So Sephora is on it's way to Australia? Get excited


I'm sure by now every person and their pet rocks have heard that Sephora is on its way to Australia. YES GET EXCITED! I have a Sephora savings account in my bank now just waiting for the day it opens... But moving on with that, here are some reasons why you should be more excited. Because trust me, even if you've read these reasons a thousand times, you're still so excited you're going to want to burst with happiness.

1. New brands
We all know that with the introduction of Sephora brings so much loved brands that are just impossible to get here. Marc Jacobs Beauty, Kat Von D, Tarte, Make Up Forever, Sephora’s own brand and many, many more. They’re all coming. Which means for the first time ever, we can get these products here in Australia. And that’s a beautiful thing! Also Sephora has the best sort of sample boxes and little rollerballs perfumes, which we don’t have now. And unlike staff at a makeup counter, they’re not trying to promote one brand so they’ll be able to really give you the best option for your needs.

2. Competitive prices
Outside of Mecca, Myer and David Jones have a huge share of the market in high end makeup. There are basically no other stores that stock it. Therefore they hold about 60% of the country's premium makeup market, worth more than $1.8 billion. With the introduction of Sephora, at US prices, finally the outrageous pricing for makeup will end. Have you noticed that stores like Mecca are dropping their prices to match international standards? It’s all in preparation for the opening of Sephora. What was stopping them from doing this before?

3. One stop shop for happiness
With a beautiful two storey building for all your beauty shopping needs, there’s no need for you to go anywhere else. Things from nails, lipstick, hair, fragrance and skincare. You can get it all in the one glorious shop.


Slowly but surely, my Sephora savings fund is growing, and I’m sure yours is too. For any more information, check out the websites below. All my information has come from those sites and all the images are from the Sephora Australia Facebook page which I will also link. I hope you’re as excited as I am!

One bad thing though, THEY'RE NOT STOCKING URBAN DECAY. Looks like I still need to head to BeautyBay to get my UD fix.
