I make myself follow 3 rules for the Sephora event. 1. Only buy brands that are not at Ulta. IMO Ulta has a better rewards program. Also, right now they have a coupon for 20% off everything (including prestige brands) for Diamond and Platinum members. 2. Only buy brands that never or rarely have their own discounts (e.g. Dior, Tom Ford, Patrick Ta, etc.). Some brands have deeper discounts on their site (e.g. Fenty, Huda Beauty). 3. Check the price at Sephora against Kohl’s. For example, the Sephora Collection About That Shine Lacquer Shine Lipstick is $16 at Sephora, but $9 at Kohl’s.
I also pick up products that I want to try but will never make a free shipping minimum or a cumulative discount. You know the sales: get 35% off 150 minimum..
I love this type of video because I would much rather have a recap of all of your core favorites instead of having to try and remember them all or go back and watch a bunch of videos. This is much easier! Thank you, Nikki! ❤
As a regular viewer, I wish I had a bingo card to use while watching this video. 😂 Many of these were not surprises, but I love that because it adds to Nikki’s authenticity in what she uses professionally and works personally. Love this!
I love seeing that your favourite products are so stable. It means the formula hasn’t changed much and you’ve honed your tastes. There must be countless hours and faces behind your choices. Thank you for sharing ♥️🌹
Out of all of the Sephora recommendation videos out there (and there are a lot)…Nikki’s are the ones that I really sit up and pay attention to. I love this channel! ❤
I second so many of the ladies here, you look so FRESH and that lip color you are killing Nikki!! Also as always, super appreciate the “all in one” recommended shopping list! ❤❤
I hope I can make your live tomorrow, but I want to say that this video is the reason why I love you so much. You teach. You don't play. You get to the point. I have some ideas when you do that "house", which I will share on that video page. Thank you for this.
Love the lip color, it makes your eyes pop!!!! Thank you for sharing, you can get lost in the many products that are available, and getting key information about the ones that are worth it is great! You are my go to for makeup products as well have a similar skin tone! ❤
I love how most of these products are being constantly repeated in your videos so most of these I already have bec u convinced me after so many repetitions 😂 & now I’m convinced to get the rest of these repeats 😅
I'm beggingggg for a "what's in my pro kit" video please 🙏 I would love to see it and I'm also curious how you fit all of your products plus their multiple shades!!
LYS is such an underrated brand. I love you have been talking more about the brand. I know you love the cream bronzer, but any product you buy is a gem. It’s a very consistent brand, and that’s incredibly rare in high end and drugstore brands.
Can you believe this? I have every product you just spoke about, Nikki! I wonder how that happened? 🤣 They are all winners, in my opinion! Nice to see you Nikki! Love you...💜💜💜
Nancy, me too! And I got the 2 I didn't have yet because I knew the sale was coming. I have free same dy delivery so I got the Huda loose powder and the MBM neutrals palette today so I could use them tomorrow. I also got the mufe HD skin glow foundation today to try tomorrow.
@@KarenGaylor4712 OMG Karen, that same-day delivery is danger danger! lol I would’ve done that, but my order was too large 🙈 U got some great stuff! 😍👌🏻
Hi Nikki, I have been following you for years. You are my absolute favorite. Your personality is top notch. You are absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for sharing with us ☺️
I continually repurchase the “Monsieur Big” mascara from Lancome, it’s an essential for me, the “Half red” pencil from Mac. I love FENTY Glosses, they are all beautiful. The Dior foundation catches my eye. Thank you for this tutorial Nikki and have a great day🤩🤩🤩
I love this video and I don’t typically even watch the sale videos, but the fact you narrowed them down so much and showed products you love so much you have in your kit and personal collection says a lot. They aren’t just meh products you could live without. Even though I find the prices of most of these to be absurd, especially when you aren’t a working makeup artist, it does help on what to splurge on when you do wanna get a luxury item. I just find most makeup products you are paying such a high price simply because of the name or packaging, or as a makeup artist, having these products just makes you look more sophisticated and well to do if you will. You can’t be pulling out all Elf, LA Girl, Pixi, Wet and Wild, Maybelline (even when they are products that look and perform as good as high end/luxury) and still ask for a hundreds of dollars. 😂
Hi Nikki, Great round up of products and I will be restocking some of these products as well as skincare and hair products! Your make up today is just STUNNING and quite honestly, I had to playback what you were saying a few times because I was mesmerized as I kept staring in awe at your face😂❤!!
Yesss, Nikki recs are the best! 🎉 I had my cart ready + clicked checkout at midnight for in-store pickup 🛍️ Nikki, everyone - get those Gisou lip oils in all 3 new colors.. they’re SO GOOD! 😍
I love all your recommendations, Nikki! I purchased Givenchy powder, Haus Labs Foundation, because of you! Now I'll get Patrick Ta blush and Armani Foundation ❤
Possible video idea: tips / tricks / recommendations for a variety of skin tones. Everything from glow in the dark like myself to the deepest of tones. I know it would be too much to have models for all of the tones, but just discuss. These products work really well for light complexions for barely there and glam makeup, and these work for deeper tones. I am just starting my makeup game (a little late, but that's ok), and I have a list of products you recommend, but I would love to understand more for my tone and im sure others would too. Thank you for all of the hard work you put into your channel for us! ❤
I just got the “I need a nude” 25% off directly from Natasha Denona. I am warm toned, a definite “warm Autumn” and yet this rather cool toned neutral is so glam and refreshing change on me. If you’re warm toned these taupe shimmers and foils will look a little silver, but not too much, just right
After a few weeks from the purchase, I must say: thank you so much, Nikki! I was not a big pencil fan, but your suggestion from MAKE UP FOREVER line was perfect! Love the pencils, colors on point - getting addicted to their versatility! Same goes for the Anastasia's pencils!
I love how your reusing lots of these products nothing on this list is new😍♥️ Thanks Nikki for always being real. The only new thing I’m looking forward to is the Saie concealer I heard it’s great so I wanted to know if it’s better than the Huda one
I’m off the makeup subject but love your shortest necklace you have on here. Thanks for sharing what good makeup you use and also what you use on your clients.
I’ve been waiting on this video to finish shopping. I’ve got the Haus Labs concealers in two shades, the Olehenriksen lip treatment and some hair products already ordered but I’m sure I’ll be placing another order today. Thank you for the reminders.
Thank you so much Nikki! Again, i spent a lot. It was mostly backups & hair. I did get some makeup of course lol. But way too much money LMAO! I cant help it. Im so much more confident in my makeup application because of you! I appreciate all your help. Your videos are a daily must!! Love you my friend!!;❤❤❤❤
My favorite corrector is also the Huda beauty Cherry blossom 🌸. Then I use the Natasha Denona concealer. My undereyes look better now using this combo than they ever have. ❤
I’ve bought many of your favorites and they are just as good as you say!love your tips Especially huda corrector, fenty blushes (cream), Armani always always in the winter and Natasha denona concealer
Nikki, I wish I could buy all of these products you’re presenting!! You look flawless!! ❤❤ Thank you for showing these. Consistently mentioned ones I will get for sure. Thank you so much!
That was amazing . Thank you for taking the time to share the core essentials. Again, I love your eye makeup so much. Wish you would do a tutorial on that one of these days.
Always great recommendations. BUT, I want to know what eyeshadows, blush, bronzer, lipstick/lipgloss you are wearing in this video. I am going to a black tie event in 2 weeks and this look would be perfect!!
Hi Nikki, I discovered your channel 2 days ago and has been binge watching your videos ever since. I am obsessed and wish to get makeup done by you one day. ❤️ you!
of course I placed a small restock order Yesterday😮 but had to watch your video “just in case” I missed something 🤪. I’m going to check out the highlighters😳. Thx Nikki, you look stunning btw🤍💥💥
Nikki I found your channel this year and love your expertise and authenticity (not to mention when Mitch narrates the video lol)! Bought the Haus Labs Rose Quartz highlighter on your recommendation in the sale, wowza it is stunning. Thanks!
I purchased the Tom Ford Shade and Illuminate about a month ago and it is so WORTH IT. I purchased the shade 1. The contour/bronzer is the best shade to sculpt and add colour to the face. The highlighter is the best to just add glow (Not a beaming highlight, just a nice healthy glow). I wear them when I have minimal makeup, or when I am doing a full glam. It doesn’t disturb the makeup underneath, it just lays beautifully on the skin. I will most definitely purchase it again. Highly recommend😊♥️
I bought the MBM master mattes neutrals, Huda loose powder in cherry blossom, and Valentino born in Roma perfumes. Already have or recently bought everything else!
I make myself follow 3 rules for the Sephora event.
1. Only buy brands that are not at Ulta. IMO Ulta has a better rewards program. Also, right now they have a coupon for 20% off everything (including prestige brands) for Diamond and Platinum members.
2. Only buy brands that never or rarely have their own discounts (e.g. Dior, Tom Ford, Patrick Ta, etc.). Some brands have deeper discounts on their site (e.g. Fenty, Huda Beauty).
3. Check the price at Sephora against Kohl’s. For example, the Sephora Collection About That Shine Lacquer Shine Lipstick is $16 at Sephora, but $9 at Kohl’s.
Thank you for the tips - didn’t know them!
I also pick up products that I want to try but will never make a free shipping minimum or a cumulative discount. You know the sales: get 35% off 150 minimum..
Great tips! 💕
Armani just had 25% off for VIP members cost zero to join, I stocked up on foundation and mascara favorites.
Like those tips. I only bought what I really wanted and could buy at a true discount: Valentino perfumes and makeup by Mario neutrals palate.
Thinking of the Tom Ford highlighter- I’d love to see a video of products you’ve changed your mind about (for better or worse!)
That's a great idea! 👌
Great idea for a video
Yes please 🙏
Love that idea!
I love this type of video because I would much rather have a recap of all of your core favorites instead of having to try and remember them all or go back and watch a bunch of videos. This is much easier! Thank you, Nikki! ❤
Exactly, hate when they say they don’t want to mention products they have talked about before. I need to know core
As a regular viewer, I wish I had a bingo card to use while watching this video. 😂 Many of these were not surprises, but I love that because it adds to Nikki’s authenticity in what she uses professionally and works personally. Love this!
I agree!!
Nikki you have the best beauty channel, love you
You remind me of a modern version of Cher in her younger years! So gorgeous!
I thought so too!
I was thinking Ashley Judd. But I can see Cher as well…maybe if Cher and a younger Ashley Judd had a love child.
That lipstick color is beautiful on you Nikki❤❤❤
What is the color?
I love seeing that your favourite products are so stable. It means the formula hasn’t changed much and you’ve honed your tastes. There must be countless hours and faces behind your choices. Thank you for sharing ♥️🌹
you look so fresh-faced and GORG in this video! 😍

just purchased Patrick Ta just enough at Kohls. Sold out everywhere......can't wait. thanks for your channel.
I'm beggingggg for a "what's in my pro kit" video please 🙏 I would love to see it and I'm also curious how you fit all of your products plus their multiple shades!!
Wow, Nikki. Thank you for such great suggestions. It's obvious how much work went into you helping us. You're so awesome!
You look absolutely stunning! That lip!!
LYS is such an underrated brand. I love you have been talking more about the brand. I know you love the cream bronzer, but any product you buy is a gem. It’s a very consistent brand, and that’s incredibly rare in high end and drugstore brands.
I just purchased aprox 10 of their lip products during the sale. My first time purchasing this brand.
I love, love, love the Westman Atelier mascaras in brown and black. It's fantastic!
Can you believe this? I have every product you just spoke about, Nikki! I wonder how that happened? 🤣 They are all winners, in my opinion! Nice to see you Nikki! Love you...💜💜💜
