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

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.

agree- haven't been excited about the last few bbs so i'm holding out. hoping something good pops up tomorrow. if not, i'm still good skipping on this one.

• Platinum bag plus 20% off would have been amazing but i'm still excited to be able to order the new Naked palette with a discount plus get a beauty break. Thanks for the heads up @katieJiang!

[JennVA]

I broke down yesterday when we didn't get the regular beauty break and used my 20%. I had $125  in rewards points burning a hole in my virtual pocket. I'm not even sorry I missed this BB tbh... Now if there's something good by Friday😬

[sabrinas]

@dd0214 im in the same boat.. i dont know what to do. Ill probably hold out.. even if I miss out on this I dont really care as I wouldnt use it lol.

[dd0214]

The microdelivery wash is the only thing I might use here. Ulta has spoiled us! And now they are tightening the reigns.

I just wish that platinum bag could've coincided with our 20% off.

[treecup]

 Sigh. Tried both the app and the website and it didn't work in either place.

The Jul/Aug/Sept birthday gift!  I haven't tried NYX shadows but this gift seems nice 🙂  It kinda reminds me of the ABH Mario Palette

[mwg1]

Nice! And with my July birthday I'm using my 20% off coupon on Saturday and getting double points!

[summrgirl8]

Yay, my birthday is in August! I'm so excited to get this! What an awesome freebie.

[ALW31427]

Not bad! I'm a September baby so I can't wait to get this! I've never tried NYX shadows before.

[myumew]

Woo can't wait for my birthday! 😄

[Mcakes]

What a nice birthday gift! I hope the 4th quarter folks get a good one too 😄 

[itscarin]

I hope it says "Happy Birthday" on the cover and I can't wait to see what the quality is like!

[starletta8]

Very cute!

Kinda jealous- I got a DS Lancome mascara sample (ok, pre-release) in April. So not even the same.

[snickerdoodle10]

I'm in the same boat as you! The last couple of years I felt that quarter 2 folks got the short stick. Maybe 2018 will be our year! 🙂

[candyrivera]

Little off topic. It really peeves me off that they don't keep the gifts the same all year. A lot of the gifts aren't even equal to each other. Last year, one quarter got a full size urban decay eye shadow, but another quarter received a mini roller lash mascara instead. Not even remotely equal. I know these are free gifts, but it's just not the best way to go about it.

[RGbrown]

Soooo much better than the DS porefessional we got in the first quarter this year. I'm so jealous!

[rbkh]

seriously- first quarter has always been the worst IMO! 

[MyKidsHave4Legs]

No joke!  A crappy Ulta shadow and a mini Porefessional come to mind..  just stop already.  >:/

[KMart919]

Just came to post this! I'm kinda not really excited by it, but it's a gift so of course I'll get mine and give it a try. I appreciate that the give us anything & the fact that Ulta does full size gifts is a huge plus.

[alexasteph]

Those look like nice colors. My birthday is in September so I'm excited to get this!
