Sephora’s annual birthday gifts are a highly anticipated treat for beauty lovers, and the 2024 offerings definitely live up to the hype! It feels like each year, Sephora just keeps getting more generous with their complimentary birthday sets. For years, these birthday freebies have been a major draw for shoppers like myself, and the selection available this year is particularly exciting because as a VIB member, I got access to an exclusive gift! This year, there are four fantastic birthday gift sets to choose from, catering to different beauty preferences. If you’re a Sephora enthusiast with an upcoming birthday and struggling to decide which gift to snag, you’ve come to the right place. I’ve carefully reviewed each Sephora Birthday Gift 2024 set, breaking down the contents and even pointing out which one offers the best value, because who doesn’t love getting the most for free?

Birthday Gift #1: Youth To The People Cleanse & Hydrate Skincare Birthday Set
Total Value: $37.31 CAD
The Youth To The People Superfood Cleanser is a product that consistently generates buzz in the beauty community, yet surprisingly, I hadn’t had the chance to try it until now. However, the hype is absolutely justified. This cleanser has a lovely gel texture that transforms into a satisfying foam. It effectively removes makeup, sunscreen, and excess oil, while leaving your skin feeling soft and radiant, thanks to the power of antioxidants from kale, spinach, and green tea extracts. This Sephora Birthday Gift 2024 set also includes a generous sample size of the Superfood Air-Whip Moisture Cream. This moisturizer harnesses the same antioxidant-rich formula as the cleanser to provide excellent hydration and strengthen your skin’s moisture barrier. Despite its moisturizing capabilities, it maintains a lightweight feel and layers seamlessly under makeup. To complete the set, there’s a single-use sachet of the Superberry Dream Mask. This overnight mask is packed with vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants. It works to deeply hydrate your skin while you sleep and visibly brighten your complexion by morning.

Birthday Gift #2: Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Look Birthday Set
Total Value: $37.79 CAD
The Charlotte Tilbury Sephora Birthday Gift 2024 actually boasts the highest monetary value of all the sets this year, and it’s exclusively available to VIB members. Coincidence? I think not! For those who aren’t VIB members, I must admit, this might be my personal favorite out of the four options. This set features the iconic Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray, which may very well be the best setting spray currently on the market. It creates a flexible, breathable film on your skin that locks your makeup in place all day and night. It almost feels like hairspray for your face, but it’s also infused with Japanese Green Tea to support your skin’s moisture barrier, keeping it soft and hydrated. My makeup truly did not budge when I used this spray for a recent evening event – I was thoroughly impressed! Adding to the allure, the set includes a Matte Revolution Lipstick in Pillow Talk, Charlotte Tilbury’s universally flattering and most celebrated lipstick shade! It’s a beautiful everyday nude pink. While I personally prefer a non-matte finish, the shade is undeniably gorgeous. Lastly, there is a sample sachet of the Magic Cream Moisturizer. This cream contains hyaluronic acid to plump the skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. While I didn’t notice dramatic results from a single sample use, it was a luxurious treat to try.

Birthday Gift #3: Moroccanoil Ultimate Hydration Birthday Set
Total Value: $34.80 CAD
It seems like a Moroccanoil Birthday set is a recurring favorite from Sephora, and I’m certainly not complaining! I’ve always been a fan of Moroccanoil hair products, and these mini sizes are perfect for travel. This Sephora Birthday Gift 2024 includes both the Hydrating Shampoo and Hydrating Conditioner, suitable for all hair types and textures. This duo is particularly effective at hydrating dry hair, taming frizz, and boosting shine. Complementing the shampoo and conditioner is my all-time favorite Moroccanoil Treatment Hair Oil. I’ve been using this hair oil on and off for over a decade now, and it remains a staple in my routine. It’s enriched with argan oil, packed with vitamin E and antioxidants to hydrate and nourish hair, and linseed extract to promote overall hair health. But the set doesn’t stop there! It also includes a sachet of Moroccanoil Hand Cream. I actually gifted the full-size version of this hand cream to my mom last Christmas, and she loves it! It comes in various scents, but this set features their signature original scent, a warm and inviting blend of Amber, Magnolia, and Woods. It has a lovely non-greasy formula that deeply nourishes hands, nails, and cuticles.

Birthday Gift #4: Kosas Lip & Brow Birthday Set
Total Value: $27.64 CAD
This final Sephora Birthday Gift 2024 set was one I was particularly excited to try. I appreciate Kosas as a brand but hadn’t previously experienced their lip oil or brow gel before receiving this set. The Wet Lip Oil Gloss is a delightful lip product with a glossy, smooth, and non-sticky texture. It comes in the shade Unbuttoned, a beautiful warm blush shade with coral terracotta undertones. It’s wonderfully hydrating, thanks to hyaluronic acid, peptides, and evening primrose oil in the formula. Plus, I’m always drawn to mini lip products that are perfect for on-the-go touch-ups. The set also includes the Kosas Air Brow Clear Lifting and Volumizing Eyebrow Gel. It’s a clear gel that effectively fluffs, lifts, and sets brows in place, offering a more natural and flexible hold rather than a super strong, stiff finish. It also contains beneficial ingredients like Panthenol Pro Vitamin B5, Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1, and Hyaluronic Acid to support brow hair growth. It’s worth noting that this set has the lowest dollar value among the four, but let’s be honest, $27 worth of free makeup is still a fantastic birthday perk!
