The Best Beauty Products From Holiday Sales For DIY Bridal Makeup

Replace Rudolph’s red nose with a classic red lip!

Holiday beauty sales are the perfect time to stock up on all the makeup products for your big day. From Ulta Beauty’s Holiday Beauty Blitz sale to Sephora’s Sephorathon, there are tons of products that are typically expensive on sale for a little more than half the price this month. This is especially important if you plan on doing your makeup yourself for your wedding. Take advantage of all these holiday sales to build up your makeup collection, since you won’t have access to a makeup artist’s products. Pro-tip: try to buy holiday gift sets where you can, they usually include a set of three or more products and are priced lower than the individually priced items. Keep scrolling for six of our beauty sale picks that will make for a classic, romantic bridal beauty look!

Fenty Beauty, $30

You can never go wrong with Fenty Beauty, especially when it comes to their lip gloss! This Fenty Glow trio set from Sephora includes a cream blush, highlighter, and lip gloss bomb. All of these products come in a nice, rosy shade which is perfect for giving your face some color without going too pink. You can always layer the lip gloss with a light pink or nude lipstick for a more defined look.

Tarte, $30

It’s all in the eyes brides! Your eye makeup will define the rest of your bridal makeup from what color lipstick you wear to the shade of blush you choose. This Warm Winter Wishes Eye Set from Tarte Cosmetics includes three staple products - an eyeshadow palette, eyeliner, and mascara. The eyeshadow palette contains rosy, pink eyeshadows that will allow you to keep it simple, add some sparkle, or go for a darker eye. Use the gel eyeliner and mascara for some added definition.

Benefit Cosmetics, $20

Raise an eyebrow to your big day! Natural brows are having a moment in the beauty world, but it’s always good to have a pencil or gel on hand to fill in any empty spots or to keep your eyebrow hairs in place. This Benefit eyes, brows, and face holiday set from Ulta Beauty includes eyebrow gel, a face primer, and mascara. Products that will all help keep your makeup in place from morning to night on your wedding day, which is always a plus!

IT Cosmetics, $40

At first glance, this price might seem a little steep, but for all the beauty goodies you get, it’s worth it! This IT Cosmetics face set from Sephora includes a CC cream with SPF, micellar cleanser, anti-aging moisturizer, makeup primer, AND under-eye brightening cream. CC creams are perfect for wedding day foundation because they enhance your natural skin and aren’t too heavy so it will be easier to keep intact. Plus the other skincare products are great to help prep your skin before makeup and cleanse it afterward.

Sephora Collection, $10

Great makeup always starts with good skin! If your skin is dry or experiencing issues, then you can expect to have a less than ideal makeup application. Luckily, this Skincare Surprise Set from Sephora is inexpensive AND includes two face masks, a nose strip, and a lip scrub. You can be wedding-ready in just three steps for clean, moisturized skin that will have your makeup gliding right on.

BH Cosmetics, $21

Doing your makeup yourself might be a little difficult if you don’t have brushes to work with! This 12-brush set from Ulta Beauty includes both face and eye brushes. You can easily switch from creating a subtle smokey eye to applying foundation because these brushes will work with liquid, cream, and powder makeup products. If that wasn’t enough it comes with a brush holder as well, to easily store or transport your brushes from your venue or home.
