Can I get a birthday gift at both Sephora and Sephora at Kohl’s?

No. Beauty Insider allows one birthday gift per year, not one at each store. Eligible members can redeem in their birthday month at Sephora or Sephora at Kohl’s without a store purchase. Sephora online requires $25 in merchandise; Kohl’s online has no minimum merchandise purchase. Selection depends on location and stock.

Sephora and Ulta offer birthday gifts to eligible rewards members, but how you collect them matters. In-store collection can avoid the online purchase requirement. Start with the comparison below, then check your account and local gift availability before traveling.

Sephora: choose your collection method

Beauty Insiders can select a birthday gift during their birthday month. Collecting at a Sephora store does not require a purchase. Redeeming at Sephora online requires at least $25 in merchandise. Sephora says the minimum does not apply at Sephora at Kohl's or on kohls.com. Check the available selection before choosing a trip or an order.

Ulta: get your account ready before the month starts

Add your birthday and opt into marketing messages before your birthday month. For a store visit, bring the birthday coupon from your email or the Ulta app. Online redemption requires a subtotal greater than $0 with at least one non-Marketplace product; shipping may add to the cost. Pickup orders also require a purchase. Stock and the selection can differ between stores and online.

Ulta birthday gift instructions and terms

Plan a beauty birthday trip that saves money

Choose stores near places you already plan to visit. Open your reward before leaving and ask the store whether a gift is in stock. Count transport, parking and required spending before calling something a saving. Buying an unwanted product just to unlock a gift can cost more than collecting the gift in person.

Separate a free gift from a discount

A gift with purchase, bonus shopping points and a discount code are different benefits. Before adding another beauty brand to your route, look for its own published terms and check the membership tier, spending requirement and expiration. We have removed the earlier broad list of unverified brand claims from this guide rather than presenting every email club as a confirmed birthday gift.

Save proof that helps the next person

After collecting a gift, you can share a photo and the store conditions on Birthday Hunter's social wall. Leave out receipts with personal information. A dated experience is useful evidence of that visit, but it does not guarantee stock or eligibility at another location.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get the Sephora birthday gift without buying anything?

Yes, eligible Beauty Insider members can collect it in a Sephora store without a purchase. Sephora online redemption requires a $25 merchandise purchase. Membership is still required.

Can I get both Sephora and Ulta birthday gifts?

You can qualify separately for both programs. Check each account, its birthday timing and the available gift before visiting.

Is the Ulta birthday gift free online?

The gift is free with a qualifying order. The order must have a subtotal above $0 and a non-Marketplace product, and shipping rates apply. Pickup also requires a purchase.

When do I need to set up Ulta to get the birthday gift?

Before the month of your birthday begins: add your birth date and opt in to marketing messages in your Ulta Beauty Rewards profile. You can redeem once, online or in store, while quantities last.

Does MAC give a free birthday gift?

Only on higher tiers. MAC Lover Rewards gives Bronze members double points, while Silver and Gold members also get a birthday gift. The exact gift varies, and an online purchase is required.

Do I need a Birthday Hunter account to use this guide?

No account is needed to browse. The retailer memberships and their eligibility rules are separate.

Before you go

Birthday offers change often. These listings are compiled from brands' own sign-up pages and other public sources, and describe what people have historically received. The business always has the final say: availability, terms, minimum purchase, and whether an offer is honored are set by the brand, and can differ by location or end without notice. Birthday Hunter is not the offer provider and is not affiliated with the brands listed. Check the brand's current terms before you go.
