Sephora Sale 2020 | August Celebration – Spend $75, Save $15

Move over Nordstrom Anniversary Sale – the August 2020 Sephora Sale is here! This month, Sephora has an amazing sale going on where you can save extra money on all of the best name brand beauty products. Let’s dive into my list of makeup and skincare must-haves.

Recent Sephora Beauty Faves

Most of my recommendations are from my recent summer 2020 makeup blog post, too. You’ll notice some recent product favorites such as the Benefit Cosmetics BADgal BANG! Volumizing Mascara ($25) and a glistening highlighter ($28) from Milk Makeup. One skincare product that stands out to me right now? The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% Serum ($5.90) which I’ve been applying to my clean skin every night. The lightweight formula promises to deliver blemish blasting ingredients to help reduce signs of congestion. So far, so good!

Old Sephora Beauty Faves

I also chose to include some beauty picks that I consider “oldies but goodies” such as the infamous nude pink Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lipstick ($25) and the Stila Stay All Day Liquid Eye Liner ($22). In addition to my top makeup picks, I also listed out some top skincare essentials to grab during this sale if you haven’t tried them yet! Now is a great time to pick up pricer things because you won’t be buying anything at the standard full price.

Pro-Tip: ALWAYS Save Your Online or In-Store Receipt

If you end up hating something, PLEASE keep your receipt. You can return any used or unused Sephora beauty products with your receipt and you will get your money back. Trust me, I’ve learned this the hard way and I’ve ended up wasting hundreds of dollars on products that I didn’t like. The beauty products I hated also took up unnecessary space in my bathroom for months until I gave them away.

How Long is the Sephora Sale in August?

This month the exciting Sephora sale in August will last from August 14th until August 23rd. You can shop both in-store and online to score major discounts on everything from facial cleansers to foundation.

Even if you don’t feel safe entering the Sephora store because of the pandemic you can still save money by shopping for the sale online. Honestly, I’ll be shopping the sale online because then I can pick out free samples and use up my Beauty Insider rewards to redeem items.
