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.

@StephaniLynn

It's not the easiest workaround in the world, but you could always reorder and plan on returning the first order when it arrives. 😕

[PrettyPaint]

Out of curiosity...Did anyone who ordered yesterday (with the two gift bags) have their order ship yet? Mine hasn't yet so I'm hoping both bags will definitely be included. Thanks!

[KatieJiang]

@PrettyPaint  You should be fine! I ordered last night (today at 4 A.M.) and everything shipped an hour ago. I was trying to resist the two gift bags but I gave in and ordered the NARS Orgasm Liquid Blush, and my usual body wash and body sponges - as I like to switch them quite often. What really made me pull the trigger was I remembered that I had gift card. 🙂

[KatieJiang]

@PrettyPaint  I'm glad to hear yours shipped too! I hope to see it in the Hauls thread! 😉 Thanks for giving  positive review on the blush. Now I'm more excited to receive it!

[PrettyPaint]

Thanks @KatieJiang 

It has shipped now! I was slightly worried because ulta has been shipping very quickly lately, but I've now received my shipping confirmation so everything should be good!

Wow! You ordered at 4am? I love it! The NARS liquid blush is great. I have orgasm, and I'm hoping ulta will get the other shades at some point.

[melash]

Mine also shipped, ordered Friday night got shipping notice at 10:30 Saturday morning. Both bags were included.

[PrettyPaint]

Thanks, @melash glad yours shipped! Mine just shipped about an hour ago, and both bags appear to be included. Yay!

[RGbrown]

@PrettyPaint

Mine has shipped; it took almost a full 24 hours (ordered at 245 yesterday morning, got my ship notice at 145 this morning...are they really working at that hour??) 

[PrettyPaint]

Thanks @RGbrown. That's great that it shipped. It always weirds me out when I get shipping confirmations in the middle of the night!

[KatieJiang]

Have you guys seen the new Ulta app? I love the new look and layout! Everything is simple and cutesy. 

(Sorry this isn't a GWP.)

[PrettyPaint]

Thanks, @KatieJiang I actually didn't have the app previously so I just downloaded it. It looks very user friendly.

[RGbrown]

...gah...I am deathly afraid of change and the new BT has not helped that fear one bit 😂

I hate the new (-ish now, it's been a couple months since they updated it) Ulta mobile site and have been using the app more and more because it's generally easier. Kinda skeered to update the app and decide it's awful too lol. 🤣

Can someone with the new app tell me...say you are on a product page, say UD 24/7 eyeliners...can you click "urban decay" as the brand and immediately be taken to the UD brand page with all UD items shown? That's the one thing I miss most in the app. I have a bit of ADD and wander mindlessly sometimes, and if I find myself on an item page for a brand I don't know much about, I want to see all of their items...but doing that from the app takes several steps (where it's just one click on desktop or the mobile site).

Thanks for the heads up on it @KatieJiang!

[RGbrown]

@ClassicallyFab

Thankee ma'am, I appreciate it ☺️

[ClassicallyFab]

Hahahahaha!! 🤣😂 that's so funny! I almost always just use the site, not the app, so that's why I wrote that! Upgrade- that's a good addition. 👍🏻🙃 @RGbrown

[RGbrown]

@ClassicallyFab

Still? That's not an option on my ulta app right now...I must be way behind on updating it then lolol

Thank you!!!!!

[ClassicallyFab]

@RGbrown Yes, we can still tap on Urban Decay. It looks different, but the functionality is there, still.

Oh WOW @KatieJiang

Thanks for mentioning that 🙂 I didn't know they had updated the Ulta app!

i went to my apps store and I have 24 updates waiting LOL so I just updated Ulta and it is so different!!! I need to get used to it now hahaha so many changes theses days right?!?!

chachachachaaanges......... ;/

[PaletteAddict99]

@RGbrown & @ClassicallyFab I agree with you both that this BT platform change has freed up a lot of my time to get a ton of other stuff done. 

#RealLife 😉

by the way @ClassicallyFab I never got a chance to thank you before the change for the advice you gave me on the deals thread about how to save a picture on my iPhone rather then taking a screen shot. That works great. Thanks again 🙂

[ClassicallyFab]

@PaletteAddict99 Yay! Glad it's working for you. 👍🏻😃

[PrettyPaint]

@ClassicallyFab Ugh, I need to put laundry away. That may be one of my least favorite chores.

[ClassicallyFab]

@PrettyPaint The worst- putting laundry away, cleaning 🛀  tubs and 🚽 toilets, emptying the dishwasher. Oh, and trying to organize a child's room. My girl has made about 50 batches of slime, and I'm at a loss as to what to do with them, lol!
