Shop the Special Offers section, including Buy More Save More (BOGO), Gift With Purchase and Sale merchandise plus, grab a current Ulta coupon.
March
21 Days of Beauty Event
As the shining star of Ulta sales, the semiannual 21 Days of Beauty Event happens twice a year. It’s a sale that overflows with cosmetics, skin and hair care products to keep you smiling until the next one rolls around again. Although the date changes every year, you can set your clock to the approximate timing, give or take a day or two.
Ulta loves its customers so much they don’t make us wait until the day of to get a preview of the merch. They let us see the entire line of the 21 Days of Beauty goodies so we can make sure we’re properly prepared for the spending, spending and, yep — more spending.
April
Spring Haul Event
The Spring Haul Event in April comes on the heels of Ulta’s 21 Days of Beauty. It offers customers major discounts and a plethora of daily deals to boot on prestige cosmetics which, as you know, only happens a few times a year. It’s an excellent way to get all the necessities (and some not-so-much necessities) in between Ulta “Haul Events.”
May
Gorgeous Hair Event
The Gorgeous Hair Event comes around twice a year with the first kicking off in May. Ulta spaced these semiannual events perfectly to let you stock up on your last beauty haul. During the event, you’ll save 50% on all your hair gear so your locks look the healthiest for the rest of the spring season and into the long summer months.
June
Jumbo Love Event
The Jumbo Love Sale, and it happens two times per year. This semiannual sale features up to 40% off the top hair care brands, including Biolage, Joico and Redken, to name a few. You might also hear it called the “Liter Sale” because of the oodles of savings on liter bottles of shampoo, conditioner and other products that show your hair the most “jumbo” love ever.
P.S. Don’t forget you can stack your coupons, so check out RetailMeNot for the latest ones to use at Ulta.
Summer Sale
The Summer Sale is Ulta’s way of getting you over the midsummer hump. It usually happens toward the end of June every year with savings of up to 50% on summer skin care, BOGO makeup, up to 40% on jumbo hair care, including drugstore brands and prestige products, and daily deals. In 2022, the Summer Sale starts June 26 and lasts through July 16.
July
Summer Sale (continues)
Ulta’s Summer Sale continues into mid-July with app-exclusive offers arriving daily.
Bonus Savings
This month, use the promo code SCORE10 for an extra 10% off your order when you buy online and pick up your purchase in store. It’s valid through the end of the month.
August
Forever Fabulous Sale
Like February, the month of August is another hiatus from Ulta’s major sales events. However, Ulta runs smaller promos that are as equally thrilling. For example, their Forever Fabulous Sale marks the end of summer and the beginning of fall beauty.
September
21 Days of Beauty
The second and final 21 Days of Beauty Sale arrives just in time for fall and typically coincides with Labor Day. The event is just as awesome as the one earlier in the year with 50% off Daily Steals and plenty of other discounts alongside them. So stock up beauty mavens!
Fall Haul Event
For three glorious weeks in September, Ulta’s Fall Haul Event offers an assortment of out-of-this-world Daily Beauty Steals. It’s another opportunity to restock your beauty essentials and think about the new fall trends. But it’s gearing you up for the upcoming holidays with enough looks to matching your many moods during the last three-ish months of the year.
October
Gorgeous Hair Event
The fall Gorgeous Hair Event starts toward the beginning of October. You’ll have different Daily Steals to snag on everything to help your hair live its best life and save 50% of the essentials.
November
Holiday Haul: Black Friday Sale
When Black Friday arrives in November, put your comfy shopping pants on, roll up your sleeves and get into deal-scoring mode. Ulta runs major doorbusters — mostly online now — for stocking stuffers, gift boxes filled with more cosmetics than you can ever use in a single lifetime and much more. It’s a great way to get a head-start on your gift list.
Holiday Haul: Cyber Monday Sale
Cyber Monday has been quite the conundrum lately because most Black Friday sales have been online anyway over the last two years. But Ulta attempts to differentiate Cyber Monday from Black Friday with a whole new slew of deals, while the old ones are still available. What! That means, if you broke nothing by darting to an electronic device over Black Friday, then all isn’t lost. You can still score plenty of superb deals on Cyber Monday.
December
Holiday Beauty Blitz
After the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales are in the history books, the countdown to Christmas arrives in December with Ulta’s annual 25-day Holiday Beauty Blitz. New deals and dazzling gift ideas up to 50% off arrive each week so you can check your beloved peeps off your gift-buying list in a snap.
Jumbo Love Event
As the last major sale of the year, the semiannual Jumbo Love (Liter) event starts in December and again features up to 40% off the top hair care brands to help your hair make it through the heat and rays of summer.
And then the whole year starts over again with Ulta’s Love Your Skin Event, picking up where it left off at the beginning of the year.
