Sephora Sale - Must Have Minis

If there is a full size product in my line up, chances are its because I tried a mini version first. One of my favorite things about Sephora is the extensive selection of mini products they offer and here are a few reasons why.

• I love frequently trying new products so committing to a full size version won't happen for me until I am really sold. Minis allow me to mix and match until I find the right product combination I can commit to. 
• I can see what works for me before investing. Especially during pregnancy my skin was temperamental. I relied on minis to test out how a product would effect my skin before I purchased the full size. 
• They allow me to add more expensive products into my routine. I want a little of the luxury without the price tag. Having some minis of more expensive products allow me to incorporate them into my routine when they will be put to best use (special occasions, dealing with a serious breakout, etc.).

Also remember that your products expire! You can see how long their shelf life is right on the bottle. If you want to have a treatment on hand for just the summer months or to deal with occasional breakouts, buying a full size version might not make sense. By time you get around to using the whole thing it could be well past the optimum timeframe. 

My rule: When in doubt, go for a mini version! Below are my favorite skincare and haircare minis that you can grab during the Sephora sale this year!
