Ulta has launched its early Black Friday sale.

The promotion runs through November 21. Customers can save up to 50 percent on select items from brands including Clinique, Medicube, and Tarte. The discount applies to makeup, skincare, and haircare products. The retailer notes that supplies may run out before the end date.

Specific products receive deep markdowns. Tarte sells a full-coverage concealer that lasts up to 16 hours. The item holds a 4.7-star average from over 37,880 reviews at Ulta. Clinique offers a cleansing balm that uses safflower seed oil to remove makeup. That product has a 4.6-star average from more than 44,660 reviews. A hydrating essence containing snail mucin and hyaluronic acid is also discounted. It carries a 4.7-star average from over 4,060 reviews.

Other brands see smaller but steady price drops. Clinique products are marked down by up to 25 percent. Morphe brushes see cuts of up to 30 percent. Tarte, Medicube, Skin1004, Mediheal, Cosrx, and Milani Cosmetics all offer discounts of up to 30 percent. These reductions cover a wide range of beauty tools and treatments.

The sale includes buy one get one deals. These offers allow shoppers to stock up on multiple units. The promotions target early holiday gift buyers. The discounts apply to bestsellers with high customer ratings. The store positions the event as a chance to secure winter essentials before peak demand arrives.

Ulta frames this as the start of the holiday shopping season. The retailer highlights the limited nature of the stock. Shoppers are urged to visit stores or the website promptly. The price cuts cover both popular skincare routines and cosmetic items. The event concludes on November 21.
