My previous post involved pulling together my absolute favorites for the Sephora Savings Event this fall and subsequently took a peek around the site to see if any of those products were included in the brand’s gift sets. After I shared them on Instagram stories, there was so much interest that it made sense to turn them into their own post for reference throughout the rest of the sale (and holiday season in general)!
If you were interested on getting a better deal than an overall percent off, these sets may fit the bill – plus a couple of extras as a bonus at the end!
Makeup
Nars Mini Insatiable Liquid Blush Duo
Two minis of an amazing liquid blush formula, with each colorway having a different limited* shade.
Lighter set
- Fast Ride (cool pink)
- Hooked* (dusty pink)
Deeper set
- All Access (chocolate cherry)
- Worship* (winterberry)
$6 LESS for MORE product than one full-size + an exclusive shade. If these fit your preferences, it’s a no brainer.
Makeup by Mario Long-Wearing Cream Eyeshadow Duo Gift Set
Two coordinated, full size shadows in two different finishes:
- Mauve (Master Mattes)
- Pink Pearl (Soft Shimmer)
Love the matte formula. I personally am not a big fan of the shimmer formula, but a lot of people seem to like them. It seems like some of the shades have different finishes, so just make sure this is one you like!
$15 savings as opposed to purchasing separately.
Eadem Mini Le Chouchou Peptides Nourishing + Softening Mini Lip Balm Trio
One of the best lip treatments, period. Three minis in three lovely finishes:
- Butter Mochi (unscented, clear)
- Sakura Shaved Ice (milky, translucent, neutral-toned pink with a vanilla latte scent)
- Fig Sauce (cool mauve)
The most value in this one comes from the ability to try different shades without yet committing to the full sizes.
Eadem Le Chouchou Bisous Set Peptides Nourishing + Softening Lip Balm Gift Set
This is the big mama set from them this year. 5 full-sizes in the following finishes:
- Guava Fresca (petal pink)
- Butter Mochi (clear unscented)
- Château Rose (cool, vintage rose with golden-champagne pearls)
- Fig Sauce (cool mauve)
- Burnt Malai (toasted caramel)
Best if you already know you love the formula and need to stock up, or if you’re planning to split with friends or as gifts.
$32 savings if you were to purchase something like this individually!
Ole Henriksen Pout Preserve Mini Hydrating Peptide Lip Trio Set
One of the other best lip treatments! Includes three scents, one of which is limited*:
- Vanilla Bonbon
- Strawberry Sorbet
- Pomegranate Fizz Glimmer*
$1 more to try three scents instead of one, or to put them in different locations if you already love the formula.
If you wanted to try the limited scent + shade, the only other option is through a full size. If you’re not sure you’ll like it, there are two other scents here you’re likely already familiar with.
Danessa Myricks Beauty Lip Gloss On Lock Kit Makeup Gift Set
Same price as the standalone full size but offered in a limited edition shade, Kaleidoscope. It seems to be a clear base with deeper opalescent shimmers in case you wanted a sparkly version of this (gorgeous) formula.
The charm is a cute netted component for those who get good use out of these!
Merit x Erdem Eye and Cheek Gift Set
A fantastic intro for those new to Merit or an opportunity for an existing brand lover to get two (three) limited edition* shades.
Contains:
- Day Glow in Tulle* (rose bronze highlighting balm)
- Mini Flush Balm in Carnation*
- Solo Shadow Sheen in Mink* (soft-grey shimmer)
- Mini Clean Volume Mascara in Black
The official listing says two limited shades, but Mink is only offered in holiday sets. Maybe this is Merit’s way it’s going to become permanent? (If not, this is my official plea to do so, as this is my favorite shade in this formula. Would have been included in cream eyeshadow favorites if available as part of the core line!)
Merit x Erdem Signature Lip Gift Set
One of my favorite brands for lips in three different formulas with one limited* shade.
- Signature Lip Matte in Black Tie*
- Signature Lip Blush in London*
- Signature Lip Satin in Bespoke
Black Tie was previously available in the F/W 2024 Dress Code Set, but both the formula and the shade are discontinued. For those who either love a deeper berry-leaning-burgundy or want to replace the one they got previously, here’s your chance.
London was specifically created as a collaboration shade for this set.
One Size On ‘Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray Big & Bitty Duo
The setting spray for big events, preventing transfer – the heavy hitter. At only $2 more for both the full size and mini compared to the full size alone, you’re nearly getting the mini for free before the discount.
Body
Cyklar Vanilla Verve Body Essentials Gift Set
My favorite overall scent from the brand offered in the body wash, body cream, and perfume oil.
Vanilla Verve is beautiful – sweet without going gourmand, just like a true vanilla extract. Rich with a little bit of spice. A sexy but close + comforting bubble. I don’t rely on my body scents to be as nuanced as a separate fragrance, but this always complements them.
All three products are great. Perfect for vanilla lovers who want to try a few formulas, or who need travel sizes because these are already staples.
Cyklar Sensorial Body Wash Gift Set
Mini body washes in four scents:
- Bergamot Bond
- Naked Neroli
- Sacred Santal
- Vanilla Verve
The body wash is undoubtedly one of the products I use most (i.e. every shower). Sacred Santal is my second favorite scent, though I’ve only heard good things about the other two as well.
$5 more to try four scents in a lovely formula instead of one full size, whether you’re exploring the brand, purchasing for travel, or rotating with the seasons.
Soft Services Buffing Bar Miniature Collection: Volume II
This set gives four different scents, two of which are not available outside of this set:
- Affogato L’Orange
- Cocoa Delight*
- Green Banana
- Eternal Lemon*
A fantastic way for lovers of this bar to get two scents they’ve never tried or for someone new to this product to get a nice idea of what scents are available.
$9 more than the standard set of two full-size.
Honorable Mentions
Those are all of the sets containing items from my prior post – these next ones are honorable mentions!
Anastasia Beverly Hills Soft Kiss Edit Kiss Theory Glossy Shine Lip Balm Trio
This one didn’t quite make the limited list I curated for the sale, but that’s not to say it wasn’t still one of my favorite releases this year.
This set contains three full-sizes:
- Daydream (soft rosy nude)
- Charm (mid-tone rosy mauve)
- Tempted (rich burgundy)
These are all three existing shades, so swatches available. $4 less than two full-size, $22 less than three. When one is $18, kinda like a B2G1 free.
This one is more of a PSA. If you’ve been interested in the Isamaya core palettes for a while, this might be your final opportunity to get them.
The brand was really exciting during the times that these palettes (in their original form) were released and changed packaging – but not formula – upon entering Sephora. However, there did seem to be some kind of disruption to the brand, and it became known earlier this month that Isamaya Ffrench is no longer at her namesake brand, Isamaya.
It looks like some liquidation is happening based on the price drops. Currently available for $77 (instead of $110), and I think the tiered discounts stack.
Honestly a sad one. Isamaya is such a creative, and I hope she’s able to return to that in the capacity she wishes.
That’s everything! There are so many good sets to choose from, so definitely take a look around. Just don’t get caught in the trap of everything being a “good value” – it’s only a good value if it’s valuable to you.
