Sephora and Ulta Are Both Having Major Sales RN—12 Beauty Products I'd Buy From Each
You might think that, as a beauty editor, I have all the skincare, hair, and makeup products I could ever need. While I do have the honor of testing a lot of new products, I'm no stranger to Sephora and Ulta. In fact, heading out to pick up a coffee and walk the hallowed halls of one of the aforementioned beauty retailers is one of my most treasured hobbies. There's nothing better than ambling around the aisles until you find something that speaks to you. New fragrance? Sure. High-tech skincare device? Yep. Nourishing hair mask? Done.
The only thing that elevates the experience is when one of them is having a sale. When both are having a sale, well, that's next-level. And that's what's happening right now. Here are the details: Ulta's Beauty Spring Haul event is happening now through April 20 with daily deals of up to 50% off. Sephora's Savings Event is also happening right now through April 15. To put it simply, my bank account isn't safe. Keep scrolling to see the 12 beauty products I'm buying from both Sephora and Ulta!
(Editor's note: Sephora sale pricing reflects Rouge member access.)
Sephora
Anastasia Beverly Hills is one of the top beauty brands to turn to for all things eyebrows, and this brow gel is no exception. The flexible gel never feels stiff or looks flaky. Plus, the medium-hold formula keeps my brow hairs brushed up all day long, which is just how I like them.
I've been trying to incorporate dry brushing into my wellness routine. I simply use the brush in long, upward strokes on my arms and legs to exfoliate my skin and boost circulation. It feels nice and invigorating, and it takes five minutes or less.
In the spring and summer, I veer away from heavier foundation formulas and opt for lightweight, hydrating ones. This year, I have my eye on this formula from Caliray. It promises to blur imperfections and neutralize the appearance of redness, which is just what my skin needs.
A bold, red lip is always in season. For a velvety look, I'll always reach for this formula from Armani Beauty. It's matte, but it's what I call a "modern matte" formula because it's so hydrating and creamy. And the color payoff is exceptional.
With summer on the way, I'm investing in a firming body lotion, like this one from First Aid Beauty. Over time, it visibly improves tone and texture thanks to ingredients like peptides and caffeine. It's the perfect warm-weather skincare prep.
This do-it-all hair product offers heat protection, smoothness, and shine all in one spritz. I'm snagging a bottle for all my upcoming at-home blowouts. Apparently, it mimics the results of keratin treatments for super-sleek hair. I'm sold.
Ulta
La Roche-Posay is one of my all-time favorite skincare brands, and this cleanser is one of the reasons. It contains Thermal Spring Water to soothe sensitivity, Ceramide-3 to help fortify the skin barrier, and glycerin to hydrate. Every time I use it, my skin feels soft, calm, and clean—never dry, tight, or irritated.
This serum is next on my to-try list because it targets everything from lines and wrinkles to dryness and enlarged pores. It's packed with Pepticology, hyaluronic acid, and other skin-strengthening ingredients. The best part? It's dermatologist approved and safe for sensitive skin.
When it comes to mascara, I appreciate a one-and-done formula, and this is it. It's volumizing, lengthening, curling, and defining. With just a couple of swipes, I get full, fanned-out lashes. Plus, you just can't beat $3 for a mascara!
Here's another product I've used on and off for a few years. I love that the formula is hydrating, soothing, and firming thanks to ingredients like hyaluronic acid and Thermal Spring Water. It also feels incredibly lightweight on the skin, making it perfect for summer.
Another product I'm snagging while it's on sale, this long-wearing brow pencil is designed to quickly and precisely fill in sparse areas. The shades are on point and nearly undetectable from your actual brow hairs.
This product is somewhere between a leave-in conditioner, a shine serum, and a heat protectant. Use it before styling for soft, silky strands and split-end protection. (My bleached hair needs that now more than ever.)
