Whether you’re restocking your skincare staples, refreshing your makeup for the season ahead, or finally trying what’s been on your wish list, this is the time to buy and try. It’s also the ideal time to revisit the products that have already proven their place in your routine.

Ahead, we’re sharing everything you need to know, along with our tips for shopping the 2026 Sephora Spring Savings Event and seven standout picks, including products we’ve tested, repurchased, and a few currently on our wish list.

Tips for Shopping the 2026 Sephora Spring Savings Event

• Check the fine print. Byredo, for example, is excluded from the sale, so if you were hoping to buy this and save, use your Beauty Insider Cash or your Rouge Rewards to save on this fragrance. You can use the discount on brands like Dyson and Shark, but you are limited in the number of products that you can buy from those lines.
• Take a look at what you want and your points’ status. If you are spending less than $100.00 and you are an Insider, skip the 2026 Sephora Spring Savings Event and use your Beauty Insider Cash. You will save more and your points won’t go to waste.
• Check the Sephora sale section. You can get some great products that are already on sale, like my favourite Danessa Myricks Beauty Groundwork: Blooming Romance – Palette For Eyes, Brows, Face & Lips. It is almost $30.00 off and you can use your discount on sale items. It’s a win-win.
• Think about your own beauty collection. If you really want something, now is a good time. If you are on the fence, the best way to save money is to not spend. Depending on what you have in your collection, it can take years to finish and eyeshadow palette or a bullet lipstick.
• Check out your favourite brand’s e-commerce store. They may have better sales or gifts with purchase.
• Finally, always pick up your Beauty Insider Birthday Gift and test those products before the sale. You receive a generous, deluxe sample size of at least two products from participating brands, and you can try premium brands before you invest in them. This year, my pick is the Tower 28 Everyday Must Duo – I’ve never tried the brand and I want to see if it lives up to the hype.

Now for our picks for the 2026 Sephora Spring Savings Event:

Tried and Tested Favourites:

Byoma Creamy Jelly Cleanser – $19.00*

Byoma is new to Sephora, although it has been available since 2022. I’ve reviewed the Creamy Jelly Cleanser before and it is a standout. It is gentle enough for my sensitive skin and doesn’t leave it feeling tight or dry. It’s an affordable standout in the skin-care category. A single bottle goes the distance – mine lasted well over six months with daily use.

Makeup by Mario MoistureGlow Plumping Lip Serum – $36.00

This was part of the Beauty Insider Birthday Gift for 2025, and I was impressed. MoistureGlow Plumping Lip Serum is hydrating and glossy. I love the Rosewood that was part of the gift – it’s a true, neutral leaning mauve that is flattering for a variety of different skin tones. There is a slight tingle to this product, but it is barely noticeable. I can’t say that it was truly plumping, but when your lips are hydrated they just look better.

Yves Saint Laurent Candy Glow Tinted Butter Balm – $54.00

If you want more of a true tinted lip balm, Yves Saint Laurent Candy Glow Tinted Butter Balm is one of my favourites. It is luxurious (it should be for the price tag) and the packaging is beautiful. It feels nourishing for dry lips and gives enough colour payoff so that you don’t need to wear a lipstick over it. It also lasts for several hours which is unusual for a balm.

Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Crease-Proof Long-Wear Blur Concealer with Hyaluronic Acid – $49.00*

If you are looking for a concealer that won’t crease under your eyes, Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Crease-Proof Long-Wear Blur Concealer is the one for you. I’ve tested it and haven’t experienced any creasing or pilling. It is a stand-out concealer that lasts and most importantly, isn’t drying. It is easy to apply – the diamond-shaped applicator provides precision. The finish is smooth and natural.

The Wishlist:

There are too many products out there for me to test, and some have landed on my wishlist for one reason or another. This time, eyeshadow palettes are my heart’s desire. They are the most fun category in makeup and are having a resurgence. Here are some that I’m considering:

Patrick Ta Major Dimension Eye Illusion Eyeshadow Duo – $57.00

I have wanted this duo since they launched, but just couldn’t pull the trigger, although this may be the year. The taupe duo looks easy to apply (from reviews that I’ve seen) and the shades and finishes are stunning. If you have a friend that has Rouge Status, you may be able to get a 20% discount – they can offer to share their discount with one person. If I find that person – this is a must-try for me.

Natasha Denona Luxe Glam Compact Quad Eyeshadow Palette – $69.00

Natasha Denona is back at Sephora Canada and it’s about time! The beloved makeup artist has been absent for several years and now we can try all of her acclaimed products again. Quad palettes are having a moment. They are easy to apply, you can get two different looks out of them, they take up less room, and take some of the confusion out of how to match different shades within a palette since they will all look good together. Denona’s Luxe Glam Compact Quad Eyeshadow Palette has two mattes, one metallic, and one sparkling foil shade. My favourite is the taupe Cool (are you seeing a trend?).

Danessa Myricks Beauty LIGHTWORK VII The Freedom Makeup Palette – $178.00

I have yet to try a Danessa Myricks product that I haven’t liked. This beauty is on my wishlist for a few reasons: the colours are gorgeous and there is something for everyone, it is travel friendly since you can stack the products to make them more compact, and there are unique finishes. At $178.00, it’s definitely a splurge, even with up to 20% off, but if you are a fan of Myricks, now is the time to buy. Her LIGHTWORK palettes are generally limited edition.

Everybody’s wish list may look different depending on what is in their collection. Remember, Sephora will have another sale in the fall if you have missed out on something that you truly want.
