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.

@RGbrown Ulta drives me CRAZY with the way they list/don't list the colors until you hover over the picture. Would a drop down list kill them?! I know EXACTLY the color you're talking about, I am ALSO waiting for a great deal to snag it direct 🙂

@ohheyitscindyk

Thank you!!!

I was wondering if we'd have a Skinfatuation gift this month, since a few of these came out in a gwp earlier in Jan. Glad to see it...I want the Kiehl's toner (even though I'm already tired of the Tula cleanser and Boscia peel mask lolololol)!

[ohheyitscindyk]

@RGbrown Of course, I just bought a FS of the toner lol. How is the cleanser? I have so many already that I need to get through, so I went for the Juice Beauty perk on Monday.

[RGbrown]

@ohheyitscindykUnidentified

I'm thiiiis close to finishing off a different full size cleanser, so I haven't tried it quite yet, but I did unseal a mini to check the scent before deciding on Monday, and wound going with the Juice Beauty too. I think it's gonna be a bit strong for me, scent-wise. Kinda floral, kinda herbal, maybe a touch powdery? It's hard to describe, but I definitely wrinkled my nose at it. Will have to see exactly how much I dislike it after a use or two, but I don't think I'll be a fan 😥

[ohheyitscindyk]

@RGbrown Thanks for the heads up, I don't think I'd be a fan or it, either.

Quick question for Ulta-goers, if a product is on sale online and it’s in stock in a store near me, will it be on sale in store too?

[alexalicious]

It really varies quite a bit, even from store to store. Items that say "online only" generally are not the in-store price. You can always ask if they will honor the online price at the store, but it is at the store manager's discretion so don't be surprised if they say no. btw- I've noticed recently the stores have better prices than online on some holiday merchandise (Smashbox sets) so it definitely pays to visit the store and look for the sale items.

[sephoraaddict918]

I think it depends @gillian321. Previously, I saw some Japonseque brushes on sale online, but the were full price at the store. I also just went to the store to buy Bliss eye masks because they were on sale online, but there was no sign saying they were on sale in the store. But they rang at the sale price. Maybe the store can do a price match with the online price if the products are different prices?

[gillian321]

Gotcha, thanks for the response!

Just a heads up if you are a fan of PTR unwrinkle line, it's a 40% off hotbuy ONLINE right now (& 5x multiplier if you have that offer). Word is it's being discontinued and reformulated soon. I heard a rumour that the toning lotion might be going bye-bye though😪 Pricing might vary in-store. My local had it at $38. (vs $22.80 online) ***(use $5 off $25 Coupon in the Ulta love your skin: ingredients that matter set) (& check if your store has the PTR GWP) FYI- Some stores also still have PTR marked down holiday sets left: just grabbed a few mini of thermal mask and moisturizer sets for $7.50 each (5.5x =41 points)

[RGbrown]

New multiplier

And a new brand

[sarahshter]

Anyone thinking of buying Ora Rollers should wait until Friday, Hautelook will have this brand, this is usually when I stock up on my dermarollers!

[NatureGirlSD]

@sarahshter If you anyone's into dermarollers, I have a new-in-box R+F Redefine AMP MD System I'm willing to swap for whatever. Just message me if you're interested. I have the perfect routine for my sensitized skin & this terrifies me. (I really really really hope the person who gave it to me isn't seeing this!) @RGbrown

[mezzotown88]

Both freebies are showing up as out of stock😭

[NatureGirlSD]

So, we now have a $25 buy-in for the Diamond full-size gift that was formerly free with ANY purchase? And where are the free samples we heard were coming back after the holidays? Grrrrrrr.
