Ulta Beauty announced on Thursday revenues for the full-year surged 18% to $10.2 billion on the back of retail price increases, the impact of new brands and product innovation and increased social occasions in 2022.

The Bolingbrook, Illinois-based company said annual comparable sales also increased 15% for the year ended January 28, driven by a 11% increase in transactions and a 4% increase in average ticket sales.
