The annual Sephora Savings Event, which kicks off on Friday, April 10 and runs until Monday April 20, is my Super Bowl. As a loyal Rouge member, it’s the only time of year when I can get 20 percent off everything. That means it’s the best time to stock up on duplicates of my favorite products and test out a bunch of newness I haven’t been able to get my hands on quite yet. This year, I’m hyper-focused on curating the best skincare routine for sensitive skin.
I run really red, am easily irritated, and my skin is generally very sensitive, so I have to be very careful with creams and serums. A simpler routine works better—I focus on hydration, strengthening my skin barrier, and using anti-inflammatory ingredients to control redness, such as azelaic acid, green tea, and squalane. To shop my go-to skincare routine for sensitive skin (and a few products I’m eyeing), scroll ahead, and get ready to shop the 2026 Sephora Savings Event sale like a beauty editor.
