i love love love this Sephora! It is so organized and easy to look / find whatever you need. And if you can't find it, there is always a friendly and helpful staff member to assist. These girls make you feel like you are shopping with your best friend. Giving honest opinions and helping you find the best item for you. Thanks Sephora! read more

Went here yesterday with a friend to get a makeup session being that my friend is new to makeup and needs to see what product would be best for her and how to use them. Now, we were prepared to purchase anything we liked. We asked for some help, being that we werent offered any, and were told to make an appointment at least 2weeks in advanced! So none of the 5 girls standing arounding chatting would be able to help us. We were there around 445 5pm, not near the closing hours. Are you kidding me? We were probably going to be the easiest customers being that we were open to any products suggested. Bought 1 product and tried to purchase another from the Jcpenny. One girl said we could no problem, and another made a face and said no. The one who said no ended up scanning anyway. So, we went to Urban Decay in Macys, that had ONE girl working and took us immediately. We dropped $200 on products from someone who was willing to help and give us true customer service. She also did an amazing job. Shame on Sephora for poor customer service and poor attitude Not ever coming back. read more

Melanie is so awesome! She helped me with getting samples. She totally knew her stuff and applied makeup so I can try different ones and helped me with getting samples to take home and try out. She is just so nice and helpful! Thanks so much!! read more

And there are quick came in today to get the Tom Ford perfume I knew what I wanted they had the perfume in stock, I paid and left quick and easy. $$$ I even used my points today FINALLY and got a gift set of sample cleaners that are great for sensitive skin. Cant wait to try them tonight and maybe do a mommy tutorial on them. read more

This store is absolutely super so is the one in JC penny! Thankfully they hire people who help you without making you feel pressured or following you around and being overly friendly. Perfect! I highly recommend anyone shop at this Sephora read more

So I've been having to switch between foundations and when I got to the store today Marie and another attendant at the store told me straight up fix your dehydrated skin and the rest will follow. I received a hydrating facial today and I am looking forward to the products I bought to help my skin. Marie fingers crossed that this will help! read more

My first experience with this store was disappointing, i walked in looking for a particular lipstick and couldn't find anyone to help me locate it and when i did finally find someone i was rudely interrupted by 2 pre-teen girls who got more attention from the clerk than i did and left to go assit them...i was eventually left on my own to search for the lipstick myself. My second experience was no better than the first, i went in with high hopes of finding a leave in conditioner that was recommended by another store that sephora did sell the product. I walked in and saw 4 employees standing near the door and was not greeted, i had to interrupt their gossiping to ask for assistance and when i finally got one of their attention i kindly asked: me: "would you happen to know where i could find this specific leave in conditioner?" clerk: "we don't carry that brand here and never did" me: "oh, i was told by this other store that you did..." clerk: "well they lied. sorry" and walked away as i was standing there in shock i found someone else to help me locate a back up conditioner that i remembered i used to use and she also seemed irritated to help me as well. Once i got the product i went to check out and the cashier asked if i found everything ok and i mentioned that i did but the other employees were a little rude to me she ignored what i had said and just gave me the total.....really? no im sorry? no let me get the manager for you? no anything? i spent a good amount of money that day just to get treated like i had a contagious rash on my face or something.... i will definitely not go back a third time no matter how convenient the location is or how they are the only store that sell a certain product. -__- read more

I went in for foundation matching and Ashley was terrific! She really spent time with me making sure that we found the right shade. We even tried several foundation options since the one I originally went in to the store wanting wasn't working for my skin tone. I have had terrible experiences in the past at other locations getting matching to colors that were way to dark for my light skin or made me look orange, but was super happy with this experience. I was really impressed with Ashley's dedication, knowledge of foundations, and genuine interest to help me. I bought a foundation I was happy with! Thank you! read more

Horrible experience....inattentive staff, rude and showed 0 interest in trying to help!! After I asked for help and was asked to wait for a "color consultant" to open up I waited about 10 minutes and finally decided to leave! Literally all the ladies were standing in the middle of the floor having conversations.....will give my business to any other store but this one! read more

Sephora is by far the best makeup store around. I buy 100% of my makeup at sephora because they have the widest selection of wonderful makeup products. Unfortunately the products are not cheap, but they are quality. Here's what I love about this store: very friendly staff who are always available to help and are knowledgeable (love the Woodland Hills store, but they're a little clueless) and they are great with returns. Here's my critique about the store: sometimes I find items cheaper on sephora.com and sometimes the store is out of stock on items I want. Suggestion: Shop at sephora.com. First off, you don't have to deal with the crazy mall parking. You get free shipping if you spend $50, which is way too easy to do. I've never found an item at a store that wasn't online. You can return anything at the store, so you don't have to worry about paying to ship it back. You get free samples with every order and they always have special coupon codes to get free goodies (the coupon codes are on the site under "beauty deals"). They also have weekly deals to get discounted or free with purchase items. Make sure you are signed up to be a beauty insider (can do it online or in store) because they have amazing VIB gifts that you get for free, over time, just for spending money at the store. Also, I love their hair products, but usually can find similar products for considerable cheaper on amazon.com or beauty-mart.com. There is also this great little beauty supply store in Canyon Country next to Albertsons that has great deals on high end hair products. read more

Ladies here are so helpful and always very informed regarding product knowledge, lay out is easy to navigate.

I love sephora. I really do. But I HATE some of the staff here. I understand it gets busy but they rarely greet customers. I've stepped in so many times and have only been asked if things were going well once. I've had one good experience where I approached a sales rep (as I always have to do here)... And she gladly helped me out. But today's service takes the cake. The filipino-asian(?) Is that what she is? I don't know. She was wearing dark lipstick. She's only like 5'3". Holy shit she was just standing around. I approached her and woooooooow, attitude problem. She helped me find what I was looking for, but didn't offer any other options or recommendations like the people (or even some of her coworkers-wish I knew their names) at other locations do. And to top it all off, she just stood there two feet away from me and didn't even bother saying anything else. There were plenty of customers and she preferred to just stand there rather helping out. Honestly, it's hard to get help here sometimes which is disappointing esp. when I've got super sensitive skin so I have to be careful with what I put on my face cause I'll end up breaking out. read more

I LOVE Sephora but this particular store is DIRTY. Makeup was smeared on the display cases, trash cans were overflowing, and the testers were grubby and looked completely unsanitary. Four employees were gathered at the registers with no one in line. As I was walking out, Taylor approached me. She was courteous and friendly but leaving that filth was an easy decision. read more

Not sure what all the bad reviews are about, but this Sephora was fine. It was a little bit on the messier end, but nonetheless, always have what is needed. The people that work there are also really friendly and are very helpful. I definitely like this Sephora more than the one from the Topanga mall. They always have someone here ready to help, whereas the Topanga mall is always extremely busy. read more

Worst customers service I've ever expirance. Been here several times and have not had one decent services yet. Everytime I ask for help the lady's just point and say no we don't have it. Never coming here again. But thanks for the WiFi so I could wright this review. read more

Their customer service is terrible. Went in with my mom and sister and not one person asked if we needed help. They just stood around gossiping to each other and then when we were checking out the woman was so angry and short with us. Won't be shopping here again. read more

The customer service was rude and unhelpful. Two of the girls who work their say they don't have a certain product in a certain size and were rude snobby and unhelpful. Next time I'll go to Santa Monica store. The funny part was it took the front desk clerk 30 seconds to find what the first two clerks said that don't have and she was so nice and helpful and obviously wanted to help. Get your act together on customer service guys. read more

The worst customer service ever you can walk around and look confused and no one will ever bother skip this go to Macy's

I'm shockingly disappointed. I was in here with my daughter and I was looking for a good complexion kit, just something that was easy to travel with on vacations and could fit in my purse for quick touch ups. While looking around the store a sales women approached me (I'm not calling her a rep because I'm sure Sephora would disapprove) and asked if I needed help. I told her what I was looking for and she seemed pleasant, not necessarily eager to help. While trying on make up (on herself - not sure why) I told her that the color she was using was too dark. I got a smart ass remark from her telling me that she was, too light. Her comment rubbed me the wrong way. I'd rather spend a little more $$$ at Macy's for better treatment. I also thought that it was rude to speak like that to me in front of my daughter. I left and I won't be returning anytime soon. I didn't catch her name but she looked like a sad 50's pin up knockoff. Corporate will be hearing from me. read more

I was just in there wanting to know about any deals and this young blonde girl told me they were having no deals but when I got home found out they were having tons of deals. Wish she knew that info before giving out false information. read more

The staff was awfully rude. I left and went to ulta to friendlier more informed staff.

Worst customer service ever! I understand that Sephora has a great return policy but I was treated like a thief trying to return an unwanted gift. All the girls just stood around, then they all seemed to gang up on me because it wasn't on my BI card. read more

Who doesn't love sephora??? OMG THIS PLACE IS AMAZING. I just wanted to yelp about the ladies who help me out at this store. YASMIN and ALEX were super amazing and helpful throughout everything they know their knowledge and know what they are talking about. And there makeovers omg both are very different styles but both super amazing at their job. read more

Check it out! it looks like they have some new happy people there! im talking about some new staff,,I am happy to use my 15% as a VIB Member.. got my fix, but special thanks to "Tamika" for assisting me.. she was gracious, knowledgeable, and so far the nicest in that joint. The rest are just talking to one another trying to kill time I suppose. read more

The salesrep was really helpful, her name is Stacie. She was very patient and had lots of knowledge about the colognes, that I had questions about. Definitely buying here again. read more

How can you love shopping for makeup when the employees make it a bad experience every time you go? I don't know if it's ok for the employees to be doing their own makeup instead of helping out the customers. I needed help choosing a product and I was right next to an employee and she was to busy doing her makeup while she noticed I was looking at her and she continued to act as she didn't see me. I didn't have to be the one to ask for help when it's her job to give customer service. Such a disappointment read more

I'm really happy I decided to come here! Marie helped me out right away and was super sweet and helpful. She helped me find a new primer, foundation and concealer. I am definitely returning to this store for all my make up needs. read more

I absolutely love makeup shopping especially at Sephora. But, I've had far too many experiences in this store when I walk in and I get a look from the employees who have a LOT of attitude and don't even care to ask how I'm doing. There are a few sweet girls, but for the most part they're so rude. I dread going into that location. I notice that they have talked about me before on their little headsets. read more

Been here quite a few times and every time none of the employees are willing to help. You will be ignored and at one point I could have sworn the employee was hiding. You won't be acknowledged or helped. Better to go elsewhere. read more

Bummer. Went here on my birthday. They ran out of all bday gifts. They don't know when they'll get more Nars lip pencils. "Just keep checking back." read more

I asked a sales lady where the Sephora cream blush was and all she said was: discontinued and walked away. rude short and snooty and I thought fine, I go buy my stuff somewhere else! half ways out the door another girl asked if I needed help so I have her a shot, her name was Joana I believe, with amazing make up in her face, suuuper friendly. she told me the same ,that the product was discontinued but she will find me something like that....within 2 minutes I had the perfect product I was looking for and even cheaper. I truly hope the other lady will learn from Joana!!! she was awesome! read more

Excellent store, employees always have a great atmosphere and are always helpful. I've been congrats here for years and I will be coming here many more years. Thank you read more

I went in yesterday and was acknowledged right off the bat! I need a foundation that was long lasting and matched my skin and the lady gave me samples and demonstrated! She also assessed my skin care routine and overall makeup routine!!! I was really impressed with how personalized the attention I received was and how she found the best product for me not just the up sale and most expensive. i got all the products she recommended and more! Im wearing my new foundation today and absolutely love it!!! I also signed up for the rewards program they have which was quick and easy!! Way better service than makeup counters or competitors. Thanks Sephora!! read more

Usually the staff at Sephora are really nice, but today that was not the case. I went in for my bday gift and to buy a lip stick that the website listed on sale for $9. After walking around aimlessly someone asked if I needed help. She look as confused as I was on where to find the product. She said it's either here or over there and pointed across the store. I told her which one I was looking for, but she had already turned and started to walk away. I mentioned it was on sale on their website and she said "I think it's just online, they were on sale here last week" I said really it doesn't say online only and she walked away asked someone else, but never came back to answer me. I ended up just buying a trial size mascara. The girl at the register never cracked a smile. She asked if I was a member and I gave her my info. She said "do you want to get your birthday gift now?" Ok so obviously that's what I want since it is MY BIRTHDAY!!! Not even a happy birthday. It looked like it killed her just to say the obligatory have a good day. I don't think I will be going back, free gift or not. The staff at Ulta are so much friendlier. read more

I went in the other day and this one girl working there was so helpful. I needed to try out a few perfumes and she was so helpful in getting me samples. This store is a little smaller than other Sephora's I have been in, but they have a great selection of beauty products. read more

One of the best Sephoras around. The customer service here is above and beyond. The staff was so helpful in explaining the difference between a few products I had been considering and demonstrating the two. I also received some great recommendations on products I didn't even come in to look at. Personality and helpfulness abound. The selection here was fantastic and the the product samples/demos were much cleaner than many of the other Sephoras I have been in. I really like this location and will definitely be back for more cosmetic suggestions and purchases. And bonus: they are dog friendly! Yay! read more

Nice place and the staff isn't pushy to make you buy things.

Hello, I am fairly new to Sephora and so I made an online appointment for a 45 minute custom makeover at 3:30 in store #3628, Valencia CA. I watch You Tube makeup videos so I already had a wishlist of products to purchase that afternoon, in addition to any new items that I would be introduced to. The confirmation email instructed me to arrive 10 minutes prior to my scheduled time. I arrived 20 minutes early and immediately had trouble making eye contact with anyone who worked there. I was completely ignored, to my surprise. Finally, I interrupted an employee who was speaking to another employee and asked if I could wait until my appt time. I was told the makeup person wouldn't be arriving until 3:30. About 10 minutes later, I was greeted again by the same beauty advisor who asked if they could apply a mask while I was waiting. I responded that I'd had a facial a few hours prior because I wasn't notified a mask was included so I politely passed. I continued to sit and wait on a stool at a beauty station where I was instructed. This station was very cluttered, had a dirty dusting wand and other items that appeared to belong to an employee. This did not make a good impression on me. While I sat there, not once did any employee look at me or acknowledge me in any way. It made me feel like I was not an important customer at all. When the clock struck 3:40, I was done waiting and walked out. No one followed up with me to perhaps say the make up person was running late. They just did not take an interest in me. By the way, it was my birthday... read more

Really helpful staff make this store easy to find what I need. I also love the variety of brands. I just wish they carried Bobbi Brown.

I had an amazing experience at this store. Shamika one of the make up specialist was a great help when I was trying to find the perfect red lipstick. She was very attentive to what I was looking for and was very patient with me, not rushing me or pushing me to buy something I didn't want. She took the time to show me a couple of different brands and various shades also giving me make up tips along the way. I will definitely be coming back to her for any of my make up needs. Thanks Shamika! read more
