We all need a little R&R, and while the spa might seem like an obvious go-to, beauty makeovers are actually extremely relaxing. As a super thoughtful gift from one of my girlfriends, we had a glam girls day with Makeup Deluxe: Full-Face Makeovers at the Sephora Beauty Studio at Lincoln Park’s Sephora location. Each with our own chair and designated Beauty Advisor, we told what makeup looks we liked and what type of look we were going for. Brunch was on the agenda afterward, so we wanted fun day-time looks.
Per usual, my go-to besides neutrals is the color pink when it comes to makeup. Due to wearing my favorite dusty rose fuzzy sweater, I decided to go with a matching look. Using a variety of products handpicked throughout the Sephora store by our Beauty Advisors, our 60-minute full-face makeovers began. Nikki, my Beauty Advisor, narrated every item being added to my face, explaining what brand it was and the purpose for it’s use. This was very helpful as some of the items I had never used or seen before!
While it was great that my Beauty Advisor went through every item as it was being applied, it was of course a lot of items to remember. Luckily, all items used are scanned, including shades, and sent to your email post-session so you have a list of everything used to create your look. This was my favorite thing about the booking! So helpful. I was very thankful to have an easy clickable list to view later on. My favorite items used were Hourglass Caution Extreme Lash Mascara, Huda Beauty The New Nude Eyeshadow Palette, IT Cosmetics 3-in-1 Micellar Cleanser, and IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Eye Cream.

Makeup Used in Makeover
I absolutely loved getting a full-face makeover and can’t believe I hadn’t tried it out sooner! I discovered new beauty products and was able to try them on first hand for a test run. It’s the perfect relaxing, and fun, girls day activity or a great way to get your makeup done before a night out. If you want more of a quick fix, rather than a 60-minute full-face makeover, Sephora also offers 20 minute bookings for lips, eyes, eyebrows, and more. Highly recommend trying it out!
