Went in a couple days ago to look for a light weight foundation, like a skin tint, and Priscilla helped me out!! She was super sweet and helpful. She recommended me the Makeup Forever Glow Foundation, super lightweight and doesn't turn me orange. I've been using it ever since!! Thank you Priscilla for helping me out!! read more

Negative 199 stars. All your workers are rude and not helpful. Nobody greeted us when we walked in, nobody asked if we needed help. The lady at the cashier had a major attitude problem. Customer service is trash. read more

I think this store location in particular needs a lot of help. This store is smaller in size so merchandise islands are set up tightly and everyone (employees and customers) just stand in the center walkway. You need to make your way through 100 people just to get to the check out line. Employees are slow and there is a major lack of actual customer service going on. The air is filled with perfume. Testers are absolutely disgusting. Not a shoppable store. I don't know how ANYONE works in there let alone shops in there. I had to make a return, 20 minute wait in pure hell. read more

I really enjoy Sephora as a store- I'm a member. However, this location is the closest to me. Every time I come I feel watched and followed, as soon as I enter this location. It truly makes it a very uncomfortable shopping experience. Luckily I had a question this time, asking if they carried cosrx and right behind me was a worker. They don't, only Ulta. read more

Extremely rude cashier by the name of Mimi. Doesn't look like she likes her job at all. Came in to return unopened products I bought a month ago. They said they couldn't accept it since I purchased on March 19th and today is April 19th & it's been 31 days not 30 days. The manager Nina was not accommodating. I had to contact customer service and spoke to a pleasant lady who accepted my return. After this return I'm leaning Sephora thanks to these people who don't know the meaning of customer service. read more

This girl was taking FOREVER to scan items and handle the customer. There were so many other people in line and she works at the rate of a f***ing sloth. read more

Very small Sephora for this mall. They need to get a bigger location that can accommodate their foot traffic. The customer service is great but it feels overwhelming having very narrow aisles, not enough room to move or turn around. Literally you cannot be in the same aisle as another person or if you are a certain size you won't fit or if you are in a wheelchair or crutches, there is no way you can enjoy the store. Not customer friendly. They put too many gondolas and products yet didn't think of the comfort of their customers. Not enjoyable. Great employees tho!!!! read more

See all

I mostly visit this Sephora location for glam makeup appointments and have never had any issues with the booking process or the makeup artists, they're always professional and do a great job. The only downside is that shopping in-store can be overwhelming since it's almost always crowded, and the checkout line tends to be long. Because of that, I usually place my orders online and choose in-store pickup, which is super convenient and usually has little to no wait time. Overall, a reliable Sephora location, but best if you use the pickup option instead of browsing during peak hours. read more

Always an amazing time at Sephora! Hadn't been to the one in Brea for a while. Not gonna lie it's not my favorite one, but it works and I love me some Sephora. read more

I always receive the worst service if I receive any at all when it comes to this location. I only come to this location because it's the closest to me. Last night was the last time I will ever step foot into Sephora at the Brea mall. I went in there because I was in the immediate vicinity and decided that I wanted to return some things possibly for store credit because I realized that it was past 30 days...no big deal. I get to the register and I type in my phone number and hand over my items . The cashier scans the items and proceeds to holler out, and I quote "OH NO BABY. THESE ARE WAY PAST THE RETURN WINDOW GIRL, THEY WERE BOUGHT WAY BACK ON 19 and 22!" So I'm standing there looking at her like chill out, yes August 19th and 22nd. So then I'm like OK yes I know when I purchased the items since they're past 30 days I'm fine with store credit isn't that normally how it works? Don't you have up to 60 days to receive store credit? And she's like "OH NO THEY CHANGED THE POLICY SEVEN MONTHS AGO. ITS A HARD 30 DAYS NOW!" Once again, just another huge unnecessary reaction from her. And I don't believe she would've reacted like that if it was someone who didn't look like me. And so I grabbed my items and I say OK that's fine. I never knew about the updated return policy because newsflash at this point it may be more than obvious that I never return things, I just figured I would this time. From here on out, I will choose respect and intention over convenience. read more

Very nice store! Employees were nice and helpful and super friendly! The store was clean and I definitely recommend

All the staff were very friendly. Allie at the checkout counter was so sweet and has excellent customer service skills. Also the Anastasia brand associate went above and beyond! She was incredibly helpful and even looked for us in the store when she found items we thought were sold out. We really appreciated her effort and kindness. We'll definitely be coming back! read more

My daughter saved her coins to buy me a gift. We went to the store and she paid with her coins. All the coins were rolled and wrapped, not loose or messy. However, the cashier seemed very upset that we were paying with coins. The way she treated us and her facial expressions made us feel very uncomfortable. Money is money, and if someone works as a cashier and deals with the public, they should provide good customer service and never make customers feel bad. read more

David was such great help, he was so genuine and helped me find what skincare products works best for my skin. Probably the nicest Sephora employee I've ever talked too. read more

Carol Made Our Visit Amazing! I had such a great experience at the Brea Mall Sephora! Carol was so sweet and helpful, and another team member (wish I got his name!) was just as warm and bubbly. They both went above and beyond to help us pick out the perfect perfume. Carol even surprised us with a cute keychain and a travel-size perfume that came with the purchase. Their kindness and energy made the shopping experience so much fun!!! I'll definitely be coming back! read more

The manager is incredibly rude. Mocking rude and extremely disrespectful, just go elsewhere honestly. Called and asked about a deal and the manager began ridiculing. (Just went elsewhere and they had the deal) read more

My favorite makeup store, well one of them. But I have come here for so many years now. I love this location, all the employees always greet you and ask if you're looking for anything. Today was super busy for the Holiday rush, but I made it through. Got a few gifts for my sister and her kids. Its so hard to buy for them since they have everything they want and need but I love and enjoying buying gifts for them. I found what I needed but because it was so busy it was a little overwhelming lol. I got asked a few times if i needed help and if I was ok. Thank you so much, the girl who helped me I wish I got her name she was so sweet and told me the specials they had going on. Honestly the store was almost cleaned out all the high end makeup and stuff I like and wanted to get for my sister was gone lol. So hopefully they bring it back in stalk soon. I recently did an online order for my Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer I have been using for over 20 years now lol. It was all out so I had to get a different one. But it's ok, more natural but I still like the other one better. Over all I love this location the employees are really friendly and helpful, I usually always find what I need. It's a gorgeous store for us woman who love our makeup. Lol I don't use a lot but i still have my staples I have to have or need. I recommend this location in Brea mall its nice little small but nice. Have a beautiful day, be kind to everyone :) Aloha read more

From the moment I walked in I felt welcomed and comfortable. Renee is a professional makeup artist. She perfectly executed my vision & she was easy to talk to during the 90 min appt. I felt confident, glamorous, and received so many compliments. I will definitely be coming back for future events! read more

I really love Sephora and I come to the Brea Mall often and usually always go into Sephora. The one thing that I always notice, that I always hope has been addressed when I go in, is how dusty and unclean all the displays are. Certain make up sections, the perfume section, always seems like it's never been wiped down and cleaned. I get how tedious it probably is with all the products, but it would make such a big difference in the quality of the store. With all the upgrades and renovations going on with this mall I really think Sephora could use some love. read more

The place has upper end makeup. They have everything. It's a women's store. They are busy. Place is clean. Me being a guy I can not see spending the kind of money they are asking. My granddaughters will stay with more economical stuff. read more

I came here 9/13 on a Saturday early of course because I can't stand the crowds lol and Jazmine was SO HELPFUL, KIND & KNOWLEDGEABLE with her makeup. I came only wanting a mascara and of course left with much more. Jazmine has exceptional customer service and I hope she gets a promotion because her blending skills are also on point. read more

I purchased a $50 lipstick and the stingy woman helping me didn't bother putting it in a bag or offering me one. She simply put the product on the counter and nodded. I may as well have purchased a slab of deli meat. I guess I shouldn't be surprised at the caliber of service given the condition of this location. The store is dirty and poorly laid out with narrow aisles which inevitably means people are constantly bumping into you or trying to push their way down the aisle. read more

Hi!! Went there on Friday, August 15th. It was busy!! Back to school shopping but with it being busy, they didn't miss a beat! I was greeted by two friendly girls at the door that offered me a basket, like an idiot, I said no thx you. I was in for one thing only, my Merit concealer. I went all the way to the back, got it and was going to check out. That's when I saw the Sephora brand collection and met Coda, sorry if I butchered your name. He helped me with the products, gave me some recommendations and had me look and try on some eyeshadow sticks. He was a doll! I left $190 later satisfied and happy with my purchases. I have tried on all the sticks on my face and just feel younger. I won't say my age. This store is super helpful but Coda made it extra special. He was right!! The matte Sephora lipstick does not dry out your lips. Thx for the experience and I will definitely be going back again. read more

This was my first time at the Brea location. It will be my last time. The worst customer service. Specifically Liz. I believe she was a manager. Rude, unhelpful, and apathetic. The opposite of the qualities a manager should have. The male associate at the register referred me to Liz and said she might make an exception for my return. I brought my return after 29 days technically. But the system would not allow it. I just wanted to exchange it for the same product but one shade lighter. As I said she was rude, immediately shut me down. If they look at my account they will see that I have spent THOUSANDS of dollars at Sephora. But after this experience with the poor customer service, I will now go to Ulta instead. I can accept if they couldn't do the return but please be nice about it next time. The policy only recently changed from 60 days. read more

we appreciated the beauty lesson provided by Adrian Figueroa.He was absolutely the best! He was clear about each step and made my daughter feel beautiful! comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. I will definitely be returning and I recommend Adrian 200% read more

Came in to look for a new foundation/powder. Stood by the makeup line I was interested in for about 10-15 mins and no one came by to ask if I needed anything. So I went looking for a sales assoc. And sure enough found them, hanging out, gossiping as usual. I told her I needed help and she said someone would come over to help. Don't know why she couldn't though. So I went back to the prodcut line area and waited and waited and waited. Nothing. About 15 mins later, same sales assoc came over to tell me it would be a few mins more when a sales assoc would come over to help me. Again..........I waited and waited and waited........ Nothing. I finally gave up. I went up to her and told I needed to go. I had just came in to get this one thing and had an errand to run. The store was not busy! There was only 1 customer at the counter and no one in line. And this was on a Tues around noon not even a weekend. I don't see how this store remains open. I've gone in there a few times in the past and the sales assoc just seem annoyed when you ask for help. And I did walk around and looked at various eye shadow palette testers and they were grimey or so worn out that there was barely any left in the pan. The brand I was interested in is sold at Nordstrom's too. I think I might go over there from now and least get points. read more

They won't let me return a product 2 days past the return date.... 2 DAYS.. that's insane with how much money I spend here and I literally never do returns. The only reason I wasn't able to get in and do the return sooner is because my grandma just died and time got away from me unfortunately. No empathy whatsoever. It's gross and weird. I'll just go to Ulta from this point forward. read more

No one speaks or offers to help you out when they see you walking around. I seen a few employees on their phones and they run off when they catch you looking. I put my items back and will not be returning to this location. I'll stick with Kohl's Sephora!!! read more

Thank you to Demi for your amazing help and tips on techniques to perfect my eyebrows. She taught me what products to utilize and the steps to do it. Look forward to implementing it into my makeup routine ‍ read more

Love this store, the staff is always so kind and helpful. However, the main reason for my review is for the 60 min appointment I scheduled recently. I had Renee W complete the service and I 100% just had to get on here and give her the biggest shoutout and thank you. My makeup looked amazing and literally did not budge. I ended up buying a few items from the list/products she used on me. I will definitely be in touch again for future appointments and highly recommend booking with her! Thank you again! read more

I had a amazing visit with the best consultant name Brandon , he worked with me one on one showed me the best way to prep my skin before I do my makeup, taught me how to exfoliate, moisturize , use serums with the best products and even showed me affordable ones as well , I look forward to see him again on my next visit to Sephora , also he helped me pick a good powder my go to was Mac , now my new go to , is Huda , and also helped me get my favorite concelar and liquid lipstick . Brandon went above and beyond I really appreciate him read more

Renee is amazing!!! Thank you for taking the time to make I me feel beautiful, despite being so tired and sleepy! Renee made me feel comfortable during my makeup treatment. Not only did she choose top tier products for my skin, she also told me about all the promotions they had in store and really educated me on the products and how it would be beneficial for my skin. Thank you for being so sincere and genuine. I can tell you put a lot of heart into what you do! I will be coming back, and it is all because I had an amazing experience with Renee. Thank you for everything! read more

Sephoras are always busy. That's understandable. I walked into this on a Saturday. The mall was full. I walked up to two pairs of associated standing next to each other chatting. I said excuse me twice. One had very short blonde hair and looked and me and kept ignoring me. Around the other corner near the hair products another pair of ladies chatting and laughing and my daughter and I stood there waiting to ask questions. I spoke up to get their attention, nothing. I heard the movie they saw was good though. So I was gonna find the products myself. No one approached to and asked if we needed help until EMMA. She was patient and kind and she was there to work. She took my daughter and I to the products we had questions about. Into'd us to some clean ingredient skin care and makeup. Made some great suggestions. I did see some associates busy with customers. But for having so many assoc. why are so many of them just chatting or walking around trying to look busy. The stars are for Emma. read more

SEPHORA - Birthday gift - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Brea, California

Came in today around 3:45. Lots of employees everywhere, but only one cashier slowly ringing up a long line... I especially did not appreciate the nasty female hanging out near the Farmacy section, who was sizing up and immediately pointing out people's "flaws" in an attempt to upsell them and sway them to other products. Super rude. Sad that some employees might feel the need to passive-aggressively throw shade to try to get some sales. In my many years of shopping at Sephora I have never experienced such disrespect... I will be contacting corporate. Employees should not be approaching customers in an insulting manner like this. Like shut your mouth and organize some lip gloss, girl bye. read more

Adam is amazing. If I could give a hundred stars, I would! Everyone who approached us was super friendly and helpful. Adam put up with my fussiness and was extremely patient and adorable. He went above and beyond and completely out of his way to help me find what I was looking for. He needs a raise, Sephora...thank you, Adam from your new NY friends! read more
