ULTA 21 DAYS OF BEAUTY 2019 | WEEK 2 MUST-BUYS

It's time for Week 2 of Ulta's 21 Days of Beauty! If you missed last week's post, I shared my favorite beauty and skincare from Week 1 of the sale. For those who are new, here's a recap of the sale, dates, etc.!

If you're not familiar, Ulta runs a sale event a few times a year with tons of amazing high-end beauty products for up to 50% off! We're talking ahhhhmazing products that are things you actually want. The fun part is there are a few different items on sale each day of the event and the sale price only lasts for that day. A lot of times things sell out fast so you have to jump on them either in store or online. I took a peek at the sale and there are so many products this year that I love and am planning to pick up! I feel like this might be the best one they've done yet so I'm sharing a quick post with my favorite items from the second week of the sale and what I want to buy.

21 DAYS OF BEAUTY SALE DATES
MARCH 17th - APRIL 6th


I love sharing my picks with you all. Should you click on or make a purchase through the links in this post, I’ll earn some money to keep on shopping! Pretty cool, huh? :)


Today's post is all about Week 2 of the sale! Be sure to check back next Sunday on March 31st for Week 3's deals. You can view my picks from Week 1 in this blog post. To make things more organized and easy to follow, everything is in order in the collage above from Day 1-Day 7. I'm also listing them in the same order here!


DAY 1

IT Cosmetics Complexion Powder Brush - IT Cosmetics makes the best face brushes so I was stoked to see a few of them included in the sale! Normally I don't recommend spending a ton of money on a powder brush but I actually have one just like this one from IT Cosmetics and there is a noticeable difference in the quality. The handles are more sturdy and I never experience bristle fall-out like I do with more affordable brands. Since this brush is 50% off and under $20, to me it's a no-brainer and worth buying in the sale!
Regular Price $36, on sale $18

Tarteist PRO Glow & Blush Palette - I tend to wear blushes more in the warmer weather so I love palettes that have a mix of blush, bronzer and highlighter. This one from Tarte is so cute and has four blushes, a bronzer and a highlighter. I also love the magnetic-style packaging!
Regular $45, on sale $22.50

DAY 2 

MAC Prep + Prime Fix+ Scents - MAC Fix Plus is one of those must-have essentials. It's nice to have as a primer, setting spray or mist for shadows, etc. These scented ones are full-sized and apart of the sale! My favorite scent is the "Coconut."
Regular $27, on sale $13.50


Lancome La Base Pro Oil Free Primer - I love this primer so if you're looking for a new one, pick this up! It helps to smooth out your skin and makes your makeup look better. I also love that this one comes with a pump unlike most primers.
Regular $42, on sale $21

DAY 3

Ofra NikkieTutorials Highlighting Trio - In last week's post I mentioned that I love trying out new brands when they're on sale. I've never used anything from Ofra before, however people always rave about their lip and face products! This highlighting palette caught my eye and is so pretty! I like the mix of cool and warm tones and the price is amazing.
Regular $29, on sale $14.50 

DAY 4

Smashbox Photo Finish Primerizer - I have always loved this primer from Smashbox so I'm really curious about their Photo Finish Primerizer! I remember wanting to try it when it first came out but haven't yet. I like that it's both a primer + moisturizer in one. I always struggle with dryness so I love anything that adds hydration and helps my foundation to go on better!
Regular $42.00, on sale $21

Kopari Coconut Rose Toner - If you're into clean products with better ingredients, Kopari is a great brand. This lippie from them is my favorite so I need to try out the Coconut Rose Toner that's on sale!. I'm not usually big on rose scents but I love coconut so I'm curious to see how this smells. This product is suppose to hydrate and help even skin tone.
Regular $24, on sale $12

Beauty Bakerie HD Flour Setting Powder - Beauty Bakerie has some of the best branding with their products. Everything is so cute and very well packaged/named! This is another brand I've never tried so I'm curious to pick up this HD Flour Setting Powder that's on sale! It comes in 3 shades and has a matte finish.
Regular $24, on sale $12

Persona Cali Glow Highlighter - These Persona highlighters look STUNNING! They also have bomb reviews on Ulta so I expect them to be amazing. There are two shades, I love "Zuma" for my skin tone.
Regular $24, on sale $12

DAY 5

Buxom Full-On Pluming Lip Creams - I'm obsessed with these!!! Hands down the best lip gloss formula ever! If you've never tried, "White Russian" is a must-buy. It's the perfect color that everyone needs. There are a total of 19 shades to choose from and a great selection of neutrals and brights. I love "Mudslide," "Pink Champagne," and "Dolly."
Regular $21, on sale $10.50

DAY 6

Too Faced Born This Way Ethereal Loose Setting Powder - Too Faced is one of my favorite eyeshadow brands but I haven't used many of their face products. I thought this powder looked like a good one to try since it's 50% off! It comes in 3 shades.
Regular $33.00, on sale $16.50

Velour Lashes - Lashes are another item I don't love to spend a ton of money on. I think you can find great, affordable options at the drugstore. With the sale price these lashes are only a few dollars more than drugstore ones which makes them worth trying to me! They're faux-mink and come in three styles.
Regular $26, on sale $13

DAY 7

Mario Badescu Drying Lotion - This product has been raved about for YEARS. You know it's good since people are STILL talking about it... ;) This drying lotion is a spot treatment for acne that "shrinks spot, on the spot." I'm all about quick ways to get rid of blemishes so for $9 I'm buying. It comes in both a glass bottle or a travel-friendly plastic bottle.
Regular $17, on sale $8.50

Dermablend Setting Powder - This powder is so so good. I like that it's formulated without a lot of harmful ingredients but does a great job. You also get a ton of product which will last for forever! I love the translucent shade but there is also an illuminating banana powder too.
Regular $29, on sale $14.50 

Stila Stay All Day Liner - Alright, guys. THIS IS IT. If you pick up ONE thing from the sale this week, get this liner. I've talked before about how I'm a picky little b*tch when it comes to liquid liner. I've tried a ton and this one is incredible. I've purchased several of these in the past and it's super easy to use, very black and stays on. I'm honestly surprised they put this in the sale 50% off... that makes it only $11! ELEVEN DOLLARS! What??! I'm buying a new one this week!
Regular $22, on sale $11
