Simply:
“Justified” - At the time of salvation, God cleanses you and you’re pure just as if you had never sinned.
“Sanctified” - Set apart by God for a special purpose.

"Pure" might need some context here...
In that the sin is still there after justification - but just "covered" by imputed righteousness - and the justified appear in a different nature as if the sin does not exist any longer.
At least that is what I learned Luther taught about that.
