    Amazing Service at Sephora South Coast Plaza! I had such a great experience at Sephora today, thanks to Maria! Even though she was working the front desk, she was the one really putting in the work. She went above and beyond to help me pick out everything I needed and took the time to explain which products would work best for me. Her knowledge and kindness made my shopping trip so much easier and enjoyable. Sephora needs more team members like her! Highly recommend asking for Maria if you visit this location.

    I booked a 60-minute full-face makeup session for 11:15 on Tuesday morning. However, an hour before the appointment, it was canceled because the store manager tried to call me, but I was unable to answer. Since I was already at the store, they asked me to wait another 30 minutes and offered a 30-minute feature highlight on eyes instead. The result was very disappointing--my eyes didn't look any better. I will not return or recommend this service to any friends. Since I was unhappy with the result but had to hurry off to my next appointment, they offered me a "gift" which contained some used products. It looked very cheap, and I dumped it on the way to my car.

    Does Sephora carry any organic, toxic-free concealers? (without parabens, phenoxyethanol, or retinyl palmitate) I really like the IT Cosmetics: Bye Bye Under Eye Illumination Concealer, bc of the tacky texture, but I'd rather avoid these chemicals.

    RMS would be absolutely your best bet! People love it. :)

I never felt pressured or pushed into anything unnecessary. Instead, she answered every question thoroughly, made me feel informed, and truly supported me through the entire process. What stood out most to me was how warm, kind, and approachable she is. Going into something like this can feel overwhelming, but she made me feel comfortable, cared for, and confident in my decisions. Even after surgery, I continued to feel supported every step of the way. My favorite part is honestly the follow-up appointments -- they never feel rushed, and it's clear how much she genuinely cares about her patients and their recovery experience. Beyond the amazing care I loved being able to support and work with a woman in this industry. I'm so grateful for my experience and would absolutely recommend Dr. Florin to anyone looking for a skilled, compassionate, and trustworthy surgeon.

The woman I spoke to on the phone was so friendly that it actually made me want to come in. When I got there, the staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful. They took the time to show me different Jane Iredale products, test out shades on me, and even let me step outside with a mirror to see how everything looked in natural lighting, which I really appreciated. I ended up leaving with the perfect foundation and a powder SPF in the best shade. They also shared some great promotions they had going on. Honestly, such a great experience from start to finish. Will definitely be back!

We were freestyling it, which is a bit of a crazy thing to do when it comes to hair color. If you're going in to shop for hair stuff, I will recommend doing your own research before hand. I was told that they sometimes have a hair dresser who may be able to answer your questions, but sometimes she's not there.

With the confusion of all of this she forgot to give the coupon until the end. But Crystal knew she had a coupon because she told her she couldn't use it on a delivery order and didn't ask about it. When my daughter asked if she could use it, because that's the whole reason she came today- it expires... Crystal told her it's too late to use it. When my daughter came out and told me what happened, I walked her right back in and asked Crystal why she couldn't return this item and repurchase it with the coupon because that's the whole reason we came in?! Crystal said she didn't know if we could return it because we just bought it. Crystal: of course you can return something just purchased to correct a mistake. I know this. You know this.

The lady that's usually behind the counter was talking to another owner from somewhere else and completely ignored me as I was walking in. We made eye contact, I smiled at her, and she looked away. At the time I figured that maybe she just didn't actually see me come in. About five minutes later there were a few new customers that have walked in. She immediately stopped her conversation to say hi to them. Once when her conversation finally ended, she walks over to the customers and tells them to let her know if they needed help with anything then proceeded to go back to the counter. At that point, I understood what was happening and I decided to exit the store because I did not feel comfortable shopping somewhere where I wasn't welcome. I have shopped here multiple times and spent a lot of money on the products because I wanted to support a smaller company that carries a lot of the products that I use on my face. I am pretty bummed that that happened at the store since I have had good interactions with some of the other workers.
