SEPHORA Sale started yesterday – 6th Nov and when I received the invite I noticed the date I first shopped from SEPHORA back in 2009, it’s been 6 long years and many more to come. This time I really had hard time to access the sale as my friends who receives my stuff are here for their Diwali vacations and in spite having immediate family there I’m helpless .Anyways , I wish a shopping Santa listens to me and makes it easier for me to shop this time as well …. I want one right now!
Okay , so I suppose there are so many of you who are new to SEPHORA and to start off somewhere here is a small list for a must have product which you can pick blindly if you are new to SEPHORA just follow this list and I’m sure you will be hooked !
I hardly shopped in store and I remember clearly that my first purchase was online , just go to SEPHORA.com , sign up and you get a BI number which is Beauty Insider’s number , you can always get a card in store or get it delivered later . The shipping is free on $ 50 , BUT , if you Sign up for SEPHORA FLASH and pay $ 10 you will get free shipping for full whole year , which is so reasonable as I remember the number of sharpeners I collected to meet the threshold have more value .. So go for it first time buyers!
There are so many brands to choose from and to get confused , hence am penning down the ones you would not regret as the price point is average. I like to shop for brands like – NARS , URBAN DECAY , Make Up For Ever , Kat Von D , Bite Beauty and Hourglass from SEPHORA and not to forget SEPHORA in house brand for awesome brushes .
So here is my list, which I would buy and would always recommend to first time shoppers –
If I have 50 dollars to spend :
1 . KAT VON D Everlasting liquid lipstick (Available for $ 20 plus tax ) – Read review for LOLITA or MOTHER
2 . Urban Decay Afterglow blush – Rapture Buy for $ 26 plus tax from here
OR
Make Up For Ever HD Second skin Blush ( REVIEW HERE ) no 310 – $ 26 plus Tax – buy from here
It would be $ 46 plus tax which is almost $ 50
Option 2 :
If I have $ 75 to spend
1 . ESTEE LAUDER Envy Sculpting lipstick – $ 30 plus Tax – READ Review Here

or
NARS Audacious Lipstick – $ 32 plus Tax
2 . HOURGLASS Ambient Lighting blush – $ 35 plus tax ( buy here ) – HOURGLASS Review here
This comes to total of $ 65 – 67 plus Tax
My first product from SEPHORA was a DIOR Lipstick which I hardly use and since it’s my lucky charm I keep it safe, the brands you can try for the first time are URABN DECAY and NARS.
URBAN DECAY Revolution lipstick is my favourite and their new formula – matte revolution is equally great and also their new line of blush is amazing and last but not the least their 24/7 glide on pencils .
NARS Matte lip pencils are my absolute favourite, blushes, audacious lipsticks and their base makeup is equally amazing. READ NARS Review here

Sephora recently started an Australian website that ships to NZ as well…But, most of the items are way too pricey compared to US… I still shop via friends in US… they ship to me here in NZ. I have a long list..need to try some Katvon D…got myself hourglass ambient palette and ordered 2 hourglass blushes
