Hey bestie, let’s talk about one of the BEST parts of getting older: the FREE STUFF.
That’s right—so many brands want to celebrate your birthday with you, and by “celebrate” I mean give you free doughnuts, beauty products, meals, and discounts.
It’s like the universe’s way of saying “thanks for not dying for another year.”
I’ve rounded up the best birthday freebies you can snag just by signing up for loyalty programs and apps. Just remember to sign up IN ADVANCE—some require a few weeks’ notice. Let’s get into it, bestie. 🎂✨
1. SEPHORA – Free Beauty Gift
Sephora does birthdays RIGHT.
When you join their free Beauty Insider program, you get to choose a birthday gift from an amazing lineup that changes throughout the year.
For this year, you can pick from viral favorite brands including Tower 28 Beauty (their SOS spray and lip oil), Dr. Dennis Gross (a skincare trio with their famous peel pads), Glossier (fragrance samples and Cloud Paint blush), and Dae (hair styling heroes).
Later in the year, they’re adding gifts from K18, Gisou, and innisfree . You can redeem in-store for free, or online with a $25 minimum purchase . VIB and Rouge members also get access to rotating online-exclusive gifts—first up is a Jo Malone London set .
✨ Tip: Sign up at least two weeks before your birthday to make sure you’re in the system!
2. ULTA BEAUTY – Free Gift + $10 Off
Ulta’s Ultamate Rewards program hooks it up with a triple threat: a FREE birthday gift, $10 off any purchase, AND double points on select products .
The 2026 birthday gift options include travel-size Olaplex No.7 Bonding Hair Oil, Peach & Lily Ginger Melt Oil Cleanser, Lancôme Curl Goddess Mascara, Fresh Soy Face Cleanser, and Milk Makeup Lip + Cheek Blush Stick . You just need to make a purchase of at least $1 (excluding UB Marketplace items) to redeem .

Coffee lovers, this one’s for you. Sign up for Starbucks Rewards and you’ll get a free drink OR food item of your choice on your birthday.
No minimum spend required—just flash your app in store.
The catch? It’s valid on your actual birthday only, so make sure you’re registered well in advance.
4. Krispy Kreme – Free Doughnut
Download the Krispy Kreme app and join their free loyalty scheme, and you’ll get a FREE doughnut from an array of delicious flavors on your birthday.
Can’t make it on the actual day? No problem—you can redeem anytime during your ENTIRE birthday month.
Plus, you get a free doughnut just for signing up, so that’s two for the price of none if you time it right. Note: this is valid in standalone stores only, not in Tesco concessions.
