I had gotten some sun earlier in the…read moreday, so my usual foundation shade no longer matched, and Gia took the time to help me find the perfect new shade. She truly went above and beyond. Not only was she incredibly knowledgeable and patient, but she also made me feel completely comfortable even though I was dealing with a skin breakout and feeling a little self-conscious. She recommended additional products to help my makeup apply and wear better, and she even helped apply everything so I could see the final result. Gia was kind, professional, and genuinely cared about making sure I left feeling confident. Customer service like this is rare, and I'm so grateful for her help. If you visit this Sephora, I highly recommend asking for Gia!

Needed some quick concealer for the day after a dermatologist appointment. Walked in and was…read moreignored. Tried locating what I was looking for, but needed some help. After walking around for about 15 mins I asked a woman for help and she very coolly told me she was busy. Ok. So it's super obvious I was being ignored. All the women who received help were white and dressed nicely. I call this phenomenon being "Pretty Womaned", lol. In a past life, I was a makeup artist and worked on a couple of film sets. None of the professional makeup artists I worked with who had been in the industry for about 30 years wore any make up. And I stopped wearing daily makeup after dealing with some significant health challenges. Personally, I choose good skin care over caking my face with too much toxic makeup. The reason I bring this all up is...be nice to all the people. Not just the white fancy ones. Or the ones caked with product. You never know who the person is that just walked through the door. Won't be back xoxo

I'm typically…read moresomeone who uses boring and medical-looking lotions and face washes, but when I started using the scrubee and super milk leave-in, my life CHANGED. Seems dramatic for items you could go without, but my newfound love for Lush has made a huge impact on my everyday routine. I look forward to every "everything" shower instead of it feeling like a chore. The cherry on top is that Lush gives back to regions where they source their ingredients, and is very vocal about social causes. This store specifically gifts many free samples as well. I feel like I'm in Lush psychosis because of how obsessed I've been since I discovered it.

They didn't have the shade I usually buy so I was trying on different ones to see if I could find one that fit and that was in stock. Kimberly nicely approached me and started helping me try on the available shades, the one shade that fit perfectly wasn't in stock and we couldn't get it online either, but she was extremely nice to get me sample, that'll probably last me a few months since I don't do my make up often, and she also advised me to look in other stores since it was on sale. I was lucky enough to find it at a different store and snatched it quickly. Thank you Kim!

Not uneven, not over-shaped, literally missing. The worst part is they covered it up with pencil so I wouldn't notice until I got home. That is completely unacceptable. All they did was refund the service, not even the tip I gave before realizing what they had done. After multiple complaints and constant back and forth, they gave me a $50 gift card, which doesn't even come close to covering the products I now have to buy to fill it in and try to grow it back. Save yourself the stress, frustration, and regret. Go somewhere else.

We were both so happy with the results. I would definitely come back for another makeup session before a special event.

If one walks in not wearing makeup or looking a certain way, the staff will most likely skip greeting you. And, no one will ask if you need assistance.

Nordstrom itself is still a great place to shop. This review is really for the free styling…read moreservice they offer. I was in need of a professional wardrobe after working from home the last few years. I set up an appointment with a stylist online and she called to ask what I was looking for, my sizes, color preferences etc. I was very specific- I needed an interview suit for my conservative industry, as well as day to day office pieces and shoes. I also said I was open to jewelry (costume - Nordstrom is one of the best stores for costume jewelry that is still high quality IMO). We set an appt and I cane in and she had reserved a large fitting room and had it filled with suits and separates. Everything in row sizes (I'm a 4 or a 6 based on the designer). Nice job of bringing in both high end and more reasonable prices. No shoes, no jewelry, no outfit suggestions. That was the "style" part I really wanted. Basically for a free service it's a nice time saver to have clothes pulled and ready for you to try on. But that's it. I was prepared to spend a lot of money because I hadn't shopped much in a long time and I ended up with a single suit, a blouse, and a random t shirt I later texted the same stylist to ask if she could pull some options for an upcoming wedding I had to go to. Never heard back.

Jennifer was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and so patient throughout the entire experience. I never felt rushed or pressured, and I left feeling much more confident and comfortable. Thank you, Jennifer M, for taking the time to help me and for turning what started as a stressful experience into such a positive one. Your patience and genuine care really stood out.
