You’re not alone! I 100% agree! Sephora sales aren’t exciting or worth it anymore since we can get better deals from Ulta and the brand’s websites anyway. You look beautiful as always, Lauren! 💖
I do agree! I was Rouge for years and last year I began to take advantage of brand sales so I’ve slipped to VIB. Some of the items that I wanted were totally sold out. The hype really is rather absurd and causes too many impulse purchases I really don’t need. I’d rather purchase thoughtfully throughout the year.
I totally agree with you on the Sephora sale! They've a bit lackluster recently. I did take your recommendations on several Beauty Pie products and so far, I'm very happy 😊 Nice to see a RUclipsr who's more or less in my neck of the woods, at least in terms of my work life. Have a great week 😊
You’re definitely not alone. Everything I wanted at the VIB sale (I’m a VIB member) is sold out! They should stock up on products before the sale. I’m done being frustrated at everything being sold out.
This is sooo true. I noticed this at Christmas time too like why am I spending all this money at Sephora while getting emails for way better savings from the brand 🙃 thank you!
I’m a Rouge, so I get 20% off and free fast shipping. Also, if you’ve signed up for a brand’s email discount in the past, you can’t claim it again. However, after last year barely hitting Rouge, I’m wondering if it’s worth it. Thanks for putting the research into this video. I really enjoy your content!
I immediately went to purchase the Tatcha sunscreen after your last video & was sold out...BUT I was able to get it at my local sephora, so always check in-store options. Lol, I also purchase from sephora for specific samples sometimes and basically never get what I chose! When will I learn! Loved this video - making us give additional thoughts before purchase! Brands also often have better kits/bundles directly on their sites for additional savings.
Great video idea!!! I think it is important for consumers to know which one is the better option and not get blinded by the Sephora “sale” since brands offer better deals in many cases.
Hi Lauren...thanks for showing better options to save money. Btw- love your top...that color is beautiful. I haven't found a top on that color. It looks great on you 🤗
Thanks for your honesty! Most refer to this sale as the end all be all! Not worth the time. I did look in and ended up ordering a few Sephora line products and the Bare Minerals Blonzer since it was sold out on that website. Great video.
I bought products that I know I can’t get a better discount through the brands directly (thinking of Patrick Ta & Gucci). I DO like to purchase their favorites kits during this sale as I think those are a pretty good value.
I love love love the Josie Maran protect and perfect that you turned me on to:) I so wish we had Ulta here in Canada 😔. What an incredibly genius idea to compare this way- Sephora vs brand website. Sadly for us here in Canada pretty much all brands do not extend their free shipping to us with the exception of Charlotte Tilbury……but I’m still gonna check out Rose inc. I did just order some type of skin tint from the Sephora sale but there are other products I want to try like the lipstick now lol. You picked all of my fav products and brands:) You look beautiful as always - loving your top and that gorgeous hair 😊 Have a beautiful week💕 Xo🇨🇦
Your points at Sephora will have the best value if you wait to rank up 2500 points. Then you can redeem them for $ 100 gift card and get whatever you want. The small sample sizes that cost 100, 200 or 500 pints are not worth it for me.
This is a really good idea for a video. It must've taken you quite a while too so thank you 😊 Edited to say that Tarte's website is really great when you sign up. They have discounts and sales all the time and they ship internationally and even factor in any import duties. So what you pay is what you pay. In South Africa we have to add up to 70% of the value if the company that ships doesn't pay for the customs.
Completely agree!!! I don’t understand why they make such a HUGE deal about a 10-20% discount. Like it’s seriously not that great! You can almost always gets at least 10% if not way more straight from brand websites at all times with promo codes. Sephora just does an amazing job at marketing and using influencers to push their website and sales. Almost every single makeup company and other makeup sites (like CameraReady, Beautylish, Credo, BeautyBay, etc) also have “spring sales” as well and 99% of them are WAY better than Sephora’s! Most of them are 30% off everything with even more specials!
For people who buy Supergoop reguarly the anthropologie sitewide+ beauty specific sales are something to look out for because you can get them 20 percent off during that time, also replica has 20 percent off friends and family events sometimes( they last one was a couple of weeks ago)
I was gonna order the Rose inc serum tint from the brand they had the set with th brush I went back on their a few hours later to check out they were all out of stock near my color and Sephora has been saying that set is coming soon and still hasn't so I just ordered the tint by its self for the 15% off I have the shipping subscription so I don't pay for it but I did spend 124$ on 3 things the Huda quartz pallet and the inc nails duo set in the lilac and baby blue polish that's all I bought so far 3 things I really wanted that I have been eyeing I should have bought the Huda pallet durning their 30% off sale a week or 2 ago . I usually buy alot of skincare but I am trying to pick and chose.
I've been buying more often from the brand websites and I slipped from Rouge to VIB. Not loving Sephora as much as I used to which is a shame because they just opened one right near my house Lol
Hi Lauren...I know you enjoy binge worthy shows...have you checked out the new show in Netflix "The Ultimatum "? I started watching it today... won't say anything just watch it and "you're welcome"
It's not worth it to me at all, I'm only insider status. 10% is NOTHING. Meanwhile this week at Ulta I get 4x points shopping there. If it's a brand I can't get at ulta, I generally wait for a sale on the brand's website.
I’m annoyed, I needed to order online and I could not find anywhere like any spot where I enter the discount do you know where that is? I am a Rouge member so I thought it would just pop up automatically so anyhow I paid full price for my products because I got so annoyed I just said forget it. 😒
I just subbed to your channel 🙋🏼♀️😀💓✨ btw HI Nice to meet you, I am sorry on my initial post I just went right into my rant about the website but I didn’t get any discount on the website and I’m not sure why, I thought it would automatically come up? I don’t know if you know anything about it but oh well.
I am tired of Sephora's return policy. Ulta has a much more generous policy and will even give you store credit if you are past the expiration date. Sephora will not.
You’re not alone! I 100% agree! Sephora sales aren’t exciting or worth it anymore since we can get better deals from Ulta and the brand’s websites anyway. You look beautiful as always, Lauren! 💖
❤️❤️
Finally someone said it!!! The sephora sale is lame and literally all marketing. Can get way better deals on brand website and also black friday.
I do agree! I was Rouge for years and last year I began to take advantage of brand sales so I’ve slipped to VIB. Some of the items that I wanted were totally sold out. The hype really is rather absurd and causes too many impulse purchases I really don’t need. I’d rather purchase thoughtfully throughout the year.
Yes! Thank you for saying this! 10% is NOTHING! Most brands will give you 15-20% for signing up for email marketing. Love your content! 🥰
thanks Brianna xo
I need that shirt! Gorgeous color, where did you get it?
This is such a great video. I have never understood the Sephora sale hype.

Highly recommend the nyx serum concealer or winky lux peeper concealer from target or ulta if you like the kosas. Creamy and hydrating!
This video is so original and such a great idea!
Excellent video! Will love more skin care and Fenty Beauty. Actually more of this videos even when there is no sale!
Hi Lauren...thanks for showing better options to save money.
Btw- love your top...that color is beautiful. I haven't found a top on that color. It looks great on you 🤗
thanks I think it was a Marshall’s find :)

Thanks for another great video! I always appreciate the opinions of a fellow nurse ❤️
Agreed! Unless you want it now, I'd rather order from. The websites
I love love love the Josie Maran protect and perfect that you turned me on to:) I so wish we had Ulta here in Canada 😔.

I love this idea. I’ve always wondered the same thing!
Thanks Lauren for the info! I love your shirt!
thanks!
Lauren, where did you get your top? I love it!! Love your videos too, thanks for being you!!💃🏻💕

You are so right. I try not to shop at Sephora unless I absolutely have to.
Unless you spend enough to be a rouge member the sale sucks!
I was gonna order the Rose inc serum tint from the brand they had the set with th brush I went back on their a few hours later to check out they were all out of stock near my color and Sephora has been saying that set is coming soon and still hasn't so I just ordered the tint by its self for the 15% off I have the shipping subscription so I don't pay for it but I did spend 124$ on 3 things the Huda quartz pallet and the inc nails duo set in the lilac and baby blue polish that's all I bought so far 3 things I really wanted that I have been eyeing I should have bought the Huda pallet durning their 30% off sale a week or 2 ago . I usually buy alot of skincare but I am trying to pick and chose.
Hearing good things about that tint too! Dang I hate missing a good sale :/
Omg I love Kosas, do you have the baked pressed powder? It is heavenly in my opinion! I also have the concealer which I love and the foundation. 💖
Awesome video!! 👏🏼
I get better deals from Amazon or the actual website and Sephora barely had things I want
I’m finding that too
Nordstrom has a sale.and Macys had a beauty 15% off till the 3ed . That’s right Sephora telling you free shipping but not with sale and 50$
I've been buying more often from the brand websites and I slipped from Rouge to VIB. Not loving Sephora as much as I used to which is a shame because they just opened one right near my house Lol
Glow Recipe gives a student discount too.
We miss you dearly,are u coming back to youtube???
What was the brush you used to apply the highlighter in this video?! It looked like a good one!
Amazon really is so much cheaper as long as it is from Amazon and not a third party because they do a switch and bait
I agreeeee!!!!!!! Not worth it. And you have to spend so much for such a disappointing perk!
Hi Lauren...I know you enjoy binge worthy shows...have you checked out the new show in Netflix "The Ultimatum "? I started watching it today... won't say anything just watch it and "you're welcome"

Unless they raise the discount percentage
I am tired of Sephora's return policy. Ulta has a much more generous policy and will even give you store credit if you are past the expiration date. Sephora will not.
I only wear high end that are vegan and cruelty free
You can have my Replica travel size Autumn Vibes for free. I really don’t like it. 😂
Sephora is overrated
❤️❤️❤️
Definitely not as exciting anymore 👎🏻 You can, however, combine the free shipping code with a lower than $50 priced item and still get the sale price.
