What I got at the Sephora VIB & Rouge Sale!
Hi guys, I know I've been slacking on posting at the time I usually do, but I really prefer to post when I'm completely happy with a post, even if it does delay the post by a few hours/ a day.
As most of you know, last week was the Sephora VIB & VIB Rouge sale! I didn't really make a wish list about the items I wanted, because there are constantly so many items I want, that I thought that post would be wayy too long. Today, I am going to talk to you about the items I did end up purchasing!
This time around, I decided to only buy what I actually needed, instead of buying a whole bunch of lippies and eyeshadow palettes (which I really wanted to do, but had some self-control this time around). I had run out of my favorite skincare products, and had to stock up. Let's get right into what I bought!
Beauty Blender
Okay, so this product isn't skincare, but my Real Techniques sponge had just starting ripping, and it was time for a new one! I was a little skeptical. I didn't think there was going to be a sponge that did the job as well or even better than the RT sponge. I was wrong. It's crazy. My makeup comes out flawlessly. I can't believe it! Why did it take me so long to buy one? I didn't really want to spend the money when the RT sponge was doing the job just fine. I don't know if it's worth it yet, but I'm loving it, and for 15% off, I really can't complain too much.
Even though its's super obvious, I want to state that, yes, I did use the Beauty Blender before taking these pictures, and no, I didn't clean the sponge before taking the actual pictures. One, I'm too lazy, and two, I didn't want to re-wet the sponge when I wasn't going to do my makeup today.
Ole Henriksen Truth Serum
I had finished the Peter Thomas Roth Potent-C Serum, and I was trying to figure out, which of the two I was going to rebuy. When it came down to it, the Ole Henricksen Truth Serum worked amazingly with my skin and came with more product for the cost. While I loved the Potent-C Serum, I couldn't justify the cost.
I got a deluxe sample of this product a while back, and I fell in love with the product. I even got a promo code for an extra 10-day supply. I knew that eventually I was going to buy the full size. They have two sizes, and I decided to get the large size. Definitely don't regret it at all.
Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask
This product has been hyped up by so many influencers, that I had to see if the hype was real. I'm always looking for masks to hydrate my skin, especially for when I go traveling. I suffer from extremely dry skin, and when I go on planes, my skin is definitely not happy with me.
I bought this mask, and while I've only used it once, omg it's done my skin wonders. I honestly have no other words. It works!
**note that I was a little surprised by the size of the tube. Online and in pictures it looked much bigger...just saying**
First Aid Beauty Kona Eye Stick
I wasn't originally planning on buying this product. I heard of this product because of Patricia Bright. She was talking about how it used to do her eyes wonders, and when I searched the product I was really interested in it's effects. So this little stick looks like a chapstick! You put the product on your under eyes, and it's supposed to brighten, depuff, and decrease the look of wrinkles. It's non-scented, and I absolutely love it. I literally roll it under my eyes in the morning and at night. It's super simple to use, and I feel like my eyes just look happier in terms of me not looking sleepy! My eyes are simply loving it. I really recommend you check it out!
So these are the products I purchased during the sale. Did you guys buy anything? Let me know in the comments down below! As always, thank you for reading. Have a wonderful day/night. Sending you love, strength, and positivity!

First Aid Beauty Kona Eye Stick Sounds like a perfect product for me. My under-eyes require so much concealer in the morning! I use to try and freeze green tea bags to help them de-puff. I always wish there were Sephora stores near where I live. I went into one in Barcelona and I just wanted to buy everything! xx
Lmfaooo guess it’s time to go back to spain
, orrrr just come and visit me 
Wow, looks like you got some lovely stuff! I've heard so much about Sephora recently but I've yet to try any of their products... they sound amazing though so I must give them a try!

Sephora sells lots of brands (If you have trouble finding skincare, you might have a better chance getting it there)! They send to sell higher end products (no drugstore products, which is something to keep in mind. Thanks so much for reading and commenting Kate

Do they have a website you can maybe check out :)? xx
The shipping is so expensive unfortunately!
I'm so sorry to hear that babe! I hope there are other places where you can maybe get a hold of these products and so many more! xxx
Ooo I like what you got!! I feel like I always have luck with Ole Herickson products so I feel u on that. And lord knows I’ll need an eye stick soon like that one haha. So do u like the beauty blender better than the real techniques? Xx Jen
I love every single Ole Henriksen product I’ve ever used! And i like the beauty blender better! It’s crazy for me to admit this, because i always thought I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference in application, but i can definitely tell
