Fort Wayne shoppers can redeem two in-store birthday gifts and enter an October beauty sweepstakes with no purchase.
Fort Wayne readers have three no-purchase-necessary beauty options right now: in-store birthday gifts at Sephora at Kohl's and Ulta Beauty, plus a national PEOPLE sweepstakes open to Indiana residents. No purchase necessary means the sponsor cannot require you to buy something to redeem or enter, although membership, age, date, and in-store rules still apply. Sephora and Ulta offer a birthday benefit tied to free rewards membership, while PEOPLE offers a chance to win a prize bundle.
The birthday benefits are redeemable locally in Fort Wayne, and the sweepstakes runs through October 16, 2026. Redeeming in store matters for keeping entry truly free.

Sephora birthday gift in Fort Wayne
Sephora Beauty Insider members can redeem one free birthday gift per year during their birthday month, with no purchase required for in-store redemption at Sephora or Sephora at Kohl's, according to Sephora Beauty Insider Terms and Conditions. Membership is the account limit beside the benefit. Fort Wayne shoppers can use that benefit locally because Kohl's lists Sephora shops inside its Fort Wayne North, Fort Wayne East, Apple Glen, and Coliseum Boulevard stores, with in-store shopping and beauty consultations.
Ask for the birthday gift at the beauty counter during your birthday month. Online redemption is different. Sephora requires about a $25 merchandise purchase for online birthday redemption, so Fort Wayne entrants seeking truly no-purchase entry should redeem in store and read the rewards terms first.
Ulta birthday gift in Fort Wayne
Ulta Beauty Rewards members receive a birthday-month coupon for a beauty gift that requires no purchase when redeemed in store, valid during the birthday month while supplies last and limited to one per member, according to Ulta Beauty Rewards Terms and Conditions. Join Rewards before your birthday month and check the coupon dates. Fort Wayne residents are affected locally because Ulta operates stores in Fort Wayne including Jefferson Pointe at 4110 W Jefferson Blvd and Northcrest at 705 E Coliseum Blvd, according to Ulta Beauty store and birthday information.
Those locations are where the in-store free birthday redemption applies. Ulta online or pickup redemption requires a merchandise purchase plus possible shipping. For no-purchase entry, redeem in store, bring the coupon or account information, and expect stock to vary by store.
PEOPLE Beauty Awards Bundle chance
A third active no-purchase beauty chance is PEOPLE's Beauty Awards Bundle sweepstakes, which states NO PURCHASE NECESSARY and is open to legal residents of the 50 U.S. states and D.C. age 18 or older, running Sept.
16-Oct. 16, 2026, according to PEOPLE Beauty Awards entry page. This is a chance to win, not a promised gift.
Entry is time-sensitive because the period ends October 16, 2026. Read the entry page and official rules for entry limits, prize details, and winner selection. Do not confuse this format with the store birthday benefits.
Birthday gifts go to eligible members during the birthday month, while a sweepstakes selects winners by chance after entry closes.
How do you enter safely?
Use only the sponsor's page or posted rules for dates, eligibility, and redemption steps. Confirm whether redemption must be in store, what account or coupon you need, and whether supplies are limited. Watch for warning signs described by the Federal Trade Commission in FTC consumer advice on fake prizes.
Real sweepstakes are free and winning is by chance.
- Never pay fees, taxes, shipping, or other charges to claim a prize
- Never pay to improve your odds of winning
- Never share bank, wire-transfer, gift-card, or password details to enter
- Stop and check the sponsor's own page when a message pressures quick payment
