Top Saint Paul, MN Beauty Giveaways With No Purchase Necessary: Safe Entry Guide
Find nearby Sephora and Ulta birthday gifts plus Macy's October beauty-prize entry, with no-purchase limits explained.
Saint Paul-area readers have three current beauty-related opportunities with no purchase necessary: Sephora and Ulta birthday gifts, plus Macy's Golden Confetti prize promotion. A no-purchase offer can mean an eligible member receives a gift without buying, or that an entrant can seek a prize without buying; a sweepstakes prize is not assured. The clearest local routes are stores in Woodbury and Roseville, while Macy's promotion has an October 31, 2026 end date.

Sephora birthday gifts near Saint Paul
Sephora Beauty Insider is a free loyalty program that provides U.S. members a birthday beauty gift in Sephora and Sephora at Kohl's stores. The 2026 gifts include sets from Tower 28, Dr.
Dennis Gross, Glossier, K18, Gisou, and innisfree, with selections subject to availability. Sephora's 2026 birthday-gift announcement For an in-person option, Sephora lists its Woodbury store at 9020 Hudson Road. A qualifying member can redeem there without a minimum merchandise purchase.
Sephora's Woodbury store page Online redemption works differently. Sephora requires a $25 merchandise purchase for a birthday-gift redemption on Sephora.com, so store pickup is not the same as an in-store no-purchase redemption.
Ulta birthday gifts in the Twin Cities area
Ulta Beauty Rewards members can receive one birthday gift during their birthday month while supplies last. Ulta says no purchase is necessary when redeeming the birthday gift in store. Ulta Beauty Rewards terms and conditions Enrollment is free for U.S.
residents age 13 or older. To qualify for the birthday gift, members need a birthday on the account and a valid email address or app; the birthday coupon is limited to one per member. Ulta's Minnesota store directory includes Roseville and Woodbury, giving Saint Paul readers two nearby in-store options.
Macy's Golden Confetti beauty-prize chance
Macy's Golden Confetti is a no-purchase promotion rather than a birthday reward. Its active promotion ends October 31, 2026, and Macy's says neither a purchase nor a QR-code scan is required. October prizes include Rabanne fragrance, a Dyson Supersonic travel hair dryer, and a Carolina Herrera fragrance set.
These are prizes to enter for, not items every entrant receives. Macy's Golden Confetti promotion page
A safe way to enter
Use the brand's stated account, store, or promotion route. Keep your birthday details accurate for birthday offers, and look for the redemption or entry terms before making a trip. The Minnesota Attorney General advises that legitimate sweepstakes do not charge an entry fee or give purchasers better odds.
Minnesota Attorney General sweepstakes guidance
- Do not pay an entry fee.
