Ulta's Biggest Hits of 2025
Ulta’s Breakout Beauty Stars of 2025 Are All Worth Adding to Your Bag

Welcome to Retailer Must-Haves, a series where we cover the most popular finds of the moment from a specific site—all of which are algorithm-approved, of course.
From bold eyeshadows to fake freckles, this year’s makeup trends are all about originality and individualism. Beauty lovers are getting more adventurous with color and technique, but they're also dialing back on heavy formulas. As celebrity makeup artist Daniel Martin puts it: “At the end of the day, they don't want to look like they’re wearing a lot of makeup.” Think bold liner without mascara, sculpted blush with bare skin, or lip liner with no lipstick. It’s all about intention, experimentation, and a less-is-more approach.
With that in mind, we rounded up Ulta’s best-sellers of the year (so far) so that you can find something new that fits your vibe. From skin-enhancing staples to viral makeup must-haves, these are the top-rated picks flying off shelves and earning rave reviews from shoppers just like you.
