My Must-Have Makeup Finds From Sephora

There’s a certain thrill to walking into Sephora, knowing you’re about to stumble upon products that can completely transform your makeup game. That’s precisely what happened to me last weekend. I went in with the intention of “just browsing” but walked out with four must-have makeup treasures that have already become staples in my routine.

First up is the Huda Beauty Icy Nude Eyeshadow Palette. The mix of frosty shimmers and muted mattes is chef’s kiss. This palette has me covered whether I’m aiming for a daytime look or an evening vibe. I used it to create a soft, glittery lid for brunch with friends, and the compliments wouldn’t stop coming. The shadows are buttery smooth and blend like a dream.

Next, let’s talk about the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer. It’s one of those products I’d heard everyone rave about, and now I understand why. The creamy texture glides on effortlessly, hiding dark circles and blemishes without feeling cakey. I’m obsessed with how radiant it makes my under-eyes look—it’s as if I’ve been drinking two gallons of water a day (spoiler: I haven’t).

I’ve been using the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray to keep everything in place. I sprayed it on before heading to an outdoor event, and hours later, my makeup looked untouched. The finish is soft and dewy, not sticky or stiff. It’s your glam’s ultimate insurance policy—it won’t budge!

Finally, I treated myself to the Rare Beauty Positive Light Liquid Luminizer in a gorgeous champagne shade. This highlight is magic in a bottle. I dab a little on my cheekbones, nose, and even my collarbones, giving me that lit-from-within glow. It’s subtle but buildable, perfect for everyday wear or special occasions.

Sephora has seriously outdone itself with these gems. Each product has made my routine feel effortless yet glamorous, and I can’t recommend them enough. Have you tried any of these? If not, what’s stopping you? Let’s swap make-up stories—I’d love to hear your faves!
