The Tariffs Are Going to Make Sephora’s Savings Event a Great Success

I wasn’t sure how this year’s Sephora Spring 2025 Savings Event was going to go. We all the news, we all hear day in and day out how people aren’t spending, how inflated prices are, etc…etc…you’d think you’d see that trickle into brick and mortar stores but I can’t see I’ve seen that.

I went to Home Sense last night and I was convinced it was Christmas. It was literally out the door with people having packed carts. I just don’t see the whole “people are saving money” that the news keeps going on and on about. Restaurants are packed, stores seem to be thriving, and life is going on as normal.

As for the Sephora sale I keep seeing all these Tiktok posts about how much are spending. One girl, who didn’t have a huge following, proceeded to say it was her birthday and she’d be doing a $1000 haul because of that. Hey, I dunno her income situation and if she wants to treat herself that’s none of my business. However, I do think when the Sephora Savings Event rolls around they aren’t hurting for business. Somedays I think to myself, “gee the beauty industry must be hurting right now” but I see all these social media posts and it appears they’re thriving.

Of course, tariffs have been an ongoing debate the last several months and it finally seems to be happening. I do wonder how this will effect the Sephora Savings Event. Is everyone out there stocking up like mad demons before their favorite moisturizer goes from $30 to $60 bucks or people being even more reserved about spending.

I gotta say this might work out in Sephora’s favor. We’ll have to see what sells out! Who knows? Maybe this will be a bust for them! But I doubt it. The beauty is still spinning no matter how bad things are or how bad they get.

What do you think? Are the traffis going to make the Sephora Savings Event a great success or will makeup lovers be too scared to spend?

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    I had planned on picking up a blush and a perfume, but I’m not spending anything right now. I don’t know if we are heading into a recession, but I’m really only buying what I need right now.

      smart move! It’s hard to say what will happen at this point. Sigh. Things are not looking great!

    I don’t think people will be spending as much as they used to on cosmetics or other luxuries; another commenter mentioned buying only what they need. That behavior will allow people to save for other things. Many of my family members and coworkers have reevaluated their spending – they cut out Door Dash and Uber Eats and prepare and bring their lunch to work. It’s healthier, too!
    As for tariffs, I think it’s a good idea for commerce to be reciprocal. We open our markets to so many countries, they should do the same for our products too.
    P.S. – love your blog and the header image too!

      amen on healthier. I feel like we eat crappy (particularly me as my boyfriend is very disciplined and Mr Universe when it comes to his eating habits) when we doordash plus it’s very expensive with the fees involved. You can order a $40 meal and suddenly it’s $70 because of all the fees involved. You might as well and go and get it yourself. But you’re right, it is a lot healthier and a lot more inexpensive too! Aw thank you! I appreciate that! I really felt like I needed a refresh soon but I like the pink theme too much to part with it 😀
