The Weekly Drugstore Makeup Sales (2/26 - 3/3)

For a listing of the beauty sales at Ulta, Target and Kmart this week, please click here.

CVS shoppers: Two great things going on this week at CVS. First, the Wet n Wild Spoiled nail polishes are 2/$3! Click here and here if you need some ideas. Second, spend $10 on any Physicians Formula cosmetics and you'll get $7 back in Extra Bucks (limit 1 so choose wisely). I LOVE it when they run this promotion, and since so many of the new Physicians Formula products come with rebates or instant coupons on the packaging, you can REALLY make this deal work for you and possibly turn your purchase into a money-maker. The CVS Cash Card promotion is still going on (spend $30 on participating items and you'll receive a Cash Card worth $10 to spend as you like at CVS). Participating beauty-related items are marked below. And remember that you do NOT have to purchase $30 worth of products all at once--they will accrue on your receipt.

Rite Aid shoppers: Three awesome deals this week! All Revlon cosmetics are 40% off AND if you spend $20 you get $6 +UP. EcoTools brushes are BOGOFREE (again!). And if that weren't enough,  if you buy 2 Sinful Colors polishes you get $2+UP, which breaks down to $0.99 per polish after +UP Rewards (CQ, Petites, etc. are also included in this deal, but since those are slightly higher they won't come out to $0.99 after rewards, of course). By the way, I haven't really mentioned CQ or Petites on the blog in a while, but last year around this time I swatched a bunch of shades, if you'd like some ideas. Some coupons you can pair with the Revlon and EcoTools sales: there are Video Values coupons still available for $2 off Revlon ColorStay Liquid Lipstick and $3 off Revlon Age Defying Foundation, but HURRY if you want those because they're going away soon (each month they post new coupons so these will be going away this week). And if you did not sign up for the $1 off coupon from EcoTools the last time Rite Aid ran this sale, you can do it here (they'll email you the coupon within 24 hours). Use that coupon and bring your total down even more on some new brushes or sets! And remember that, through March 17th, whenever you make a qualifying purchase (which I will clearly mark below), these purchases will add up on your receipts and when you hit $100, you'll get $20 back in +UP Rewards (they'll automatically print out on your receipt). 

Walgreens shoppers: UPDATE: Thanks to Facebook follower Teresa for pointing out that Rimmel is not BOGO1/2OFF like I originally listed it below, it's 50% off! If you print out the $1 off Rimmel coupon from Red Plum, this week would be an ideal time to use it! All Neutrogena cosmetics are 40% off, Pond's towelettes are BOGOFREE and all SOHO makeup brushes are $3 off! Remember also that the March Coupon Booklet has good L'Oreal coupons that you can use with the BOGO1/2OFF sale on L'Oreal this week.  Also, here are a few odd ducks worth mentioning: Burt's Bees Honey Natural Throat Drops are FREE after RR ($1.99 with $1.99 Register Rewards). And Baby Magic Patty Cake Dustless Baby Powder is on sale for $6 with a $6 mail-in rebate (FREE).  I don't know much about this new product, but after looking at it here, it seems like it could be ideal for those of us who do at-home waxing. It's a pain sometimes to use traditional baby powder on my brows before I wax them (baby powder makes the hairs easier for the wax to grab) because I always make a mess at the bathroom sink. With these, all you'd have to do is give your brows a swipe!  Or you could even use these as a quick on-the-go dry shampoo (keep in your purse to run across your bangs when traveling). Or even to use on your feet if your shoes are slippery during the summertime. I'm always intrigued by new products so I thought it was worth mentioning. You get 10 cotton rounds per compact so, if you want to try them, get them while they're FREE (after rebate). Oh! And when you go to the Walgreens rebate page to get your rebate, you can elect to get your money back via a Walgreens gift card. If you do this, you get an extra 10% back, so then this deal becomes a money-maker (spend $6 get $6.60 back!). A huge thanks to Wild For Wags for that tip!

FUTURE WALGREENS SALE ALERT: Remember that printable Sally Hansen polish coupon I linked to last week? As of the time of this post it's still available, and Wild For Wags has a great deal on how to get a polish and a treatment for just $1 a piece starting 3/11 using that coupon. Click here for all the details (there's a link to the coupon in her post in case you need it).
