    Default If you had $25 to spend on Sephora.com, what would you buy?

    I have a $25 gift certificate to use on Sephora.com and I have no idea what to buy! I know, I know, that doesn't buy you much on there. LOL Makeup (particularly eyeshadow, eyeliner and lipstick) and hair products are my favorite things. I don't need perfume because I have plenty of stuff here that I like. I also don't need bath or shower products. I'm willing to spend over $25 if there's something on there I really like, but I don't want to spend a ton of money. Thanks in advance for your help!

    Forgot to add: my hair is pretty damaged from coloring it, so any hair product recommendations on there for anything that will make my hair sleek, shiny, unfrizzy, and healthy looking would be great!

    Eye cream... yup, definiately eye cream for me.

    Try Redken's Anti Snap leave-in treatment for your hair. Use it for a week, then use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner for a week, then back to Anti Snap. When you get your hair as healthy as you think it'll get, use it once a week.

    hmmm... 25 bucks?

    I would get lorac lip polish or some kind of face mask. Maybe bare essentials if you don't have any of her stuff.

    I recently bought Oscar Blandi's Proteine di Jasmine Protein Mist for restyling hair.

    http://www.sephora.com/browse/produc...tegoryId=5681#

    It's made to spray on your hair the next day to restyle without washing OR to spray it on damp hair to detangle and fortify. It smells so freakin good! I carry mine in my purse with me and just give my hair a couple of spritzes throughout the day. God I love the smell! Boys seem to like it too! I have lately been meticulous about protein and moisture for my hair since I had it mega highlighted.

    Regardless of what you get, here's the latest deluxe sample code: SPLASH1 just enter it during checkout.

    Urban Decay eyeshadow! I love the stuff and it costs a small fortune.

    For your hair, there are all kinds of great products, but the best rejuvenating mask I've ever found for my dried-out hair is mayonnaise. I do realize this is my second off-label mayonnaise recommendation for this week, and I promise I don't work for Hellman's, but mayonnaise is great for your hair. It's basically just egg and oil - which translates to protein and moisture. Shampoo your hair, rinse, and then massage a big glop of mayo into the ends only. Wrap it in a towel and go do something for about 15-30 minutes (I shave my legs and lie in the tub to read). Rinse out all the mayonnaise and proceed as usual.

    A vinegar rinse is also good for making your hair really shiny. After you finish rinsing but before you get out of the tub, pour plenty of vinegar into your hair and massage it through. Then get out without rinsing. The smell of the vinegar will go away when it evaporates, and it'll leave your hair incredibly super-shiny.

    Apparantly there's this OMGEYELASHCURLER for about $20 that is used by movie stars and promotes the best eyelash curling ever. o.O

    Thanks for all the responses, and please keep them coming! Man, there is so much cool stuff on that website that I have a feeling I'm going to end up spending way more than $25. There's only one Sephora store in the whole state of Wisconsin, and it's about two hours away from me. I'm glad there's not one closer to me, or I'd go bankrupt! LOL

    I would chip in the extra $10 out of my pocket and buy Hope in a Jar by Philosophy.

    Jane mag noted that the best eyelash curler they'd come across was (I think) Wet 'n'Wild's little gray plastic one. I bought one for like three or four dollars tops, and I have to say that it's the best one I've ever used. It's about two inches long, an inch and a half wide, flat on top and curved on the bottom.
    Don't know about the one stated above, but you could always try the cheap version.

    Edit: wnwbeauty.com or it's on Walgreen's site for 1.99 under Accessories Travel Sized Eyelash Curler by Wet n Wild.

    As for my pick: I'd go for any redken conditioners and shampoos, though at some salons they have specials that might not be offered at Sephora.
    Do you ever head out to the area that has the Sephora, even though it's two hours away? I'd say to make it a fun event to look forward to, and get your makeup done by one of the pros. That way you can learn some neat tricks for free and then pick up any product that you really liked that they used. If you don't like any of them, there's still Redken

    Shu Uemura's lash curler... It freakin' rocks! They make an awesome fermaldahyde free lash glue, too.

    Cant go wrong with Philosophy stuff. Also, I really like pretty much anything by Frederic Fekkai for hair care.

    Their Lash Placement Kit, puts on false eyelashes easily and probably some lashes to go with it.

    Lip Fusion lip plumper. You'll have to chip in @ $10 of your own money, but SOOO worth it! I have had my tube for about 3 months now.

    Funny I'm just reading this and see Tampafldancer posting about Bare Essensials and an eyeshadow brush. I just went to Sephora yesterday and bought both of those things (along with some eyeshadow). I spent more than $25 though. That place could be addicting.
