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.

[Buootiful]

Thanks for the heads up @RGbrown. too bad the only thing Im interested in is the Nyako oil. Good for my wallet though 🙂

[magda124]

Is the Mamonde sleeping lip mask OOS? I'm getting the cart ready and it doesn't add on with any prestige skin items. 🤔

[RGbrown]

@magda124Unidentified

Yup, it didn't last long...went oos sometime before midnight, because it had been yanked from my cart when I was doing my 12am check 😥

“Currently ok with foundation”;) please comment if used:) ty!

Sheet mask advice, please! Yesterday, masks from Leaders were at the Love Your Skin event Hot Buys price of $3-5.40, then went back to regular price, likely when new sale prices were loaded at midnight central. I'm both irked & relieved since I'd like to get my mom three and five masks, but know nothing about that brand or very much about sheet masks, in general. She's only requested "moisturizing", so I'm looking at Leaders, Mamonde, H2O+, or Julep. (I have a half off promo code for the latter.) I've gone over Reddit recommendations, but there are so many preferences I'm just more confused. I've personally used & liked gel eye patches from Wander Beauty & H2O+ for convenience & how they adhere, but I'm unsure if they're good for all over moisture. Does anyone have any fav moisture masks from those brands that aren't OTT fragrant? Any help would be much appreciated until Ulta loads back in the sale prices! One more small request-- would those of you who ordered the Trilogy Botanical Body Wash please go ahead & return yours since I really want one. Haha! 😛

[alexalicious]

@NatureGirlSD fyi- looks like that trilogy botanical wash is back in stock now.

[NatureGirlSD]

@alexalicious Thanks! I was able to grab one when it briefly came back in stock. Yay!

[snoflakefaerie]

@NatureGirlSD I also really like the Leaders masks, but the Mamonde aren't bad. They definitely have a floral scent to them though. I realize you didn't ask about the Andalou brand, but I really like their pink and purple sheet masks to moisturize. They occasionally have great sales on them, and I believe the generic coupon works on them.

[quspork]

Another vote for Leader's! They're actually one of my favorite brands for sheet masks, @NatureGirlSD. They do not generally have a noticeable sent and they hydrate very well. Their fit is good and they offer excellent quality for the price you're paying. I always stock up on a few during sales.

I'll add my recommendation for Leaders. As someone who hates most sheet masks, their 7 Wonders and the Coconut Gel ones in the grey packages are pretty nice. They fit relatively well and aren't heavily scented. The gel ones are a tad bit slippery when first applied, but stay in place pretty well after a couple of minutes.

It's not on sale now, but another one to watch for is Biobelle. They are my hands down favorite. Their Tencel material is some sort of sorcery...it feels almost like I'm wearing nothing at all. Light scent that dissipates quickly, moisturizing, no alcohol, fits exceptionally well, adheres well and stays in place...seriously fabulous all around.

I like the style of the H2O ones...a dry gel with no drippy mess, but I never feel like they do anything for me. 🤷‍♀️

I haven't tried any Mamonde sheet masks either, but all of their other products I've smelled are complete flower bombs, so I'll echo the advice to probably steer clear of them. 😐

[NatureGirlSD]

@RGbrown Thanks! I just emailed CS about the Leaders masks since they're not available nearby. I'll compare with the Biobelle too since I'm seriously considering a second bottle of PTR toning lotion & want to order ASAP!

[MissPuff]

@NatureGirlSD That's so weird that the price went back up since the hot buys are supposed to be active during the entire promo (not just the daily beauty steal). I'd keep checking back and forth if I were you.

I'm a big fan of leaders and I find most of their masks have a light scent at first that disappates quickly. My favorite style of leaders masks are the gel ones, but their regular cotton ones are super lovely too, almost too much serum, they never seem to dry! I haven't used a Mamonde mask yet, but I have used other products in their line and they are VERY VERY heavily scented, overpoweringly floral. No comments on the other brands, but good luck! 

[NatureGirlSD]

@MissPuff Thank you! I recently saw a few posts about how strongly fragranced some Mamonde products were, but I only have their Lip Sleeping Mask, which has little scent. Fun fact, the last time I checked, all of the Mamonde masks had essentially the same ingredients, but likely diff fragrances, with the exception of the rose mask, which lacks niacinamide. (It's been some time since I looked, so someone please correct me if this is wrong or ingredients have changed.)

So far, I'm leading toward Leaders coconut gel, but I'm looking at all of them until Ulta adds back the sale prices!

[eshoe]

@NatureGirlSD I would go with Leaders out of the ones you mentioned. The H2O masks are fantastic  with no noticeable scent, but do feel a bit like you are bandaging your face (very tightening but I love it!). 

The Leaders Coconut gel masks (the ones with the pretty flowers on the packaging; the Himalayan, Olive Oil, Melon, etc) are very nice and fit better than many cotton sheet masks. The Julep mask is great, but it’s 3 step so takes some time! It is bio cellulose and if it’s 1/2 off right now I would get it. 

[NatureGirlSD]

@eshoe Thank you so much, this is a great help! Good to know about the full face H2O+ masks. The eye patches briefly plump out an undereye crease, though I mainly think of them as convenient since they aren't messy & adhere, rather than skincare proper. 

The Julep masks have great reviews & I can get a pack of three for $11.50 from Julep, but I've personally stayed away for the reason you mentioned-- 3 steps! 

Reddit helped me get as far as leaning toward the Leaders coconut gels, so I'll continue looking at those until Ulta gets their sale prices back up. Thanks again. 🙂

[eshoe]

I restocked the Julep masks from their direct site recently and it took 3 weeks from the date I ordered to arrive, @NatureGirlSD, just a heads up. But its a fantastic mask, if they wouldn’t arrive by her birthday maybe they would make nice Valentines gifts 😉

The Aquaringer Leaders mask is great too.

[NatureGirlSD]

@eshoe Ugh, no on the three weeks. Thanks for the heads up. I'd just as soon wait to grab one half off as a Beauty Steal & save the Julep half off code for a more substantial purchase. 

[RandeeJ9]

So, no platinum perk day today? 😞

[magda124]

Fingers crossed for next week... I'm hoping the Plat Perk special items showing that day are a good sign! 😊

[NatureGirlSD]

@RandeeJ9 At least two of our Platinum Perks next Monday include half-off of Kate Somerville ExfoliKate and It Cosmetics Bye Bye Lines Serum. I'm looking forward to a good full size skincare freebie in this one!

[Danzie89]

Ohhh I am looking to buy the full sized ExfoliKate. I have a 0.5oz size I’ve been trying to save until I buy a new one from an old Sephora Favorites kit.
