We love a bit of instant gratification. Sephora knows that. For today only, the beauty retailer is offering free same-day delivery just in time to celebrate the summer solstice. On Tuesday, June 21, beauty insiders can use the code BEAUTYNOW to get their orders shipped within hours. To be sure you get your shipment today, you should place your order by 4 p.m. local time. Orders placed after will be delivered tomorrow.

That means all your sunscreens, summer fragrances, eyeliners, and lightweight moisturizers and concealers will be shipped right to your doorstep. The clock is ticking, and shopping can get overwhelming. To keep you on track, we’ve rounded up some of our favorites products to shop for summer and wear year round.

The Cult-Fave Foundation

This holy grail, barely-there foundation is worth the hype. Its oil-free formula is lightweight and has a natural finish so it feels and looks like you’re not wearing anything.

The Repairing Shampoo

One to add to your cart because we know you’ve probably run out already. Save yourself the Sephora run and add this strengthening and repairing shampoo for damaged hair to your order. The cult fave nourishes all hair types.

The Sunscreen for Everyone

Now’s not the time to skimp on sunscreen, so grab this cast-free one that fits all skin types and tones. The clear sunscreen feels lightweight and dries with a mostly matte, almost primerlike finish perfect for layering under makeup.

The Eye Cream That Works

This has all those five-star reviews for a reason. The eye cream helps brighten, hydrate, and depuff dark under-eye circles. The tinted cream is suitable for all skin types and addresses a number of concerns including dryness and fine lines.

The Cream That Smells Like Summer

This super-moisturizing cream smells like summer and tropical vacations. With notes of vanilla and salted caramel and a blend of oils and butters, this cream keeps your skin soft and smelling amazing. We recommend layering with the brand’s fragrance mists.

The Mascara Made for Drama

Of course the queen of editorial makeup would give us a mascara that layers on the drama. The pigmented mascara features a dense brush for layering on clump-free volume and length.

The Sun-Free Glow

Bronze up the safe way with this hydrating gel that’s perfect for adding a golden glow to the face and body. The odorless and streak-free gel tans instantly and it is easy to use.
