Sephora Favorites Sets : share your thoughts, questions and pics

laketom — Thu, 30 Mar 2023 14:55:30 GMT

a place to post about all things Sephora Favorites sets: past, present and future. Have a question, please ask. Have a review, please post. Have pics, please show us. These sets are one of my favorite things about shopping at Sephora. I get to try a bunch of products for a lower price and always end up finding some HG items.

Today, I got the Sephora Favorites: Beauty on the Fly. It was $42 plus ebates was at 8%. For me, I've either been wanting to try all of these items, or have tried and really like them.

More pics and thoughts in the first post.

Today I got the Beauty on the Fly set in the mail. It was $42 and valued at $118 with a price of $52 CAN and value of $148 CAN. I can say that I have been wanting to try every product or have already tried and loved it.

Im most exited for the SR Luna oil, KS ExfoliKate and the Jurlique rose water mist. Rose may be an ingredient that my skin doesn't like but I still want to try it. Since it's a mist, I can try it and it will be sanitized to pass along to my sister or a friend if it makes my skin itch.

Already, I use the La Vanila healthy deodorant so I'm happy to have a travel sized one. And I tried the L'Occitane from a point perk and know I love it. This size is much bigger than the point perk. Much bigger!

everything comes in a sturdy zippered pouch:

here's a picture of the back with a list of everything included: the inside flap has a list of all ingredients too

And a pic of the contents:

Another score for Sephora!

anybody try this set already?

This kit looks incredible. Sephora is killing it with all the Favorites sets right now. Other than the perfumes or ones I do not already own, I really would not mind picking up any of them. I have quite a few of these, so I am passing. It is a really great set though.

Even though the Sun Safety Kit (which will probably release on the 15th) goes down in value every year, I think it it totally worth it. I value it at $116.76 plus the bag, so it may be worth the $127 Sephora quotes. Sephora donates $20 to the Skin Cancer Foundation, so they probably lose money on this bag (even if all the companies donate the samples). The bag and packaging coupled with the costs to make the sale have to eat the rest.

I got this set online, had to return it since the Luna oil leaked all over everything 😞

Thanks for posting the release date, I've been stalking the site for this set. I'll definitely get this one and maybe some as gifts. Nothing says "I love you" as sun safety - haha! But seriously, it's so useful anyone would enjoy it.

Oh that's a bummer. I bought it online too and read reviews where the Luna oil had leaked. It was the first thing I checked and was all good. The Luna, Tarte and Jurlique were wrapped up together in bubble wrap.

Hope you were able to pick one up in store.

Yes so many good sets right now. I haven't tried any of the perfume ones as I'm overly sensitive to scent. I do get the cologne one once a year for my guy. He loves trying the different samples then getting the full size of his favorite. And I like getting a promo while buying a gift!

My favorite and IMO best Sephora Favorites set was from 2013 years ago now over the summer. It was $75 I believe. Full sized NARS Orgasm, Stila Liner, AND Benefit They're Real! Josie Maran Agran Oil (this is when the love affair began), Buxom Dolly, Hourglass primer, ExfoliKate, MUFE HD Loose Powder, Sephora eyeshadow trio, and a fragrance (I remember this being the only dud, I didn't like it and gave it away). None of the Favorites Sets has come close to impressing me like that one did.

Full discloser: I did have to Google it to jog my memory of specifically which products were in it, but I remembered most of them before I needed to look!

My favorite set was the In The Glow set they had out a few years ago during the holidays. It had a variety of blushes ranging from cream to powder. It also included highlighters and a bronzer. I'm on Sephora website daily and Sephora Favorites is usually the first thing I check out when searching for something new.

This was mine too! I really wish they would release something similar again.

Yes! This was a great sampler!

I'm hopeful too! There's been so many great products that have come out since then I'd love to try new items. As with most of the sets the packaging was also so pretty with the ribbon to close the box.

I personally thought the "Give Me Nude Lip" set was amazing. For $25 I got to try a handful of lip products. They all complemented my skin well and introduced me to some new favorites.

Another recent set I enjoyed was the 2016 "Bronze Bares All" set. Included was a full size Bare Mineral Moxie gloss, Smashbox eyeliner, and a Laura Mercier Caviar Stick. All of these have become new staples in my routine. For $40, I thought this set really offered great value and versatility.

Sounds like a great one. I love it when you find new HG items from a sample set. I love JM Argan oil too, I always have it in an easy to reach place. The Beauty on the Fly set has the ExfoliKate, which I've read great things about but hadn't tried before.

Oh please Sephora, create another set like this one! A year ago, I never wore blush or highlighter and now my favorite makeup item to buy is blush.

Re: Sephora Favorites Sets : share your thoughts, questions and pics

laketom — Sat, 11 Jun 2016 03:54:40 GMT

I bought both of these sets too. Great value in both of them. The Tarte lipstick in the Bronze Bares All is beautiful and I love, love, love the gold caviar stick. The eyeliner has been tricky for me, I find it skips but it must be my eye lids. The color is pretty tho.

Agree on the Give Me Some Nude Lip set. I especially love the Nars shade and formula. For $25, you can't beat it!

I know what you mean. I'm almost obsessive about checking for any new favorites sets. The second I see a new one I buy it immediately. FOMO haunts me big time if I don't **bleep** those favorites up!

Any thoughts on the Summer Hair Saviors set? It's sold out online, but was thinking of getting it in-store. I might just put that money toward the Sun Safety kit, though--it'll last much longer.

I'm considering getting this set! I have or want to try most of the item in it but keep debating it
