Ulta's 21 Days of Beauty is finally here, and I'm shopping these 10 best deals
It's time to replenish your skin care and makeup stock. Ulta's 21 Days of Beauty Event finally kicked off today, dropping daily deals on beauty galore. It's no measly discount either: We're talking a whopping 50% off. For the first time, select savings last all week long rather than expiring at the end of every day, giving ample time to load up your cart. To give you a jump on this week's offerings, I rounded up the 10 best beauty deals at Ulta, including brands like Tarte, Olaplex, Supergoop! and more. Just note that the monthlong event ends on March 27, so shop while you can. Olaplex No.8 Bond Intense Moisture Damage Repair Hair Mask Treatment Hairstylists swear by this overnight beauty product for treating damaged hair. The brand is best known for its bond-building formulas, helping repair hair while adding moisture and shine as you snooze. Supergoop! Every. Single. Face. Watery Lotion SPF 50 Supergoop! SPF has gathered quite a cult following. This milky formula was formulated for all skin types and tones to lend a refreshing texture that dries into a non-greasy finish. Add it to your skin care routine for as low as $17. First Aid Beauty KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub With 10% AHA Fresh Peach Since rocketing to viral fame, the KP Bump eraser has played a crucial role in my shave routine. Its combo of glycolic and lactic acids gently exfoliates my sensitive skin, reducing the appearance of strawberry skin. I find that it extends my shave too. BaBylissPRO Professional High-Speed Dual Ionic Dryer Slashed by $100 off, this hair dryer hails from the reliable, tried-and-true hair dryer brand, BaByliss. Its ionic tech has impressed in past models, minimizing the appearance of frizz with less heat. Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes Platinum Volumizing Mascara I've yet to find the perfect mascara, but this one is certainly a winning favor. It amps up lash volume in just a few swipes. I also appreciate that it comes in fun, chrome packaging that's easy to spot in makeup bags. Tula 24-7 Moisture Hydrating Day and Night Cream Dry skin can find a hydrating savior with Tula's everyday moisturizer. Its formula of peptides, squalane and hyaluronic acid work in tandem to draw moisture to your skin barrier. While it's usually a spendy buy of nearly $60, we can't resist this discount. Kitsch Satin Pillowcase Tame bedhead and fall into a luxurious sleep with this $10 satin pillowcase from Kitsch. I've influenced many people to snag the brand's heatless curlers because of their gentle material on hair, and I can only imagine its pillowcases uphold that rep. Benefit Cosmetics Gimme Brow+ Tinted Volumizing Eyebrow Gel One of the first eyebrow beauty products I ever used to tame and style my hair heralded from Benefit Cosmetics. The Gimme Brow is a classic that delivers a natural tint time after time. Nars Afterglow Liquid Blush One of our favorite blush for mature skin just dropped in price during Ulta's sale. Add a natural-looking flush to cheeks, choosing from nine versatile pigments like browns, plums, reds and pinks. Though, you can't go wrong with the fan-favorite shade Orgasm. Anastasia Beverly Hills Beauty Balm Serum Boosted Skin Tint This beauty balm has revolutionized BB creams with a design that's the first of its kind. It's made with the skin care and makeup ingredients you'd typically find in a skin tint — but in stick form. It comes in 16 shades that blend out into a natural finish. Every spring and fall, I mark my calendar for Ulta's 21 Days of Beauty event because it brings more than 250 noteworthy markdowns on recognizable beauty brands and Ulta employee favorites. The savings are scattered across every category too, so you can revamp your skin care, hair care and makeup routines. It's also one of the best sales from the retailer. For example, Ulta's last sale, Wellness Week, brought only 30% off select skin care items. Armed with years of experience testing and reviewing beauty products, plus expertise covering sales on said picks, our deals editor Jacqueline Saguin curated a list of only the best makeup, skin care, hair care and fragrance deals for your wallet, mostly including those products other Underscored editors buy themselves.

Save 50% off on skin care, hair care and more during Ulta's spring sale happening now
As a beauty reporter and frequent Ulta shopper, I look forward to Ulta's 21 Days of Beauty Event, which happens twice a year. Right now, you can save 50% across all beauty categories, including skin care, hair care and tools. The three-week long spring sale will end on March 27. But you'll need to act quickly: These deals rotate daily, so you only have 24 hours to purchase your favorite items once they go live. To help you navigate which deals are happening each day, I compiled the first week of the sale into one cohesive list and highlighted expert- and editor-approved items. Since timing is everything with this sale, I recommend taking advantage of deals as soon as possible before they expire or sell out. SKIP AHEAD March 7 sales | March 8 sales | March 9 sales | March 10 sales | March 11 sales | March 12 sales | March 13 sales | The best weekly sales Olaplex No. 8 Bond Intense Moisture Hair Mask Regardless of your hair type and texture, this multitasking hair mask moisturizes your hair, reduces frizz and adds shine, according to the brand. It also combats heat and chemical damage using its patented technology to repair broken bonds, according to Olaplex. It has a 4.5-star average rating from over 2,400 reviews at Ulta. Kitsch Satin Pillowcase 'I've gifted Kitsch pillowcases to most of my family members and friends because it's just that good,' says NBC Select updates editor Mili Godio. 'It's super soft and doesn't pull or tug at my hair or skin, which I appreciate since my skin is sensitive and rosacea-prone. I also love that it feels cool, which is a plus since I'm generally a hot sleeper.' The NBC Select Bed & Bath Award winner is available in standard and king sizing. Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream SPF 30 Reviewers say this moisturizer with SPF is the perfect solution for those who forget to wear sunscreen since it doesn't require an additional step in your morning skin care routine. Aside from its 2-in-1 convenience, many reviewers say this moisturizer leaves their skin more hydrated, plump and firm. This gel moisturizer has a 4.6-star average rating from over 900 reviews at Ulta. Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm Makeup Remover Suitable for all skin types, this balm (which turns into an oil as you massage it into your skin) helps gently remove makeup and grime without leaving a greasy residue, experts told us in our guide to the best cleansing balms. It's also safe for sensitive skin and eyes, according to the brand. Cosrx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence This Cosrx essence is a year-round favorite of NBC Select associate SEO reporter Ashley Morris because it's lightweight and gives her long-lasting hydration. 'It softens my skin and gives a glow without being too oily. It helps to soothe any irritation or redness from acne flare-ups,' she says. 'I also like to use it in the summer or on vacations to give my skin an extra moisture boost on hotter, drier days.' Beekman 1802 Milk Rx Advanced Better Aging Cream Using ingredients like milk proteins, peptides and ceramides, this moisturizer hydrates, firms and maintains a healthy skin barrier, according to the brand. The rich cream is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, because it uses a retinol alternative (peptides) to mimic the benefits of retinol without irritation, according to Beekman 1802. It has a 4.6-star average rating from over 100 reviews at Ulta. First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Pads One of the easiest and best ways to exfoliate my extremely sensitive skin is by swiping these pads on my face and neck. The exfoliating pads come soaked in alpha hydroxy acids (chemical exfoliants that improve tone and texture) and soothing ingredients like aloe and cucumber water to counteract any irritation, according to the brand. After using these once a week, I can tell my skin is much smoother, especially around the tip of my nose where my pores tend to clog. Seen Hair Care Seen makes some of our favorite hair care items and all of the brand's products are currently on sale at Ulta, including this serum. Use two to five drops of the serum on wet or dry hair to reduce frizz and breakage, plus you can use it as a heat protectant before styling, according to the brand. The serum is suitable for all skin, scalp and hair types because it has a noncomedogenic formula (meaning it won't clog pores). It also has the National Eczema Association's Seal of Acceptance. Kiehl's Creme de Corps Whipped Body Butter Kiehl's Creme de Corps body care line is one of my favorites because it leaves my skin soft and smooth thanks to its trio of ingredients: honey, shea butter and sweet almond oil. Thicker than traditional body lotions, this body butter has a rich consistency that instantly absorbs into my skin, so it never feels heavy or greasy. And because it is very thick, a little goes a long way, so it's worth the higher price point. Virtue Volumizing and Thickening This shampoo, which has a 4.7-star average rating from over 900 reviews at Ulta, cleanses your scalp and hair without weighing it down. It combines antioxidants, protein and lipids to thicken each hair strand for added volume and body, according to the brand. While many reviewers love how it makes their hair appear fuller, they also say the citrus, floral fragrance (with notes of white pear and lemon) smells great on their hair. Peach & Lily Wild Dew Treatment Essence This water-like essence, which has the NEA Seal of Acceptance, uses niacinamide, allantoin and hyaluronic acid to firm, soothe and hydrate the skin, according to the brand. The essence can improve skin tone and texture, plus helps other skin care products absorb easily into your skin, which is why you'll want to apply this directly after cleansing, according to Peach & Lily. It has a 4.7-star average rating from over 1,300 reviews at Ulta. Korres Santorini Grape Velvet Skin Drink Reviewers of all skin types say this facial oil is worth the splurge: Not only is it extremely hydrating, but it also softens and brightens your skin, according to the brand. The oil, which has a 4.5-star average rating from over 500 reviews at Ulta, absorbs quickly into the skin, so you aren't left with an uncomfortable, oily feeling after applying it, according to Korres. Reviewers also love that it smooths out their skin and it makes their skin look slightly blurred after using. Unite Hair 7Seconds Collection This detangling spray, suitable for all hair types, improves your hair's manageability, repairs breakage and protects it from thermal and UV damage, according to the brand. Reviewers say brushing their hair is a lot easier and less painful when they use this spray because it helps their brush glide through tangles and knots, resulting in less breakage and shedding. This spray has a 4.9-star average rating from over 700 reviews at Ulta. Peter Thomas Roth 24K Gold Pure Luxury Eye Patches These Peter Thomas Roth under-eye patches come in a travel-friendly tub packaging, so they're easy to take with you and apply on the go. These patches are saturated in hyaluronic acid, collagen and caffeine to reduce fine lines and puffiness while hydrating and firming the skin, according to the brand. One tub comes with 30 pairs and a spatula, so you can carefully and cleanly separate them from one another. During the 21-day sale, you can also shop exclusive weekly sales. These sales will last an entire week before the next round of deals gets released at the start of week two. How long is Ulta's 21 Days of Beauty Event? The spring sale is three weeks long. It begins on March 7 and ends on March 27. Can you shop for other deals during Ulta's 21 Days of Beauty Event? Yes. For the first time, Ulta will offer additional sales throughout the three weeks. At the start of each week, the retailer will release a new batch of Weekly Beauty Steals, which will also be 50% off. During the 21-day event, the deals will rotate daily and last for one day only. They will end at 11:59 p.m. CT and switch to the next day's offer at midnight CT. The Weekly Beauty Steals will last an entire week, so you have more time to decide whether or not you want to purchase an item. Is the Ulta 21 Days of Beauty Event in-store or online? The sale is available in-store, online and on the app. Some deals are online only. Do you have to be an Ulta Beauty Rewards member to shop? No. If you are an Ulta Beauty Rewards member, you can earn points for every dollar you spend. If you have an Ulta Beauty Rewards Credit Card, you can earn two points for every dollar during the sale. These points can be redeemed on future purchases and beauty services. How often does Ulta host its 21 Days of Beauty Event? Ulta hosts the 21 Days of Beauty Event twice yearly — once in March and the other in September. I am an associate reporter for NBC Select, who frequently covers beauty and wellness sales, including the most recent 21 Days of Beauty Event, Sephora's Savings Event and Amazon Prime Day. For this story, I reviewed Ulta's offerings for the first week of the sale and highlighted products and brands that are NBC Select staff favorites, come recommended by experts or are highly rated.
