Monthly Favorites: April 2025 Edition!

Monthly Faves: April 2025!

Hiya, BIC! I hope spring shopping szn has been treating you well. 🌷🛍 It’s been busy over here at Sephora HQ – but don’t worry, I’ve still found time to walk over to the closest Sephora store on my lunch break to swatch all the latest beauty goodies IRL. Me? Obsessed? Yes, yes I am.

Even with all the fun store newness and Sephora Savings Event hauls to keep me entertained here on the BIC and on social, I found myself reaching more for my existing collection this month – and my April faves reflect that! Hydrated, sun-shielded skin, a simple slick-back, and a fool-proof blush have been the keys to my low-maintenance spring look. (Don’t ask me why it still takes me so long to get ready, though).

Here are some of my trusty April favorites:

• dae Cactus Fruit 3-in-1 Styling Cream with Taming Wand Taming Wand 
• innisfree Green Tea Caffeine Bright-Eye Serum with Niacinamide 0.33 oz / 10 ml 
• Kosas DreamBeam Silicone-Free Mineral Sunscreen SPF 40 with Ceramides and Peptides Sunlit 
• Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench® Hyaluronic Cloud Cream Hydrating Refillable Moisturizer 
• Westman Atelier Mini Petite Baby Cheeks Lip + Cheek Cream Blush Stick Petal

My April favs!!

 K18 Biomimetic Hairscience DAMAGE SHIELD Protective Conditioner 8.5 oz / 250 mL K18 Biomimetic Hairscience DAMAGE SHIELD pH Protective Shampoo 8.5 oz / 250 ml  visited my hairdresser and she said my hair was damaged so I thought I’d give this a try. It is amazing. I think my hair has been feeling better! 
Tower 28 Beauty SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray with Hypochlorous Acid 4 oz/ 120 mL so good. Especially after a workout! 
Supergoop! Protec(tint) Daily SPF Tint SPF 50 Sunscreen Skin Tint with Ectoin 20C a great tinted sunscreen. I find it gives a great glowy finish 

Summer Fridays blush it’s so pretty. 
Rhode peptide lip treatment is so good. Helped my wind chapped lips

Pretty April faves @ather! The K18 shampoo and conditioner is so good for some TLC to hair - I lightened my hair for spring/summer and the K18 has been helping to keep my hair soft and moisturized.

@itsfi  Thank you! I have been loving it in my rotation! That is so awesome it is helping with your lightened hair! I also lightened my hair recently!! Its nice to go a little lighter in the summer!

My April favourites ❤️

Each month, I love discovering new beauty products that make my routine more fun and fresh. This month, my favorites include a soft pink blush that gives my cheeks a natural glow, a fresh perfume that smells like spring. These products have made me feel more confident and ready for the day.

Here are mine monthly favourites 

Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Soft Pinch Liquid Blush Supergoop! Glowscreen SPF 40 Face Sunscreen with Hyaluronic Acid + Niacinamide Sunset Jo Malone London Wood Sage & Sea Salt Cologne

@AmieKaur great choices,  the soft pinch blush is a great product that is easy to use and offer all day color

@AmieKaur, you have some lovely faves this month. I like how the aquatic, green and woody notes in Jo Malone Wood Sage & Sea Salt blend together - it's such a pretty fragrance on its own and layered with other perfumes.
