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.

@maltan You should have gotten one- I would contact CS 🙂

[maltan]

Thanks for the tip! 🙂 I already called CS. With the hurricane, their Florida office won't be able to attend to customer concerns so I'll just wait for their response in a few days 😄

[RGbrown]

@Christinaco

Congrats on Platinum!! 🎉🎉

That's weird about the coupon though...I'd contact CS and see if they can fix you up with a good code; they're usually very accommodating in my experience ☺️

[sabrinas]

Remember todays platinum perk is the nars cheek palette for half off 🙂 and 5x the points! Yay!

[candyrivera]

New freebie. Check your emails. It's a personalized code I believe, or I would have posted the actual coupon. 

[maltan]

Never got any product code in my mail 😞 In case someone doesn't need theirs, I'll be happy to take it. Thank you!

[AnneMCC]

Dang it, I'm not getting any of the personalized code offers lately. Any remedies for this? I know in the past I've called and CS says it's targeted. Wish we could target ourselves!

[candyrivera]

@AnneMCCI know it's frustrating. I wish they would just give everyone the same thing, or at least, like you said, let us target ourselves. This is a big problem with their birthday gifts as well. The only advice I can give, is to make sure your "beauty preferences" are filled out in your account. Other than that I guess it's up to luck 😞 . A while back everyone was getting great sample coupons and I wasn't for some reason.

[AnneMCC]

I guess it goes in cycles. I was getting them earlier this year. Thanks @candyrivera@

[ClassicallyFab]

Wow! This is a good one!

[phantompenguinx]

PSA: the discounts for tomorrow's beauty steals are up! they aren't showing with free shipping, but if anyone is making a purchase today anyways (and was going to order tomorrow as well), I would take advantage of the 3x/5x points which I believe is supposed to expire tonight

womp womp looks like they fixed it

[RGbrown]

@phantompenguinx

Wow, thanks!

Yesterday's deals are still working too...how very very odd 🤔

[denn2626]

Just bought stuffs from ulta with 5x points 😁😁😁

[RGbrown]

Another new multiplier!

The new NYX elements collection dropped as well (6 palettes plus coordinating lipsticks). Anyone else find $29.99 for a drugstore palette a bit overpriced? I was maybe interested in one or two, but I think I'll be passing at that price 🤔

[mezzotown88]

@RGbrown This is just great, I just bought RT brushes yesterday. If I had known about the RT Tools 5X points which started  today at least  few days earlier. I wouldn't have gotten it yesterday and I would've waited for today to purchase with the point multiplier 😞  anyway thanks for posting  @RGbrown

[ClassicallyFab]

You could repurchase and then return the first ones @mezzotown88...

[mezzotown88]

@ClassicallyFab thanks but I'm too lazy to do that lol. Plus I can never have enough brushes and sponges 🙂 so I'm definately going to stock up some more of bold metals brushes,regular RT brushes and miracle sponges 🙂

[ClassicallyFab]

Haha! Excellent! @mezzotown88 Glad it's still a win.

[mezzotown88]

@ClassicallyFab anyway how did you get to Rookie II? What do I need to do to level up the status? do you know happen to know what's the highest status for these levels? I see veronica is at the very top- what's next after go getter? sorry for so many questions but I've been trying to figure out for myself how the level status works for few weeks now. Still have no clue 😞

[RGbrown]

@mezzotown88

It goes by participation in the forums...hearts, posts, reviews, gallery looks posted, etc. No one knows the formula though, and more than likely, some things count more than other things, so it's unlikely we'll ever nail it down for sure. 

Status just started working in the last week or so. We've got a thread going to try and track stats and see if maybe we can narrow some of the parameters down...everyone that helps gets us another data point closer. Feel free to join in!

https://community.sephora.com/t5/Rouge/Let-s-Figure-out-this-algorithm/td-p/2827975

ETA: there are four levels that we know of: rookie, rising star, go getter, boss. 

[mezzotown88]

@RGbrown Thanks. I just subscribed to the thread. I'm currently looking at people's stats and I think the levels go up by how many hearts they've received and posts they've written. I don't think the actual reviews on products count but I'm not sure I may be wrong...
