I have said it before and I will say it again, Sephora in Merrick park is the best spot for quick and affordable glam. You can book a service online and get a full face of makeup done for $60. I've gone multiple times and have always had a great experience. Most recently I booked with Gaby and she made my birthday glam vision a reality. What I love is that you don't need to buy any products, but if you love something it's a great way to find a new favorite beauty must-have. I left last week with a new Charlotte Tilburry lipstick and lip liner. Service is always really friendly here, and while the store is usually busy it isn't chaotic like some other locations. Will return when in need of Glam! read more

SEPHORA - Makeup and lashes by Gaby! - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Coral Gables, Florida

I visited this store earlier today and really enjoyed my experience. There was no line, and they had all the birthday month gifts in stock which I feel like is pretty rare! I came on a Monday morning a few minutes after they opened. The place is clean and organized. There are not a ton of people available to help but the person who helped me was super kind and very helpful. He helped me find a lot of different products. read more

This is one of my favorite Sephora shops. It's in the beautiful Shops at Merrick Park. The selection of products is great and the staff is always very helpful. Only deducting a star because: long lines and no free parking read more

Had the BEST experience yesterday! Usually I try to avoid in-store Sephora shopping because of the crowds & never ending lines. That all changed while I was waiting to exchange a product when all of a sudden, a lovely girl named Carolina appeared out of nowhere, asking if she could help. "I'm not sure... just need to exchange this." "Oh I can help you right over here! Let's just grab the product you need!" She helped me select the correct color, walked me over to the side & pulled out a handy-dandy handheld machine & in 2 minutes flat, my exchange was complete & I was out the door! Excellent customer service & with a smile to boot! Def one of the best Sephora's to come to if you must shop in-person read more

I had a gift card for Sephora since forever so I thought it was good to use it in the area before going to the Ritz Carlton coconut grove. I was able to park in the parking building right by Sephora. It's located central where the parking says Neumann Marcus. I paid $3 for parking that's why I took a star off. I don't like when you have to pay for parking at a mall. The experience at Sephora was good. I was asked preferences. It was ok although it was a little weird to see so much make up on my face. The store is beautiful and large. They carry a lot of brands I also use. read more

Today when checking out for the items I purchased for the holidays the cashier by the name NAYY started to bash me very loud after I asked her "Do you guys accept American Express?" She proceeded to answer with sarcasm and she asked very loud for everyone to hear "Are we in United States of America?" "Do we accept American Express?". I was completely horrified by the unexpected behavior of this individual. I'm not sure what happened but her intentions were to embarrass me in front of everyone. She also added "I'm sorry but I'm not the machine to tell you if we accept American Express". The whole thing took me by surprise and I was in disbelief. When completing the transaction I asked her if I could borrow her pen and I proceeded to write her name down to report the incident to the corporate office in San Francisco. When exiting the store I asked to speak with the store manager and shared with her the embarrassing experience at this store location. STORE #944. We live in a world that we should not allow anyone disrespect us or embarrass us in any way no matter what color, gender, height, ethnicity, weight etc. I'm not sure why the have NAYY at the register. They should place her in the back doing inventory or opening boxes but this individual is not capable to serve customers. Thank you - Grisel (Brickell, Miami FL) read more

I had a gift certificate for a perfume and they didn't have the product I wanted in stock, they tired to send me to another locations, the closest one was like 10 miles away. I asked if I could just use the $65 credit towards another perfume and pay the difference. The manager and cashier weren't able to figure out how to do that in the system. They just didn't want to do it. Poor customer service. They should have had the product I wanted shipped to me. read more

Be careful buying gift cards from the Sephora Coral Gables store. Or perhaps from all Sephora stores as well. Many many people have gotten zero balance in unused gift cards. Sephora takes your money, then pretend to "open investigation", string you along for weeks just to later say they can't help you because the small print on the card says "no refunds if cards are used". They say the gift card you bought at the store has been used online. They wash their hands and stick you with the problem. It's plain and simple Sephora theft of your money. It happened to me, my cousin and if you look online, many many people complain of the same thing. Are they cash strapped at Sephora? Are their employees thieves? Who knows but they will just shrug their shoulders at you. Very sketchy things going on at Sephora lately. read more

Who doesn't love going to Sephora!? Sephora at Merrick Park Village is a bit different than others because this particular store has great service. The staff members are knowledgeable and always make sure to show you the newest products. Its hard to walk out of this store empty handed, I personally like the variety of Tatcha skincare products and variety of fragrances. Make sure to ask for samples! read more

I've done some serious shopping at different Sephora Stores in the (305) & I have the VIP Rouge status to show for it. Some experiences have been good & some have left me wanting to just shop online 'cause the customer service has been terrible. But....This Sephora Store at Merrick Park was an absolute pleasure to shop at and my sales associate, Marilyn, was outstanding - great customer skills, friendly and knowledgeable of the products I asked her about; she even gave me samples of products I may like to try out before purchasing the full size....fabulous & cost saving since beauty products can rack up the $$$..! The checkout with Leydis (spelling?) also met & exceeded my expectations since she was also friendly and informed me of other store offers. From now on, this will definitely be my go-to Sephora store...!!! read more

I really don't know why I go to this Sephora! I walk in to buy a lipstick and the line is extremely long so I left. As I was leaving, a woman was following me on the way out as if I was stealing something. I am a VIP Rouge member, meaning that I spend at least $500 a year at this merchant and I'm not sure why because the staff can sometimes be so rude. The lady was a heavy set, brunette with glasses. She had no name tag. You cannot treat people like this. read more

Got my makeup done here. It was a last min booking same day so I got lucky! The makeup artist did a great job on my make up but I felt like it was hard to communicate with her since her English wasn't great and it seemed like she wasn't super confident in what I was telling her like she knew what she was doing but overall it was good but could of been better read more

This is like my Candy store. I could literally spend half a day here and schedule a facial, makeup and have my skin critiqued then slowly browse through the aisles. This is one of the smaller Sephora store, if you prefer more variety I suggest you hit Sephora in Dadeland or Aventura. However, this store is super convenient if you're in Merrick Park shopping already. This location is fairly new so everything looks bright and clean! However, sadly to say, the associates are friendly but not helpful. At other Sephora stores I have at least 2 associates asking me if I need assistance. Here, they ring you up with a smile and let you wonder aimlessly through the store. Which I'm ok with because I do that anyways in any Sephora store, there's just too many goodies that I can't decide!! Down side: they don't comp your ticket if you parked in the garage. Well, at least they didn't offer to comp my ticket. read more

​Beautiful Sephora store located inside the Village at Merrick Park Shopping center. The ladies working in here are so nice and they were extremely attentive to us today. You get points signing in their rewards program for free. The lady at the register created an account for my daughter right there, in less than 7 minutes and she got a gift because of it as her birthday. Their products and prices are exquisite but completely reasonable for the high quality they offer, even though some of them, I can not afford. Hermosa tienda Sephora ubicada dentro del Village en el centro comercial Merrick Park. Las mujeres que trabajan aquí son muy amables y nos prestaron m​uy buena atención. Obtienes puntos registrandote en su programa de recompensas de forma gratuita. La muchacha en la caja creó una cuenta para mi hija allí, en menos de 7 minutos y ella recibió un regalo por su cumpleaños. Sus productos y precios son exquisitos, pero completamente razonables por la alta calidad que ofrecen, aunque algunos de ellos no puedo pagarlos. read more

I want to start by saying that I do not intend to be rude or mean or put anyone down by this review, but my experience at this Sephora wasn't a pleasant one. I went yesterday to get my makeup done and I had a young man (dont remember his name) and I believe he simply did not know what he was doing. I dont know if it was his first time or what but i basically had to come home and redo my makeup for the event I was going to. I have done my makeup here before and I always love it so i was in shock when this happened. When you go get your makeup done professionally you expect your makeup to look nicer than if you did it and I felt like I could have done way better. The young man even asked me to apply my own eyeliner and mascara. And the mascara I had to remind him that none had been applied. I simply think he needs a lot more practice before Sephora uses him on other people because what he did to my face was unacceptable. I probably should have said something at the store but to be honest I was so upset and in a rush to get home to redo my makeup that I didnt :( read more

SEPHORA - This was the "professional" makeup that was done to me. Didnt even cover my blemish. Yes, i look awful! - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Coral Gables, Florida

Friendly staff. A ton of makeup with anything you are looking for. I love the brands that are sold at sephora. It is a pricier Ulta. This particular location seems slightly smaller than others I've been to but I was still able to find exactly what I was looking for without anyone's help as ecerything is labeled clearly. read more

As I read these reviews, I am glad to see I am not the only person who has had a bad experience when they visit this Gables Sephora. I am a Sephora Rogue member and can vouch for the other reviewers, the employees that work there are BEYOND rude, unprofessional and they truly believe that they own Sephora or something. I still can't understand, it's actually quite funny, and sad at the same time. I went in a few months back and this woman by the name of Maria color matched me soo off it's hilarious. Wow! Then the last time I was in I had this tiny little woman with her nasty attitude, snapping her fingers at me as I waited in line to checkout and pay, they were in a rush because as she put it, it was Friday, she just got paid and wanted to get the F out of there!! Umm, ok, this is the best you could do Sephora in your hiring requirements. She also wanted to let me know she had no issue putting me in my place as she put it, because she was from NY?!! Ok, luv.. I am also born and raised in NY, you didn't intimidate me, I just have class and a lot more to lose than you. So gross! Go to another Sephora, no one needs that negativity. All the employees there need an attitude adjustment. read more

This one star is for this specific Sephora store, not for Sephora as a company. I went there to switch from a powder to a liquid foundation. Simple enough, but I'm inexperienced with makeup and was relying on the knowledge and expertise of the Sephora employees. The girl that helped me was so clueless, literally asking me if I like this color, or that color. I kept saying I just want it to match my skin tone... I want the liquid equivalent to the 06 warm porcelain shade from the powder, whatever that may be... cant you just color match? She would say "oooh... what about this one?" When I tried to respectfully back out of her help, she then pointed at some bottles and said "my sister in law loved this one!" Like... great, this is all incredibly useless. After everything, she wound up telling me she strongly believes the N20 Best Skin Ever would be my shade. She put some on me, and my insecure ass is feeling insecure about it, but she insisted it was a match. She's the professional on this, right? So I believed her. I bought it online because I couldn't get it that particular day. It makes me look like I have liver cirrhosis. So my husband went back to the store to exchange it for me because we have a baby and it's hard to get out of the house. I sent him with a picture of my warm porcelain shade so that somebody who is actually competent can match it in the liquid. My husband came home with something twice as expensive. You know when women get ripped off by mechanics because they take advantage of their inexperience? Yea, that is absolutely what happened here. Apparently they couldn't find a matching shade in Best Skin Ever. Are you kidding me? Out of all those shades? My skin color isn't unique. Give me a freaking break. Needless to say, I will be going back to return this overpriced paint, and the brush I bought to use for it and going back to my powder. And honestly, I'm thinking of switching to MAC after all this. read more

This location recently opened 2 days ago in Merrick Park across from the Athleta store on the second floor (it took over the Bebe clothing store spot on the corner). Compared to other Sephora locations it's rather small with more of a focus on makeup and other skin productions than perfumes (the perfume section is in the back). However, on the upside they have plenty of sales associates to assist you if needed. I appreciate that they carry a wide variety of travel size products and although the store is small, they managed to distribute the products throughout the space in a way that makes for an enjoyable and comfortable shopping experience. They also have a doggie water bowl just outside of the entrance. Woof! read more

I've never fawned over Sephora as many of my other friends have. I feel like I had really never had a great experience before I tend to walk in no one helps me and then I get annoyed. I decided to give it another shot today (I had a long list of products that needed replenishing/new products I wanted to try). I walked in and was not greeted by anyone I started to attempt to tackle my list on my own and of course it was overwhelming with all the products available. I saw on my two sales associates chatting it up by the cash register (sounded like they were having a grand ole time). One of them walked over towards me asking if I needed help. I asked her a few questions and she was pretty rude so I stopped asking and just kept browsing... And that's when I saw Yulia! She was not among the rude chatty sales associates, she was working quietly minding her own business. She looked approachable (and her makeup was flawless, so I imagined she must know what she was doing) so I went up to her for help. She quickly gave me suggestions and since I had such a long list she asked if I wanted to sit down and try on specific things. She was very knowledgeable and patient (thank you btw) with my zillions of questions! She gave me suggestions as to which brands to use based on my skin type and also what tools to use. She also showed me exactly how to use the products I was interested in. She really did an absolutely amazing job and I seriously thank her. I'm so happy with all the products I was able to find and love! If every sales associate was as attentive as Yulia Sephora would be a better place. This was the great experience I had been missing out on at Sephora all along. Will definitely be coming back and make sure to look for Yulia next time I need anything/have questions about products. read more

Visited the store for a free contour class and loved it! The ladies were knowledgeable and very friendly. Helped me get my perfect foundation shade and made me a pro at contouring. Wanted to get the whole store after. Looking forward to visiting again for another class and get recommendations on what makeup best suits me. read more

I don't usually leave reviews but I went to this store the other day and was helped by the sweetest employee, Alexa. She helped me pick the right shade for my skin and recommended amazing products, she def made my shopping experience be great, thanks! read more

Worst shopping experience. Super rude and condescending. I'm a Rouge member and I will never shop at Sephora again!!!!

I did the makeover with a purchase and it came out totally cute! Daniela is literally the greatest makeup artist ever. They have a great return policy too! I have super duper sensitive skin and had return something with ingredients I was allergic to. Great experience PS I swear by tarte now! read more

Worst Sephora In Miami. I only buy make up at Sephora and this one is 5 mins away from home. I prefer to drive to a different one because the service is bad. The staff just don't care - last time I went, I was there for 20 mins and wasn't asked ONCE if I needed help. read more

I don't know how this Sephora location has only 3stars. The service I receive when I go in is 5 star for sure. The attendants are so friendly and totally unobtrusive. When I go to the Sephora in Dadeland it's like they bombard you with questions. You can tell that they are wanting you to mention their name so they can get some sort of commission I guess. Being in hospitality i totally get that you have to try and make a sale, but not at the expense of making a customer feel pressured or overwhelmed. That is NOT the case at all at this Sephora. Every time I have gone, someone does approach me but after I browse around a little. They don't single you down and stalk you like a hawk stalking it's prey lol I especially love how okay they are when you ask for a fragrance sample. I have gone in a few times and asked for a cologne sample and they always freely and willingly give me one which I very much appreciate. I recommend this location over the one in Dadeland. It gets so loud in there and too crowded. It totally affects my shopping experience. Being a Rouge Member and Sephora Play Box Subscriber, you get the type of service and attentiveness you'd expect:) read more

If I could give 0 star I would today Saturday 18/21 I purchased online at Sephora to pick up in curb pick up, so when I was arriving at this location around 7:45pm I called the store and I asked one of the employee (just to make sure if I was in the right pick up spot as there's no sign saying curb side pick up) so I can pick up the item. The employee asked me where I was and I told her I'm right next to Nordstrom I asked if the garage that was across the street is the one for curb side pick up and she didn't even know, so she told me to go a little bit further right after Nordstrom and to wait. Anyways I couldn't stay there because there were no parking. I had to go around and park in a garage were I thought is the one for curb side pickups. The employee never came, I called the store and the manager very rude and hysterical was telling me that the employee was outside looking around and I wasn't there when I was waiting for more than 45 minutes! I explained the manager were I was and that I even passed by the same area that this employee had told me to wait close to Nordstrom but she didn't even let me talk, that's how agitated she was. Anyways the manager seems to have a bad day or something, she reminds me "Karen" in a maximum expression and very incompetent. read more

Honestly the only reason I come to this Sephora is because it's close to my house. Every time I come in, I'm never greeted, never looked at or spoken to. Typically the employees are talking amongst themselves huddled in a corner. The few times that I have needed help or an opinion on something, I was given a one word answer and treated like an annoyance. Im a VIB and spend a lot of money in Sephora when I'm there, but I will definitely find another Sephora to spend my money. 2 thumbs down. read more

The WORST experience Ive ever had at a Sephora. Is there was a zero Stars option I would definitely be giving it that. Im from Los Angeles and came in looking for specific products, I just needed to be pointed in the right direction. ALL the associates were chatting and talking among themselves. I walked by several and they acted busy. Two looked at me and immediately looked away and began to walk away. One walked out to the front of the store to talk on her cell. I was flabbergasted by the blantant disregard and how they straight up ignored me. I walked over to the cashier and she was the only one to ask if I needed help. I was going in to get gifts and was about to drop hundreds of dollars. I ended up going to the Nordstrom and had a pleasant experience with a woman named Rozania W. read more

i live close so this is my go to sephora. i am giving it 1 star because every time i go in there to get a present, restock ect not one sales person asks me if i need help and i usually do need help finding something. i look around and wait for help but nothing then i finally ask an associate and they are no help. anyways today i had to wait at the counter while the associate finished his conversation with his friend. i left and bought what i needed at neimans :) read more

Stephanie is amazing! She is such a talented makeup artist and was very patient with me. Strongly recommend her to do everyone's makeup!

I was visiting Miami from New Jersey and came into this store. First off, the store was very clean! I was color matched by Kirby and she helped me find everything I needed! She also ordered a product for me that was out of stock. Kirby was super sweet!! I'll definitely be returning here when I'm back in Miami. Thank you Kirby!!! read more

I'm a huge believer in when something is wrong, you say something to hopefully correct it for the future and if something is right, you say something to confirm the business is on the right track and deserves business. If you look below, you'll see my terrible experience at this store exactly one year ago. Well, by chance, I had items to return after Irma from Sephora that I hadn't had a chance to until 2 weeks later. I was having a full day of errands, not the greatest day either and I had some time to kill in the area. I figured my day was already bad so if I wasn't treated well, whatever, but at least I'd be productive in returning my products. I am SO happy I did. Again, because of Irma, my house/all things were a mess, I had no idea where the receipts were and it was no problem. They just looked up my VIB Rouge account and it was all solved. Since that went well, I decided to buy the foundation I had in mind. Thavea (spelling?) helped me out, steered me away from the shade I thought was mine, tried out the ID thing, wasn't happy with that shade for me either, and went through 3 before he was satisfied. I had such a great experience, I decided to say something and Thavea pointed me towards Leeana (spelling again! sorry?) the manager, and she actually remembered the incident from last year, was super professional in accepting accountability with grace and we were able to discuss it in a complete mature manner. She then insisted I stay for a skin cleaning and make-over. Alexandra did my make up and I have never looked better. I have been terrified of eye shadow because any time I wore it I looked ridiculous but she totally picked out my right color and I looked (modesty out the window here) so pretty! She signed my mum and I up for some classes which I really look forward to taking. Honestly, it's so nice to know this is truly how the store is run and the rest was a one time bad day. I will definitely be visiting again, along with the classes we plan to attend. read more

It has to be said: this is the WORST Sephora ever, in terms of customer assistance. There are plenty of salespeople...they just don't seem to do any work. They stand around looking bored, yet no one offers to help you buy anything. It almost feels like an episode of Pranked or something...they just really, really ignore the customers. I have been there about 10 times, each time ready to spend 75-100$ on random beauty products. But I often end up walking out and buying at Neiman instead. read more

I wish you could put zero stars the lady who did my make for graduation was so horrible putting foundation on with her hands like what the fuck are you doing her name was Vanessa I asked her repeatedly to use a beauty blender and she said no it would take to long she started late to being with 20 minutes and she finished my eyeshadow in 3 minutes my little brother could have done a better job than her and then she put contour on and didn't blend it so I looked like there was dirt on my face and she said almost done just the lips when I look ok the mirror the foundation you see the streak mark from the brush and she put black stuff under my eyes that looked liked I had to black eyes then I started to cry and walk out she was the worst if you are going to have someone do make up please let them be good I had to go home scrub it off and do my makeup myself. She ruined a big day for me. read more

Terrible service. I made a 10:30AM appointment in order to be on time to my own birthday party at 11:30AM (close by). I walked in maybe 2 min before another customer and my make up "artist" helps her for 20 or so minutes before acknowledging me. She is still running around and i haven't been worked on yet. Will likely be late. Thanks for a terrible start to my birthday. The worst Sephora I've ever been to. read more

This Sephora does not answer the phone and the one on Dadeland the automatic message comes on to leave a message for the manager but the voice mail is full. Not a service oriented company. Terrible. read more

The holy grail of holy grails....I love smelling Sephora as I'm nearing the entrance. This Sephora opened up September 2015 and its taken away 80% of my paycheck ever since. Dadelands is closer to me but this Sephora seems to have better selection, a younger and trendier staff and nicer by far. Ive had my makeup done here multiple times and always leave looking flawless. Its smaller than Dadeland too but again I still prefer Merrick Park location + staff. read more

Love this Sephora. Josh is amazing! I had so many questions and he answered all of them. He's full of knowledge and even let me watch and explained as he did someone else's make up. Thank you josh! You're amazing. Will be coming back here! read more
