Holiday Gift Guide: Sephora-Exclusive Edition

Have you been tuning in so far? Every Wednesday until Christmas, I’ll be bringing you new editions of the holiday gift guide. So far, I’ve shown you some bath and body gift sets, and some stocking stuffer ideas.

The Bon Bons Holiday Gift Guide train rolls on this week as I take it to the makeup mecca, Sephora, and suggest some of their limited edition, exclusive-to-Sephora gift sets. A nice way to say, “you’re special,” and “you’re worth it.”

Without further ado, here are this week’s picks:

lorac social beautyflyThe LORAC Social Beautyfly has got to have the most gorgeous packaging. This pretty set comes housed in a gold-foiled, tri-fold mirrored case with box. It contains six eyeshadows, a warm crimson blush, Pink Champagne lip gloss and a face/body luminizing powder, plus makeup tools. A $150 value that retails for $49.

bare escentuals sephora exclusiveThe Bare Escentuals Shake Your Tail Feather is a nine-piece collection of must-haves from the line. Includes a pinkish all-over face color, a sheer emerald-colored eye color, a sheer henna-colored eyeshadow, the Big Tease Mascara in Blackest Black, Beautifully Luminous Lashes mascara in gold and Buxom Lips in Dolly (dusty mauve). Everything comes in a bronze-colored clutch that opens up into an eye-catching peacock print. A $131 value that retails for $55.

beccaI’ve been hearing all about Becca these days. The brand hails from Australia, and their Beach Tint is all the rage (it’s currently sold out at Sephora). The Becca Hypnotise Gift Set is a great intro kit to the brand. It features a Line & Illuminate Pencil Mustique (bronze brown eyeliner/silver pink eyeshadow), Lip & Cheek Creme in Tuberose (fresh pink) and Geranium (muted red), JD Xantho (glimmering gold), and Glossy Lip Tint in Maraschino (sheer red). A $93 value that retails for $55.

The set includes a white lash primer, black mascara, their famous Photo Finish Foundation Primer, a blush duo, Lip Gloss in Location (pink shimmer) and Illuminated (pearlescent white), and an Eyeshadow Trio in Freeze Frame (matte cream, shimmering olive and plum). A $140 value that retails for $59.

too faced sephoraToo Faced The Jewelry Box is a spectacle of makeup and color! How can you resist? Eight eyeshadows, six lip glosses, a duo bronzer, foundation powder, brow powder, eyeliner cake and blush.

    My Favorite exclusive Sephora Holiday gift is the Laura Geller’s Baked Beauties collection - wish they had it in their stores so everyone could see it. Her bronzers are the best!

  4. gr8face Says:

    I think I’d open a vein without Sephora.

  5. Judi Bennett Says:

    I am praying that Sephora will soon carry ReVive Skincare….it is so amazing but $$$$.

  6. maddie Says:

    I started using Social Beautyfly kit a month ago and I don’t know how I lived without it! The brush is good too!

  7. Christina Says:

    Wow - that’s good to know! Usually the brushes/applicators that come with the makeup are crappy.
