    NOTES:
    1. Since I just had to go and bring up benzene, here’s a big disclaimer that I have the report but haven’t had the time to read it (it is, indeed, Ulta’s fault). Seems some of my favorite creators are saying it’s a dud, so there may be nothing to worry about at all.
    2. Sephora is copying Ulta’s homework again. And good, I’m glad they are, as that ANR duo was sold out before I even woke up (I am absolutely not losing sleep for this sale, no ma’am.) Sephora typically switches their sale over between 5-6 AM EST vs Ulta’s 1 AM EST. Worth checking if you’re more on my schedule than Ulta’s late night schedule.
    Ok that’s all I have to add, thanks for tuning in and hope you all enjoy shopping if you’re shopping this sale, or stay strong if you’re on a low/no buy!

      The benzene thing sounds like the sunscreen, dry shampoo and now BP thing. I'm wondering if Lab Muffin is going to address it but yes, what I've seen some creators address so far, is that the study is unsurprisingly, flawed.

    You did such an awesome job explaining this Ulta sale, but it’s still super random and I feel a migraine coming on. Yes, that was a run-on sentence. For some reason, insurance only covers nine migraine pills a month, so I am not feeling warm and fuzzy about Ulta this morning. ❤

    • @pamorama

    I placed an online order for the Billie Eilish perfume ($36 for 3.4oz, amazing), a Fenty contour stick and some press -on nails at about 3am on Saturday. It was delivered at about noon on Sunday. People complain about Lasership, but I love it.

  • @Shtina25
    @Shtina25 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Thanks for the breakdown and better graphics! I also appreciated your "dont give into the hype" caveat about buying too much. This weekly release format is not helpful when you're trying to stick to a budget. That being said, I have 1850 points and am starting to get that haul glimmer in my eyes. 😂

    • @AliceintheRabbitHole
      @AliceintheRabbitHole  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You could do a nice 1000 points haul worth a $100 “value” ($50 at 50% off). that and the 2000 points level give you the most bang for your buck 😁

    • @Shtina25
      @Shtina25 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Good call! And I just got a $10 off $50 coupon. *Starts trying to build a $60 cart of 50% off items*
      Of course, this would be easier if I knew the whole sale schedule. 😢

  • @Criticalbeauty411
    @Criticalbeauty411 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    I definitely think the worst part about this change is not being able to choose between products from week to week. I definitely used to want at least two different moisturizers for example. I might be annoyed enough that I’ll actually be shopping less. I’ll be so interested to see how this works for Ulta and if they keep this format for the next sale!
    I hope next week has less haircare 😅😂

    • @AliceintheRabbitHole
      @AliceintheRabbitHole  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I’m wondering that as well. I feel some of us will buy less out of annoyance/frustration, but I do think some folks will buy a lot more. It will be interesting to see how many returns this leads to!

    Alice- you are amazing 💗 Thank you for all of your efforts and your honest reviews. I always rely on your channel when I have skincare questions I need answered 💗 you are the one who got me to really use Ulta!
    What happened with Anastasia BH?
    And PS- my mother is THAT PERSON. She has had skin cancer removed from her forehead a few years ago- one of the reasons I got into skincare as a 22 year old. I have placed COUNTLESS SPFS everywhere on her counter- I have done everything- given her all different types, chemical and mineral, US and Korean…
    and she just won’t wear it! I don’t understand!!! She rolls her eyes and gets angry when I push her to wear them and whenever I apply own 🙈😭

      The ABH story is hard to briefly explain. I’d recommend Smokey glow’s video on the topic (it leads to personal choice at the end of the day, I’d say)

    lol I use MAC Paint Pots every day. Started with Painterly - I bought it in the Ulta sale a few years ago (I couldn’t afford it back when it was viral, but always wanted it). I use it as a base. In the last Ulta sale I bought Groundwork, and one of my go-to quick eyeshadow looks is Groundwork up to the crease (I have hooded eyes) and on my lower lash line and a shimmery Sephora liquid eyeshadow on the lid. Stays crease-free for such a long time!!!

      And I’ve repurposed a lot of products to my body as well, yup! Most products that were too strong for my face can still be used on my body, though I have to be a little more careful about my chest area

      @AliceintheRabbitHole it does thank you. Most heavily scented things give me headaches and burn my face. Just walking into Sephora, Ulta, BB&B, Lush ect is an instant headache. I still go, I just shove Vasaline up my nose first. Works great. Sometimes add a super small drop of clove or peppermint depending on my mood. But it works on its own.
      As for showering and body care, most products with a heavy floral scent are OUT! Adding hot water to that scent, trapped inside the shower with me......ugh so viciously unpleasant. Lmao shivers.

    Hello Alice 😄 I am in Canada - so no Ulta shopping for me, but I do enjoy watching your Ulta videos. I do have to mention though, I have tried some products from Beekman 1802 - they started off as a small brand on the home shopping channels (HSN in the US and in Canada we have TSC) - on our home shopping channel is where I was first introduced to them. Long story, long - I also had some irritation to a few of their products, but one of the products that I really do love from them is the Milk Shake Hyaluronic Acid & Squalene facial toner mist (this is very nice). Just as a side note - I am a skincare fan and don't wear makeup - and if any, I am a lover of lippies and mascarar (or falsies).

      I saw people saying that but I doubted it from day one. It’s not really Ulta’s sale entirely, as the brands make the determination on pricing (so for example, Estée Lauder told brands: we are permitting you to sell ANR at 50% off today). That’s the catch, it’s not exclusive. Sephora, Nordstrom, anyone can also match that price.
      And go figure, Sephora copied it!

    Hi Alice! I’m super new to the Ulta sales and realized Sephora also put all of their available items from this set on 50% sale today, too. Is that normal? Do these sales come from the brands (Estee Lauder, ABH, Tula, etc.), or does Sephora just do this to try to undercut Ulta? I’ve just never noticed this “One Day 50% Sale” on the Sephora app before, but maybe that’s just me! Thanks for your insights so I can shop this sale well 🥰

      It’s customer service complaints. In fairness, I’ve never had an issue (actually had pretty quick shipping for this past BFCM!), but it seems a lot of people have had issues. Might be best to buy from Sephora for the time being; alternatively, now that the attention is on them, maybe they’ll step up their CS. I’m hoping for that!!

      I know for a fact that there are “influencers” who buy entire collections, swatch them, and return every bit of it. Those people ARE getting banned from returns. To which I say good.
      In contrast, returning a few products that didn’t work out? Probably just fine.

Im in my 40’s and want to upgrade from my beauty of joseon ginseng water as my hydrating am step. The Chogongjin Sosaeong toner (150ml) I can get for $40 AU and the Donginbi 1899 single essence EX (120ml) is $110 AU - should I bite the bullet for the Donginbi- it would be my most expensive step but I know 120ml will last me a long time but it just feels like such a huge jump and not sure if I’ll get 3x the benefit.

I can only get minis in sets from Yesstyle unfortunately and they will be over $200.
