Let's keep this thread on topic!
Ulta points refresher (because yes, it is that complicated):
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
Links are not allowed. In lieu of links, please read this:
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.

Looks like IGK is the beauty break $40 buy in.
IGK
Item 2555604
This is one of the best BB Iโve seen in a while. I placed two orders for things Iโve been holding off on buying for a while now ๐
@Buootiful I caved and got this. I havenโt met an Igk product I donโt like yet. I just wish I could use up shampoos and conditioners faster.
Nice haul! I cant believe it's already that time to buy holiday sets. I want to checkout some Eve lom products too โบ@itscarin
@Buootiful Xmas shopping is kind of my favorite thing, and I usually xmas shop early. I don't want to be scrambling at the last minute for things, especially this year since my due date is 12/29. I'm hoping the baby comes out before xmas!
This is off-topic for the ulta thread but on topic of xmas shopping: I have been debating over what to get some of the aunts/uncles for xmas this year. Last year, I lucked out and Anthropologie had 50% off all Voluspa candles on December 23rd. I wish I could go back in time and buy all the candles! Now I see Sephora has a variety of cute Voluspa candle sets and I'm thinking, wouldn't it be great to buy a set and then break it up into gifts? But then I'm also thinking, wouldn't it be great if Anthropologie did 50% off all Voluspa candles again this year?!
I'm super happy Ulta started carrying Kiehls. I wish they would start carrying Loccitane and Voluspa, too. I would hands down know exactly how I'm spending my points if they carried more items that could be gifted to the general family. I'll probably end up spending real money at Sephora to do my xmas shopping. ๐
At least the candle sets in Sephora will be 20% off in November. Fingers crossed Anthropologie does the sale by mid December ๐ @itscarin
I just get all the clearance stuff after the holidays...lol. ๐ there was a skinfix holiday lip balm set that was half off, but didn't show up in the sale section. they seem to have a lot of philosophy items (got a warm cashmere set for like $20) and some perfume samplers...also last year they had stila eyeshadows, laura geller and other name brand items half off after the holidays...so it's good to stock up then if you can haha.
There's a new brand up this afternoon: Pinch Provisions!
Does anyone know if bonus points get applied to purchases made with ulta points? I know you canโt earn points for a purchase paid for with points, but Iโm wondering if you can earn the bonus points.
For example, last year they did 500 bonus points with any naked cherry palette. Iโm wondering if I used points to buy the cherry palette would I get the bonus 500 points? I know I wouldnโt get base points or multipliers but Iโm wondering if itโs true for bonus points as well.
Good question! I haven't thought to try it since they killed earning while redeeming. It seems like it miiiight have a shot at working. Can someone who has the current TF BTS+BTW test it out and see if the points still show at checkout after applying points? I'd test myself, but didn't get it.
@RGbrown Iโve been racking my brain and canโt decipher it - whatโs BTS+BTW? TF is Too Faced, I think.
@RGbrown @sephoraaddict918 next question: do we think ulta will do 500 bonus points for the honey palette like they did for the cherry palette last year? I looked at the spreadsheet and saw there was an overlap between the bonus points on the cherry offer and the 20% off code. I have been waiting for a bonus points offer to pick up the honey palette.
Iโm trying to time it right so I maximize my points.
I don't really know @itscarin. Last year I wondered if Ulta had the bonus point offer because the Cherry palette was not selling a well as they had hoped, and Ulta needed a way to move more product. If the Honey palette is in a similar situation, then I could see another bonus point offer coming our way.
No clue, really. I'd say it's a decent possibility...bonus point offers have been pretty prevalent for UD items.
