Here's a Simple Skincare scenario for ya:

**UPDATE** Some people are reporting that the Simple products are not issuing both Balance Points when used with this Bonus points promo.  You will have to check your account to see if you were credited both sets of points.  I don't really understand why the Bonus points wouldn't credit because the selected products include skincare...but this is just a head's up for you.
