Brand-name beauty products are typically a splurge for most of us — but for the next few weeks, buzz-worthy beauty is within reach. The Ulta 21 Days of Beauty sale kicks off on Aug. 30, 2024, and it includes a slew of 50 percent off deals on ethical brands like Osea , Olaplex , Briogeo , Half Magic , and Supergoop — and that's just for starters.
If you shopped Ulta's semi-annual sale back in March, then you know it's kind of a big deal. This time around, my face lit up when I saw how many vegan, cruelty-free products are marked down. Some of my personal favorite makeup, skincare, and haircare picks are represented, along with Ulta shoppers' most raved-about items.
Part of a healthy beauty regimen is replenishing your stash with fresh items on the regular, and these plant-based products are ripe for the picking. Stock up on day cream, night cream, shampoo, sunscreen, foundation, and even a new fragrance to shake things up. The Ulta 21 Days of Beauty sale ends Sept. 19, with new products on sale each day (plus early access deals and Ulta membership perks).
Editor's picks from Ulta's 21 Days of Beauty sale:
Dig into our favorite 14 deals below. But take note that each is on sale for one day only, so mark your calendar!
Tarte Tartelette XL Tubing Mascara
One of my biggest beauty pet peeves is smudged mascara. That's why I made the switch to tubing mascara, and Tarte's Tartelette line is one of my go-tos. Score its XL Tubing Mascara for half price and enjoy plump, lengthy lashes that come off easily with warm water — no rubbing necessary.
Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen Body SPF 40 Invisible Sun Protection
I've been using Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen for years, as have a cult following of fans. This TikTok-famous, reef-safe mineral sunscreen is packed with fruit extracts and plant-based emollients, and is beloved by celebrities and makeup artists alike. The clear, scent-free gel has a non-greasy, satisfying, silk-like finish.
Olaplex isn't often on sale, but when it is, you pounce. The Original No. 3 Hair Perfector is the OG of its iconic hair-repairing product line, and you'll always find it in my beauty bag. It's an at-home treatment designed to reduce the signs breakage of damage by literally repairing the bonds of the hair shaft, resulting in shinier, bouncier locks.
Another product I can personally vouch for is Briogeo Scalp Revival, a detoxifying charcoal-infused shampoo that has helped my hair grow long and strong by keeping my scalp exfoliated and follicles clear. Ulta has the line's MegaStrength + Dandruff Relief formula on sale for 50 percent off. It has all the ingredients I love, plus salicylic and lactic acids to curb scalp flaking.
Pick up these 10 additional brand-name picks while you're at it. Everything below is is 50 percent off!
about-face THE PERFORMER Skin-Focused Foundation
In recent years, the line between makeup and skincare has been blurring in the best possible ways. THE PERFORMER Skin-Focused Foundation by Halsey's brand about-face is a great example. The vegan formulation uses blue agave, wintergreen, chlorella, and more natural ingredients to moisturize while providing buildable coverage in 45 skin tone options.
Collagen Dream by Osea does everything a superior night cream should do: provide nutrients, deeply moisturize, fight signs of aging, and protect the skin barrier from moisture loss while you sleep. And it does all that with plant-based ingredients like organic wild lavender, vegan collagen, squalane, and bio retinol.
Peach & Lily is a pioneer in wholesome Korean skincare , and its fan-favorite Matcha Pudding Antioxidant Cream is on special at Ulta's semi-annual sale. The anti aging, firming, and brightening day cream is Leaping Bunny certified and infused with vegan goodies like cape lilac, an anti-inflammatory, and, of course, matcha for its antioxidant super powers.
Products that help thinning hair are in constant demand, so when one has 8,500 five-star reviews and an overall 4.6 star rating, we pay attention.

If you love ethical beauty products, look no further than Half Magic. The makeup brand's bold, glittery colors and finishes, inspired by the edgy looks used on the HBO show Euphoria (its Emmy-nominated makeup artist is the founder), are exemplified in Chromaddiction Shimmer Eye Paint + Eyeliner . Score the smudge-proof eye makeup in eight ethereal colors.
