Ulta Beauty

i love ulta!!! there selection of makeup and hair products and face products is insane and i love that they carry everything from stuff you can get at drug stores to high end products!!!
i am curious if anyone has ever used there salon for a hair cut and style???
im in desperate need of a hair cut and a change and my old hairstylist moved so i do not know where to go because my old hairstylist is the only person who had cut my hair since i was 14 and im 33 now!

I always take my kid and myself here for a facial. Chrissy is amazing. The girl knows skin care! And she doesn’t try to sell you anything which is a big plus. She gets a 5 star.
What doesn’t get a 5 star is the little cubby hole they gave her for facials. Seriously, there’s no door, people can just peak in.
Laurie, I believe she’s one of the managers, is also fantastic. Always say hi when you walk into the place.
I do Ulta. The fact that your rewards comes in cash that you spend at the store is amazeballs. That alone makes me visit Ulta more than Sephora.

So frustrating! I went I for the 2 holiday gift sets I wanted– they didn’t have either of them. When I finally found something else they wouldn’t honor their coupon «it is a premier product». Sephora you got he back!!!

I have been in this store a few times for facials and I have to say it is one of the best experiences for not a lot of money. There are multiple facial options from fast a easy to a solid hour. The facial massage was amazing and my skin is in great shape plus she gets your neck and chest too which some chain places don’t do. The esthetician (Christy) really tries to make you feel comfortable and does a good job.
It would be 5 stars but.
I don’t like that the area where the facials are done is basically open to the store. Changing is an interesting experience so wear a tube top or tank top. It is uncomfortable knowing that someone could walk around the corner and basically look at you while you lay there although I don’t think anyone would be that rude. It would be nice if they completely separated the facial area.

I don’t ever have an issue with what I am looking for here. But i don’t like how the coupons you get are useless on practically 90% of the store. They don’t qualify on any of the prestige brands, which is everything I like.
I have been to their salon and esthetician too. I just had my hair cut by Erin, she took the time to listen to me and I was over all very happy with the end results. The facials are a little awkward. I tried them out only because a friend had recommended them. And they seem to always have openings. They have you wear the velcroed gown but you have to walk around the corner to the bathroom to change, in the store full of people. Thankfully they aren’t terribly busy in the back by the restrooms but it’s not always just women in the store. The area where you have your facial done isn’t fully closed off from the other customers either. So someone shopping the dermalogica line can in fact walk in on you. I’m probably not going to go back for anymore facials but I will go back to Erin for my future hair cuts.

I’m decidedly a fan of the retail aspect of Ulta – I haven’t tried their hair/​makeup services.
What I like is that they have EVERYTHING. Go to your local drugstore and you’re faced with a plethora of the big name/​inexpensive brand choices. Go to other beauty supply stores and you have your pick of high end beauty merchandise. Here? You have it all. This, I love, because my favorite mascara just happens to be one that can be found almost anywhere. My favorite tinted moisturizer, on the other hand, is a more exclusive brand of organic makeup that can be difficult to find. I like being able to get both in one place. It’s a one-​stop-​shop for all your beauty/​makeup/​hair necessities.
I’m a big fan of their Ulta brand liquid hand soap (I haven’t purchased a scent that hasn’t proved to be fabulous). Around the holidays, they have a wonderful supply of gift ideas that are sure to stuff your stockings full of loveliness. They carry Bare Mineral products (yes!). And, have an impressive array of perfumes in their perfume section.
The service is a bit spotty and I recommend always checking to make sure you received the sale price you were expecting on all your items before leaving. It’s not like it’s a HUGE problem, but has happened enough for me to always check.
Get to it!

Had my makeup done and was not impressed. My makeup artist flitted around the store putting various samples of product on my face. I felt like she was trying to sell me on all the different products. Being in a hurry I didn’t have time to listen to why this foundation and that blush were so amazing. The application of my makeup was horrendous, I literally cried when she showed me the finished product. Most of the makeup had to be removed afterwards because it was so heavy and thick, I could not go to my event looking the way I did. I was incredibly disappointed for what I paid and I will never go back there to get my makeup done.
