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.

@eshoe

I'm starting the Great Toner Hunt of 2019 (uggghhh) and just finished off 4 packets of the Calendula toner 😛 It was...fine but not wow (I really prefer an acid toner, and it's not one), and I still have several others to get through before deciding. Being available at Ulta might move it a notch or two up the final list though lol

[eshoe]

hmmm ok yeah, I don’t have a great toner to suggest but may head back to that one (it was $$ back in my day, thinking $25-28/8oz @RGbrown?) if it goes to Ulta. I just use micellular water now, for whatever that is worth🤷🏻‍♀️

[RGbrown]

@eshoe

I knew the hunt was coming, so part of my horrible holiday-season spending spree has involved buying nearly every single toner Ulta had on sale or that I was interested in...I have 5 or 6 ready to go. Obsessive much? Hahahahaha 😛

[magda124]

I got the Mamonde Hydrating Beauty Water in a Plat Perk Bag a while bag and ended up really liking it. 💕 Very strong scent, but I do like roses so I was cool with it. Also, was peering at the ingredients in the back and imagine my surprise when it said, Packaged by Amore Pacific!! 😁

Just bought the Skin&Co Truffle Therapy Skin Toner... here's hoping it's awesome! 🤞

[ohheyitscindyk]

@RGbrown I'm looking for a good toner, let me know what you like, please! 🙂

[RGbrown]

@ohheyitscindyk@eshoe

Will do, ladies!

FWIW, I'm currently using Derma E Radiance Toner...at $14.99, I was so hopeful this would be a clear winner right off the bat. It's got glycolic acid (yay), and I really like how it makes my skin feel, but it's very strongly rose-scented, which is a huge no-no for me (most any floral scent is an automatic no in my book, but if you like rose, this one would be a great one to try!).

[eshoe]

Is is a soapy rose aka ‘attic’ rose scent @RGbrown? I like rose scents for the most part. I tried a Derma-E Micellular Water but it burned my eyes:/

[RGbrown]

@eshoeUnidentified

I'm not well versed in rose scents, but I'd call this a classic rose, quite strongly scented at that. Soapy doesn't cross my mind at all. Just heavily floral.

[eshoe]

Curious to hear about them @RGbrown. I kind of skip that step in lieu of the Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist, but that’s not carried here anymore. If you think of it, tag me when you try stuff out. You might not like it and I might love it, or vice versa;)

Don't forget to use your $15 off $75 coupons! If you received the gwp bag with your cyber Monday order, it may have contained one of these... unique codes, only good for December. Not as cool as 20% off prestige, but still lovely on many items in the Merry Monday sale.

[Feebee1115]

I got the cancellation too. And also realized they haven’t even shipped my order from 11/28!  Wondering how these other orders are being shipped so quickly. Especially since Ulta doesn’t let you cancel orders as they claim to process them immediately 

[ohheyitscindyk]

@Feebee1115 My order from the 28th shipped yesterday morning, but I wonder how some of yesterday's orders shipped so quickly when other orders from the 28th, like yours, haven't shipped yet.

I placed three orders yesterday & two were cancelled. My first order got close, but I got an OOS email for that one (though the beautyblender sample is still processing lol).

I'm wondering if those people ordered items that were less likely to go OOS, or smaller items. But then again, my boyfriend ordered conditioner & his were cancelled. I went for the big ticket items, along with other people, so maybe that's why mine got cancelled. I also read someone added a cart filler to avoid paying shipping, maybe that helped her order ship.

I'm just jealous of those who have the pick up in store option!

[ohheyitscindyk]

I just got a shipping notification for just the beautyblender sample lol.

[Feebee1115]

Me too! I guess I’ll hope to get my non-glitch orders. 

[ohheyitscindyk]

@Feebee1115 I just realized I have an order from the 27th that hasn't shipped yet, not sure how they process orders.

[Feebee1115]

@ohheyitscindyk just got a shipping notice from my order on 11/28. 

I’m hoping PP day is good so I can use my 20% off

[Luvstravel]

Ulta sucked me in again with The Dose of Colors highlighters half price 😏

[SportyGirly125]

@Luvstravel They have really good highlighters. I have Fuego from the DesixKaty collection and both the highlighters from the iLoveSarahi collection. 

[Luvstravel]

@SportyGirly125, I swatched them in Ulta the other day and really liked them. I bought several of the Ofra highlighters earlier this year when Ulta had them half price also.

[RGbrown]
