According to Our Shopping Data, These Sephora Products Are *Extremely* Popular
I'm in total disbelief that Black Friday and Cyber Monday are right around the corner. I swear that time completely sped up once we hit the toasty summer months! So, until I can score nearly 48 hours straight of nonstop deals ahead of the holiday craze, I'm gearing up for impressive product offerings during Sephora's Savings Event to get ahead of the game. If I had to guess, it's been at least a decade since becoming a Sephora Insider, and I love taking any opportunity to tap into the benefits it gives me by saving on viral products that have all but taken over my TikTok and Instagram feeds.

Since I can't stop myself from building shopping lists of everything I have yet to stock up on ahead of the New Year, I'm sharing 16 haircare, skincare, bodycare, and makeup finds I would make room for in my shopping cart before another beauty enthusiast snags them.
Skincare Saviors
To keep my hands moisturized and nourished over the chilly fall and winter months, I use this hand cream by Nécessaire. It's formulated with a mixture of five ceramides, five peptides, niacinamide, marula butter, and oil. It helps to strengthen your skin barrier in addition to reversing dryness and recovering volume loss. Plus, it's noncomedogenic, hypoallergenic, and fragrance-free.
One of the biggest qualms I have with my everyday lip balms is how heavy their formulas feel on my bare lips. But since beginning to use the Lip Butter Balm, I've noticed how much more moisturized and smooth they feel year-round. The balm's silky-smooth formula combines shea and murumuru seed butters with vegan waxes to boost shine.
One of the best ways I've updated my skincare routine over the past year has been by using this fast-acting, at-home acid peel treatment. The Shani Daren Skin Care Triple Acid Signature Peel encourages smoother, brighter skin with a mixture of glycolic acid, lactic and mandelic acids, and kaolin and bentonite clay for gentle yet effective exfoliation and cleansing.
If you haven't added double-cleansing to your skincare routine, get on top of it with this calming facial cleanser by Kora. Its pineapple enzyme with algae and jojoba oil work together to gently exfoliate and melt away excess dirt, oil, makeup, and more for balanced moisture and oil levels. Your skin will be left hydrated, smoothed, and primed for a makeup routine.
Makeup Must-Haves
Ilia's Limitless Lash Lengthening Clean Mascara lengths, lifts, and separates lashes using keratin to fortify lashes, shea butter for lightweight conditioning, and beeswax to seal in some much-needed moisture. The unique long-lasting formula also resists clumping, flaking, and smudging for all-day wear without needing any reapplication. Plus, its new formula is housed in more planet-friendly packaging.
I'm a huge fan of versatile complexion products that can help create endless makeup looks with minimal effort. The Major Headlines Double-Take Creme Powder Blush Duo is a duo compact of powder and cream blush for a lit-from-within glow. It has patented biomimetic pigments mirroring the skin ceramide's structure and aluminizing micronized pigments.
I've always had full brows but have only recently found a quick and easy way to effectively lock brow hair in place by sculpting them with this best-selling brow wax. It can be used to lift, tame, and sculpt every pesky hair into place. It's easy to use and free of any stiff feel or residue, so it's a must-have product for anyone who loves bold brows.
Lately, I've been looking for ways to add an ethereal glow to all my makeup looks, and Westman Atelier's Lit Up Highlight Stick in the shade Lit (a glassy iridescent color) has been on my list for far too long. The clean, multitasking highlighter comes in the form of a translucent balm using a medley of skin-firming, moisture-boosting ingredients.
Haircare Heroes
Ever since I revived my natural coils after wearing them relaxed for 10 years, I dedicate a lot of my free time to hunting for products I can use to help my strands remain healthy. During the Sephora Savings Event, I'll be stocking up on The Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask, which is clinically proven to reverse the effects of damage with features peptide technology that reconnects broken keratin chains.
When friends and loved ones ask how I keep my strands smooth and shiny no matter how much I put them through, I also recommend Gisou's Honey Infused Hair Oil. The award-winning and clinically proven hair oil is infused with Mirsalehi Honey for long-lasting shine and hydration while smoothing away frizz. Plus, when I decide to use heat, it adds protection up to 450°F.
Okay, I'll say it: Shopping for hair products that don't weigh down fine hair can pose a bigger challenge than I'd like to admit. The Fine Hair Conditioner by Ouai is one of the few lightweight products that adds the right amount of hydration to my tendrils. In addition to adding hydration and shine, the Ouai conditioner also pumps up its volume and bounce while keeping my strands strong.
Another product I'll be snagging for 20% off during the sales event is Fenty Beauty's The Comeback Kid Instant Damage Repair Hair Treatment. It's great for all hair types (especially those damaged from heat styling, chemical services, and coloring), and is a pro-grade bond-building treatment that penetrates the cortex to kick-start inside-out repair. Use this in place of a conditioner!
Bodycare Besties
As soon as the cold weather hits, there's nothing I love more than a luxe body lotion that intensely hydrates and gently exfoliates the skin. This lotion uses a formula crafted from urea, squalane, and colloidal oatmeal to help address bumpy textures, dead skin buildup, dryness, and itchiness. I'm obsessed with how fast-absorbing it is.
As someone with a deep skin tone, I'm normally not one for self-tanning, but the Luxe Body Serum by St. Tropez is one of the best products I've added to my bodycare routine. The hydrating self-tanning serum helps create a natural-looking, sun-kissed glow with a formula using hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and collagen to hydrate, reduce redness, and support skin elasticity.
I'm a firm believer that anyone struggling to maintain hydration in their skin should slather on body butter. When it comes to the bodycare products I'll be shopping, the Youth to the People Hydrate + Glow Body Butter is at the top of my list because it hydrates, smooths, and firms skin with a moisture complex as well as niacinamide and superberry extracts.
Lastly, I could never go without a great exfoliant. This set of two microcrystal, physical-exfoliating body bars tackles dullness and uneven skin texture by using glycerin and shea butter to smooth dry, bumpy skin. Say goodbye to keratosis pilaris and ingrown hair—this has you covered!
