Our debut in 1970s Paris changed the face of prestige cosmetics. A year after our acquisition by luxury group LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton in 1997, we expanded our empire to North America with a revolutionary store model that broke down the department store counter. Now with more than 360 stores in the Americas—including US, Canada, Mexico, and Brazil—and 500 inside JCPenney, we’ve become a leading international beauty destination, with over 2,000 locations in 31 countries, plus an award-winning website and an intuitive mobile app that offer endless ways to explore beauty.
At Sephora, we help our client unlock her beauty potential. She has permission to play with 14,000 products from a curated blend of 200 brands, featuring indie darlings, emerging favorites, trusted classics, and a private label, SEPHORA COLLECTION. Sephora University beauty experts update her look with makeovers, classes, events, and one-on-one consultations. An inclusive online beauty community on our award-winning Beauty Board, interactive Beauty Talk, and The Sephora Glossy blog offers her trends and tips. Plus, dedicated teams at our fast-paced San Francisco corporate headquarters and New York City offices cater to her every need by creating covetable assortments, curated content, compelling storytelling, smart strategy, skillful analysis, and more.
