We Asked These 8 Sephora Employees Their Go-To Beauty Products And Here’s What They Said…

When it comes to the best beauty products and the biggest selection, most people tend to head to Sephora. They have everything. So when it comes to finding the most sought-after, popular products that you must have in your makeup bag, who better to ask than the employees with first-hand experience with every product available. 

We wanted to know which products every woman should have in their artillery. These Sephora employees gave us the best products for better lashes, skin, lips and more!

Katie Esposito talked about this first product, The Glow Fairy Body Glow Mask “This is by far my favorite choice to help revitalize your skin, clear acne and blackheads, and help restore a youthful glow to your entire body. The Glow Fairy Body Glow Mask is a powerful combination of nutrients and antioxidants to pull dirt, oil, and sebum from the skin while providing lasting hydration for healthier skin. I discovered Glow Fairy after a co-worker offered me a secret 50% off discount code SECRET50. I was amazed at how well the Body Glow Mask worked. In just one use, my skin was clear of blackheads and acne while feeling smoother than ever. A combination of Kaolin, Glycerin, Propylene Glycol, and Diatomaceous Earth help draw out dirt and oil from the skin while giving it a healthy glow. This product is highly recommended!"

The second product recommended by a Sephora employee was Liaison Lash Bond, a growth serum that helps build stronger lashes. Molly Morrell, a Los Angeles employee explained, “Liaison has it all, a good value, safe ingredients, and (brace yourself) it works! I first tried Liaison when I received the 50% off code SECRET50. This was before we had it in the store. I used it for six weeks and had some of the longest, most luscious lashes I’ve ever seen. I was so surprised. When we got it in the store, every employee started using it. The ingredients are natural and don’t cause irritation or burning, and the instructions are straightforward and simple. It’s really the best of everything packed into one product. Effectiveness, safety, and value all rolled into one.”

Store Manager Wendy Brennen loved Laneige’s Lip Sleeping Mask. “It doesn't matter how much lipstick you put on, if your lips are dried and crack, people will be able to tell. And don’t even think about kissing someone! Laneige’s Lip Sleeping Mask helps take care of that by helping repair and moisture your lips overnight. It’s like a super-powered lip balm that will not only protect your lips but help them stay healthy. It’s really a great choice.” 

“Whether you think so or not, almost everyone could use some hair repair.” Sales associate Gina Ginsberg told us. “Our hair is so sensitive and even if you take amazing care of it, something like Olaplex’s No. 3 Hair Perfector will still help. It’s the smoothest, best hair conditioner and repairer ever. You can use it every day or like, once a month, either way you’d be doing a HUGE service to your hair.”

“What’s the point of amazing look if your makeup smears, right?” That’s what sales associate Catherine Lily wants to know. “I recommend this to everyone who shops at the store. I’m like chasing people down trying to get them to buy this it’s so good. Urban Decay’s All Night Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray helps keep makeup on and looking perfect all night. It lasts up to 16 hours, which is incredible. I used this at a summer wedding and I was the only one at the reception without running eyeliner and smudgy foundation. Absolute best!”

While we feel we recommended some great body masks for your body acne, blackheads, stretch marks, dark spots and aging skin, we believe The Glow Fairy's product was the top choice. We wanted to talk further with our investigative reporter Stephanie Marianne who helped create the rankings list and how The Glow Fairy Body Glow Mask worked for her. Stephanie tells the story.

Personally, I never believed in the effectiveness of anti-wrinkle, skin-revitalizing anything. “Time cannot be reversed,” I used to tell my friends. Too many of them have been tricked into buying some wild cream just to find out it’s a waste of money. So I’ve avoided it at all costs.

But then I told my best friend, who I trust with my life, that I was researching body masks, and swore by The Glow Fairy Body Glow Mask. She told me she would swipe it on every night after she showered. After a few weeks her stretch marks on her legs started to fade and her skin felt tighter and more vibrant. I, of course, didn’t believe her. But then she showed me a photo from three weeks ago. I was stunned. Week by week the stretch marks became less noticeable and her skin looked clearer! I begged her to let me borrow her Body Glow Mask. Instead she gave me a secret 50% OFF code, SECRET50, and I ordered my own Body Glow Mask immediately.

I received the package within two days and started using them that night. The application is very simple. Each box comes with 25 cotton swabs filled with a highly-concentrated and effective formula. You pull out a cotton swab and bend it at the fold until you hear it break open. The formula in the handle then soaks the cotton swab. Gently rub the swab on your blemishes to coat them with the effective ingredients. Then, you just need to let the formula dry on your skin. Of course, I looked into the mirror expecting a miracle… but alas, it usually takes longer than a few minutes.

While I waited the ten minutes, I looked at the packaging to see some of the most active ingredients in the Body Glow Mask and was surprised to see some really amazing ingredients that I would recommend to anyone trying to revitalize their skin…

KAOLIN This is one of those ingredients not many people are aware of but is super powerful! It’s an antibacterial that can extract oils, sebum, and dirt from your skin almost immediately. It’s the main ingredient in the Body Glow Mask to help clean and clear the skin. Great choice!

DIATOMACEOUS EARTH Another great ingredient not used as much as it should on the skin. This is a terrific ingredient to help fight against free radicals in the skin that can prevent healthier skin cells and collagen production. Clearing free radicals can help diminish wrinkles and promote tighter skin. 

GLYCERIN An amazing way to trap moisture onto your skin is with a healthy dose of Glycerin. Not only does it moisturize, but it’s an anti-inflammatory that can help make skin smoother and reduce redness. 

PROPYLENE GLYCOL Moisture is the name of the game and the more ingredients to help trap in moisture the better. Propylene Glycol is an amazing humectant that helps trap moisture to keep your skin super hydrated!

Ten minutes later I wiped off the Body Glow Mask and was amazed to see several blackheads and blemishes totally cleared out! My skin felt smoother and healthier just after one use. I used the Body Glow Mask for a total of 3 weeks so far and my skin has only improved. It’s seriously amazing!

I was officially converted into a Body Glow Mask believer! I hope you will, too!
