This is my go-to store for any Asian brand beauty items (e.g. skincare, makeup, hair, softest…read morecotton pads, etc). I love going here because I get to try things before I commit to purchasing. It's never crowded and parking is much more reasonable than other places. The store is very bright. They have so many things to try and they sell individual sheet-masks so that you can sample it at home before committing to purchasing the full pack. Everything is reasonably priced and you don't have to wait for shipping! They have a small table for clearance items by the front door and carry some Asian snacks towards the back. I've bought so many Korean/Japanese brand make-up/skincare products from here like PeriPeri, Shiseido, Hera, Kahi, Innisfree, Naturie, Clio, SK-II, Cle de Peau, and more but too many to list. ***If you've never had luxury soften cotton pads, I suggest you to purchase one from here!! Don't sand your skin with cotton pads you buy from your local market or retailer store*** Also, they have a loyalty points reward system so make sure to sign-up! NOTE: most items are in a different language so pull your phone out and use the photo translate feature. Sometimes the staff can help with translation, but when they can't they will give you an idea what it is or they'll look it for you.

I often come here to look around after work. It's usually more of an impulse thing lol, especially…read morewith Sephora so close! I get what I need, my endorphins kick in, and boom... impulse purchase. One thing I have noticed, though, is that if you don't look "nice," you sometimes feel like you're being followed or watched a little more closely. And my friend, after work I usually look like I just rolled out of bed I'm tired and exhausted! This has happened to me a handful of times where I've genuinely felt like I was being watched more closely. I get it, girl, you're doing your job, and I understand loss prevention is a thing. But even when I grab just one or two small items, sometimes I still get the look. Idk lol. Don't get me wrong, many of the employees are helpful and genuinely offer assistance. This is definitely not directed at the entire staff or the store as a whole. However, there have been a handful of interactions that have left me feeling uncomfortable. Of course, a business can say that's not what's happening, but as a customer, I'm simply sharing how the experience has felt from my end. I also want to add that I looked through some of the other reviews after I had already written my original review, and I actually came back to edit and include this part because I found it pretty telling. Let's just say I'm clearly not the only customer who has raised concerns about the overall customer experience. I'm writing this more as constructive feedback that I hope management can see and use to improve the store. If one or two people mention the same issue, maybe it can be brushed off as an isolated experience. But when a handful of customers are saying similar things, I think it's worth looking into and asking if something could be done differently. Nothing against the store, I continue to shop here, but customer perception and how people feel while shopping matter too. On another note, they don't have a huge perfume selection, which is disappointing because perfume is one of my favorite things! It's a smaller store overall, so I'm giving it 3 star. On the positive side, it's clean and conveniently located near a Whole Foods! :)

During my long first appointment, in which he spent 90% of the time with small talk about baseball, I told him I was here to look into lip wrinkle filler injections. I didn't want big puffed up lips...just some filler in a couple of the deep wrinkles on my upper lip. He said he would only use a little of the $725 vial at each procedure over time. His sweet nurse said they save the unused filler in the vial (marked as mine) for future injections, as needed. But when he actually did my first procedure, he injected the WHOLE vial!! Both his nurse and I were surprised...and to this day I don't know why he did it. Maybe he didn't remember that he was only supposed to fill a couple of wrinkles with some, not all, of the vial. Maybe he forgot our conversation. Maybe he didn't read his notes prior to my procedure. Maybe he didn't even make notes of the process we had agreed on!! Maybe he hoped I'd just buy more!! Maybe he just didn't care. Whatever, I ended up with my upper lip all puffed up, and of course I complained about it...which resulted in me having to get multiple needles to REMOVE the filler. All of these injections were terribly painful. I did ask for, and get, a refund...because now I had nothing but pain for my money!!! But my lip still looks odd on one side as there is still some filler in it...here and there...not even evenly. I will have to wait around nine months for the remnants to dissolve. I would never go back to him again, even if it was for free!!!

Paulina and Zimzie are so kind and helpful I had to stay and chat about soaps, stores, shopping, foods, and fun places around Orange County. This store is the best and I can't wait to return to find my next scent. Thanks ladies.

Hey Christina, take some notes! In all seriousness, this Ulta location is pretty cool, and has some very kind people working there! Another kind soul that I met was a senior task correspondents named Jadyn, Chloe, and Steph! They made sure to make me feel my absolute prettiest! They also shower with so many nice comments regarding my soul patch (side note: this is one of my DEEPEST insecurities. Every day I wake up and contemplate whether or not I should shave it for 5-10 minutes, but these girls, let me tell you, told me I looked like guy Ferrari). Jocelyn, Steph, Jadyn ,Chloe, Sara, Grace, Evelyn should also be promoted to a fricken makeup model cause of how friggin cool and beautiful they are. Not Christina tho!
