The Anti-April Fools: Spring Beauty Sale at Sephora

The long weekend was pretty great — the warmest days in months, Easter festivities and an excess of Starburst jelly beans and Napoleon (family Easter dessert tradition!) On Saturday, I even did a little outlet shopping. It was the combination of ideal weather and sales (50% off at J Crew Factory!) that put me in the mood to shop shop shop. Some time during my sugar-induced haze, I stumbled onto Sephora’s spring clearance online. There’s some major beauty loot to be had! I promise, no April Fools tricks here (I really despise  April 1 and its prankiness). Here’s what’s tempting me most…

I’ve been eyeing up the Peter Thomas Roth Unwrinkle Conceal & Brighten duo for what it seems like ever. A 50% off sale is just the encouragement I need to give it a try. A concealer filled with PTR’s signature blend of peptides and wrinkle-fighters as well as a multi-tasking illuminator that can be used anywhere you need a little luminosity? Sounds dreamy, right?

Tarte’s holiday collection was just one huge ball of awesome – especially the Maracuja Rollerball Collectors Set (prettiest packaging!) that is now no sale. Three mini rollerballs filled with the a facial oil rich in vitamin C and fatty acids.

Sephora makes phenomenal face brushes (this one is an all-time fav) but they can be a bit splurgey, which is why 50% off is so major. While most have already sold out, this Sephora Pro-Tapered Foundation version is still in stock. This would be perfect for getting concealer or foundation around the eyes, nose and just for extra precision.

On the exterior, Tarte NeutralEYES Shadow Palette looks like a fab wallet but – surprise! – it’s actually 10 neutral eyeshadows, a double-ended brush and an eyeliner. I have this and love it — and the fact that it is 40% off is kinda mind-blowing. 

Happy Monday! I hope you successfully avoid any April Fools duping. Remember, trust no one.
