Pamper Mom with Beauty Gifts from Sephora this Mother's Day! + Sephora Prize Pack #Giveaway

Monday, May 8, 2017

Thank you to Sephora for providing me with product in exchange for my review. All thoughts shared are my own.

What do moms really want for Mother's Day? Most will probably say that they don't need gifts, they just want to spend the day with their family. While that's true for me, as well, it's always nice to be shown special appreciation, and I've never been known to turn down a nice gift. One of the things that I don't spend a lot of money on or typically spoil myself with is makeup, skin care, or beauty products. I usually wait for a holiday or special occasion to roll around, and request needed or highly desired beauty items as gifts. While beauty products can be expensive, it's nice to know that you can make up a lovely gift for mom from Sephora without breaking the bank or sacrificing quality.

Sephora is not only a favorite store of mine (I love to just go in there and play with different products and discover new looks), it's a favorite brand. For a long time, I was unaware that Sephora had their own extensive product line. It's pretty impressive, too! They have their own line of makeup, brushes, skincare, and accessories, like travel bags.
