Ho, ho, ho! I am so excited because today, I’m partnering with one of my VERY favorite brands SEPHORA and ShopStyle and bringing you my HOLIDAY SAVINGS & EVENT GIFT GUIDE!
Last month, I shared with you…
…my October Sephora Faves and today, I’m sharing my gift guides to (hopefully!) help make your shopping season even easier! Sephora’s Holiday Savings Event is here to bring some joy! Twice a year, Rouge members, VIB members, and Insiders come together to rejoice and reap the benefits of being a valued member of Sephora’s Beauty Insider program. From makeup and skincare to haircare and fragrance, Sephora has all your classic holy-grails and new favorites all in one place.
If you are not already and Insider, you can sign up right HERE.
And bonus, for the second year in a row, I have a video showing you why I love my VERY favorite palette so much!!
So, let’s get started with some FANTASTIC gift sets this holiday season…
I don’t know about you, but giving and receiving holiday gift sets are a regular part of my season. I love a gift set because it doesn’t matter the age, it doesn’t matter their size, shape or any of that stuff, holiday gift sets are just easy and fun to both give and receive. Sephora has so many great sets this year, but I went through and picked out my faves to share with you. Here’s why I love each one right now…
#1: SOL DE JANEIRO WILD EXTRAVAGANZA SET: This is the ultimate Bum Bum Cream set, friends! My very favorite body moisturizer along with a fragrance mist, shower gel and more all in one gift set!
#2: SEPHORA FAVORITES HAIR HOLY GRAILS: This pack has all of those amazing hair faves from Sephora all in one fun box! There are so many cult classics in this one set! If you’ve ever wanted to try out or play around with new hair products, here you go! It’s their 12 bestselling hair products with all of the essentials.
#3: OLAPLEX HOLIDAY HAIR FIX: I’ve told you about this brand several times before. It’s the perfect hydrating solution to dry winter hair.
#4: SEPHORA FAVORITES HOLIDAY PERFUME SAMPLER SET: This is a great gift to give that friend who always loves playing with new scents! These scents range from warm to fresh and everything in between.
#5: ATELIER COLOGNE: Speaking of fragrances, you know how much I adore Atelier Cologne, so I, of course, included their mini perfume wardrobe set too! I’ve given this gift so many times to friends and family.
#6: SEPHORA FAVORITES MEN’S COLOGNE SAMPLER SET: So many people ask me about gifts for the guys in their lives, so here you go! A set of nine of their most sought-after colognes for men.
#7: LANEIGE DREAM & WONDER GIFT SET: This sleep mask hydrates as you sleep! I keep one in my desk and one by my bed to apply all throughout the day. They smell divine and really keep my dry winter lips from chapping and flaking.
#8: SEPHORA FAVORITES GIVE ME MORE LIP LIPSTICK SET: From neutrals to bolds, this lipstick set has something for everyone.
#9: CHARLOTTE TILBURY MINI ICONIC MATTE REVOLUTION LIPSTICK TRIO: I have been loving this set! All three shades are easy to wear…
…and perfect for fall and winter!
#10: Speaking of easy to wear…
…you guys have heard me rave about these Too Face Melted Mattes all fall long! I love that the color lasts all day, that they don’t rub off on the inside of your mask and this holiday set here all smell like your favorite Christmas treats!
#11: SEPHORA FAVORITES BABY, LET’S GLOW OUTSIDE BRONZE AND GLOW SET: In the winter, when I’m not seeing sunlight, I need a little faux-glow every time I apply my makeup!
#12: SEPHORA FAVORITES LASHSTASH SET: This is a set of their 10 bestselling lash products including primers, lash enhancing serum, a pair of false lashes and of course, mascara!
#13: BOBBI BROWN MINI GET GLOSSY LIP GLOSS SET: Four hydrating, non-sticky, mini glosses in brightly shining pinks and nudes!
#14: URBAN DECAY HEAVY DOSE ALL NIGHTER LONG-LASTING MAKEUP SETTING SPRAY: Have you ever tried a setting spray? I have used this one many times before! After you apply your makeup, you lightly spray your face with this and bam, your makeup stays longer throughout the day. I also find this helps revive makeup after a long day.
#15: CHARLOTTE TILBURY MINI PILLOW TALK LIP SET: This four-piece lip set features full-size Matte Revolution Lipstick along with other iconic Pillow Talk lip products. The ultimate nude lip.
#16: TARTE MARACUJA JUICY LIP TRIO: A trio of juicy lip products that treat and tint your lips!
#17: BOBBI BROWN SHEER INDULGENCE EXTRA LIP TINT TRIO: One time I went into the store to get a makeover and she used this on my lips before applying pencil or lipstick. She said it was a must for keeping lips from getting flaky beneath matte lipsticks.
#18: NARS VELVET MATTE LIPSTICK PENCIL DUO: A travel-size duo of NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil which instantly brighten up your face.
#19: BENEFIT COSMETICS TOGETHER AT LASH FULL-SIZE MASCARA SET: This trio kit will get your lashes holiday ready!
#20: SEPHORA FAVORITES MAKEUP MUST HAVES: A set of their eight bestselling makeup products! The perfect set for exploring and experimenting!
#21: TARTELETTE GIVE, GIFT & GET AMAZONIAN CLAY EYESHADOW: This set includes three lil’ tartelette eyeshadow palettes.
And believe it or not, there are even MORE gift sets at Sephora that you can see right HERE!
Okay, one more thing before we wrap up our holiday gift guides. This time last year, I discovered…
…this palette right here. Friends, I cannot stress to you enough, I used this entire palette…to the pan! When I had used mine all up, I was so disappointed not to see it in stores any longer, so as you can imagine, I was THRILLED when it came back this year too and have already bought it again!! Not only does it have everything you need to create either the “every day” face or the “going out” face, but that bronzer there is the BEST BRONZER I’VE EVER USED and unfortunately, it’s not sold separately. I made a video last year explaining why I love this palette so much, but thought it deserved another one this year too…
Oh how I love you, Sephora!! You make every day more fun, but you especially make holiday gifting extra fabulous too!! Don’t forget…
…if you’re a Sephora Beauty Insider, there are major savings for you RIGHT NOW when you shop Sephora!
Happy Thursday, friends!! If you have other gift guide ideas for me, please share in the comment section! I’m going to continue to sprinkle them in all fall long!

Shay, I have a question for you…is there any makeup out there that wont rub off or transfer to your hair? I have silver hair and no matter what makeup I use it rubs right off onto the wisps on the side of my face when i put my makeup on- an so instead of silver wisps i have orange! It is so maddening. i tried a setting spray and some white powder over the top to no avail…thanks….
Mix and Match Mama says
Ohhhhh! That’s a great question! Okay, I love the Hourglass foundation stick (the one I always talk about) because you can easily control where you apply it (since it’s a stick!) and I’ve always thought it doesn’t melt/rub off/move during the day. I’ve noticed it stays pretty put and not all over my mask too. Maybe you should try that one?!
Elspeth says
What a super fun post!!! Thanks for all the information!

Mary says
The Charlotte Tilbury site has all 3 colors of the pallet. I got the Gorgeous Glowing last year and loved it.
Dustie Day says
Love the palette! Question, how do you use the highlighter? They always confuse me!
Mix and Match Mama says
I typically use it to “freshen” up my makeup later in the day (brow bone, tops of cheeks, inside corners of my eye).
Erika Slaughter says
Oooohhhhh!!!! I’d love any of those under my tree!
Rhonda says
I’m definitely snagging that CT palette while it’s available! Can you share the eye brushes you used in this video?
Kelly says
Bought the palette, so excited to use it for the holidays, even if we’re just at home;). What are your go to make up brushes?
Mix and Match Mama says
Over the years, I’ve bought Bobbi Brown for all of my brushes. They last FOREVER, wash well and apply so easily!!
Theresa Childs says

Terry says
Thanks for the video of the palette. How would you use the highlighter?
Mix and Match Mama says
I typically use it to “freshen” up my face in the afternoons. A little on the brow bone, top of the cheeks and you’re good to go!
Kim says
#4, 9, 10 are already on the way to my house for my teenage stepdaughter for Christmas!…. and maybe a few more than what’s on your list ?

Kimberly.
Mix and Match Mama says
Awwww! I hope you love it and have a great time!!
Julie says
Hi Shay!
I love this video, especially now that I bought the palette! Question, when and where do you add the highlighter?? After blush? Or just on special occasions?
Mix and Match Mama says
I typically add it later in the day if I’m trying to “freshen” up the whole look (or not at all!).
