If you're like me, you have more makeup and skincare products than you can count. Not only do I have multiple makeup bags (one for each type of product—duh), but I also had to purchase extra shelving just to store all my goodies. Applying my skincare and makeup is one of the highlights of my morning—a time in which I can focus on myself and feel present with my body. Plus, it's just plain fun.

But this hobby means that I plow through my products at a rate unheard of, so I often find myself needing to restock my favorite lipsticks, nail polishes, moisturizers, and eyeshadow pigments. I've been holding out for a while, clinging to the last few dregs of my can't-live-without pieces, waiting for a sales event like the one Ulta is hosting now: The Fall Haul Event, which lasts until September 30.

This sales event takes up to 40 percent off countless fan-favorite options, from makeup to skincare to beauty accessories. It's the perfect opportunity to replace your tried-and-true, or perhaps to try something new. Below, my favorite picks from the sale, spanning every category.
