So I wasn't planning of getting anything from Sephora, but the semi-annual VIB sale came around and I didn't want my code to go to waste, so I decided to pick up a few random items. I would've gotten more stuff, but Memebox is shutting down their rewards program (Boo!!!) so all rewards codes and points needed to be used by the end of April, so I made a huge purchase from there (haul forthcoming) and didn't want to spend too much more money so I just stuck to a few random items from Sephora...although I wish I had gotten more. Anywho, here's what I got...
AMOREPACIFIC Color Control Cushion Compact Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ - Light/Medium Yellow
AMOREPACIFIC Color Control Cushion Compact Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ - Light/Medium Yellow
A multifunctional cushion that delivers the perfect blend of skin care and coverage, with weightless buildable coverage and effortless perfection.
Blur the line between skin care and makeup. This versatile Color Control Cushion Compact perfects the complexion with weightless, buildable coverage, while potent Asian botanicals deeply hydrate, protect from free-radical damage, and brighten skin for a naturally flawless finish. Powerful broad-spectrum SPF 50+ defends against daily exposure to UVA and UVB rays without the typical white cast left from high sun protection content in other foundations. Housed in a convenient compact, this cushion is excellent for everyday use. Apply as the last step in your skin care regimen or on its own for instant perfection that is never messy or cakey.
HOW TO USE
Using puff applicator, press down lightly onto pre-saturated cushion sponge to capture product. For maximum coverage, pat evenly over face. For light coverage, smooth over face using sweeping motion. Use in the morning and reapply regularly throughout the day if desired.
*Close both levels of the compact securely, as the pre-saturated sponge will dry out if left open.

Hourglass Ambient® Lighting Powder - Diffused Light
A collection of six universally-flattering finishing powders that recreate the most flattering light.
Create the perfect illumination for your face with Hourglass Ambient® Lighting Powder. Infused with the innovative Photoluminescent Technology, each finishing powder captures, diffuses, and softens the look of the skin. The micron-size, color-correcting particles refract light and create transparent coverage, filtering out harsh light and refining the appearance of the skin.
Ambient® Lighting Powder comes in six shades
Ethereal Light: An opalescent sheer, cool white powder that mimics a moonlit glow, even in broad daylight.
Diffused Light: A soft, warm, pale yellow powder that conceals redness and gives skin clarity like a soft ray of morning light.
Dim Light: A neutral peach beige powder that blurs imperfections and highlights a radiant complexion with the perfect balance of warm and cool tones.
Mood Light: A soft, sheer lavender pink powder that mimics the softest, most forgiving light and brightens the complexion.
Luminous Light: A champagne pearl powder that creates a soft, incandescent candlelit glow—day or night.
Radiant Light: A sun-kissed golden beige that enhances the overall complexion with believable, subtle warmth, and also extends a summer glow.
HOW TO USE
Use Ambient Powder Brush to dust Ambient Lighting Powder all over the face.
Powders can be combined and layered to create a sensational, multi-dimensional glow: -First, apply Dim Light all over the face. -Follow with Mood Light just on the cheeks, as if it were a blush. -Finish off with Luminous Light as a highlighter and apply it to the high points of the face.
Precautions: Ambient Lighting Powder is fragile. Please handle with care.
Formulated Without: Parabens
WHY I GOT IT
I have been wanting to try the Hourglass Ambient lighting powders, so I finally got one in Diffused Light. I would have liked to get them all, but I stuck to just the one for now. I was torn on which one to get, but since I'm asian and have yellow undertones I decided to try Diffused Light first.

WHY I GOT IT
I really wanted the illuminating one in the pink tube, but it was sold out so I settled for this one...but a lot of people seem to like this CC Cream, so I wanted to give a go as well. Plus, it claims to be full coverage and color correcting, so I'm really excited to give to a go.

Sephora Collection Lift Off Lash Comb
A folding lash comb to define and separate lashes.
This chic comb folds into its own handle for easy storage and hygiene. Fold it out and it works to define and separate eyebrows and lashes. Fold it up and it’s ready to take anywhere. Metal bristles create a better, more refined look.
WHY I GOT IT
I needed a nice lash comb. The one I have is plastic and old and no good.
