What we recommend buying from Sephora
We regularly feature brands from Sephora in our gift guides and beauty roundups here at Marie Claire. Whether you’re looking for one of the best lipsticks of all time or the best glitter eyeshadows, Sephora has hundreds of brands with a variety of makeup products that you can shop at any given moment.
Looking for lipstick? We recommend Rare Beauty’s Kind Words Matte Lipstick which boasts a hydrating formula that coats lips and leaves a layer of soft pigment for a picture-perfect finish. And it’s available in 10 shades so you’re bound to find a color that best suits your complexion and preferences.
As for foundation, you can’t ever go wrong with a full coverage option like Fenty Beauty’s Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear Liquid Foundation. This buildable foundation is formulated for oily, combination, and normal skin to provide a smooth matte finish. And it’ll stay on for hours with its climate-adaptive technology that protects against heat, sweat, and shine.
When it comes to the eyes, a palette with a plethora of bold and neutral tones is the way to go so you can create a variety of looks. Too Faced’s Pinker Times Ahead Eyeshadow Palette features 14 eyeshadows in different colors and finishes (matte, metallic, and shimmer) which can be used for different looks.

What if my promo code doesn’t work?
Our team always tries to make sure any out-of-date sales or incorrect codes are not included on our coupon pages. To do this, we check a few things, including:
- Trying the code and checking if they are valid ourselves.
- Check we don’t have any unique, one-use codes.
- Looking at the offer conditions to make sure you’ve got all the information.
However, there are occasions when details change or the codes may expire without us knowing. If this happens, be sure to contact us by emailing coupons.marieclaire@futurenet.com so we know.
How do we make money?
It’s completely free for customers to use the coupon codes we have above. We’ll get a small percentage of the money spent as a commission from the retailer you shop at. As with most businesses, we do need to make money however this will never impact the price you pay. The brand will give us a small share of the profit for connecting you to them. This helps us keep going whilst saving you more money.
Simply put, the retailer makes a sale, we get a commission, and you get a discount.
