The Beauty Essentials to Stock Up On While They Are On Sale

Happy long weekend, everyone! If you are anything like me, you always have a running list of beauty products you want to try but are waiting for a good sale. Well, the wait is over because Labor Day weekend brings some of the best beauty deals of the year.

I have tested hundreds of beauty products over the years, and these are the ones I swear by. From my holy grail foundation to the lip color that gets me the most compliments, I am sharing everything that is currently on sale this weekend.

Makeup Must-Haves

Let us start with makeup because that is where I get most excited. The Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Foundation is hands down the best foundation I have ever used. It gives you that airbrushed, poreless finish without looking cakey. It is currently 20% off at Sephora and I am stocking up.

The Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk lipstick is another one that needs no introduction. This shade flatters literally every skin tone and the formula is incredibly comfortable. I wear this almost daily and always get asked what lipstick I am wearing. It is the perfect your-lips-but-better shade.

For eyes, the Urban Decay Naked palette is 30% off at Ulta. This is the palette I reach for most often when I want a neutral, everyday look. The shadows are buttery smooth and blend like a dream. If you do not own this yet, now is the time.

Skincare Investments

Sephora is running a skincare sale event that includes some of my favorites. The Drunk Elephant Protini moisturizer has completely transformed my skin. It is packed with peptides and amino acids that plump and hydrate. My skin has never looked better since I started using it.

For serum lovers, the SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic is the gold standard of vitamin C serums. Yes, it is pricey, but it is one of those products that truly delivers results. It brightens, firms, and protects against environmental damage. Saks has a gift with purchase option right now.

The La Mer Moisturizing Cream is the ultimate luxury skincare splurge. I know it has a cult following for a reason. My skin feels so incredibly soft and nourished when I use this. It is rarely on sale but Neiman Marcus has gift card promotions happening this weekend.

Hair Care Heroes

The Dyson Airwrap is probably the best beauty investment I have ever made. It is currently discounted at several retailers and I cannot recommend it enough. It dries and styles your hair simultaneously with minimal heat damage. I use mine almost every day.

For everyday hair care, the Olaplex No. 3 Hair Perfector is on sale at both Sephora and Ulta. This treatment repairs damaged hair from the inside out. I use it once a week and the difference in my hair is remarkable. My hair is shinier, stronger, and more manageable.

The Virtue Labs Restorative Hair Mask is another product I cannot live without. It is made with alpha keratin from human hair, so it works on a molecular level to repair damage. It leaves my hair feeling silky smooth and looks salon-fresh.

Fragrance Finds

Fragrance is rarely on sale, which is why I am so excited about the deals happening right now. The Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 is my signature scent and Saks is offering a complimentary gift set with purchase. This fragrance is warm, woody, and absolutely intoxicating.

For something more everyday, the Glossier You perfume is the perfect skin scent. It smells different on everyone and it is like your natural scent but elevated. Glossier is offering 20% off sitewide this weekend.

Stock Up While You Can

These sales do not last long and my go-to shades and products tend to sell out quickly. If anything caught your eye, I would recommend placing your order sooner rather than later. I will be updating my stories throughout the weekend with any additional deals I find. Happy shopping!
