Sephora US Reviews

I hate the new all white layout! It hurts my eyes!! The Dark Mode feature rolled out for people to use so eye strain doesn't get worse and sephora thought that doing the opposite would help for SephoraUS! Sephora needs to rethink there color layout better because since it is morw of an eye strain,... Show more it gets used less now. Plus, the should have fixed SephoraUS instead of just thinking color layout which is least important. They have been having the same issue for over 3 years now!! The share icon on SephoraUS makes SephoraUS freeze. There has been sooo many updates you would think this bug would get fixed, yet it is still there. Therefore, sephora is not paying attention to these reviews or else this bug would not be there. Can you please fix the share button so it stops freezing the darn app!! Fix your app instead of giving people eyestrain!! Since the share icon has not been fixed for so long i had to give a low rating for lack of detail by Sephora app developers. And yes I have updated software for both phone & app all these years, still same issue and a new one- rethink your all white layout!

I love Sephora and I used to love their app until the last month or so when it would sign me out of my account. Normally it wouldn’t be an issue, and I would just sign in again. But whenever I try to sign in, I get an error message stating my email address or password is incorrect even though I kno... Show more w the information entered is accurate. I’ve reset my password just in case, and I still get this message. I’ve had to call in 3 times to get my account unlocked, which required additional password changes, and when asked no one was aware of any issues and I was told to keep trying. One person recommended I just use my browser instead, which negates SephoraUS ’s purpose. My name and all my information shows up on SephoraUS in my profile but when I try to do anything it asks me to sign in and the cycle begins. Seriously fed up with this and the lack of assistance when calling in as they hang up if you so much as utter the word “ok”. Lacking the quality of service their known for.

First, I was not impressed with the look of SephoraUS. It looks like it was made for cell phones because it was not a full screen so it made it hard to see using my iPad. Not a big deal but still. I know you make a killing Sephora why not update your app? Secondly, I had issues using a Happy her g... Show more ift card I received for Christmas. No matter what I did it would not take it or even my debit card. I had to enter the gc as credit(per gc instructions)but kept saying it was an invalid cc and did it with my debit card too. Kept saying it’s invalid. I tried it on my computer using Microsoft edge and it worked. Sephora’s website says to use google chrome or Microsoft edge to order when I tried Internet explorer. Plus SephoraUS doesn’t give you the option to delete your cc info, you have to go to the website to delete. And it also doesn’t give you the option to enter a gift card. Only credit card info can be entered. You have to go to the website to enter a Sephora gc. What? Why?...The website took the gc and my debit card with no issue. Looks like you all need to clean SephoraUS up. I deleted it.

First off let me start off by saying I absolutely love Sephora and it’s my favorite makeup store! The original app layout was easy to navigate and get the hang of it. I never had a single problem with it and I loved shopping with SephoraUS ! Which is why after only a few months on SephoraUS I beca... Show more me a consecutive yearly rouge beauty insider. For those of you not familiar with their lingo a rouge beauty insider is when you spend at least $1,000 dollars within a year you get top offers, discounts and receive free shipping on all your orders. I also became heavily reliant on their try it on live feature to try on products.

However the new updated layout of SephoraUS is confusing and pretty frustrating/difficult to navigate/get used to. It has been at least a year or 2 already since it’s been updated and I still cannot get used to it. The try it on live feature hasn’t worked in over a year already which is extremely frustrating and disappointing. When you’re scrolling through shopping clicking on one item which leads you to the next on SephoraUS once you click on your cart you completely lose your shopping/search progress. You can’t get back to it unless you remembered the name of the company/product of the item you were last viewing. Which is why this year I’ve only spent $273 dollars.

I like most things about SephoraUS . It is easy to navigate and shop from. The thing that is frustrating me so much is samples subbed for things I have no interest in, samples just not being included, beauty offers not being shipped. Every time they do this it makes me shop other places more. The n... Show more umber of times they are messing up orders latley is hilarious.
And the virtual artist doesn't work well to use it live on you. Putting colors up on their models works, but mostly everything looks nonexistent or the wrong color in the live one.
I also wish that you could write notes to yourself in SephoraUS . I get so many samples and use some things so sparingly that it would make organization and picking products so much easier for me. Like alot of other people I usually have so much going on. But if I could put all those thoughts down by products like in my my loves or just somewhere else in on SephoraUS it would really make me love it.

I shop Sephora frequently so SephoraUS made since. I do not like the search feature because you have to be sure of the spelling of the product to get the search results you want. Other sites will at least take a guess at what you are trying to look for. I do like it’s suggested product listings fo... Show more r me. I looked up collagen and found out through suggested products they sell all types of vitamins and supplements. These were Items I needed but did not think to find on their app. I love the account pull up where I can see history of purchases with pictures of products I bought. This makes it easy for me to go back and do a product review, a re-purchase, or price comparison. There is a like feature that saves items that you do not want to purchase now but would like to purchase at a later date. Returns are super easy thru SephoraUS but the customer reviews help me decide if I should or shouldn’t purchase something which prevents returns by proper research. The reviews are complete with each persons skin tone and skin description to find a relatable reviewer.

App works decently well while in use. But it drives me nuts that if I switch apps even briefly, when I return to Sephora, my search/displayed item has been cleared and I’m back on the home page every time. That totally stinks for multitasking, which is all I’m ever doing on my phone. Also, I totall... Show more y agree with another review which suggests better options for viewing the names of different product colors without having to click through each one. Similar issue in the review photos section: you are given the option to filter user photos based on the product color, but often only the color descriptions (I.e. “warm dusty rose”) are displayed here, not the actual color name. If the colors do not have descriptions, then no text is included and you’re forced to guess which color is which. There could be a lot more organization surrounding product colors in general; often I’m looking for something in a specific color family, so improved search/display features on that front would be helpful. Other than that, I haven’t had too many issues with crashes/glitches or functionality.

I love Sephora. I mean, I am Rouge! So, I have shopped quite a bit. But I find SephoraUS frustrating because I looked and looked for the list of all of the items I have “loved” so that I could go back and buy them. Now, if you search “lists” on SephoraUS , it takes you back to the area of SephoraU... Show more S where your orders,buy it again, account, flash, reservations, Samples & Rewards,Beauty Advisor Recommendations, & Color IQ & Beauty Traits menus are listed. This same area can be found, when logged in, by clicking on your name at the bottom of any screen. But, when I’m in the mobile version of Sephora using Safari, I’m given the choice to see the Loves menu where my saved products are. However this menu is entirely missing from the Sephora app and I find this quite frustrating. It’s so much more convenient to be in SephoraUS but I constantly have to bounce back and forth just to access my saved loved items. Please correct this in SephoraUS ! You are deterring sales! (And this is coming from someone who works in eCommerce/product Content for fast fashion. Retailer)

I love SephoraUS because it’s easy to find whatever you’re looking for. However I’ve noticed that the colors on screen vary wildly from what they look like in person. Many reds appear more purple or orange in person, and often it’s difficult to tell if the makeup is suitable for winter, summer, au... Show more tumn, or spring skin tones. I’ve learned that it’s best to use SephoraUS to search for potential colors you might want to try and then go to a store to actually try it on.

If I could suggest to SephoraUS creators: it would be helpful if the colors were more accurately displayed to save people the headache of thinking a lip color is deep red but having it turn out to be more of a plum. It would also help if part of the description included a list of the skin tones certain colors would best suit (not just warm vs cool either, I’m talking the full four seasons), because having one model with a chalk white arm, one with a deep tan arm, and one with a super dark chocolate arm doesn’t cover any of the medium skin tones that most people fall into.

Sephora is one of the better retail store applications. To start with the design while a bit compact and old fashioned is easy to navigate. Mostly any section in SephoraUS can be reached from the side menu. SephoraUS allows you to search for products in a number of ways whether it be by brand, wh... Show more at’s new, what’s on sale, luxury items, for men, which is helpful to me since most of the items cater to women, and other labels. Users can also use SephoraUS to see the latest promotions from the inbox section. SephoraUS also has an email me option for items that are out of stock so you will be notified when more comes in. SephoraUS allows users to search for store listings and manage their account whether it be to edit information or track store points. SephoraUS is even more beneficial to women allowing the booking of makeovers appointments and more tools that could help them come to decisions with the products being sold by the retailer.

I’ve used SephoraUS for years to shop online and overall it works very well. I love that I can save my products in a loves list and that it saves all my past purchases from both online and in store. The live chat feature is fun, I love answering questions and interacting with other girls who have ... Show more similar interests. However it’s always been a bit glitchy for me. Every time I answer a question, it kicks me back to the top of the list so I have to scroll down every single time to see other questions. It’s always done this for me which is super annoying. It also has a tendency to suddenly zoom in while in the chat. I usually can double tap the screen and it will un-zoom but after the most recent update, that stopped working. Now I have to close the chat completely and re-enter for it to display normally. I wish they would fix these bugs to make it more enjoyable. I’ve also never been able to figure out the online community tab. It has never seemed very user friendly for someone who isn’t familiar with that part of SephoraUS .

Love SephoraUS . One of the best shopping apps generally. Two complaints, which is the 4 stars, is when looking for foundation or lip colors etc. you have to click the colored square without an option of seeing also or in lieu of the name of the color. For example, if you’re looking for a specific ... Show more colored lipstick, you click through the squares of color to find the name. Searching the name of a specific color doesn’t always work. The second is sometimes the “try on” live, the color looks totally insane And not at all what it really looks like in person (because it looks truly. Crazy). Or, on the other hand, if you use a model,it’s very difficult to even see the product preview. For example, highlighter, eyeshadow or liner, and blush are really difficult to see. the existence of swatches and the try on option is great, I just wish it was tweaked a little. That definitely sets it apart from the Ulta app, which 9/10 doesn’t have any swatches in their product description. But the do let you filter by name. That’s it. Otherwise. Great app. Love Sephora!

I do love most of the functionalities of SephoraUS, but there are a few features I’d love to see.

My biggest peeve: can we add a swipe gesture to go back to search results when viewing an item detail? Reaching my thumb to perfectly target the back arrow, that is so tiny and 15px distance t... Show more o the hamburger menu. I always seem to fat finger the back arrow because it’s way too close to another tap target. The back arrow and hamburger menu are simply way too close for it to be a pleasant experience. How about introducing a tab bar instead like Instagram or Facebook?

Also, truncating the text instead of wrapping a long name to two lines in the list view is confusing when products are so similar, being able to view the full name creates more value because then I have to click through everything. I’d prefer to see the full name instead of “Yves Saint Laurent Powder F....” <- no idea what comes after that if the brand name is too long.

Additionally, I like the star rating in the list view, but 4.5 stars for 2 users vs. 2,000 users is a huge difference. Putting the quantity of users to indicate volume is infinitely more valuable to me and saves me a tap.

I do love the checkout flow. Very simplified and easy to understand and place order.

But, I still think there can be some minor improvements that go a long way.

SephoraUS is very user friendly and comprehensive. It’s full of lots of special features but I mainly use it to shop and read product reviews. Unfortunately these days new products may have plenty of reviews—more than you’d expect at that point—but they’re all or almost all from people that have... Show more been given the product for free in exchange for feedback. For one thing, I see a lot of the exact same words/phrasing on many different products making the opinions feel like canned responses. Also, without knowing who is providing the product and for what reason/program it’s being provided by and what the relationship/role of the reviewer is to them, I can’t help but be skeptical and wonder if their glowing reviews are actually provided so as to obtain or “earn” more free products.

Also, like another reviewer mentioned, I really hate that they removed the Q&A feature on each product’s description. That was often very helpful when the descriptions were too short and uninformative.

I’ve always been a dime store make up shopper and never cared much for luxury brands or spending much on skin care. That said, my needs were simpler for a long time. Discovering Sephora the last six months or so and particularly SephoraUS has been so helpful. Seeing what I’ve bought before to be s... Show more ure I get the right shades, having the ability to return and replace shades that don’t work getting free trial and sample sizes to test all makes it worth it. I still don’t spend on luxury brands but I can comparison shop much more easily and with confidence. SephoraUS can be a little glitchy at times and though I have a color profile, I’m not confident that it is choosing make up shades for me on that basis. It would be great if it could show that it is a match, a near match or that the skin profile color couldn’t be matched. I’d be much more confident trying new shades in that case. Overall awesome app and awesome service model. Love Sephora.

Amazing app love using it because I can use SephoraUS and a lot look up stuff on web browser also super easy to use makes it easier to find the free offers that go with your purchase. And shows me new things before they drop and come to SephoraUS 1st before going online gives me a chance to score... Show more new products before other people or know they are coming soon I love using SephoraUS . It’s so user friendly. Only complaint is when I want to look at Sephora on the web browser it redirects me to SephoraUS sometimes that fine but not when I already have something open I wish I could just use it when opening app but still 5 stars. I love that it suggest products I have viewed or hearted at the bottom so I don’t forget about them. It keeps me logged in so my items stay in my cart. If you don’t use SephoraUS you definitely should one of the things I love the most is if you are going down a list of products and click one when you go back it takes you to the spot you were in unlike the browns we where it sends you back to the top

I ordered product on April 29,2930. They advice me that it will not be delivered till May 26. That pretty much a month. They say is due to low staffing due to the pandemic. Understandable. . My daughter and I live in the same house and she has gotten her deliveries by the 5th day she ordered it.... Show more All her other items she ordered after mine have come on time. How is that when they are suppose to be all late. Me and her ordered on Mother’s day. Is 4 days later and she got it today. I called to find out when mine from the same day is coming. They said also on the 26th of Nay. Figure that! I’m done with them. I even sent an email to customer service. Days later I get their typical email they sent to everyone regarding the delay due to pandemic.

Great app, but with a few tweaks could be even better. On the off-chance developers actually read these reviews, my suggestions are as follows: (1) when choosing samples, you have the ability to view the full size product to read all its attendant information, but in order to navigate back to your... Show more basket, you have to manually close out of the product you are viewing and click on your basket again—quick fix would be to create back arrows that automatically navigate back to the basket; (2) the full size product view is not available when looking at the trial sample promos so you have to close out of your basket and search for the product, then go back into your basket manually—adding the same navigation options described above to view the full product and navigate back to your basket from that view would make SephoraUS perfect.

I love Sephora, and SephoraUS ! Always fast shipping, always great customer service when you do need them. Package lost in transit? They’ll send you a new package out ASAP with all the items your originally ordered! Not to mention the endless brands they have - always quick to have the latest and g... Show more reatest in makeup, skincare, perfumes…everything! My favorite part is the Sephora rewards.

SephoraUS is incredibly frustrating to use. First off, while scrolling through reviews you end up accidentally marking reviews helpful or not helpful...how is that helpful?! Who knows what is legit and what is accidental? I mark reviews accidentally every single time! Secondly, there are glitches ... Show more when it comes to browsing the products and categories. If you click on a product and then go back, it goes back to the beginning, even if you’re pages in, which is annoying and you have to scroll back down to where you were. The UI is just very difficult to navigate in SephoraUS. The website isn’t much better. It’s also impossible to view the item number of your Play box (the monthly sub)on SephoraUS , you have to go through a million screens on the desktop site to find it. The tracking updates are slow via SephoraUS as well. It’s just very muddled how all the bells and whistles work. They should hire my husband’s UI company to fix this mess lol.

I frequently shop between Sephora and Ulta. I must say Alta has a better rewards program hands down. I don’t like that being a Rouge remember you are offered to choose from samples and small products if you choose to use your rewards. I don’t want small products or samples I want a discount off of ... Show more my transaction for being a member like Ulta. Anyways now that’s out of the way the Sephora app is way better than the Ulta app. I love that you can try on the make up and/or color live in SephoraUS . I love love love the fact that they do a true match from one foundation to another. I am constantly looking for the best and being a perfect match with UD 3.25 I’m able to use that color to find a true match for me with any foundation. I like the fact that you can search your frequently purchased items. I am very happy to see Apple Pay integrated in SephoraUS ..

This is hands down the best shopping app I’ve ever tried!! I’ve deleted idk how many apps because they made shopping more difficult and who needs that?? Or, they were just difficult to navigate in general.. I think it’s great how it keeps tabs of All your purchases, online and in-store, so that’s y... Show more ou never have to go back and try to remember what that one thing was that you loved so much, but just can’t remember which shade/brand/style/etc it was? Everything is right there, and it also keeps up with past orders, so, if you need to return something, or exchange something, all the info the clerk will need is right there. I have zero complaints about it! Well.. except for that it’ll remind me I have stuff in my basket, and that I should really go back and get it lol..
