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.

Same here, PM me if you need a coupon! 🙂

[LCResz]

I have a coupon I won't be using either, PM me!

[sarahshter]

If anyone wants my coupon let me know, I inherited my moms hair styling devices and she had probably 15-20 different devices. She was so awesome! 😇

[RGbrown]

Ulta seems to have loaded quite a bit of clearance to the site; check out the sale page for tons of 50-75% off stuff including:

Some Living Proof styler sets

StriVectin hair

AG Hair liters down to $14.99

Lots of Bronx Colors

Treets Traditions

A few Maybelline and L'Oreal items

Grace Cole

Hawaiian Tropic

And lots more!

[Anastasiya13]

@RGbrownWish they did that at my ulta store. Stopped by yesterday and all the sale was pretty much a fail at the location near me.

[RGbrown]

@Anastasiya13Unidentified

My stores were pretty sad too...it was a complete waste of time and gas 👎

[Anastasiya13]

@RGbrown I felt the same way, luckily it was on the way to my destination.

[NatureGirlSD]

Thanks to @RGbrown, I've discovered just how nice the Ulta Luxe Lipsticks are, as well as their Juice Infused Lip Oils. The packaging on the lipsticks is comparable to UD Vice and the shade I picked was exactly what I expected just from the pic on the Ulta site. (Hard to Love- perfect for fair skin with cool undertones.) The Lip Oil in coconut is perfect for a lip topper or overnight moisture. If anyone's interested in building up their lippie collection, the coupons for $5 off any Ulta Beauty Collection purchase of $15 or more are perfect to use right now. Both lippies are currently buy 3, get 2 free, for a total of $20.50 to $22 with a code.

[Lazybeautybeast]

I totally agree. I think I got a lip oil in a bday gift and another in a gwp bag. I almost didn't try them but I love them.

[sarahshter]

I’ve generally found that I enjoy most makeup products I purchase from Ulta, and these lip products are nice, esp the lip oils they have.

[NatureGirlSD]

@sarahshter Yeah! Until last week, I'd only tried what they send free, which is often hit or miss, but some of their lip crayons have been better than the Clinique lip crayon that came in a recent GWP. I still continue to be surprised when I pick up Ulta's Luxe lipstick since it really does look and feel like UD Vice, minus the opacity. Their eye primers/shadows are nice too. Now to try their gel liner.

[RGbrown]

Yay! I'm so glad you like them!! 👏@NatureGirlSD

[sonnydee]

Not a gwp but is ulta coupons I will not be using & don't want them to go to waste: $5 off any ulta beauty collection of $15 or more. 3SBXZ9AV57 and $2 off Burt 's bees beauty enter code BURTSBEES2 expires 9/1/18. please comment when used

@ohheyitscindyk Thank you! I'm also glad you added your name to it. 😄

I'm going down the rabbit hole again thinking of the possibilities with the drybar 5x and platinum 5x.  If you bought the 3 day bender($145) and the travel blow dryer ($135), using the 20% off coupon and treating each item as a separate transaction, you would pay $224 for both items and have another $125 to spend at ulta.  (224 * 9.25 multiplier = 2072 in points)  You could then take your $125 in points and put it towards the it's a wrap styling wand ($165), and if the 20% off coupon still works, that would bring it down to $132, so $7 after you use the points, and assuming the multiplier was still active, I think you would get another 4x on the $165 drybar tool, and then 5.25x on the $7 purchase.  I think it would yield 695 points.  

I just checked my cart and you would only receive 564 points if you were to buy the $165 iron and use 2000 points.

[CC3616]

@itscarin they also sent 20% off a single styling tool (including dyson) this morning, good until 8/4. 

[Alicehoopz]

Oh yeah now is a GREAT time to buy Drybar.

They won me over after Ulta put the baby buttercup on clearance (a while back) - oh my, I never knew I'd love a blow dryer!

I'm adding the lower cost items I've been eyeing to my orders - ie the shower cap for $16, as it works with the $3.50 off coupon. 112-118 points for your $12.50 item!! 😮😮

[RGbrown]

564 points checks out, assuming you are using the 20% as well, since the purchase price becomes $132. I think the "entire basket" Q's work a little differently...they subtract a lump sum after the subtotal and mysterious don't affect the item price, but the single-item Q's effectively change the price of the item before the subtotal, if that makes sense.

@itscarin

[itscarin]

@RGbrown @ohheyitscindyk @luvgloss13 @greeneyedgirl107 In case anyone is interested, there's a 20% off code that's working on everything - 637323.  The only catch is it will only work on ONE item.  I really can't tell what the rhyme or reason is to what it works on.  Will work on the new UD palette; won't work on ABH palettes.  Will work on dry bar tools; doesn't work on dysons (what does?!); won't work on dry bar liters.

I literally just bought 2 hair products this Sunday lol
