I’m a Beauty Editor—Here’s What I’m Shopping During Ulta’s 21 Days of Beauty Sale
Prepare to stock up on Fenty, Kiehl’s, Stila, and more for 50 percent off.
If you’ve been contemplating a makeup bag overhaul or a skincare revamp, I have *really* good news: Ulta’s 21 Days of Beauty Sale is in full swing, which means there’s quite literally no better time to shop. If you’re unfamiliar with the bi-annual promotion, allow me to give you a crash course. All month, Ulta, being the giving retailer that they are, surprised shoppers with 50 percent off (!!!) their best sellers. There’s a catch, though. The sale moves quickly—products only go and stay on sale for 24 hours. It’s a never-ending rotation of five star beauty buys, but planning ahead is key.
To help streamline your shopping journey, I’ve done the hard work for you. I’ve scanned the bargains, investigated the products, and selected the deals you won’t want to miss. I've rounded up the best products to shop this weekend. FYI: Full prices are listed below, but each product will be 50 percent off on their assigned day.)

If you’re dealing with red, angry acne or are simply searching for something that’s going to calm your skin down, I strongly urge you to press the “add to cart” button on this discounted moisturizer. It’s packed with green tea, which provides a multitude of benefits. Not only is it going to create a more even-toned complexion, but it’s also going to balance your oil production, which in turn, prevents pores from clogging up.
You don’t have to spend a lot on lipstick—some drugstore formulas will do the job. But, I promise you it’ll feel pretty freakin’ luxurious swiping this Estée Lauder bullet across your lips. The formula is silky smooth, the gold packaging is gorgeous, and pigment payoff is wild.

Ulta is going out with a bang. For the final day of the sale, they’ve made the very gracious decision to offer Tarte’s cult-favorite concealer at a 50 percent discount. Alix Earle, Shay Mitchell, Dove Cameron, and countless more celebs are major fans, so you know it lives up to the hype.
Intense black and bold mascaras have their time and place, but this specific Lancôme mascara happens to be my personal favorite for day to day wear. It’s a lighter black, defines without clumping, and is ideal for lower lashes.
