Sephora is coming to Bluewater!

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

in 2024 so the Bluewater information says .

Anyone know when?. Before Christmas would be their plan surely .
Ideally before December to catch the pre-Christmas market .

And yes , I know I could go online or Westfiekd Stratford , but humour me .

TIA

I'm sure there used to be one there. Hadn't realised it shut!!

I'm sure there was one there years ago, it must've closed down. I used to go when ds was little and he's 24 now. It was really good, I understand your excitement!

I was excited to see some in France when I was there recently, went in one and we were constantly followed around by a security guard, really ruined the whole experience.
It’s not that fucking exclusive, most of it could have been bought in a decent Boots back home where we wouldn’t have had a security guard tailing us round the whole bloody shop!
Will stick to online if I ever needed anything Sephora specific - their nail polishes are surprisingly good!

Watch out for the 9&10 year-olds

They have far too much money these days!!

It says '2024' and 'winter' online so must be before Christmas.

I'm not sure what Sephora can possibly offer that SpaceNK and Boots can't. But I guess the demand must be there if they're opening new stores

The UK ones are nothing like the ones in the US and are utterly disappointing.

I've always thought they were a bit rubbish myself too

I've never see the fuss about Sephora. In the USA they are diversifying now and setting up in other stores ie Kohls which is a relatively down market store.

There definitely used to be a Sephora store at Bluewater.

There was a Sephora in Bluewater in 2000 and it closed due to change of strategy and they closed all non USA shops.

The one is Westfield Stratford is tiny!
And it is not even as good as Boots. Now I see why boots has upped its game recently with the new beauty areas. It was to head off Sephora. But boots goes from Chanel to Revolution, the entire market range. Whereas Sephora is just small selections from higher end brands. Nothing special!

I was so disappointed.
Upon poking around the Sephora website I saw they are recruiting an entire retail team for a new shop in Bluewater! V surprised. And now it's been announced that House of Fraser in Bluewater is closing- maybe Sephora is going in there?

The shop in 2000 was pretty large so maybe it is?

27th November is the opening day which is a Wednesday so no use for me , I'll be a work, so will DD.
