Ulta is the only beauty store that is less than 15 minutes away from my house, so of course this is the place that I go to when I don't want to drive 30 minutes to the Strip. They have brands here (i.e., Lorac and Mally Beauty) that are exclusive to Ulta - which I love btw. And I love that they have a rewards card that you can sign up for!
What I don't like about Ulta is their customer service, and the fact that they seem to be out of A LOT of products. I don't know why or how, but obviously that type of stuff is NOT good for business. It's really freakin' frustrating to be the only beauty store in NW Vegas and out of products. They also don't really go up to you and ask if you need help. I spent 20 minutes one time just looking for someone to help me! And when they did, all they did was talk smack about MAC Cosmetics. I don't care if you're trying to "help", but you DO NOT talk crap about other makeup brands just to get your sales up. That was unappreciated and unprofessional. Want to recommend me to a great makeup foundation or whatever? Then tell me what it is, but do NOT start talking trash about other makeup brands.
There are a lot of things I don't like about Ulta, but I guess I'm just going to have to suck it up.
