The Weekly Drugstore Makeup Sales 7/31 - 8/6 (Special Message for New Readers)




A special note for new readers: if this is your first time reading my weekly sale wrap-up, I post this information once a week on my blog (usually on Sundays but sometimes I'm late and it goes up on Monday). You can access this post at any time throughout the week by clicking the ESSENTIAL LINKS tab on the main menu bar at the top of this blog. From there you'll see a drop-down where you can click "Weekly Drugstore Sales".

I do my best to bring you what I perceive to be the hottest beauty deals of the week at Ulta, CVS, Rite Aid, and Walgreens. You will find here many highlights that I want to bring to your attention, but I always include links to each retailer's weekly ads so that you can view ALL sales for yourself. I've been writing these wrap-ups every week since 2009 and I have developed a sense for what appeals most to my readers when it comes to sales and deals. As such, I ask you to read through these listings carefully because I cover a lot of ground and I do not want you to miss out on a deal. This post isn't for skimmers--it's for hardcore beauty junkies! If you skim, you may miss. Thanks so much for taking the time to read this, and I hope this post helps you with planning out your beauty purchases!



ALL ULTA MEMBERS: receive 5x points on all bareMinerals purchases in-store and online now through 8/6 and 5x points on Ultra Chi Titanium purchases in-store and online now through  8/6. To check if you have these offers available, sign in to your Ulta account and to go your "My Rewards" tab. If you have the offers listed at the bottom of that page, you'll need to activate them before you make a purchase in order to get your points.

    9. If you go to the bite beauty instagram page there is a post before that deal went down saying that it was going to be available only that day, and once it sells out that was it. �� I could not grab the bold trio...

    10. I forgot which post this person replied to, but the code for free $15 on your first google express purchase is still valid. I don't know for how long though...for those who don't know you can buy makeup from ulta, target, bed bath and beyond, costco etc. from https://www.google.com/express/
