Certain destinations are only serviced by select shipping methods. Depending on the shipping address you specify, you will only be offered shipping method options that are valid for that address type. Most of our packages ship UPS, since this is a traceable method. Please note that packages shipped via the U.S. Postal Service are not traceable after leaving our warehouse.

Hazardous Materials

The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) restricts air shipment of hazardous materials items that could contribute to a fire or other mishap on board an aircraft. Aerosol products in pressurized spray containers (e.g., hairspray, shaving cream, deodorant, some perfumes) and products containing flammable, volatile, or corrosive chemicals (e.g., aftershave, nail polish, nail polish removers) have this restricted status. ULTA.com is committed to getting your products to you as fast as possible, in the most safe and responsible way. That's why Ground Shipping is required for all such items.
