Sephora Self-Care Favs

November 10, 2021

In honour of Sephora’s Holiday Savings Event, I figured that I would share my current favourite products that I use for one of my most sacred things – self-care.

Thinking about using this opportunity to start your holiday shopping early? Heck yes! For every one person you tick off on your Christmas shopping list, you get a little something for yourself, right?

Here is a round-up of all my current Sephora self-care favourites.

I’ve split this list up into two categories – skin care and hair care, since both are major parts of my personal self-care routine.

Skin Care Favs

•The Ordinary 100% Organic Cold-Pressed Rose Hip Seed Oil

Starting with a brand we all know and love - The Ordinary.

I personally love this brand for many reasons, one of which is that they are very affordable. Since the prices are so great, I’ve been able to dabble in a few of their products and find some favs. Rose hip seed oil is also the perfect tool for cold & dry winters. Not only that, it’s an essential part of my gua sha self-care facial treatments!

•Origins Ginzing Vitamin C Eye Cream to Brighten and Depuff

With cold weather creeping up on us, having a lovely citrusy scent to accompany your skin care routine can work wonders for your eyes and your mind! Does citrus remind everyone else of summer?

Working hard to balance a busy schedule and making your dreams come true (and don’t forget your daily workout) all at the same time may be the cause of those under eye bags, but luckily this brightening eye cream contains niacinamide and vitamin C that help to combat both puffy tired under eyes and dry skin!

Dark under eyes used to be a big stressor for me. Now, although I cannot 100% say that this eye cream worked miracles (it may also be that I now prioritize sleep more!) but these last few months, I haven’t thought twice about dark under eyes.

•Supergoop! Glowscreen

Did you know that you should still wear SPF every day in the winter?! Just because it’s a little colder and darker outside, that doesn’t mean there aren’t rays coming down from the sun.

I tried the Supergoop! Glowscreen for the first time this spring and loved it all summer. The Glowscreen specifically has a light tint to it and shine – it gives your skin a gorgeous glowy look. I still love it in the fall (once my natural summer tan has faded) because the tint is very minimal. I don’t feel like my face is different colour from the rest of me and I have a nice healthy glow!

The bottle may seem small for the price, but I bought my current Supergoop! SPF in April, I used it every day and it’s still going – so I would say it’s a pretty good deal. 

If you prefer a more translucent sunscreen, try the Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen. If you’re not 100% sold on buying the full-size bottle, they do have a mini version that is only $26 CAD.

•Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet

Okay this is my absolute favourite perfume! A delicate yet delicious floral scent. This is on my self-care list because I believe that sometimes scents can make you feel emotions (both positive and negative), but this perfume brings such positive vibes whenever I smell it!  

Want to know a secret? If I’m ever having a bad day or feeling down, I spray some of this perfume in the air and it instantly raises my mood – no joke!

Hair Care Favs

•Ouai Detangling and Frizz Fighting Leave in Conditioner

One of my favourite leave-in conditioners to help my hair stay healthy and frizz-free. It’s no secret that I have a little obsession with hair care – my hair is my baby – so I do my best to take great care of it.

Between getting my blonde refreshed every few months and occasionally using heat on my hair, I try my best to keep my hair as healthy as can be while also ensuring I don’t overdo it on the hair products.

Oh and I almost forgot to mention, this products smells amazing!

•Olaplex No. 7 Bonding Oil

A winter hair care essential? A good hair oil! When we think of hair growth, we tend to put lots of the focus on the scalp. Well duh! That where our hair grows. But your hair growth is only as good as your ends.

If your ends are brittle and splitting, welp all that effort your scalp is putting in to grow your hair may go unnoticed.

Finding a good hair oil is the key to keeping hair looking and feeling healthy.

•Slip Silk Pillowcase

Call me a diva but I refuse to sleep on a regular pillow case.

Once you go silk, you can never go back!

 I love silk pillowcases mainly because they help with hair care, protecting from frizz and breakage, but silk pillow cases are also amazing for skin too!

 Also the added bonus of feeling like you’re sleeping on a fancy shmancy pillow! Now I do recognize that this one is definitely on the higher-end of the "spoil yourself spectrum," but fear not - there are tons of other more price-friendly options available on Amazon!

 I will warn you, be careful not to let your partner take a snooze on your fancy pillowcase…or you may never get it back.
