BACK IN STOCK: Sephora Favorites Soko to Tokyo Customizable Skin Care Set (PS: Freebie Code Ideas)


IT'S BACK IN STOCK! Thanks to readers Moods Views and Marcy for the hot tips! Here's my original post:

The new Sephora Favorites Soko to Tokyo Customizable Skin Care Set is now available for purchase on the Sephora website HERE for $25. Unlike other Sephora Favorites sets, YOU CHOOSE the five products you want to receive (out of the 13 products in the item listing). These items will then be added to your basket separately (after you click "add all to basket"), with each individual retail value listed, but your FINAL PRICE will be $25.

Here's a breakdown of  all 13 options with sizes and links to each product:


UPDATE: 

Reader Angelin kindly broke down the value of each of these deluxe samples for us, so that you can get the most bang for your buck! She writes:

If the sizes listed in your post are correct, [I got them from the Sephora site, so they are! - G.] the best value item to get would be the Skin Inc. Pure Deepsea Hydrating Mask - it retails at $75 for 1.7oz, so a 0.68oz size would be valued at $30. In case it helps anyone else when making decisions, I calculated the values for each of the sample sizes (based on the largest full-size product available at Sephora): 

Tatcha - $10.83
Dr. Jart - $15.84
Caolion - $7.76
belif - $14.93
Skin Inc. - $30.00
AmorePacific - $12.96
Too Cool for School - $10.00
Karuna - $7.00
boscia - $11.90
Erborian - $6.09
When - $7.00
Shiseido - $5.85
SK-II - $6.81

And just a reminder (because you haven't heard this enough, I know!), if you don't already have free shipping due to your VIB status, you should really consider signing up for Sephora Flash if you don't already have it. For $10 a year, you get free unlimited 2-day shipping on all orders. It pays for itself after just two orders. Plus, your subscription starts the moment you add it to your cart, meaning that anything else you buy will ship free. It's so handy for these sets.

Thanks again, 
Moods Views, Marcy, and Angelin, for the great tips!

  1. I just ordered another set even though I got one before also! The promo code "TINTTIME" is a deluxe sample of the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer.

    2. It doesn't say the shade but it's .5 oz and the travel size that goes for $22 is 1 oz. What did you end up getting?

      Delete
    3. Thank you! I think I might get the MUFE mascara (code just added to list) because I'm a sucker for samples of mascaras I will never buy for full-price. Lol! Oh and I'm still deciding on my order. Decisions decisions! :)

  2. Finally snagged this deal! Thanks for sharing. Also you can get a free Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 20 deluxe sample with the code TINTTIME

    1. Thanks, girlie! I added that one a little earlier, as well as some other good ones! Take a look at the list again if you're still ordering! :D

  3. Thanks so much! I had requested an email from Sephora when the item was restocked, but haven't gotten one. You're a life saver.

    Just so you know, I tried GLOWING and it said, "Sorry, the promotion you have entered has expired or has run out of inventory. Please select another promotion code." So unless this is somehow specific to the warehouse that will be shipping to me, that one's dead.

    1. You're so welcome! I requested an email too, but I have yet to receive one (thank goodness for these amazing readers!!).

      Oh, and I removed the GLOWING code a few moments ago--probably right as you were leaving your comment. That was the ONLY code I didn't test for some reason (go figure). Lol! ;)

    1. OMG it's working again?? I tested it when I wrote this post and it was out of stock!

    2. Omg I'm so sorry, the item was left in my cart and I didn't notice it was out of stock until I clicked on check out >.<

  5. Yay thanks! I was also signed up for an alert but didn't recieve one.

  6. The 3.38 oz Egg Mousse Pack is $20, but when you check out with this set it says that the 1.69 oz one is $20 ? I know the other prices are also a bit odd so I figured it was nothing. But when I went to check if they even had a 1.69 oz for sale, there actually was one and it says that one is also $20. Weird. Why would anybody buy the travel sized one for the same price as the full size...maybe it's just a glitch.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I saw that too and thought it was weird as well. I was thinking maybe since after the discount the 1.69 oz is less than $20, they left that price on it since it comes in the sephora favorites set and the 3.38 oz one doesn't.

      Delete
    2. It's just the way they set up the pricing for items included in the set so that they can do a flat discount of $100 for the 5 items - they're not expecting anyone to buy these listings outside of the set.

      Delete
  7. Yay I was hoping this would be back in stock!!! Thanks for the heads up! :)

  8. Got it this time, and used LETSMASK to add on yet another mask for my collection.

  13. Thanks for the tip! I've been really into skincare items lately, so this is not helping my recent shopping spree. But it's such a good deal! lol

  14. Aaaand I re-enrolled in flash shipping. Nice. But seriously this is a great set I'm so excited to try it out! If only there were better promo codes.

  16. The 'select' buttons are not working now, so you can only add the items to the basket ($20 each), not the complete set... :-(
    Not working properly, I think...

    ReplyDelete
  17. Not working for me at all. Tried three different browsers. Can't actually select items to add to the cart because when I click "select," it takes me to a separate page where I can add that item to my cart individually, but "add all to basket" is not an option because I can't actually select items on the set page. I have tried adding 5 of the items to my cart by clicking through to those other pages but nothing is ever taken off the order total.

    Probably a sign that I didn't really need it, I guess...

    (Have only tried on a desktop. Don't have a mobile device.)

    1. I had the exact same problem.

      Delete
    2. I had same issue- I couldn't add the items to my cart all at once - so I went on my phone Sephora app and was able to add them. Then I reset the page on my computer and all the items were in my cart on the computer.

      Delete
  18. I got the set, but I had to call sephora to manually order it because the price would not change.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Thanks for posting and including the prices and codes. So convenient!
    It didn't work right on my desktop, so what worked for my is adding the skincare set to me "loves" list, then adding it to my cart from my loves list, and then adding on up to 5 of the "$20" items i wanted. As long as the set was in my items, it rang up as $25 at the end.

    1. brilliant, that worked! Now the problem is there are only 7 items available to chose from lol.

  20. I got 5 of the Dr.Jart in one set!

    1. You can get multiples? Oh I didn't know that!! How do you like the BB Cream?

      Delete
    2. I was able to get five of the Tatcha powder cleansers (It's normally $15.00 for the .35oz travel size in the store). It was the only thing I really wanted to try. I just changed the item amount to five and it worked! I wasn't really expecting it to so I was super surprised. The full size which is 2.1oz and is priced at $65.00. So that means I got 5/6 the size of a full one for less than half the price.

      Delete
    3. I hope to like this bb cream as much as I like the gold one.

  21. ack the GIVEGET promo was restocked now I'm thinking of placing another order to get it...and there's a ton of stuff in the sale section I want. Love the sephora nano eyeliners...darrrn.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Ugh. They somehow screwed up my order and only sent one sample I selected. :( I got a refund and 500 points but pretty disappointing.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I did it! I got the skincare! I happen to already adore three of the five products I selected so I'm a happy wee thing :D
