Sephora Favorites Sets : share your thoughts, questions and pics

[laketom]

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.

I agree. I have or have tried must of this before. Not worth it for me.

I agree with your assessment of this kit @Kim888. I guess I just have too much makeup. I am hoping for either a sampler from Charlotte Tilbury or a good point perk.

I just looked at the link and it says the certificate is for a travel-size, not a full-size product.  I know there are a ton of samples, but does that seem right for a $65 Favorites box?  I'd be all over this if full-size...

If you look at the full list, either on the product page or in Cindy's post above, all of the sizes you can redeem for are 1oz or larger. "Travel size" for a perfume is typically .25-.33 oz or so.

I missed the Sephora favs from last year. Liked the boxes. I felt like they were gotta haves. This year I feel like I can pass. Hoping the holiday boxes will be exciting 

[angelicad]

Saw this for sale on eBay. I wonder if it's a new set that's coming up. The items look new. So it doesn't look like an old set.

[bonafide11]

That Boscia mask is in every set! Also I think everyone and their whole family have foils/samples of that Smashbox primer. Pick some new stuff Sephora!

[playingdressup]

Hi @angelicad, this set is available at JC Penny for $45! (Though I would call your store first to make sure it is in stock). How shady that the eBay seller photoshopped out the parts of the box with that info. It contains some great products! 

[angelicad]

Thanks. I will ask the next time I go in.

Whoa, this really got dragged. Can't say I disagree, though... I've gotten every one of these items except the lashes and ABH lippie from a promo or a Play! box in the past six months.

They should have called it a starter kit or something instead. It's not a bad collection if you never go to Sephora but the price is way off.

[Harobedb]

Wow, a ton of negative reviews!

[ZombieMetroAnt]

You know what that means @Harobedb, it'll probably end up in the Sale section soon.  j/k I don't know that but my thought behind these "superstar" kits is that it's tailored to make-up newbies. 

At one point or another, these have been Promos so for us seasoned gals it doesn't make it very exciting and I think that's where the negative reviews come in.   

[alexasteph]

@ZombieMetroAnt I got started with a Sephora Favorites Superstar kit about 5-6 years ago, and it was definitely a great discovery then! But you’re right, after building your collection these sets are underwhelming because they’re the exact same products over and over again. 

[fieldsofclover]

That makes sense, I can get the overwhelm of walking into a Sephora for the first-ish time and having no idea where to start. Makes the price tag seem like even more of a gotcha, though. @ZombieMetroAnt

[Harobedb]

Exactly, @ZombieMetroAnt@on both counts! I didn't expect much, but I was a little shocked they bumped the price up to $80. Esp. for noobs, that's a bit pricey!
