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 I was just thinking, it's a miracle that it's not Opal again! Maybe they've FINALLY run out of sample sizes! Though pass as well for me since I've already got Rose Gold in the Becca x Chrissy Teigen palette (which I love so much!).

[alexasteph]

When I saw this I was hoping it’d be a bronzer so I don’t have ANY Becca bronzers. I’m only missing like 3 of the highlighters, and Rose Gold isn’t one of them. I do need to pick some things up and the BF is out of a few of his products so I will place an order before the 20% expires, but I think I’ll hold out maaaaybe a bit longer in case something else comes along.

[niki172]

Oh whether to go ahead and place an order or wait to see if something else comes along - decisions decisions.

. I'm not super excited about this beauty break, but it beats nothing. Thank you @ohheyitscindyk for posting :).

[Luvstravel]

@ohheyitscindk, thanks for posting! So I guess the Cover FX will be for a later date Beauty Break?

[Luvstravel]

@ohheyitscindyk, Philosophy beauty break this week? I have in my cart, but still not showing free yet.

[ohheyitscindyk]

@Luvstravel With the Becca BB today & the 20% off coupon, I don't think we'll get another BB this week. But, you never know!

[Maria88]

Wasn't it mentioned earlier that maybe on the 28th we'd be getting a big GWP? I forgot who mentioned it (maybe @itscarin?) but I was trying to hold on till then.

[itscarin]

@Maria88 Guilty as charged.  2017 looked like this:

[ohheyitscindyk]

@Maria88 @itscarin did mention that. I'm looking at last year's spreadsheet & the Monday after the 20% offs were emailed was a Platinum Perk day, then there was a Beauty Break on Thursday, not Wednesday as usual.

This year, we had the mask bags GWP on Friday (with a Platinum perk) & now today's Beauty Break. So I don't know if there will be another GWP before Saturday 😞

[ohheyitscindyk]

@Luvstravel Yup! I'm thinking that & the Philosophy BB should go live soon 🙂

Quite a few of us know at least a few who've been working with Ulta for months and still aren't receiving Ulta emails, let alone promo codes or the widely distributed 20% off coupons that the majority of us take forgranted. Some are even Platinum and Diamond. Many of us receive codes we can't use, so I'm wondering if there's interest in a new thread to PM codes requested by those who still aren't receiving them, as well as updates on how these issues are being resolved/have been resolved/not resolved by Ulta. It's a first-world problem, but we all want the best deals, so it feels weird for some of us to receive them while others don't. @katkapivarci @dido2007 @Loretta55 @Maria88 @Anonymous @wwTraveler @AnneMCC

[Amreeners]

This is a great idea!

I have coupons I don't use sometimes and would love to share them with others!

Oddly enough, never got the 20% coupon either, and I felt dumb asking for one because I have been pretty inactive for a while, but just recently started posting again. If anyone does have one that they are willing to separate from, that would be so awesome 🙂

[NatureGirlSD]

@Amreeners There's a new thread in this group for discussions about not receiving Ulta emails I case you're interested. 🙂

[Amreeners]

I am totally interested! Please direct me there 🙂

[Anonymous]

I would love to be part of the thread 😎

[Loretta55]

I would definitely participate @NatureGirlSD. A couple of years ago I stopped receiving emails from Ulta. I called their customer service and I had a very helpful representative. There was a 20% off code at that time so she sent one to my email and after that I had no more problems. I did not realize that so many people were having problems with receiving their emails which may had contained unique codes.

[Maria88]

I love this idea!

[katkapivarci]

@NatureGirlSD Yes, I would definitely appreciate thread like that👍🏻👍🏻

[AnneMCC]

Count me in! I’m not on the board as much in summer because all my kids are home. I recently made diamond and am super annoyed because i didn’t get a gift and haven’t had an email in a month or more 😕

[NatureGirlSD]

You're on the list. 🙂
