On this week’s Omni Talk Retail Fast Five, Chris Walton and Carter Jensen break down Ulta Beauty’s claimed comeback and whether the brand truly has its “swagger” back.
Chris argues the confidence is earned, pointing to strong strategic decisions and disciplined execution. He also explains why TikTok Shop is fundamentally different from marketplaces like Amazon, emphasizing that TikTok is built on inspiration and discovery, not just search and purchase.
The bigger question: can Ulta leverage social commerce without diluting its core business? Chris believes testing with exclusives and moving cautiously is exactly the right play.
