Ulta almost always has more than one coupon code floating around, and picking the wrong one can leave money on the table. The table below lines up the codes trackers are reporting this week so you can match one to your cart instead of guessing.
The codes, compared
| Code | What it gives | Best for | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|---|
| SAVE20 | 20% off almost everything | Mixed baskets of makeup, skincare, and haircare | Reportedly excludes fragrance and CHANEL; expiry dates vary by tracker |
| MEMBERSAVINGS | Up to 20% off: members save 10%, Platinum 15%, Diamond 20% | Rewards members who want a tiered discount | Your tier decides the final number |
| SCORE | 20% off one item, including prestige beauty and fragrance | One pricey item, like a premium serum or fragrance | Applies to a single item only |
| STYLE20 | 20% off hair tools as a member | Dyson, Shark Beauty, and other styling tools | Members only; tools category only |
| FRAG15 | 15% off fragrance | Perfume and cologne restocks | Chanel products are excluded |
Codes change fast. Trackers list different expiry dates for the same code, so treat the table as a starting point and read the terms on Ulta’s own checkout page before you pay.
How to pick in 30 seconds
Buying several things across categories? Start with SAVE20, since it is reported to cover almost everything. Shopping as a rewards member and happy with a smaller cut? MEMBERSAVINGS may be the safer match. Splurging on one high-ticket item? SCORE is built for exactly that. Stocking up on perfume? FRAG15 beats a sitewide code that excludes fragrance anyway.
Ultamate Rewards: the other half of your savings
This is the part most coupon hunters underuse. Ultamate Rewards is free to join, and you earn 1 point for every dollar you spend, in store and online. Platinum members earn 1.25 points per dollar, and Diamond members earn 1.5, with points that do not expire while the tier is held.
Points turn into real discounts on a future order: 100 points knock $3 off, 250 points knock $8 off, 500 points knock $17.50 off, 750 points knock $30 off, 1,000 points knock $50 off, and 2,000 points knock $125 off. Trackers note that you can apply a promo code at checkout and still earn points on the same transaction, so the code discount and the points stack in your favor over time. Points typically expire a year after they are earned for base members, so cashing them in beats letting them sit.
How to use a code at checkout
- Shop at ulta.com and add your items to the bag.
- Sign in to your Ultamate Rewards account so the purchase earns points.
- Go to checkout and find the promo code box.
- Paste the code exactly as shown (codes are case sensitive) and hit apply.
- Check that the discount shows in your order summary before paying.
Before you paste a code
Ulta usually allows one promo code per order, so if a second code will not apply, that is normal and not a glitch. Some codes skip prestige brands or new releases, and fragrance is a common exclusion, which is why a fragrance-specific code like FRAG15 exists. Many Ulta codes also work on top of existing sale prices, so it is worth trying a code even on marked-down items. If a code fails, check the minimum spend, the category limits, and whether you already used a single-use code on an earlier order.
How we check deals: we compare what several independent deal trackers list within the same week and keep a code only when at least two of them show it as working. Read our full method at how-i-check-deals.
Ulta coupon FAQs
Q. Can I use a promo code and still earn Ultamate Rewards points?
A. Yes, according to deal trackers. Apply the code at checkout while signed in, and the purchase still earns points toward your next discount.
Q. Do Ultamate Rewards points expire?
A. For base members, points generally expire about a year after they are earned. Platinum and Diamond members keep their points as long as they hold the tier.
Q. Do Ulta codes work on prestige brands?
A. It depends on the code. SCORE is reported to cover prestige beauty and fragrance on one item, while broader codes like SAVE20 are reported to exclude fragrance and CHANEL. Always read the exclusions.
Q. Can I use two coupon codes on one Ulta order?
A. Usually not. Ulta typically accepts one promo code per transaction, so pick the code that saves the most on your particular cart.
Q. Is there a free shipping threshold at Ulta?
A. Standard free shipping kicks in on orders of $35 or more. Below that, shipping fees apply, though in-store pickup is free where available.
