Ulta Beauty Weekly Ad This Week

The Ulta Beauty weekly ad is really a six-week book

Here's something that surprises people. The Ulta Beauty edition we hold isn't a one-week flyer at all. It's titled Ulta Beauty Weekly Ad (10/11 - 11/21 2026), it begins Sunday, October 11, runs to November 21, and it's a hefty 100 pages. So think of it as a long-run beauty book, handy when you want to browse brands, shades and gift ideas without opening an app. Our archive has no regular weekday pattern for Ulta yet, so rely on the printed dates.

Beauty shoppers usually compare a few stores, so keep these close: the health and beauty weekly ads hub, the CVS Pharmacy weekly ad and the Walgreens weekly ad. Or go back to the US weekly ads hub for every retailer.

What Ulta Beauty is

Ulta is a beauty retailer based in Bolingbrook, Illinois. Per Wikipedia, it was founded in 1990 as Ulta3 by Richard George and Terry Hanson, and the first store opened that October in Lombard, Illinois. As of January 31, 2026 the company ran 1,505 Ulta Beauty stores in the US, plus 86 Space NK stores in the UK and Ireland. The shelves mix prestige and drugstore labels, including MAC Cosmetics, Kylie Cosmetics and ColourPop, and the company has its own brand too.

Many locations also have a salon. Wikipedia says nearly every store features a full-service one, so "does Ulta do haircuts" has a simple answer: usually, yes, though you should book through the official channels. One more fact for gift shoppers: Target began selling Ulta products in August 2021, and the two companies announced in August 2025 that the partnership would end in August 2026.

The company behind the shelves

Kecia Steelman became CEO in January 2025, taking over from Dave Kimbell, and Wikipedia reports about 66,800 employees in 2026. Ulta listed on NASDAQ in 2007 and has since grown beyond US borders: a joint venture with Grupo Axo covers Mexico, a franchise partnership with Alshaya Group covers the Middle East, and the first non-US store opened in Kuwait in 2025. For a shopper in the States, none of that changes the weekly routine, but it explains why you may see the brand pop up in travel stories and mall directories alike.

Ultamate Rewards: points, birthday gift, tiers

The program searches turn up most are about Ultamate Rewards and the credit card. Store opening hours, holiday schedules, and loyalty participation can vary by specific branch location and municipal regulations. Local branch postings and shop-front signage give the schedule that actually applies to you. Joining is free with an email address, and a 2019 Refinery29 piece says members get a birthday gift at every spending tier. Third-party breakdowns agree on one redemption chart: 100 points is worth three dollars off, going up to 2,000 points for 125 dollars off. They disagree about the spending cutoffs for the higher tiers, so look at your own account.

• Use your rewards number or phone at checkout so purchases count.
• Check the sale dates printed inside the ad pages.

Ulta return policy: the 60-day question

Plenty of people search about returning foundation, makeup and perfume. A SuperMoney guide last updated April 3, 2024 says Ulta takes returns within 60 days with a receipt or order confirmation, and that products should be new or gently used. It adds that without proof of purchase you might get store credit at the lowest recent sale price, and members can use their purchase history instead of a receipt. Opened items and some categories like clearance, personalized or final-sale items may be restricted. Treat that as a summary. Ulta's own guest services page is the real rulebook.

Does Ulta price match?

This one keeps appearing in search suggestions. A summary of third-party sources says Ulta does not match competitor prices, though staff may sometimes match the current Ulta.com price in a store at their discretion. That isn't an official statement, so don't count on it. If an ad price matters to you, show the ad page to a cashier and ask politely.

Hours, Sundays and the holidays

Shoppers type "is Ulta Beauty open on Sundays" and "Ulta Beauty hours Labor Day" a lot. The store locator is your friend, and the salon may keep different hours from the sales floor.
