The best deals to shop this week during Ulta’s Big Holiday Beauty Sale
NBC Select associate social media editor Caitlin Cusack is a fan of Shark’s FlexStyle and says it cuts her styling time in half. The blow dryer brush comes with five attachments, including two interchangeable auto-wrap curlers, an oval brush, a paddle brush and a styling concentrator. It also consistently measures the heat output to help avoid heat damage, according to the brand.
Use this sugar scrub to exfoliate your entire body in the shower. It has six hydrating oils, including Moroccan, argan and rosehip oils, plus a warm, floral scent, according to the brand.
Multiple NBC Select editors are fans of Cosrx, which is best known for its hydrating and collagen-boosting snail mucin products. This set comes with some of the brand’s bestsellers, including an essence, serum, face cream and eye cream.
These are my go-to makeup sponges to help apply my makeup evenly. What I like most is that one side of the sponge has a flat edge, so it’s great for blending in creases and corners on my face. You get two sponges in this set.
This palette comes with blush, highlighter and bronzer. It’s available in two shades: one for light and medium skin tones, and another for medium and dark skin tones. Having everything in one compact palette makes it great for travel, too.
The Hempz Original Body Moisturizer is lightweight and absorbs quickly, according to the brand. It has hemp seed oil, shea butter and ginger root extract to hydrate and restore your skin barrier.
