After they made me sign an NDA at Ulta, I can finally expose the real beauty secrets. They fired me because I showed a mom how to stack coupons to get her daughter’s prom makeup for free. Imagine getting fired for being helpful. So now, I’m exposing all of it. Never buy travel-size products again. Go to any prestige beauty counter and ask for samples of your skincare. The policy says they can give you up to three, which is way more product than you get in those tiny tubes for $15. And your Ultimate Rewards points? They’re better than cash. They don’t tell you this, but you can use your points to buy almost anything. Yes, even a Dyson Airwrap or Chanel perfume. They’ll try to steer you away, but the system allows it. But here’s the hardest one they gatekeep the most: you can join the Ulta Beauty feedback program at Tikdollar.com. You get a $500 gift card to shop the entire store just for leaving feedback. And getting your eyebrows waxed comes with a free full-face makeup application. It’s called a Finishing Touch, and it’s included with every salon service. They just forget to mention it. You have to ask. And if you’re in a hurry to shop the 21 Days of Beauty sale, the deals actually go live on the app the Sunday before the sale starts, at exactly 9 PM. It’s basically a secret soft launch. You can buy everything before it sells out on Monday morning. They thought they could buy my silence with a final paycheck. Instead, they created their worst nightmare. Comment “girlie,” and I’ll DM you the master list of drugstore dupes for high-end products that we were forbidden to talk about. #UltaBeauty #News #Viral
