My mom came with high expectations form her previous experiences but left... empty handed... I didn't like the attitude of the staff this time. Un-interested/motivated to sale.

It was such a fantastic experience from start to finish. I also want to give a huge shoutout to the front desk team. The receptionist was so warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind. She made the entire check-in process easy and set the tone for an amazing visit. If you're considering cosmetic treatments, I highly recommend La Jolla Cosmetic. Their professionalism, expertise, and outstanding customer service truly set them apart. RECOMMEND! RECOMMEND! RECOMMEND!

Extremely disappointed and honestly alarmed by my experience here.

Instead of addressing this, staff pushed me to book a follow-up treatment, insisting the results would "improve" with another session. Each session left my skin in worse condition than the last. If you're considering a laser facial procedure, do your research first and confirm you're being treated by a board-certified dermatologist -- not just spa staff operating the equipment. I wish I had. The expert at La Jolla Cosmetic Medial Spa has no clue what she is doing.

She also reminded me to pick up my birthday gift, which I had completely forgotten about, and I really appreciated that extra thoughtfulness! Customer service like hers makes all the difference. Thank you, Sarah Beth, for going above and beyond and making my visit such a great experience!

I was an Estee Lauder user for years, but the products just got a bit too harsh for me. If you wait for the right time, you get some really awesome deals. The promo to wait for is their 4 for $40 as in 4 full size products!!! I believe they only have the deal twice a year, so you have to look out for it. During other times I've stopped in and I've gotten full size eye shadows, blushes, mascara, eye liners for $5! Again, be on the lookout. The customer service is a hit and miss here. Sometimes they care and other times they don't. Some piece of advice, however, know what you want and get out...

The stuff on the front table is usually 50% off and you get a discount on top of that if you are a AAA member. Not only that but if you make a purchase of a certain amount, you can get something for free. The last time I was in the store, I made a $50 purchase and was able to take home a lancome palette for free, that was worth $50!! I can't remember all the products that they have, but off the top of my head I have seen Urban Decay, Lancome, Khiels, YSL, Clarasonic, and many many more. Some of the products do rotate out though so if you see any YSL lipsticks, stock up, because they may not be in stock the next time you visit. The only downside is that they don't have a facebook page or website to notify you of upcoming events or discount. There actually is a facebook page, but it hasn't been updated in a long time. Even a mailing list would be great! But anyways, this is such a great store to try out box sets full of samples and deluxe size items for a lower price. You can definitely stock up on prezzies here for birthdays and holidays. The store also carries fragrance sets as well.

Some of the staff didn't really think the brand was that good. I totally understand if brand doesn't work for them, but my heart was so set on it so I kind of got bummed. I still wanted to buy the brand, but I felt embarrassed to buy it because they had all said negative things about it. I decided to give the store one more try and Ruben made it all better! Such a sweet person and he was so helpful. Definitely changed my experience at the store. He was so patient with me and helped me find exactly what I needed. If you need anything you go to Ruben! He will take care of you.

This is the Ulta I usually shop at as its closest to me. I was in for a Beauty steals deal on…read moreRedkin. There was one left at the front of the store. I wandered around a bit looking at other items. I wanted to see if there was a tester so I could feel the consistency of the Redken gloss I was about to buy. I know the store pretty well, so I knew where it was and there wasn't a tester. It must've been a popular deal because there weren't any more left. I didn't see sales people on the floor at all so there's no one I could ask any questions to. Luckily, I got what I needed and went to the checkout. I had recently found a very, very old gift card that I had. So old that you couldn't even check the balance anymore. I asked the girls if I could use it and they said yes they never expire, after checking it only had $2.70 on it. They were really nice about helping me. I also had another gift card I used to pay with and again they were just super helpful and kind. The service here has been hit or miss in the past. I've had some fantastic sales people and I've had some not so fantastic ones so it was nice to have the girls at the checkout be so happy and willing to help. I'm glad this is my store because it's better than a lot of the other ones I've been to. I'll will for sure keep coming back.

My niece turned four recently and wanted to get hair tinsel for her birthday party. She asked my…read moresisters and I to also get hair tinsel with her. I had no idea that Ulta offered the service of put tinsel in your hair and for such a good deal. It's $15 for 15 strands and the whole process took around 10 minutes a person. My niece chose purple which looked so cute and I decided on gold. Such a fun experience and made my niece's day! Fun fact I learned while being there: specific Ulta locations host birthday parties and the one at the forum is one of them. We saw a little girls birthday party and it was so cute.

Ive been going here for years with my mom and now I'm finally able to go on my own.

He is a nice person! $36 plus taxes for the refill since I brought my own empty bottle. Also learned so much about how Tubby Todd got started (Brian shared the stories)! They have a growing community of families that use their products so they are doing well. Many community events are hosted here like jeni's ice cream and a play date with moms at Encinitas Community Park. They are generous with their bath products as sample giveaways. That's how you get people to buy your products!! :) We recently also bought items from their $40 for 3 items promotion, happening summer 2022.

Not all superheros wear capes, you rock Noriko!!!!!…read more I can't recommend the salon and the stylist that helped me enough. Noriko saved the day when I came in after cutting my own hair poorly. She immediately assessed what needed to be corrected and fixed it with ease. She was efficient, incredibly knowledgeable, and gave me what is genuinely the best haircut I've ever had. What makes the experience better is the value. For only $10, the quality and attention to detail were exceptional--far better than experiences I've had at salons where I've paid significantly more. It's rare to find someone with this level of skill who is also so efficient and affordable. Noriko is fantastic if you're looking for a new go-to stylist, or if you are looking for someone to save the day. If you're in need of someone who is talented, precise, and can quickly understand exactly what your hair needs, I highly recommend seeing her at Ulta Oceanside. 10/10 experience.

In particular, I went to go get some Mac studio fix powder. The store was busier than I've ever seen any Ulta, which caught me by surprise. It took me a while to find an associate to help. They would make eye contact and keep walking. I finally asked someone to help me color match. It had been years since I used the studio fix and I loved it when I was younger but found it hard to be matched. She tried a few colors on me and decided on one. It looked okay to me but it's so hard to tell in store. She also explained to me that the formulation had changed over the years and it wasn't the same as it used to be. They no longer use talc. She expressed that some people like it, and some people do not. I had no idea so I'm glad she told me. I ended up asking a few other sales people where to find items I was looking for, one pointed in the direction and one actually took me there. I sampled a few items through testers, but decided to stick with just the pressed powder for now. There was a long line to check out, but there was quite a few cashiers and they were opening more as I waited. The line moved quickly and I was able to pay for my item and ask questions about the return policy in case I didn't like the new formula . When I got home, I tested my new product and unfortunately it's a bit orange on me so I'll be bringing it back. Also, I do not like the new formulation it's very different (obviously not ulta's fault) and the coverage is weak so I am happy the employee on the floor let me know. I like ultas selection and sales, the service is hit or miss, but I'll keep coming back for the great deals.
