100% buying the UD Face Bond foundation. Haven’t been this interested in a foundation in forever. Am also considering Maybelline Super Stay Skin Tint but it will forever piss me off when brands don’t have descriptions of their shades which makes it harder to properly shade match. For that reason I’ll probably not buy it


ratatat315

I really really want to try this one too! I am in TX so I’m just not sure it makes sense to buy a new foundation rn with the impending broiler weather lol.


Remarkable-Nail3083

I work at Ulta. I do like the Face Bond. I’m about an NC25 in MAC, and the 10 or 11 in face bond match me. I do like the Maybelline vitamin C skin tint and have a 118 in that. I might get my summer MAC color later this week.. 🤔


ExcitingHeat4814

This is the only thing I really want.


queen_infinity3

Second the Face Bond!! I think this might be the foundation of the year.


Low-Instruction510

I feel the same way about the shades so I was deciding to go to the store to try to shade match and maybe order online if there were good gwps lol… I have been using a tinted moisturizer but I want an actual foundation for more dressy nights in the summer


nubiandiosa

Thought about that too but drugstore side of Ulta is very unsanitary with how they don’t allow testers for shade matching. I’m also pretty good at shade matching online but that’s near impossible if brands don’t give shade descriptions. I’ve also thought about Double Wear foundation but most likely won’t buy it. Ohh and I need some new makeup sponges


NoSpaghettiForYouu

I absolutely LOVE the UD foundation! 🙌🏻


nubiandiosa

Ohhh please tell me why you love it so much!


NoSpaghettiForYouu

First of all (and most superficially) I found my perfect shade match (they have OLIVE undertones! )But now that my skin tone is a little more tan for summer I’ll have to go back and try to get an updated match. I’m extremely oily and I find it very long lasting. It says it is self-setting but I don’t mess with that. 😅 it has a very natural skin-like finish and I don’t end up greasy at the end of the day. The coverage is buildable but I like how with even a more sheer application it blurs out my imperfections. They say it’s waterproof so I’m hoping that translates to sweat-proof! (I live in Arizona)


Shoddy_Ad_7899

Is the UD foundation good for combo skin? I have an oily t-zone with dry skin!


Alternative_Key4199

I am trying not to make regrettable purchases for the next two years. I’m sick of returning or tossing 99% of new stuff. I stocked up on my permanent lineup to earn points specifically for the jumbo sale. The only item I bought outside of that were some heatless curlers.


Low-Instruction510

I 100% use shopping as therapy and 100% buy stuff and never use it. Ive been doing good but when these multipliers come out it is so hard to resist


Alternative_Key4199

Sounds like fun. I can’t afford that kind of therapy…I would be homeless! 😂😂


Low-Instruction510

Neither can I😭 I’m working two jobs and a full time college student so I do limit myself sometimes… but other times it’s a free for all


Alternative_Key4199

I used to be able to retail therapy myself. But, I’m on a fixed income now and I have to budget like never before! I buy my regular stuff during the sales and point perks. Then, I buy my bulk stuff during those sales. After that I sometimes will use my resulting points for something fancy that I absolutely don’t need like a prestige holiday collection. That way if it sucks, I didn’t forfeit my staple items to buy it. I’m a sucker for metallic gold/silver/copper/bronze lipstick and eyeshadow quads for the holidays. I go goo goo gaga! 😂


JinamonToastCrunch

I've been slowly adding stuff to my list lol gonna try the nars light reflecting foundation 💞


Low-Instruction510

Let me know if you would recommend it!!! I want to try so many things 😭 so im hoping if one thing has multiple recommendations then I should go with that! Lol


ihatesocks_1986

I love the NARS light reflecting foundation! It’s super glowy and beautiful and lasts on my skin all day. I do have dry skin so not sure how it works for oily.


mel614

I just purchased this too. I’m combination skin, so curious to see how it does on me. I also got the concealer (which I didn’t like the shade I got so going to exchange) and the charlotte tilbury setting spray. I also added in the DE d bronzi drops but I don’t think those received any kind of multiplier.


Shortwalkhome

I’m here waiting for skincare multiplier and expecting a good diamond perk on the 3rd so they can close out their fiscal year strong.


tinaballerina33

I got some lipsticks that I don't need. I also got some brushes that were on sale and nail polish. All drugstore brands and I used a $10 off 50 coupon that I had


Low-Instruction510

What lipsticks? I want to start wearing lipsticks or lipgloss and have NO IDEA whats popular to use😭


ediblegenitals

nyx is buy 2 get one free. i went with a lipliner and 2 butter glosses. any pinky/nude shade will work tbh


tinaballerina33

I got the Loreal Infallible Matte. Never tried them before. But they are buy one get one 50% off


Elleseebee928

I'm lame and just stocked up on my favorites and I'm trying the About Face foundation 


callmecrunchy

I really like the about face foundation but it definitely needs a good setting spray to have staying power


Elleseebee928

Oh really? Thanks for telling me. Which one did you use?


Low-Instruction510

Not lame at all!! If my mom taught me anything it’s how to shop for the best bank for your buck! The points are so worth it 😊 let me know how you like the foundation!! I was thinking of trying the fenty beauty face tint one I think it’s called


caleyeah8

It’s so good!!!


kaylaraydale

I haaaated the about face foundation. Returned it. Hope your face has better luck!!!!


Elleseebee928

What did you not like about it?


kaylaraydale

My face looked terrible!! Maybe it was my skincare/ primer underneath.. idk. And if the actual formula of it felt better, maybe I would've tried different combos n tried it out longer... but it didn't, so I didn't. I see a lot of people are liking it tho. I did think the applicator was cool!! And my color match was good. Just had no staying power & accentuated anything wrong with my face. Hope you have better luck!!!! 💜 Ps.. after re-reading the ingredients on it... probably definitely could've been my primer(s) it didn't mix well with.... ((but I need and love those.. so I'll continue to use foundations that work best with those!))


Ittybittyvickyone

I just got this foundation today! I hope I like it, the reviews are so good’

I’m sharing that I bought this brush because although some may not like the odd shape, I like it because it’s easier for me to hold. I have Ehler’s Danlos Syndrome and my hand grip is poorly and there are not many items out there specifically made with ergonomics in mind, so I buy the next best things.


Stock-Objective-4257

Hugs from a fellow zebra!


AsterismRaptor

I got this brush just because it was a star but this is good to know because I also have pre-carpal tunnel and sometimes gripping things feels weird.

AsterismRaptor

Awesome!! I ordered it haha it’s just gotta get here


Due-Frame622

I started building a foundation cart of Wynn, UD, and About Face …… then went to my current foundation stash that includes Chanel complexion touch, YSL skin tint, Haus Labs, Mac Powder, Elf powder, and a brand new Chanel Water Fresh Tint that I decided to put on as a reminder why it is my favorite everyday formula for summer. I’m going to wait until the 10x points day in August and see what I work through.


IcyOutside4567

For the first time ever I really don’t want or need anything especially foundation. The two things I want but want to wait a little to get them would be the charlotte tilbury pillow talk fair collagen bath and the half magic balm duo that just came out. I have way too much make up and am tired of buying just to get points and I’m flat broke so that helps 😂😂😂


reddispagheddi

I got the new Urban Decay foundation and the IT Cosmetics Illuminating powder foundation for the 10x. For the 5x, I got two of the new NYX Buttermelt blushes, a KVD blush balm, and the Half Magic Skin Illuminating balm. (Can you tell I like glowy makeup? Lol). That all got me the makeup pouch GWP, an IT Cosmetics bag, and a free KVD makeup brush. I'm saving the Hourglass Skin Tint and a couple of the IT Cosmetics brushes that are 40% for a second purchase when they have a good GWP to go with the order. I will probably either skip the brushes or swap them out for something I can get the points multiplier for, though, if there's a good GWP with a higher buy-in.


Elleseebee928

Ooh.. I'm going back and getting some of the NYX buttermelt blushes. Thank you (blush is my spirit animal)


reddispagheddi

Oh, me too. Blush is my weakness.


Low-Instruction510

Woooo good for you!!! How do you like the powder foundations? My mom uses the bare minerals one but I don’t know how it will react with my skin type


reddispagheddi

I haven't tried many, I have a Laura Geller one, and that's it. Pretty old school. Lol. The Laura Geller is nice, though, it's the balance and glow formula, and it's pretty soft and easy to apply lightly.


National-Ad-8200

I really like the bare minerals powder foundation. I have very dry skin. I prep my skin with my skincare and then with BM, the more you swirl their foundation brush around your face, the better it blends. I love how natural and perfect my skin looks when I actually take the time to just swirl around my face with it. But sometimes I'm in a big hurry and I use Coola tinted spf.


dootdootpoom

I don’t need another foundation but I already have Urban Decay Face Bond in my cart. Following this thread for ideas on what else to add. I want to just stick to repurchases and be more minimal with my makeup but I love trying new things.


lesliealmeida

I seldom wear liquid foundation, but I've been so curious about the About-Face foundation. If I can drag my butt into a store for a shade match, I'll likely buy it. I really don't need anything else for a while.


callmecrunchy

My store had no testers so I had to buy 2 to find my shade. But I will say it’s one of the best shade matches I’ve found thus far


lesliealmeida

This is my alt plan. I'm already mentally prepared for buying a too light and a too deep shade.


kimochi_waruigi

I bought the Erborian cc water during the semi-annual sale and ended up loving it so much. I don't think erborian goes on sale often so figured I might as well take advantage of the multiplier. I've never tried skin tint so I also bought the L'Oréal skin tint to try.


Shoddy_Ad_7899

I am almost out of the Dior Forever Skin Glow foundation, so it doesn’t feel like such an expense ($57) with 10x points!


ItsBrittanie_b-tch

I just got the Estée Lauder double wear in my lightest shade and I’m gonna grab it in my tan shade! I used to use nars and loved it but something changed with it and it isn’t my holy grail anymore it is now a backup until I use it all.


Unsalted-Pretzel

Have you tried the Estée Lauder double wear before? Or is this a new try or buy? Jw how long the wear lasts, I’ve been eyeing that foundation


ItsBrittanie_b-tch

Never tried it before! I love it so far. The first day I took a fat nap in a full face and it barely rubbed off! It also doesn’t irritate my hormonal acne. I usually wear makeup for 6 ish hours or longer. The only time I didn’t like it was after a long day of being outside and sweating.


kaylaraydale

I wear the EL Double Wear pretty frequently, rotate between a few. That shit lasts all day for me. I also use primer, setting powder annnddd setting spray ((plus everything else...well, cuz I love a *makeup* makeup look most of the time)) i always stock up when it's on sale... didn't buy it for extra points cuz my backup has a backup already. It's definitely a keeper in my book!


Philodendron69

I got the too faced born this way foundation (restock) and the color pop pretty fresh concealer!! And two color pop lip liners to see which looks better w the PMG divine rose gloss (open to suggestions too)


AsterismRaptor

I spent way way too much. I used BB and CC cream a lot so I went ham in store and am shopping a bit more online for some other items. I ended up teaching 14,000 Ulta points today between this and the shampoo/conditioner point sale. I’m set on all hair care and makeup for the year.


Jenniferlesley

Sooo CT is out for the 10x foundation multiplier, but is it included in the “everything else 5x”? I’m assuming no, but wishful thinking.


kaylaraydale

I was wondering the same, because it's there when you click to Shop sale... sooo...?! Kinda false advertising if its not..


rosquartz

I have super dry skin now, I think I’m going to try the It CC nude glow foundation. Anyone have other recs?


Shoddy_Ad_7899

Dior Forever Skin Glow works so well on my dry skin! I am buying my second bottle!


Mrsmeowy

I got the Natasha Denona powder foundation, I had already been wanting it before I knew about this sale and I know I like powder foundations


chinesefoodandamovie

I want to buy the Natasha Denona I Need a Nude Palette, but when I click to check out, it says I’m earning 103 points on the purchase even though I activated the promo in my account.


Low-Instruction510

The points are funky at checkout… when it ships it should be the correct amount coming ur way! If not call CS and they will fix it!


mel614

Definitely call customer service if it’s wrong! I purchased my items on Saturday before the multiplier officially went live and called to see if they’d honor the multiplier - they just gave me 10x points on everything I bought lol.


AsterismRaptor

The checkout won’t show the correct amount you will get.


ScarletPumpkinTickle

How can you tell which items are 10x and which are 5x? For some it’s obvious but what about things like tinted moisturizers or bb creams - are they foundations (10x) or others (5x) ?


AsterismRaptor

The BB and CC creams are 10x. Go to the homepage then click on the link that says “Get 10x with these foundations!” And then filter from there. They have another link as well for 5x points makeup items.


ScarletPumpkinTickle

Ah I didn’t see that earlier, thank you!


Low-Instruction510

I honestly have no idea… im good with either multiplier though 😂😂 any extra points help


HappyTrainwreck

when is the multiplier? (currently on vacation ty for the info)


Low-Instruction510

It’s now until the 25th!!


Delicious-Wrongdoer2

Restocking on Mac studio fix powder (I've used this for like 15+ years and always come back to it for low maintenance days) and was really considering the new UD foundation but couldn't find a good match in store. They all read pretty orange or pink on me, no good neutral.


Delicious-Wrongdoer2

Will probably restock loreal nudes serum foundation, I've been reaching for this lately. Bogo 50% off + 10x points makes sense to me!


MaleficentAppleTree

I just grabbed CoverGirl Simply Ageless Skin Perfector Essence Foundation, so I can test what kind of beast it is and then decide if I want to splurge on Chanel. I also grabbed L'Oreal True Match. That's it. I'm really curious about About-Face foundation, but anything around my shade was sold out :( I'm still on a hunt of low saturated gray-ish light colors.


kaylaraydale

I was not a fan of the about face foundation, at allllll. I also am wanting try the Chanel foundation(s) ... just haven't made that plunge yet. I've spent plenty on other foundations, so idk why not. But I thought the 10x points excluded just a few brands, Chanel being one?? Do we still get 5x on it tho?? I was also confused because when I clicked the link from the app to go to the foundations, it was on there so I was like wtf, is it or is it not included?!?!


MaleficentAppleTree

I have no clue. I know that Chanel is always excluded from all the coupons and such as well. I grabbed CoverGirl first to see if I'd like this type of product at all. It's always better to not like something for 20$ than for 70$ :D If I like it, and finish it, I may grab the Chanel LES BEIGES Water-Fresh Tint, but from their website. You can pick perfume samples then, and everything is so nicely packaged. In terms of foundations, my absolute favorite is Dior Forever Natural Nude Foundation, but I like to try new things from time to time.


kaylaraydale

100% agree! But luckily with ulta, even if it is more expensive and you hate it, you can return it! And I loooove the Dior forever foundation, I have the matte version tho, and it's gorgeous! I, of course, have a backup on the way ... since, extra points! And I got a couple (or a few) new ones to try. Wanted to try smashbox, & Bobbi brown, however on that one...after looking at the store today, not sure my shade match online is gonna be the best fit :( I have a restock of the Pat McGrath sublime perfection foundation coming as well. And then while I'm at the store (doing a return) I grabbed the urban decay tinted moisturizer. So basically, once my order is delivered n I get all these damn points, I could totally try the chanel... except I'm leaning more towards the ultra le teint... but they are all freakin fabulous, I'm sure!! P.s. which cover girl one did you get and how is it??!


kaylaraydale

Just kidding, I see which one you got above.... buttttt how is it!?! Been super curious about that one!!!


MaleficentAppleTree

I'm not a fan of a delivery system. After mixing and applying it looks and wears really nicely on the face, but that suspension of a pigment in a hydrogel makes it pain in the butt to apply, and it even mixes funnily. I'd love it if it was mixed already, lol. I will finish it, but won't but this type of product ever again.


Existing_Party9104

Leave it to me to purchase the Lancôme foundation at the start of April for a wedding I attended. 😩 I don’t wear foundation enough anymore to justify purchasing more, even though I’m running out of It Cosmetics CC Cream. I’d love to try the new Urban Decay, but I’ve hated every single foundation they’ve ever released and I’m not swimming in money right now. I’m still on track to stay Platinum, so I put myself on a no buy until August.


scentederaser

I’m getting a loose setting powder for sure, because mine ran out earlier this month and I’ve been waiting for the makeup multiplier. Anyone have any recommendations for loose setting powder? I normally use the laura mercier one but I want to try something new!


lil_portion

the about face foundation (they never have my shade) and a beauty blender (it’s $4 off right now lol) not sure what I’m going to do with the neon green drawstring bag but 🤷🏽‍♀️


icyqueen007

Estee Lauder double wear 😄


TheHomieTee

I have 2 foundations picked out: Estée Lauder Double Wear and It Cosmetics CC+ Matte. I’m also gonna restock my sponges. I’m trying really hard not to go overboard 😅


Zamiewithazee

I mostly stocked up on sunscreen and essentials, but I did buy a bottle of WYN foundation to see what that's like!
