Between these annual Sephora Birthday Gift posts and my Sephora Savings Event Recommendation posts, I feel like I’ve been giving Sephora so much free publicity these past couple of years. But, if I’m being honest, this is one of my favorite posts to write! I have been obsessed with the free Sephora Birthday Gifts ever since I first started shopping at Sephora (which was a long, long time ago) and they have only gotten better with time. This year, I have four different birthday sets to show you because I finally became a VIB member so I was able to snag the VIB only gift for my birthday this year! I’m really moving up in the world. And so, if your birthday is coming up and you just can’t decide which birthday gift you want from Sephora, look no further. I’ve broken down each birthday set for you (and let you know which one is giving you the most value for free because I’m all about the bargains).

I feel like the Youth To The People Superfood Cleanser is one of the most talked about cleansers at Sephora and yet, I’ve never tried it. But this cleanser is hyped for all the right reasons. It’s a gel consistency that foams up nicely and helps to remove any makeup, sunscreen and oils while also leaving the skin soft and glowing thanks to the antioxidants in the kale, spinach and green tea extracts. The set also contains a very decently sized Superfood Air-Whip Moisture Cream that also uses the same power of antioxidants as the cleanser does. It provides ample hydration and helps to strengthen the moisture barrier, while still being lightweight and sitting nicely under makeup. The last item in the set is a little sachet of the Superberry Dream Mask. This is an overnight mask that contains vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants to lock in hydration while also visibly brightening the skin by the morning time!

The Charlotte Tilbury birthday set actually has the highest dollar value out of all the Sephora Birthday Sets this year, but it’s also the VIB exclusive gift. Coincidence? I think not. And for all you non-VIB’s out there, I hate to say it, but I think this might be my favorite set out of the four. It contains the Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray that may just be the best setting spray out there right now. It forms a flexible and breathable film across the skin to help the makeup stay in place. It honestly feels like a hairspray for your face, but it also contains Japanese Green Tea to support the skin’s moisture barrier to ensure it stays soft and hydrated. My makeup did not budge when I used this spray for an evening event! I’m impressed. The set also contains a Matte Revolution Lipstick in Pillow Talk which is Charlotte Tilbury’s most famous lipstick! It’s gorgeous everyday nude pink. I wish it wasn’t matte but oh well! And lastly there is a little sachet of the Magic Cream Moisturizer that contains hyaluronic acid to plump the look of the skin and diminish the look of wrinkles. I can’t say I noticed much from this one-time use sample but it was nice to try out!

I swear there’s a Moroccanoil Birthday set almost every year, but I ain’t mad at it. I’ve always loved Moroccanoil hair products and it’s so nice to have the lil’ minis for travel! This set contains both the Hydrating Shampoo and Hydrating Conditioner that are suitable for all hair types and textures. The duo is especially good at hydrating the hair, fighting any frizz while also adding shine to the hair! To compliment the shampoo and conditioner, the set also contains my favorite Moroccanoil Treatment Hair Oil. I have been using this oil on and off for over a decade now (proof here if you don’t believe me) and it’s just so good. It contains argan oil that is rich in vitamin E and antioxidants to help hydrate and nourish the hair, as well as Linseed Extract to help improve the health of hair. But we’re not done with the set yet! It also contains a little sachet (I’ve been really loving using this word in this post) of the Moroccanoil Hand Cream. I actually got the full-size of this hand cream for my mom last Christmas and she loves it (I think)! It comes in several different scents but this is their original scent that smells of Amber, Magnolia, and Woods. Think deep and musky with a warm sweetness. It has a nice non-greasy formula that intensely nourishes the hands, nails, and cuticles.

The last set is one that I was really excited for. I really like Kosas as a brand but had not tried the lip oil or brow gel prior to getting this birthday set. The Wet Lip Oil is a lovely lip product that has a glossy, smooth texture that isn’t stick in the slightest. It’s in the shade Unbuttoned which is a gorgeous warm blush shade that leans a little coral- almost like a terracotta. It’s very hydrating with the Hyaluronic Acid, peptides and Evening Primrose Oil in the formula. Plus, I’m just a sucker for mini lip products that don’t take up a ton of room in my bag. The set also contains the Kosas Air Brow. It’s a clear gel that fluffs, lifts and sets brows in place. But don’t expect this brow to have a super strong hold. It’s definitely provides a more natural and flexible hold. But it also helps helps your brow hair grow with ingredients like Panthenol Pro Vitamin B5, Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1, and Hyaluronic Acid. I guess it’s also worth mentioning that this set does have the lowest dollar value out of the four, but hey, $27 of makeup for free is nothing to scoff at!
