The Weekly Drugstore Makeup Sales (8/21 - 8/27)




If you spot the Wet n Wild Fall 2016 collection at Rite Aid, CVS, or Walgreens this week, now is the time for a haul since all three retailers are running killer sales (see details below). Also, at CVS this week all Milani lipsticks, lip glosses and lip liners are $2.99 each. Oh, and all Physicians Formula eye, lip, concealer and foundations are BOGOFREE this week at Rite Aid.


5x Points on all Tarte purchases: Now through 8/27, members get 5x points on all Tarte purchases. To see if you have this offer available to you, sign in to your Ulta account and go to your "My Rewards" tab to activate. If you do not see it there, you can try calling Ulta customer service and asking if they will give you this offer (some readers have had luck with that, while some have not). This is NOT a Platinum-only offer. It is for select members but I do not know how Ulta decides who gets it and who doesn't.

    2. Possibly 10x points for Ulta Platinum members, wow. Just a hint -- it's never too early to do a little Christmas shopping (lotion, fun stocking stuffers, and so on). 10x points would add up FAST!

    3. Hi G. I was just looking in my target add for this week, they are having a $5 mascara sale on select mascaras.

    4. Today I got a 10.00 coupon off 40.00 of LORAC from ULTA. Not sure I'm going to use it. They also sent me a 15.00 Egift card when I emailed customer service about not getting the clinique freebie in store. They sent me a "form" letter about not getting something in my order. I wonder if they even read the emails. I have a ton of points, which I was saving for the new UD naked palette whenever that comes out. I also love the Tartlette in bloom and Tartlete all matte when I've tried them in store. Crap, what should I do?????

      1. Definitely use some of those points for the Tartlette In Bloom. That's the only palette that I consistently use and get compliments almost every time I wear it. I'm ordering a backup as soon as I have some extra dosh.

    5. I tried ordering the MK gift set and it comes up out of stock (as of this afternoon). Ulta wouldn't let me complete my order without removing it from my shopping cart.

    6. Where can I buy wet n wild brushes beside their website?

      1. Dollar Tree has some of the WNW eye brushes for 1$there is the angles, blending, concealer, and a shader think the large? Can't remember and some stores have more variety than others. But mine has four different eye brushes lately. Like almost two wks apart still in stock and restocked. I have a smaller store and only one. But some find them easier than others. It can be hit or miss with DT. But if mine had them think there is a good chance others do too. Depends on how many customers traffic they have in the store. A lot of ppl have found them. Good luck. No face brushes. Just basic eye.

      ReplyDelete
    9. But the 10x points is only available on specific products/brands listed at ulta.com/platinum10x.

    11. It is 5x's and 10x's for platinum. I activated it and went shopping $50 worth and it is only giving me 62pts. So I'm not sure what's going on.... I am platinum as well.. Any ideals??

      ReplyDelete
    12. The offer for ULTA is up!! 5x points on all purchases and then 10x points on purchases of specific products located at http://www.ulta.com/platinum10x

    15. I went online shopping at CVS to pick up some of the Milani sales and some mua brushes. Right now, if u purchase 3+ items, you can use code 'SAVE123' to get an ADDITIONAL 30% off (even sale prices)....I got 2 mua crease brushes, the newish Milani foundation, the Milani earthy elements eye palette, and 7 Milani lipsticks for $36.34!! (Free ship with $35+ order)

      ReplyDelete
    16. Just a heads up that you can get an extra 30% off those Milani lipsticks and Wet n Wild cosmetics when you order on the CVS website and use the code SAVE123 (30% off 3 or more items) plus free shipping on purchases over $35. Not sure if it will work for everyone else but it's worth a try!

    17. 25% off all regular priced beauty and personal care products at Walgreens with the promo code: GLOWOUT

      ReplyDelete
    18. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the limited edition Fall WnW display anywhere in the Dallas area. :-( I did pick up some Spring LE items that were still out and a few of the new permanent line items that I haven't tried yet.
