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.
Multiplier | 1 | 1.25 | 1.5 | 2 | 2.25 | 2.5 | 3 | 3.25 | 3.5 | 4 | 4.25 | 4.5 | 5 | 7.25 | 7.5 | 8 | 8.25 | 8.5 | 9 | 9.25 | 9.5 | 10 | 10.25 | 10.5 |

@itscarin Oh no... So sorry to hear that. Hope it’ll clear up for you soon.
@alexalicious my substitutions were the Clinique eye makeup remover instead of the eyeliner, a Juice Beauty moisturizer instead of the GlamGlow eye cream, and similar to you the Living Proof hair mask instead of the styling cream. I don't mind any of these subs. I was more upset about getting the Light foundation sampler pack when I requested the Dark one.
@sephoraaddict918 And my “fair” foundation sampler had a nice 0.24 oz Estée Lauder Double Wear sub... in a medium/tan 4N1 shade! I wonder what’s going on with their quality control. I’d be happy to give it to you, but it might not be dark enough?
Oh man there is definitely something wrong with their quality control cuz the double wear was only gonna be in medium pack and guess what I ordered multiple orders and only got it once! I almost cried cuz it was the only one I wanted so I was glad I got at least one and it actually matched. So they put darker shades in lighter packs, lighter shades in darker packs. Not good.
They're being "thoughtful" and giving you a summer shade for next year. LOL
I'm not sure why I keep getting a female symbol next to my emoji. I don't really care about my emoji's gender lol. How odd.
It's been happening ever since one of the latest updates @alexalicious. I don't recall if it has been shared with the mods or not. It is odd for sure
🤦♀️😭💔💸🤬 srsly? 🔴Red dots are missing (I got 3 foils as subs?) 🔵 Blue for sample size grossly misrepresented 🟣 Purple for same brand substitutions, although the Dermalogica one was a foil. Its not right when the buy in is $150, especially when it's advertised as an exclusive perk for platinum and diamond. It's just been ridiculous this year, they used to make a solid attempt at subbing but this isn't it. This was an A+ bag as advertised but a C- in execution. Its missing too many items, majorly down graded product sizes, and most of the brand subs aren't up to the excitement of cult status ones offered IMHO. I know it's a "gift" but the point of these is to entice you to spend $150 and I feel it's a bit of a bait and switch when it fails to come close to the advertised value or representation of items.
that's disappointing, but, I mean...considering that with all of the orders that you've posted here, at least w/the ones I've noticed, these gwp bags are often gotten for significantly less than the "required" spend, so is it really fair to say it's unfair or wasn't worth the specific amount, when you spent significantly less than "required" to get it? 🤔
Here's the $150 bag
I know, I said I was gonna pass, and then had a cart ready maybe 5 minutes later 😂
Lotsa subs. One-for-one, so total count was correct, and except for one packet for a DS, most of them are pretty comparable. As always, some of the missing items are things I actually wanted, but for the most part, I'm happy with how the subs were handled.
Here's what lined up with the promo pic
Missing:
Noyah lip balm
Dermalogica Hydromasque Exfoliant 0.2oz
Living Proof No Frizz Nourishing Cream 1oz
Exuviance Detox Mud Mask 0.35oz
Bumble Glow Bond Building Styler 0.5oz
Smashbox Superfan mascara deluxe
Perricone MD Cold Plasma+ Sub-D Neck 0.25oz
Subs:
Botanics Simply Calm face cream 0.16oz
Dermalogica Biolumen-C serum 0.1oz
Living Proof Full Thickening cream packet 0.17oz
Exuviance Triple Microdermabrasion Face Polish 0.35mL
Cannuka CBD Gel Balm Cleanser 0.34oz
Smashbox Primerizer 0.13oz
Perricone MD Firming Eye Cream 0.135oz
@RGbrown Wow, our bags are actually fairly different, interesting. You got way better subs than I did. I wasn't too happy with mine, I was missing nearly everything I wanted but grateful to get the Perricone MD at least. I love Good Genes, but it was still listed as a 1oz when I placed my order.
Credit card peeps, check your emails! According to Reddit, a targeted 20% went out to at least some of y'all.
I hope this is a sign of things to come...hopefully Ulta is slowly ramping up to releasing one on a widescale basis soon 🤞
New gwp!

Did a little in-store shopping today! Ulta has 75% off yellow tags and 50% off red tags now through 10/3. My first store had all sorts of good stuff, but the other two I hit (encouraged by nice finds at the first one) were pretty barren. Figures!
Ulta summer candles $5.62
Nest wipes $6
Kate Spade perfumes (the entire Truly line) $24.48
Shea Moisture essential oils $1.75
Young Nails stamp kits $1.56
Zoya $2.50
I went to one of the newer Ulta's and got Lancome brushes for $10!! I also got the Revolution X Patricia Bright palette that I missed out online, so that was a nice surprise.
Y'all are point savvy here. If I want to redeem points in store on beauty services (a haircut for example), can I combine the cost with merchandise to maximize my point redemption? Want to hit the $125 mark for 2000 point redemption. Can't find any guidance on this on the ulta website.
The salon gives you a ticket that you take to the main registers; you can pay for services and merchandise together up there. 😊
Beauty Break is up! Available in 5 shades.

If anyone is wondering, the October birthday gift is a full-size Tarte mascara. I went over the weekend and my store was out of the September gifts, so I got the October gift, which was much more to my taste anyway.
Mascara yay! I'm an October baby. Can you say which by Tarte? Appreciate you 👍
Lights-Camera-Lashes, which is my go-to mascara, so I was happy to receive a new one!
