First of all, it has been two hours since I was in this stores and I am still appalled by what has…read morehappened. At 1:15 P.M. Pacific Standard Time in the Newport Beach Cos Bar on Friday June 30th 2023, I entered the beauty store for my first and definitively LAST time. The moment I walked in to the store I heard lots of unpacking and since I had walked this street before and never noticed this store before, I asked if the store had just opened, to which a blonde lady told me "no" and I playfully said "really? I've been here before and I never saw this store" (the storefront is relatively small) to which an employee told me something along the lines of "clearly you weren't looking that hard." I brushed off this encounter and approached a table with foundation. I was in a rush that morning and had zero makeup on, so I took this opportunity to try on a new foundation brand that I didn't know existed. No one helped me. I chose the shade myself and then when to the small mirror on the counter to look at the shade. Then an older blonde White female employee came up to me... I told her I didn't know La Mer foundation existed, and she made a rude face to me. I told her that I have acne, and wanted to see how it looked. She said you me "you have breakouts, you don't have acne. If you had acne it would look different." At this point, I already had foundation on my face so how would she know? Also according to Healthline.com, breakouts are acne, so what is she talking about? She then told me I needed tinted foundation. She rudely told me I picked the wrong shade even though she wouldn't show me what shade I needed. She told me I needed tinted foundation, without helping me find what shade of tinted foundation. She told me I need to use bronzer, without telling me what kind of bronzer to use or how to use it. The constant scrutiny and baseless and confusing remarks made me feel hostile atmosphere. The final and most strong evidence of horrendous behavior came when I was looking in the mirror. I was looking at an adjustable mirror sitting on the counter and she took her hand as she was standing behind the counter and tilted the mirror, so I could no longer see myself in the mirror. The mirror was in front of my but after she tilted it, in was no longer in the view. I WAS ACTIVELY LOOKING AT MYSELF IN THE MIRROR AND SHE MOVED THE MIRROR SO I COULD NO LONGER SEE MYSELF. Being naive and confused as to what was happening I took the handheld mirror next to the original countertop mirror I was looking at, and used it to look at my skin instead, while she stared at me in silent anger. How horrible you are. I am not sure if this was about race but I am an Asian woman while she was White. Appalling. I am hoping this store has surveillance cameras so they can pull up the footage and corroborate exactly what I've been talking about. Absolutely disgusting. Shame on you. Crazy. (BTW go look at the other bad review, clearly this shop has something against Asian women) I also had a spoke with the store director named Michelle, who claimed that employee whom I had a horrendous experience with was named Eraine.

We felt very disrespected, and even if we weren't going to buy anything we still should have been treated like any other customer. We ended up leaving empty handed. I've been to other locations and have never been made uncomfortable by an employee. Disappointed.

Nothing felt rushed or salesy--she genuinely cared about helping me find the right products. Every single product she recommended has been a game changer.

Alicia is not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also so kind and easy to talk to. She made the whole experience fun and personalized. If you're going to Sephora, you NEED to ask for her. I'll definitely be coming back just to shop with her again! 10/10 recommend

I asked if they had a certain lipstick shade my daughter was looking for, and he opened a drawer, quickly closed it, and told us they didn't have it.

But when I got to the register, the cashier immediately told me I still had my free birthday gift available. The misinformation and rude attitude really took away from what should've been a fun Mother's Day shopping trip. Thankfully the cashier was much more helpful and kind.

He replied by saying that and I had two choices of boutiques near me: SCP and mission Viejo. He gave me incorrect information. That said, I was BEYOND happy to see that they RELOCATED. Lecia was an absolute doll as well as the other sales associate. They helped me find everything I needed, threw in some samples, and included a birthday gift as it's my birthday month. The new store is larger,not as crowded, and it is as vibrant and lovely as the people who work there. This is the only boutique location I will happily spend my money at, and I'm just so happy they relocated & are still at FI. There was NO WAY I was going to deal with the madness and inconvenience of going to SCP or Mission Viejo. So happy to find the new location today. Thanks for the stellar service, Lecia and staff!
