I Spent 3 Hours Shopping at Sephora—Here's Every Product I Left With

If you're anything like me, you've been a Sephora Insider for, well, forever. You probably also wait all year for the Sephora Savings Event. In preparation for this year's sale, I spent three (yes, three) hours shopping at Sephora to find the best products across skincare, makeup, hair, and fragrance categories. You can call it an irresponsible use of time, but I call it research. I'm a beauty editor, and seeking out the best in beauty is quite literally part of my job.

On my most recent trip to Sephora, I walked the hallowed halls and found some seriously stellar items. I'm talking about a lightweight sunscreen that neither pills nor leaves a white cast, a high-pigmented lip color that feels like butter on your lips, and a hair mask that leaves your strands bouncy and moisturized without residue. As I said, these products are stellar.

The best part? They're on sale. Rouge members receive 20% off and early access to the sale on April 5, VIB members receive 15% off starting April 9, and finally, Beauty Insiders receive 10% off starting April 9. Use the code YAYSAVE at checkout.
