I really only buy beauty products once a year these days and it’s during – you guessed it – the Ulta Black Friday sales! This year, Ulta has some especially AMAZING deals! It’s the perfect time to stock up on old favorites/essentials, try out that new lipstick, or finally pick up that palette that’s been on your wish list for forever! I know navigating these huge sales can be a bit overwhelming so I’ve compiled a list that includes all of these things – products I absolutely love, things I’ve had my eye on for some time, and then some fun new stuff I’ve been wanting to try that I think all of you will enjoy! I hope you find this helpful! Happy shopping!!
- Hot Tools 1” 24K Gold Curling Iron $24 (regularly $50) – I LOVE my T3 curling wand, but I’m not going to lie, I still go back to my Hot Tools curling iron every now and then! For a more affordable option (especially at an incredible 50% off), you cannot go wrong!
- CHI Star Dust 1″ Digital Ceramic Hairstyling Iron $60 (regularly $100) – CHIs are hands down my favorite flat irons and they come in the prettiest designs!
- First Aid Beauty’s Ultra Repair Cream Pink Grapefruit $19 (regularly $52) – Talk about a steal! This limited edition ultra moisturizing cream is perfect for the cold and dry winter months and has an amazing light grapefruit scent!
- Ardell 12 Days of Wispies Advent Calendar $24 (regularly $40) – Such a great deal! You get 12 sets of Wispies lash styles (including their best selling lashes!) plus two adhesive glues so you can even gift some to a friend!
- It’s a 10 Miracle Leave-In Product $9.50 (regularly $19) – NOW is the time to stock up/try out this raved about product! Use it on wet or dry hair of all types, this stuff “repairs dry damaged hair, adds shine, smoothes & controls frizz, seals & protects hair color, detangles, prevents split ends, stops hair breakage, creates silkiness, enhances natural body, flat iron & thermal protector.” It truly does it all!
- Original Makeup Eraser in Chic Black $14 (regularly $20) – I was skeptical of these at first (could it really take off all my makeup with just water??) but they’ve won me over! If you’ve been wanting to give these a try, now’s a great time!
- Tula The Cult Classic Purifying Face Cleanser $15 (regularly $28) – This is what I use everyday in the morning, at night and in the shower! It removes impurities deep in your skin while still being gentle and leaves your skin clean, smooth, and glowing! It also has a light scent which I like (thought some may not). If you prefer a non-scented cleanser, It Cosmetics Confidence in a Cleanser Face Wash is a great option! There’s also the classic Philosophy Purity Made Simple One-Step Facial Cleanser!
- bareMinerals Prime Time Foundation Primer $13 (regularly $26) – I’ve tried lots of primers and this one is so underrated! It has a slightly lighter consistency which I like and does a nice job making your skin feel smooth and flawless, blurring pores and will help your makeup last longer. The only downside is it comes in a small pump container so getting all of the product out can be a challenge.
- Tarte Amazonian Clay Foundation SPF 15 $19.50 (regularly $39) – This is a fantastic full coverage. LONG lasting foundation with SPF 15!
- Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso $5.70 (regularly $9.50) – If you only ever try one Milani product, let it be this! Their baked blushes are so buildable, smooth, pigmented and have just the right amount of shimmer!
- Urban Decay Perversion Volumizing Mascara $10 (regularly $25) – Combine this with a primer, and it will give you so much length and volume!! It has a big brush which does a great job separating the lashes and avoiding clumps and is a very deep black color which I also love. Another fantastic mascara is Tarte’s Maneater which does a great job of lifting and curling while also giving length and volume!
- Urban Decay Naked Honey Eyeshadow Palette $24.50 (regularly $50) – I have four Naked palettes and think I’m going to have to make it five! The Honey palette featuring 12 golden neutral eye shadows that include “classic golds, warm ambers, and rich chocolate browns in shimmer, metallic or matte finishes” – sooo pretty!! The Naked Heat is with it’s burnt red eye shadows is also gorgeous.
- Anastasia Sun Dipped Glow Kit $20 (regularly $40) – Their glow kits are the best! Dust them on lightly for a subtle, natural glow or build them up for some intense luminosity! I like that the Sun Dipped palette can double for bronzer and highlighter but the Sugar Glow palette is also wonderful and might be a bit better for those with fair skin.
- MAC Lipsticks $15 (regularly $19-24)- My absolute favorite lipsticks! I have sooo many but my most used and loved are Ruby Woo (gorgeous classic matte red), Rebel (midtonal plum/oxblood), Creme Cup (light blue pink) and Blankety (soft pink beige). I’m planning on picking up Velvet Teddy (deep-tone beige) finally!
- Batiste Dry Shampoo $9-$15.50 BOGO – Essentially half off, this is a great time to stock up on dry shampoo! There are a bunch of fun scents and designs and most have two sizes you can choose from. My favorites are the Tropical Dry Shampoo which is a Coconut & Exotic scent and the Pretty & Delicate Rose Gold. For those who want to keep things a bit more simple, there’s the Clean & Classic Original.
- Soap & Glory 30% off – I wanted to keep this list at 15 items, but I had to give my Soap & Glory recs since I’ve tried sooo many of their products! My picks: The Righteous Butter, Clean On Me Creamy Shower Gel, and Hand Food. All have the cutest packaging and their signature amazing scent!
