of my favorite products and smells absolutely amazing,” explains Badro. “The oil is formulated with wild camellia to smooth frizz and boost shine – definitely what we need for the winter months!”

Color Wow Dream Coat Duo

“Winter is brutal on your hair, especially color-treated hair,” warns Glossed Finishing Studio and The Bridal Beauty Team owner Kate Johnson. “This product is aptly named Dream Coat. Spray it on your hair before blow-drying for smooth, shiny, silky but not heavy, gorgeous strands.”

Honey-infused, moisturizing lip oil from Gisou

Johnson calls this lip oil the ultimate “hydration station.” She loves that it “moisturizes without being sticky and provides a sheer color shine that’s perfect for a natural radiance.” It’s also available in shimmer and high-shine finishes.

Patrick Ta Major is making headlines with the Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush Duo

For Johnson, longevity is key when it comes to makeup, and this duo is her top choice. “Even if you like a muted color, your cheeks need to last all day. To do this, apply the cream blush directly to the foundation and then set it with the same color powder before setting the rest of your face with face powder. It’s winter, so don’t be afraid to try something lighter that will give your skin the redness you’re looking for.”

Summer Fridays lip butter balm

“My lips get so dry in the winter, and this balm is a game-changer,” enthuses makeup pro and Glam On Demand founder Ashley Novak. “The formula is rich, buttery and keeps my lips hydrated all day long. Plus it smells amazing!”

Benefit Cosmetics The Porefessional Kaolin Clay Mask

“I reach for this mask whenever my skin feels congested,” explains Novak. “It’s powerful but doesn’t leave my face feeling tight or dry, which is so important in winter. After using it, my skin feels so clean and smooth.”

Sunday Riley Good Genes All-In-One AHA Lactic Acid Treatment

According to Novak, this effective treatment has “transformed” her skin. “I use it a few times a week to smooth texture and brighten my complexion. It’s a must-have to keep my skin glowing even when it’s freezing outside.”

Amika Hydro Rush Intense Moisture Hair Mask

“My hair craves moisture in the colder months, and this mask delivers every time,” says Novak. “My strands feel so soft and manageable without weighing them down. If you struggle with dryness or frizz, you’ll thank me!”

Dae Cactus Fruit 3-in-1 styling cream with taming wand

Novak says, “This product has been a game-changer for every hair routine. The styling cream moisturizes and provides just the right amount of hold, while the taming wand is perfect for smoothing out flyaway hair. It’s a lifesaver on busy mornings.”

“I love this hairdryer because it is an investment that really makes a big difference in everyday life,” says makeup artist and hairdresser at CoverClap, Maria Jones. “The controlled high-velocity airflow allows for quick drying and is less damaging due to the heat, perfect for those who value long-term hair health. I tend to recommend this to customers who want salon-level results in the comfort of their own homes, and I believe this sale is the best time to score this item at a discount.

In winter, I find it to be the perfect companion for holiday parties and date nights as its creamy formula never dries out on the lips. ”
