Let's keep this thread on topic!

 

Ulta points refresher (because yes, it is that complicated):

 

Spoiler

Item #1 - $53.50

Item #3 - $108.50 (and is eligible for a certain item/brand 5x multiplier)

* There is also a 5x all purchase multiplier and you are platinum so you get 1.25x

Total Spent - $162

Base Points Earned - 162

Platinum .25x Earned - 41 (162 * .25 = 40.5, and rounding up)

5x All Purchases Earned - 648 (it ends up being 4x because you don't count the base points)

5x Item/Brand Earned - 434

Total Points Earned - 1285

Spoiler

Please add product id numbers and sku numbers so people can find items on ulta.  

Just to clarify, there is an item number that Ulta lists on the website, right under the picture of the item.

 

The product id is the number given to the item in the URL.  So Ulta's site follows this formula of having the url and then the very last part of the url is "productId=xlsImpprod" followed by an 8 digit number.  If you use that "productId" number you can get to the page of any item on ulta. 

It's not a search, but the direct url to the page. 

Click on any product, and then view the url in the address bar.  It will look like this: ulta's website (not using the actual domain because BT admins don't like that) /prep-prime-fix?productId=xlsImpprod15921204  Replace the 8 digit product id of the item you want to see with the id of the product you're looking for.

 

My very unofficial Ulta point multiplier to approximate percent discount chart:

(This is a number where I use the multiplier to divide by 2000 to see how many dollars I would have to spend in order to redeem a $125 reward.  E.g. 2000 points divided by 1 point multiplier means I have to spend $2000 to get the $125 reward.  Adding how much I had to spend ($2000) + the reward ($125), and then using the reward ($125) to divide the total purchase ($2125), I get a discount of approximately 6% based on the total purchase.  Note: the total purchase is based on the concept that you are spending just enough to reach the next $125 reward and combines the reward value with how much money you had to spend to get that reward.

Re: Ulta GWPs

OH no, #3 is out of stock already 😞

Re: Ulta GWPs

thank you @ClassicallyFab

the website still gives me such a fit when it comes to posting pictures!

Re: Ulta GWPs

Yeah, I have such a difficult time with this site, too. It drives me crazy, esp. on the mobile site. @CaityLane

Re: Ulta GWPs

Mac is coming in June I believe. Has anyone heard or seen any events they might be having?

Re: Ulta GWPs

Thanks ladies this is so cool!

Re: Ulta GWPs

Coming where? To ULTA?!

Re: Ulta GWPs

@Er667799 @Maria88 I was curious too, so googled, Ulta has a page on it but does not list any specific event besides the dates when Mac will be online to browse then shop. there are a few articles about this too, I didn't read them all tho. I hope they do have an event though! 🙂

Re: Ulta GWPs

Awesome thx!

Re: Ulta GWPs

@wickedlollipop Thank you for the exact date!

Re: Ulta GWPs

@Maria88 I believe MAC will be available online sometime in May & in stores in June 🙂

Re: Ulta GWPs

@Maria88- Yep, MAC is going to be in Ulta soon!

Re: Ulta GWPs

@Maria88Yup- to Ulta. 🙂 Mac wants to strengthen its brand. So excited. Not sure why, but Sephora chose not to carry Mac, though.

Re: Ulta GWPs

@ClassicallyFab i actually think that was a smart move for both companies. I feel like every time I see a Sephora, there's a Mac around the corner. This is not true of Ulta, it's a pretty separate world. I could see it being either Mac or Sephora who made that call, or maybe it never even came up lol. (All pure speculation of course!)

Re: Ulta GWPs

That's a good point, @Alicehoopz. Here in the 'burbs, there are strip mall Sephora stores, and quite a few malls that don't have Mac but have Sephora, so I didn't think of it like you. I swear I read somewhere that Sephora chose not to carry them, I just cannot find where I read it (I just tried a few Safari searches to no avail). I figure it could make sense for Sephora to carry some of the Mac products that Ulta won't ("MAC Cosmetics won’t take up a large portion of Ulta Beauty Inc’s physical retail locations. Instead, the products will be limited to 200 square feet in each store. This will only allow it to offer 600 different items, which only makes up about 45% of its merchandise."- investorplace), similar to how Sephora carries some Tarte products and Ulta carries others. You're so right, though. If many of the Sephora stores are near Mac stores, then it absolutely may not make sense. Excellent deduction.

Re: Ulta GWPs

MAC probably wanted to keep too much profit or not pay them the percentage they wanted, decisions are always related to the color green.  

Re: Ulta GWPs

Have you guys seen this set?

Re: Ulta GWPs

@ZombieMetroAnt They also have a "Glow Enhancer Drop Kit" that intrigues me. I definitely want to try that one

Re: Ulta GWPs

Interesting! I'm curious to see if it'll get good reviews. Thanks for sharing! 

Re: Ulta GWPs

Not a deal but I was in store today swatching away and found an Ulta brand gem!

Their strobing palette!

Look at that Highlight!

Re: Ulta GWPs

Does anyone know or have any idea of when the next 20%off coupon is coming? 

 

Also, is Lancome always excluded from it?

 

TIA

Re: Ulta GWPs

I looked back through my last few 20% q's, and yes, lancome is a usual exclusion (along with clinique, dermalogica, and Dyson). As for when we'll get one, folks here say we had one around this time last year, so hopefully we'll get one soon 🙂
