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.

@alexalicious It looks like it is.

[alexalicious]

Thanks for the update @ohheyitscindyk

[RGbrown]

Yet another new brand!!

[ArmyChick84]

I am excited about Zoeva! Previously I had to buy it on their website and they ship from Germany.

[Ashletta216]

21 days of beauty starts September 1st!

[APQWill]

I wonder how they will coordinate the Diamond month freebies or FWP with the 21 Day event?! 🤔 Hope they don't cheat us out of a good month cause Aug sucked. LOL

[bookwyrmm]

Yay! My birthday month! Anyone know what September's birthday reward will be?

[AkirraF]

I haven’t seen anything posted, but they usually show you 3 months in advance, so thats kinda weird.I would like to know too since its my bday month as well !

[sephoraaddict918]

September is my birthday month too @bookwyrmm!!!!! I haven't seen anything about the birthday reward yet.

[AkirraF]

We need a preview asap😩 this has been the hardest no buy.

[RGbrown]

New multiplier! 

[Danzie89]

I’m trying to resist all these GWP and wait until 10x points day. I usually spend about $100 to get the most return while not entirely breaking my budget. It’s hard to resist when there are so many sales right now! I wish we can have a preview of 10x points day so I don’t have FOMO.

[savvy4]

@Danzie89 Thanks for the reminder - I’ll wait until then before buying anything. Points rule!

Does anyone know if I’ll get points when I spend my $10 birthday gift or an e-gift card?

[RGbrown]

@savvy4 

Your birthday gift is a $10 coupon, so you won't earn points on it. You will earn points on whatever you actually spend, regardless of how you pay for it (so yes, you can pay with a gift card and still earn points). 

[savvy4]

Thanks @RGbrown Points are a wonderful thing but still somewhat confusing at times. 

[AkirraF]

I agree, and I have a bonus points offer too. This has been a hard no spend.

[treestar86]

they're killing us lately!  didn't get anything cuz I was tired (also of shopping maybe? lol), but wanted to use the 350 pts., waiting to see if there are any more pts. or gwps.

[Danzie89]

Me too! Unless there’s another bonus multiplier to stack, I’m waiting this one out!

[magda124]

Okay, so with a heavy heart and slightly irritated at myself for waffling and missing out on the Tarte GWP, I make my order and settle for the Kate Sommerville GWP, the mascara GWP and the Ulta GWP. I got a missed call from Ulta Beauty (?!) and just listened to the message.. apparently, they saw I was missed out on a GWP and were very sorry, and sent me a $25 e-gift card!! I checked my email and there it was! I don't know if it's another GWP that just went out of stock or the Tarte one (even though it never made it past check out) but I'm happy! Talk about making a customer feel appreciated! 💗💗

[itscarin]

@magda124 That's awesome!  See, that's the kind of customer service that sets Ulta apart.  I know it can be hit or miss, but I have never heard of Sephora doing anything like that for a customer.  The most generous I've heard them be is offering a couple of hundred points here and there for disappointments.  Some people say Ulta's cs sucks, but I think them reaching out to you to apologize with a $25 gc is a nice touch and shows that they really appreciate your business.

@magda124   You are golden- congratulations!
