Hi friends! While our team is spending more time at home, some of us have been doing some spring cleaning or just have a little extra time to play around with makeup, but it seems like weโve all come across products that have been living in our drawers for what feels like decades (or maybe even longer)! This got us thinking and taking a walk down memory lane and reminiscing on our first holy grail products from Sephora.
In a previous thread, some of us have talked about our first purchase ever from Sephora, but we are so interested to hear what was the first โholy grailโ product you remember getting from Sephora that you just could not live without? Maybe it was finding that perfect lipstick, or the first foundation that was your spot-on shade match? Or even a primer or skincare product you still swear by!
Whatโs the first-ever holy grail product you remember getting from Sephora? Show & Tell by replying below!
Gucci Bloom! (The regular one)
I haven't found a perfume that comes close since!
One of the best coverage and continues to work is Estee Lauder full coverage in the tube .
Just a hard to beat product . Covers stubborn marks and scars . A little goes a long W A Y !
Been obsessed with #Caudalie #BeautyElixir for 10 years!! #beautyisaburden
Although Iโve been shopping at Sephora for many years, the product I would consider my 1st (#1) holy grail is:
๐ฅฐ Urban Decay Naked Rule34 Lip Gloss
I absolutely loved My Urban Decay Naked Rule34 Lip Glossโฃ๏ธ
I got it as a birthday present from a friend a few years ago. I absolutely adored it!
๐ญ I'm super bummed that they no longer carry itโ๏ธ
It was so perfect to wear alone or for a shine on top of lipstick.
It was perfectly nude, sheer, and glossy without being heavy, cakey, and transferring to everything.
I office out of my home, and since Iโm being safe at home and limiting my outings and doing business over the phone or virtual, I havenโt been searching too hard for a replacement.
But soon, Iโll be on the huntโ๏ธ
My first holy grail skincare product from Sephora was Proactiv Solutions Renewing Cleanser. I have struggled with acne for years, and I got this cleanser after trying the 3 step 30 day set from Shoppers Drug Mart, which I saw results with after my first use! ๐ฑ๐ค This cleanser has become an essential part to my routine! The other product I swear by is the Proactiv Emergency Blemish Relief. As soon as I see a pimple coming on, I put some of this on it, and it goes down within a few days! So thankful that Sephora could help my skin so much and make me feel more confident โค๏ธ I'm also so happy that Sephora has these groups and conversations where you can ask questions, give advice, and share things! For anyone who is reading this; you are beautiful. You are loved, and you can do anything you put your mind to ๐ If you have any questions about your skin, or anything, please let me know! I'm so happy to help! Have a wonderful day ๐
My holy grail from Sephora definitely has to be The Ordinary Peeling Solution. The first time I tried it I could not believe how it made my skin feel! Itโs my go to for a pick me up.
Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer Fenty Glow was the first ever product that I bought at Sephora. ๐ฅฐ I still have it. I've used it over 10 times and the amount hasn't moved! ๐ฑ My mom introduced me to Sephora.
@frognerary That's a lot of great stuff you bought! Sephora and makeup is definitely an addiction for me. Super jealous that you have naturally beautiful skin!
If I had nice skin like you, I wouldn't use as much skincare/ makeup products!
When I read this question one of my first ever Sephora purchased products popped into my head, the Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer! I don't even know how to explain how smooth this makes my face feel and how I can use it with ANY foundation. When I purchase a new foundation I always use this product as I know how it works with my skin. I have found this works under many different types of foundations from powder, sheer, luminous, or matte. I have repurchased this around 10 times since 2013, I always get the travel size as it lasts me a long time and I personally have a few primers I rotate between. However, this is the only one so far that I have ever repurchased.
If this isnโt my #1, itโs definitely in the top 3. Almost all silicone-based primers do nothing for me and this just sits so beautifully and feels so nice on the skin.
I'd have to say First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream Intense Hydration 8 oz/ 226 g # I use it for the face, sometimes my elbows too. It doesn't sting my face, doesn't smell like anything, is not too expensive, and works wonders for my dehydrated and sensitive skin ! I've since grown to love the brand entirely !
Blinc Amplified Tubing Mascara Black
I have been wearing this mascara since high school when you could only buy it from the luxury spa at the country club I worked at. I hate wearing normal mascara because I feel like even with the best skincare routine, I would always be tugged under my eyes to get all the mascara off. This mascara coats your lashes in little tubes that slide off with a but of warm water. Once I saw that Sephora carried this brand, I was over the moon excited.
Hoola Bronzer!
Urban decay all nighter and prep spray!!
It was a makeup set by Sephora for $100. This was back in 2012 so I don't think they have it anymore. I got the closest thing I could find as a photo. It was my first professional set of brushes, I still have them. I was so happy when I purchased them because it was the first time I could purchase a quality item at that price.
I love the SEPHORA COLLECTION Ready To Roll Brush Set! It's a great brush set for beginners.
I bought it a few years back and love how soft they are, they still sell them at Sephora. I just bought the SEPHORA COLLECTION PRO Concealer Brush #57 and love that as well!
