Ulta 21 Days of Beauty Day 18 Deals are Live (Tips and What I'm Buying)

Affiliate Links

The Ulta 21 Days of Beauty Day 18 deals are live, so here's your nightly reminder, including some new tips. Be sure to read through this entire post (I don't want you to miss anything)!

TIPS (AND WHAT I'M BUYING): Just a reminder that Tarte Maracuja Oil Hot Buy is back in stock here (thanks to readers @_indra_j, Laura, and Gatorsmama for that tip!). Also, I've been waiting for this day because I REALLY want those Cargo Swimmables Blushes (Bali and Los Cabos, to be exact; link below). I have heard that the staying power of these blushes is incredible (I have loved the regular Cargo blushes for over a decade now and those have great staying power) and I have heard that these blushes are used on the set of Dancing with the Stars (which probably speaks to their sweat-proof-ness). I love that these Swimmables have a beautiful iridescence to them with no glitter (see swatches of all three shades here). Plus, if you buy two you get that freebie (details below).

PLATINUM MEMBERS: all Platinum members receive free shipping with any Beauty Steal purchase. This offer is valid for the entire duration of the event (now through April 8).
