Sephora’s massive sale ends tomorrow. I tried $2,083 worth of beauty products — here’s what’s worth buying (and what you should skip)

I may be the only person on the planet who isn’t adding Sol de Janeiro’s Brazilian Bum Bum cream to my Sephora cart, but hear me out. I really liked it, I did! I like the smell; allegedly, it’s firming (though I didn’t notice anything), and it’s always fun to try a viral product. 

However, in my opinion, it’s just a body lotion. I don’t know if I go through body lotion at abnormal speeds or if others are just chronically dry, but at the rate I go through a tub, I would be spending $65 every two weeks to keep this in my bathroom. All this to say: if you have a lot of money, it’s a great body cream. If you don’t, the Bum Bum cream won’t change your life. Try Aveeno instead.

VERDICT: It’s not worth it.
