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 like last week's gwp bag better than this week's gwp bag..

[RGbrown]

Agreed...a lot of less than stellar gifts in this one, and lots of repeats. But I like the bag itself lol, plus I'm happy to finally see a bumble gwp item (and it's the one bb item I can't live without!). Also want the Lipstick Queen and the Clean fragrance...haven't seen either one of those in gwp's before that I can remember. But all in all, I don't think this is the best mix Ulta has put together, at least not for me.

[rbkh]

agree - this one is more like a $75 buy in... but I'm trying to stay strong until Black Friday/Cyber Mon!

[ArmyChick84]

I missed out on that one but I had to get this one!

[RandeeJ9]

Ugh, ulta is killing me! And here I thought we'd get a break from awesome gwps before black Friday... 😛  must resist. Must resist but probably won't! 😉

[mezzotown88]

@RGbrown Thank You for posting !! I was just trying to get the $150 gwp with the TF chocolate vault but the vault is out of stock now .That's just great!!  Great timing!! 😞 

Completely forgot about the UD multiplier! I think the UD multiplier is expiring tomorrow....

[RGbrown]

@mezzotown88

Aw, so sorry you missed the vault 😕

And yes, UD 5x ends tomorrow!

[RGbrown]

A new brand launched today; looks interesting!

[CaityLaine]

I have a simple request just in case anyone here happens to notice or knows any inside scoop.  I am very seriously interested in the Tartelette vault that was available at Ulta for a short time.  They have since sold out and removed it from their website. 😞

I have done all I can do to try and get a definitive answer from Tarte and Ulta on whether or not they will be bringing the tartelette vault back and no luck.  They won't tell me anything for sure.

I can still buy it direct from Tarte so not all hope is lost, but I just really love going through Ulta for my points. 

Normally, if I missed something I would get over it, but this vault would be the absolute perfect Christmas gift for my BFF's and I'm so bummed I missed out on it.

Blah, long story short, please let me know if you see it or have any details !

[missdarcy]

I had the same problem earlier this year with the UD vault with the 3 naked palettes (before there was a fourth!). It conveniently sold out/went missing from the website right before a 20% sale, I think (or possibly just a platinum gwp; I usually wait to use points for at least one of those). I emailed Ulta very grumpily, and they emailed me back to say that it wouldn't be back because they were changing over their stock all the time, blah blah blah. I think it's possibly they do only get a small number of the vaults, but based on my experience, I wouldn't expect it to be back up on Ulta's website. 

[mezzotown88]

@CaityLaine I'm also waiting for the tarlette vault to come back/  I don't want to buy the vault on the tarte website- same reason( I will not get points)

Hope they come back 😞 

[ArmyChick84]

Are there any upcoming promos before Cyber Monday? I am hoarding my points like crazy (about to hit 4000) and I am not sure I want to save it until after Thanksgiving. I am itching to buy more stuff lol.

[Sage1983]

I believe there are going to be some deals.  It looks like they put up a cyber monday ad and then took it down because some info was from last year but it also had this year's new items. I am over 5000 now and am saving mine up too.  May even just keep waiting until the clearance sales in Jan lol. Good luck!

[ClassicallyFab]

Ha. I know that feeling all too well. There doesn't appear to be anything special coming up. Sometimes there are the periodic Platinum events, and beauty breaks, but I'd save the points, unless there's something you're really itching to get right now. I am saving mine... @ArmyChick84

[ilovebears]

Several T3 tools are on sale, and the additional 20% off code and bonus rewards points makes for some pretty good deals. I picked up the travel-size hair dryer for just under $80 (reg. $150), and earned 257 points! Excited to not have to use hotel hair dryers ever again... But a tiny bit bummed I didn't place my order earlier today, and missed out on the Beauty Break GWP.

[Loretta55]

This seek’s Beauty Break has been posted. Nothing exciting but it makes a great stocking stuffer. Four piece set from Urban Decay containing deluxe sizes of Troublemaker Mascara, Pervasion Eyeliner, All Night Setting Spray, and Big Bang Vice Liquid Lipstick. 2518822 is the item number. I ordered the Too Faced Chocolate Vault along with Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Baci which eluded me during Sephora’s Weekly WOW Sale recently.

[SnowyZebra21]

Ulta hot buy Stila all day liquid lipstick $13.20 Glitterrati top coat full size $13.20 deluxe size $6.00

[BrwnSugaG]

agh - i had a bad experience w/stila direct recently and now i'm trying not to buy any of their products anymore. but i've always wanted glitteratti!! what to do what to do?!?

[Sage1983]

I just got a 20% coupon code for any styling tool except Dyson.  Please pm me for the code as I don't really buy the brands that they offer at ulta or sephora. 

[ilovebears]

The code is generic. Someone already shared it below 🙂
