SEPHORA

Thanks to longtime contributor Marcy for the tip that there's a new Sephora Favorites choose-your-own-products haircare value set on the Sephora site HERE for $25 (up to $80 value).

You get to choose FIVE of the following:

- 3 oz/ 88 mL Madam CJ Walker Defining Butter Crème 
- 3 oz/ 88 mL DevaCurl SuperCream 
- 2.4 oz/ 70 mL Verb Sea Spray 
- 2 oz/ 59 mL Bumble & bumble. Pre-Style/Re-Style Primer 
- 1.8 oz/ 53 mL Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo 
- 1.7 oz/ 50 mL Ouai Wave Spray 
- 1.67 oz/ 49 mL Drybar Triple Sec 3-in-1 
- 1.35 oz/ 39 mL Christophe Robin Cleansing Purifying Scrub with Sea Salt 
- 1.3 oz/ 38 mL Drybar Detox Dry Conditioner 
- 1 oz/ 29 mL Briogeo Don't Despair, Repair! Mask 
- 1 oz/ 29 mL Alterna Caviar CC Cream 
- 1 oz/ 29 mL Earth's Nectar Mint Leaves Scalp Oil 
- 1 oz/ 29 mL Klorane Dry Shampoo with Oat Milk 
- 1 oz/ 29 mL Bumble & bumble. Surf Foam Spray Blow Dry 
- 0.85 oz/ 25 mL Living Proof No Frizz Nourishing Oil

The Sephora Favorites Style, Treat & Repeat! Custom Hair Essentials On the Go Set is like the previous Sephora Favorites K-beauty skincare set and it looks like they're using the same bag, which is AWESOME because I love that bag! I bought the choose-your-own K-beauty skincare set when it was still available, so I can give you a closer look at the bag:

I'm "saving" this bag for when I go on vacation, so I haven't removed the protective sleeve from the tag yet (I'm weird like that). But I can tell you that it's a generously-sized bag:

As you can see, this holds my full-size Palmer's Cleansing Oil (review here) and my full-size PF Butter Bronzer (review here) with plenty of room to spare. I love bags with clear sides because I hate digging around trying to find things, plus who can resist rose gold anything?

Also, thanks to reader Sasha K. for the tip that there are new Bite Beauty value sets (links below)!

Also, just a reminder that there are lots of other new Sephora Favorites sets HERE, and tons of new Holiday 2016 sets HERE.

*IF YOU USE CODE CURATED to get the Juliette Has a Gun sample, this is just a quick note to let you know that it is quite generous. I received this freebie recently so I took a quick pic. This sample even comes with a fancy box, and a lid on the spray nozzle. I put a standard size "deluxe sample" spray vial in this pic, just for size reference to give you a better idea of how big this sample is!

And just a reminder (because you know I always have to say this in my Sephora posts), if you don't already have free shipping due to VIB Rouge 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.
