Sephora is a gold mine for all things beauty and they offer shoppers an outstanding variety of industry-leading makeup products, tools, and essentials to help them get the glam of their dreams. But, with so many amazing goodies on the shelves, it can be a little daunting to navigate the aisles to find the best products that are worth your time and money.

Sephora Best Sellers

To help eliminate this confusion, we decided to take a cue from the pros and see which beauty and skincare products they were obsessed with. After all, they’re the experts, right? From lipstick to eyebrow pencils, and facial mists and foundation brushes, here are the products that makeup artists ALWAYS buy at Sephora:

The 125 Best New Beauty Launches Of 2023
Beauty Elixir

Caudalie Beauty Elixir ($18)

 

"I love this travel-size face mist because it's perfect to toss in your handbag and use throughout the day to refresh the skin. I love using it to set makeup or before foundation for a little extra moisture on the skin," says Kindra Mann, who is a makeup artist to celebs like Kristen Stewart, Maisie Williams, and Rosario Dawson. 

Hills Brow Wiz

Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz ($21)

 

"I would be lost without this product. Taupe and Medium Brown are always in my kit, and I have to stock up on multiples so I never run out. I simply couldn't do makeup without these brow pencils," makeup artist Toby Fleischman says of this bestselling brow pencil. His clients include Ruby Rose, Chrissy Teigen, and Anna Kendrick!

Powder Cartridge

Surratt Beauty Diaphane Loose Powder Cartridge ($20)

 

"Thank goodness this fantastic line is sold at Sephora so it's easily accessible to all beauty lovers. This luxurious powder is one of my favorites because it's translucent, so it works on most skin tones, and the fine powder instantly smoothes and sets the skin and creates a perfect matte look without being cakey. The packaging is also so innovative," Fleischman says of his number one favorite product from Sephora. 

marc jacobs illuminizer stick

Marc Jacobs Beauty Glow Stick Glistening Illuminator ($42) 

 

"I love the Marc Jacobs beauty counter at Sephora and am really digging the brand's new highlight stick as of late," makeup artist Kirin Bhatty says. Her clients include Frieda Pinto, Kate Upton, and Kiernan Schipka!

Multitasking Pencil

Wander Beauty Secret Weapon Multitasking Pencil ($23)

 

"I love, love this pencil for the waterline—it's a miracle. It's flesh-toned, so it works wonders for tired or irritated eyes. It's waterproof (also great for allergy season), and it's a secret weapon for the early mornings or nights," makeup artist Aidan Keogh says, who works with Kendall Jenner and Jasmine Sanders.

Concealer Crème

Kat Von D Lock-It Concealer Crème ($26)

 

"The coverage is incredible and learning how clean the ingredients makes it even more of a staple in my kit," according to makeup artist Daniel Martin. His client list includes Jessica Alba and Olivia Palermo! 

giorgio armani lip maestro

Giorgio Armani Beauty Lip Maestro ($38)

 

"There are lots of long-lasting, matte-finish lip stains on the market, but these ones are superior in my opinion. They don't dry out the lips, and the color selection is just stunning; #400 and #501 are my favorite shades," says celebrity makeup artist Min Min Ma, who works with big names like Suki Waterhouse, Zosia Mamet, and Mia Wasikowska. 

smashbox photo finish primer oil

Smashbox Photo Finish Primer Oil ($42)

 

"This primer oil is always in my basket. I drop it into foundations and even use it as a makeup remover. It's gorgeous," Bhatty explains. 

sephora collection foundation brush

Sephora Collection PRO Liquid Foundation #63 ($32) 

 

"Sephora has an amazing line of brushes at really affordable prices, and this is one of my favorites for applying liquid foundation. I love how it buffs the product into the skin to leave a gorgeous finish. And the new Sephora Collection Hakuho-Do ($35) and Sephora Pro Large Teardrop Pointed Powder Brush ($24) are absolutely gorgeous. I'm obsessed with this collaboration," Fleischman raves.
