Exact date cult US beauty store is set to open first UK shop

THE exact date a popular cult US beauty store is set to open in the UK has been revealed.

The much-anticipated launch of the first Sephora UK store is coming next week on March 8.

Shoppers will find the store in Westfield London, White City.

The huge store spans over 600sqm, offering over 100 brands to eager customers.

It comes following Sephora's online move in October last year, when it opened a new website up to UK shoppers.

The website Feel Unique instead became sephora.co.uk.

There will be a huge range of 135 brands available in the new store.

These include GXVE by Gwen Stefani, MILK, r.e.m.beauty by Ariana Grande, ONE/SIZE by Patrick Starr, Refy, Makeup by Mario, Fenty Beauty, and Sephora’s own Sephora Collection.

The most eager shoppers who rock up to the shop on opening day will get a free limited edition gift bag - available for the first 300 customers who visit.

They will also be able to see a "special  guest performance", and a masterclass by make up founder Natasha Denona later in the day.

The rest of the week will host several masterclasses with brand experts including Tarte, ILIA, The Inkey List, and Huda Beauty.

The new shop will also feature:

• Sephora’s very first Lip Bar, offering customers an array of colours and finishes​
• Hot on Social corner, with the 10 most talked about products on social media
• A Benefit Brow Bar​
• Personalised gifting and gift wrapping​
• Fragrance engraving service

Katie Wyle, general manager at Westfield London said: "The store opening will be a big event in our visitors’ calendars, especially as we’ve seen so much excitement from beauty fans since the announcement of Sephora’s arrival.

"We’re thrilled to be adding Sephora to our growing beauty offer at Westfield London, giving visitors access to some of the best brands and enhanced in-store experiences.”

It's important to note that Sephora products can often be pricey.

So, it's always a good idea to shop around for products to make sure you don't miss out on any deals.

You can use comparison sites like the Latest Deals app or Google Shopping to see how much an item costs elsewhere.

And make sure to factor in added delivery costs if you order any products to your home - they might hike the price up depending on how big the order is.
