Ulta Beauty operates over 1,500 freestanding beauty retail stores across the US, selling cosmetics, skincare, haircare, and fragrance products to general consumers. It differentiates from department stores by carrying both mass-market and prestige brands under one roof. In-store salon services (hair, makeup, skin, brows) make up a small slice of revenue but pull in foot traffic. Internationally, it owns UK/Ireland chain Space NK (86 stores) and has franchised and joint-venture operations in Mexico and the Middle East. Revenue comes primarily from product sales, with salons as a secondary stream.
