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.

RE: the UD shadow singles on the 23rd...  Do you all think it will just be select shades or will it be all of them? 

[Anonymous]

A few years ago they were platinum only deal, and they had all the shades on sale. They also ran out of many colors very fast. Will have to see how it is this year @quspork

[RGbrown]

@quspork

Hard to say...it doesn't say "select", so hopefully it should be all of them...but, since the recent UD sales for various lipsticks just included certain colors, "select" could still be a possibility. 

Since this is a one day only deal, I'm kinda leaning towards all of them being included though.

[quspork]

That's pretty much what I've been going between, @RGbrown. I wouldn't be surprised at all if it's just select colors given the recent sales on the lip pencils and such, but it would be nice if it included all of them. I'll probably make a list of ones that I need to replace or just really want and cross my fingers for the best! 

[jbean90]

oh god.  there are like five days i'm going to have to go by ulta on the way home.  oh well 

[RGbrown]

Some repeats, but some new additions too...looks like a nicer mix than the last one, to me at least. I see quite a few temptations that I need to narrow down 😏

[Kim888]

There are definitely some interesting looking items here - I think the only thing I'm really planning to take advantage of though is the Mario Bedescu as there were a couple of things I had on my favorites list to try. 

[ohheyitscindyk]

Just got 5x points on NYX, through the 17th 🙂

Also, my local Ulta had this flyer up with a list of upcoming events:

[RGbrown]

Half of those items are safe-bet guesses anyways, since they're included seemingly every time lol. 😛 Thanks @ohheyitscindyk!!

[ohheyitscindyk]

@RGbrown So true, I got so excited & then I was like ehh lol.

[Bliss1912]

The Urban Decay Kristen Leanne Palettes are 1/2 off on Ulta!

Oh and the Spellbound lipstick too!

[Anonymous]

It's also on sale direct at UD. And there's no minimum purchase for free shipping with them. 

[RGbrown]

@Anonymous

According to their Beauty Junkies info page, only Freak level (have to spend $200 to reach this) and up get free shipping with no min. Below that, I believe the FS minimum is $50.

On the other hand, Macy's offers free shipping with any beauty purchase, and has this half off as well (and it's also at Nordstrom and Belk, though I don't know their shipping policies off the top of my head).

[Anonymous]

I have the middle one and I get free shipping. As long as you have an account with them they give you free shipping. 

[RGbrown]

@Anonymous

They used to give free shipping to all levels, but not anymore. Level 1 has to spend $50 while levels 2 and 3 get it with no minimum. 

[PaletteAddict99]

I like Belk @RGbrown free shipping on beauty and no sales tax for CA 🙂

[RGbrown]

@PaletteAddict99 Sweet! Wish I had a no-tax option...everyone charges it here (even though we don't even have a Nordstrom grrrrr)

[Loretta55]

Wow that was quick! I thought it was released only a month ago.

[RGbrown]

@Loretta55

This collection came out in early January, so we're right on the two-months-to-clearance target I had in my head 😄

I'm sad this is sold out at UD (the bright palette at least; didn't check the rest)...was hoping to use a kickback to get it for "free". Now I have to debate spending real money at Ulta, and I'm not sure I want to. 😋

[BrwnSugaG]

Happened to see this before I went to sleep: there's also a step up of a cosmetic bag if you spend $60. ETA: pic of step up
