[[UPDATE 6/12: This sweepstakes is now closed. Thanks to all who entered! Stay tuned for an announcement of our winners once they've been contacted via PM and confirmed.]]
Whether you’re a beauty newbie just starting out on your skincare journey, or a seasoned skincare pro with a 7-step routine, step one is identifying what your skin needs. Make a skincare goal (or several)! Maybe your #1 goal is to stay protected with a new SPF (everyone needs that!), or maybe you’re looking to brighten things up with a healthy dose of vitamin C, or simply stay hydrated with a great moisturizer. Skincare goals can be short-term and achievable, or more aspirational as part of a longer skincare journey – anything goes!
Between May 12th and June 11th at 11:59pm Pacific Time, comment on this thread by hitting “reply” below and share one of your skincare goals, and tag a product you want to try to help you achieve that goal! To tag a product, type the “#” symbol followed by the name of the product, then select the product from the pop-up search results to tag it!
By sharing your skincare goal and your product tag, you will be entered to win one of twenty (20) $250 (USD) Sephora gift cards! You are eligible to enter once per day to increase your chances to win – but each goal you share must be different from your others to be eligible (you can repeat product tags as long as the skincare goal is different)! Out of all of the eligible entries, 20 lucky people will be randomly selected to each win a $250 (USD) gift card – no professional skincare knowledge required. See official rules in the spoiler tab below.

Another of my skincare goals is to strengthen my skin by boosting collagen production. I’m very doubtful of topically-applied collagen having any effect on that (molecular size is too big to sink deep enough into skin to be effective), so instead I choose ingredients that have a better chance of stimulating collagen. Retinoids are among them. So are peptides. My favorite peptides powerhouse product is The Ordinary "Buffet" 1 oz/ 30 mL which I use most mornings.
I've just gotten into skincare this past year, and I've been trying to get better at consistently wearing SPF every day using Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen Invisible Broad Spectrum SPF 40 PA +++ . My other goal is to brighten my complexion and reduce dark spots and hyperpigmentation – I'll definitely be trying Drunk Elephant C-Firma™ Vitamin C Day Serum 1 oz/ 30 mL when I get the chance!
Hoping to change my moisturizing routine to fit my now maturing skin by using Farmacy Honey Halo Ultra-Hydrating Ceramide Moisturizer 1.7 oz/ 50 mL and of course top it off with a great spf.
My skincare goal for 2021 is to nourish my skin daily with FOREO UFO™ 2 and their collection of masks! Beside that, reducing my eye puffiness and dark circles with La Mer The Eye Concentrate Cream 0.5 oz/ 15 mL
My skin care goal is to brighten my skin and increase firmness + elasticity by using OLEHENRIKSEN Truth Serum Hydrating Vitamin C Serum 1.0 oz/ 30 mL! I would also like calm redness and hydrate my skin with Dermalogica Ultracalming Cleanser!
@SephoraBIC -- My first goal is going well. Time to step it up! Cleaning the surface isn't enough, I need to get back into a weekly deep clean routine, so I'm trying out some fresh Umbrian Clay Pore Purifying Face Mask 3.3 oz/ 100 mL. Let's see how it goes.
My 2021 skincare goal is reducing redness in my cheeks. Hoping to try the Glow Recipe Watermelon Pink Juice Oil-Free Moisturizer 2 oz/ 60 mL after I finish with my current moisturizer.
I want to moisturize my face and decrease my pore sizes with the #Tatcha The Water Cream Oil-Free Pore Minimizing Moisturizer 1.7 oz/50 mL. My skin has been sooooo dry and I have not found a toner that I've liked to minimize my pores. I just bought the Tatcha Water Cream off of Sephora so I'm very excited to try it out!!
My skin care goal is to achieve brighter and more even skin with Murad Dark Spot Correcting & Brightening Value Set ! Heard so many great things about the line and cannot wait to try them on.
Skin care goal is to use more Erno Laszlo Hydraphel Skin Supplement Lotion 6.8 oz want to give my dry skin more moisture during these next few hot dry summer months
I want to use SPF every day and keep my skin protected from the sun! Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen Invisible Broad Spectrum SPF 40 PA +++ is one I have to try coming up!
One of my skincare goals is to use a face mask at least once a week. Tatcha Violet-C Radiance Mask 1.7 oz/ 50 mL
One of my skincare goals is to use SPF everyday! Sunscreen is definitely the most important step in a skincare routine, and I want to try Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen Invisible Broad Spectrum SPF 40 PA +++ !
My under eyes are dark and dry, and can be puffy when my allergies hit - so, my skin care goal is to improve the look of my under eyes. I will be trying out REN Clean Skincare Brightening Dark Circle Eye Cream 0.5 oz/ 15 mL and the SEPHORA COLLECTION Metal Facial Cooling Globes
@SephoraBIC another favorite of mine to help with my SPF goal Supergoop! Mattescreen Sunscreen SPF 40 1.5 oz/ 45 mL
My goal is to protect my skin with better sunscreen Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen Invisible Broad Spectrum SPF 40 PA +++
My skincare goal is to restore firmness while hydrating my skin! One of my favorite products for this is Drunk Elephant Protini™ Polypeptide Firming Refillable Moisturizer ! I received this as a sample and have been dreaming of purchasing this luxurious product ever since!
My Skincare goal is to get rid of the puffiness under my eyes. Right now I'm using Eye Gel from Trueskin. I ordered two brands of under eye cream with caffeine to try...The Inky List and The Ordinary. Once I try them, I will choose the one I like and post reviews. I just wish that returns for online orders was more friendly and I didn't have to pay postage to return the ones I don't like as much.
To apply and reapply sunscreen more often is a good summer goal Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen Invisible Broad Spectrum SPF 40 PA +++ 2.5 oz/ 73.9 mL
