Conscious Beauty at Ulta Beauty™ gives guests choice and transparency, so they can purchase products that align with their values. It educates guests and highlights how brands and products are formulated, developed and packaged. It’s an approach that meets guests where they are, allowing them to shop according to the attributes that matter most to them.
Responding to the urgency of climate change matters not only to us, but also to our guests. By pursuing initiatives aligned with our strategy and influencing change across the industry, we’re doing our part to keep the world a beautiful place to live.
The Ulta Beauty Charitable Foundation (UBCF) has set a goal to donate $50 million to BCRF by 2024, equivalent to one million hours of breast cancer research. As of the end of 2022, we contributed over $47 million, putting this goal well within reach.
Education can provide a pathway out of poverty. Together, with partners like UBCF, Save the Children helps to ensure all children in rural America have a healthy, strong foundation to thrive as learners and in life. We raised $2.3 million for education and emergency response programs in 2022.
We support Dress for Success through financial resources, products and volunteerism. Since 2017, our donations have provided essential services to around 52,000 women across North America.
