I came here today to find some new products and I have not really been to a beauty store in like a decade to shop for myself and so I was a little intimidated and a little overwhelmed but Val was lovely and helped me find what I needed helped me match my skin tone to a new makeup brand and they had so many options for skin care and hair care and even men's products. I had no idea there were so many different things you could do to your skin to make it bright and useful and hydrated. I recommend this store. It is clean and organized and the staff is great and they have a loyalty program as well.. read more

Regular Shoppers to PB and accessible locations. But they're out of stock regularly on products I buy. This last visit they were out again for the large amount but I offered to purchase 3 of the smaller sizes if the gave them to me at the price of the larger. NOPE. So I bought what I needed put the rest back and bought what I needed online. Customer Retention is critical in today's business environment read more

Miss pink hair was in a bad mood today when I asked her if she can apply the online and in-store 20% coupon to my item I was told by pink hair this item was NOT part of the promo..hmmm Now tell me how I went online after I made my purchase only to see that YES IT DOES QUALIFY for the 20% discount online. Not even leaving the parking lot, I walked right back inside to return the item and was told quickly and strategically that I was not able to return any items that left the store and I can only get a gift card. Go figure. (Btw nothing on their website says this) To me, this is terrible business. Ulta and Sephora would never do something like this to their customers. This was the last time I will shop at this planet beauty or planet beauty in general. Sad, I've been supporting this small business for so long and now I'm feeling taken advantage of by them. read more

This review is for the makeup artist Sarah. I was referred to her by a friend to have my makeup done for my wedding. I made an appointment, and we got started right on time. She asked me what I wanted. I told her I am very simple, just wanted to have a very clean look, no heavy eye makeup, some sort of red lip color, and most importantly, NOT to turn red from the heat that day. When I get hot or flustered I turn into a tomato, so I needed her to make sure that would not occur. It took about an hour for her to do my makeup. She is really sweet and fun to talk with. She didn't mind that my friend tagged along and we all chatted together as I got my makeup done. I absolutely loved my makeup, it was beautiful! I never wear anything more than powder, and most of the time just moisturizer, so I am not used to having makeup on. But it felt light and I couldn't even tell all day that it was on. Most importantly, it stood up all day. Never turned red, never needed to reapply anything, even the lipstick lasted from noon until I got home around 9 PM. If you need to have your makeup done, I highly recommend making an appointment with Sarah! read more

I just went into planet beauty in Newport Beach off of jamboree. I went up to a woman with dark hair and asked her about a keratase product she immediately said WE Don't Have That then I went on to explain to her what I used to have which was a sav she looked at me with a strange look as I was explaining to her then I said you don't know what I'm talking about and she said clearly NO so I just left very frustrated really what I was looking for is something like the product that I used to have she was very un helpful and clearly did not know what I was talking about nor did she want to help me so I will definitely not recommend this place to anyone ugggg read more

Great Customer service and quality products! After 26 years of no make-up, it was finally time learn what and how to use beauty products! The assistant was incredibly helpful when showing me products and suggesting where I should use certain products and how I should apply them. I walked in a lost puppy and walked out with a bag of makeup and confident that I could finally apply it correctly! I had one assistant walk me through the store showing me all these bronzers, eye liners, shadows, and blush. It was so incredibly helpful and I looked professional at the video shoot I had last week. The products they suggested are all very high quality and after 2 weeks of using them, I am very satisfied! I will be back to try new products and refill the ones I already purchased there! read more

I love the employees here They recommended Radial mascara yesterday and I love it. I buy all my products here and I wouldn't shop anywhere else.... read more

Cutting corners with my hair regimen (including at-home drug store coloring) due to budgetary constraints has left it dry, dull, and falling out in clumps in the shower due to severe breakage. Corner cutting is officially over: I had an actual dream last night involving Davines conditioner being on sale. (My roommate brought home gigantic tubs of it since it was on sale and told me to help myself). I was pulling into the Planet Beauty shopping center to grab a sandwich and fortuitously noticed a "By 1 Get 1 50% off sign" in the Planet Beauty window. REJOICE! Wow, dreams really do come true!!! Halle-f-ing-lujah. I parked and entered. Angels started to sing. Sahar (a sales associate) greeted me after a few minutes, and was quite sympathetic to my plight. She was SUPER nice and incredibly helpful. She provided much appreciated information regarding the new Oi line from Davines, which I can not wait to freaking try. She also recommended Furterer Gel Defrisant, AVA protective hair-oil treatment, and a special clip to prevent further damage and breakage. They have a huge selection of flat irons, hair coloring (Sahar also recommended J.F. Lazartigue for at-home color if I ever decide to do that again!), hair clips, all types of mani-pedi goodies, gigantic selection of nail polish, make-up, and mid- to high-end hair and skin products. Lots of good little gifts too! I left with a huge pile of swag and saved almost 75 dollars! I even got to pick out a free polish. Much better experience than I had a few years ago. I will definitely be back again soon! read more

I think this may be the first location of the company--I have shopped here for well over 20 years. The product selection is amazing in every category. Well displayed, nice natural light. But one of the main reasons I go is the service. The longtime manager, Cindy Serrano, is the best of the best. Always upbeat, can answer any question and truthfully. She will help you find what you need. Outstanding product knowledge and so personable. Great reflection on ownership to hold onto someone valuable like Cindy. She has known many of the customers for years and it is reflected in the service. Five stars! read more

Came in here to buy hand lotion and check out the clearance section. The Indian lady here was super rude. She asked me not to touch the hand lotion super rudely. There was no sign ANYWHERE saying not to try the tester for Caudalie hand lotion. I was taken aback and felt somewhat segregated. This store wreaks racism and off putting attitudes. Spare me the platitudes since I USUALLY shop at ULTA and SEPHORA where I'm treated with much better care. She didn't even fucking ask me for my account. I emailed you guys to update my information, and was told it could only be done at a store. These employees are so UNHELPFUL! My goodness so disappointed! I better get an email from a manager apologizing for the rude people who work here. My money is definitely not welcome here! read more

Thank you so much Josiah and the team at planet beauty! Everyone here is so kind and helpful! Josiah made it easy to find all the products I needed! He is very knowledgeable! You can definitely trust Josiah and the team here to help you find all your beauty needs! read more

WOOHOO!! I've been looking for clip on bangz for about a year and a half and this is the ONLY place I have found that has them. Other places it wasn't really hair or had an awful selection of colors. It's real hair and $50! Haha I know it sounds silly, but I've been looking for these suckers for such a long time that I was just so excited to find them at Planet Beauty, Newport Beach. It's just for fun without the commitment of cutting your own hair.. and worse!! That awful, awkward growing out bangs period. Other than that, I'm in love with this place because they have an amazing selection of products and brands that is sometimes hard to find such as: kiehls, jurlique, éminence, and so much more!! Just so many brands and products, I'm in product heaven. They have a salon in the back which is pretty cool and something I haven't seen. This location just has great inventory. The service is so-so, the girls weren't particularly helpful. read more

I normally don't write bad reviews however I've been so frustrated these past couple of days by my recent experience to this Newport Planet Beauty location. And to find out Planet Beauty is a local company here in Newport makes me even more disappointed. I walked into the store on Tuesday afternoon to pick up my favorite Kerastase shampoo/conditioner. I was greeted by a older blond woman. I asked her about the different types of Kerastase shampoos- specifically one style and what type of hair this is best for - and she says to me, "it's on the fine print." Later on in my experience I mentioned that I found a coupon online for 15% off and would they honored that in the stores. Just so we are clear, I'm the only customer in the store. She responds to me saying, "And did you read that it says online only." I would think that especially during this time that employees would be more friendly and most importantly generous with their knowledge and customer service. We all have a choice of where we get to shop. I love supporting local shops. However my experience with this location was rude and unprofessional. I was a raving fan and a loyal customer- up until now. I went home and went to the Kerastase website and bought over $150 worth of products - oh and the great news is I received 20% off. There are plenty of other stores to buy beauty products I would not recommend this location. read more

I love coming to the Planet Beauty in Newport Beach. The staff there are so sweet and always very helpful. Especially Alexis! She really goes over and beyond to make sure the customer is more than satisfied! Cindy, the manager, is great too! I love that I can walk in a place that feels a bit overwhelming to me because of all the products I have to choose from and they make it such a great experience by helping me narrow down what would work best for me. That's customer service! Thank you ladies!!! read more

I love PB. They have it all here. Great men products. I like to use Layrite. They have suavecito here also. Cindy is always welcoming and helpful. Always has a smile on her face and always has great recommendations. I love their voluspa candles here also. I highly recommend coming to this location. You won't be disappointed. Place is very clean and organized. Staffs wearing mask. I feel safe coming into PB. read more

I'm not sure what it is about this specific location but every time I come here I have some type of customer service issue. This visit, I was asking for advice on a hair product from an employee who basically told me in the middle of our conversation to hold on so she could go help another woman. The other woman said she was on her lunch break. FYI- I was also on my lunch break. Then, as I had my credit card out to make a payment (another employee was checking me out), the same woman came up to me and made a few recommendations, which I was super grateful for. She said she would show me the brand super quick so I followed her, with my card still out because I had been ready to insert it into the card machine. As she gave me the product, she ran back to the counter and started to help another woman in front of me while my transaction was still showing on the credit machine waiting for my payment, even though she knew I was following to the same counter to finish my transaction. While waiting at the counter, it appeared their conversation was going to take some time, so I stepped up and said, let me just finish my payment, and went to enter my card. The employee said no, she had already started a different transaction. At this point, I felt I had no option other than to say cancel it because I had to get back to work. I left my $110 purchase sitting in the bag. There are too many other business where I can purchase the exact same brands and have better customer service experiences. I used to buy most of my beauty needs from PB until the past few years because of issues like this. read more

I love coming to this planet beauty location! The staff is always so welcoming & friendly and really make sure you are taken care of as a customer. I came in looking for a new shampoo & conditioner routine and Alexis helped me out so much! She was extremely knowledgeable in all of the store's products and was really dedicated to finding me something that would work best for me which I really appreciated. Cindy, the manager, is doing an awesome job of leading her team and was also very attentive to all her customers. Pam checked me out and made sure I knew about all the offers and promotions coming up & was super friendly & nice to talk too! Definitely staying at this location! read more

Thank you Cindy for making me feel so good about my shopping experience. Great gift suggestions. Love the products for my hair and face. So glad we met. Appreciate the individualized attention. See you again real soon. read more

I came here last week to get some new products and Reyna was super sweet and helpful !! She took her time to help me pick out the best products for my face and gave personal reviews on everything. Love coming here read more

Up north ULTA & Sephora are my go-to stores when it comes to MUA products and services. Our beauty advisor, Maria, welcomed us to Planet Beauty from the moment of entry. She was --and is--knowledgeable with all beauty related things from eyelash serums, derm (skin) creams and makeup tips that really bring you up to speed with the beauty community. I like how this shop gives a boutique feel and even offers beauty services for those of us that want the Extra polish/umph for the weekend. Great customer service and smiles in the OC are rare to come by, given that most of LA is pretentious and snobby... I didn't get that during my time @ Planet Beauty with Maria. I'll be back next month with cash to spend and points to earn. read more

Blown away from the top notch customer service at this location. Alexis is so friendly, personable, accommodating and goes above and beyond to deliver exceptional customer service. She was super busy and made sure every customer that walked through the door was helped to the max. She helped me find great deals and spent the time to make sure each product was right for me skin. Impressed! Kudos to her and thank you! . :) read more

Lexi & Cindy were so sweet and helpful I love this location! I came in looking for a pair of lashes and Lexi helped me pick out the perfect lashes she even put them on for me! read more

Good variety of products and sales people are helpful (I think commission based?). Store is a bit cramped and difficult to move in. I had to closely tuck my purse underneath my arm to not knock anything over. Parking is a pain--spaces are cramped and tight and not SUV friendly. Pros: Good product variety Helpful staff Cons: Poor store layout Lack of parking spaces Tight parking spaces Too many restrictions on 20% off coupon read more

I love this store. Pam is awesome!!! They have everything. They carry my favorite Di Prima combs. I had lost mine that I had for years. They have all my grooming and hair products. read more

Why did you close the location by South Coast Plaza?? This location has great selection but your staff is DISGRACEFUL. Rude, too busy socializing amongst themselves and selective of whom they help. I will never go into this store again!! read more

Lady tells me she's been there for years....i tell her I need something to create soft and silky smooth hair...she says hers is, and it's more dry and curly than mine! Wow lol Short Indian lady read more

My boyfriend just bought a hair dryer which a staff recommended him and i found out it is way too heavy and pricey. Absolutely he didn't know more than me about hair dryer. What staff told him was it is very famous dryer like Dyson... I called the store right away to get refund. No Refunded. It didn't take even 20mins that he bought that product. Very Nice! It was very easy for the staff to sell $200 dryer to him. They never mention no refund. It says on the receipt. Only important to sell that stupid dryer. Very lucky that only he went there. Good luck my wrist. lol read more

I received excellent customer service from Miriam Salcedo today. I have been shopping at this location for about one year due to my Vitiligo skin disorder has spread and now I have discoloration on my face. Therefore, I found Dermablend. It covers well, and, therefore, when I need to purchase more this is the store I choose. I originally shopped with Susie Melara who I understand is now in a new position within Planet Beauty. Miriam was personal, friendly and professional. I enjoyed working with her to make my purchase of several Dermablend products, OPI nail polish, Blush brush and Laura Geller Blush. Again, I appreciate her communication and knowledge of products. She asked about what kind of shampoo I use and made suggestions for future reference. Also, she included several samples of new products that I can try with my purchase. Thanks so much!! read more

This location in particular is great because they sell individual Sigma brushes and not all Planet Beauty locations do. They also sell Blinc Amplified mascara, so I don't have to order it online from Sephora anymore since Sephora only carries the regular one in store. They have a great selection of products that are sometimes hard to find at most places and carry an array of scents from my favorite Voluspa candle line. Staff was actually very friendly and helpful to me so I did not experience bad customer service as other had. read more

I happen to be in the area and in the market for new hair products! Walked right in and was immediately greeted by Debbie, she was super friendly and eager to assist me. I explained I was in the market for a quality dry shampoo and desperately in need of some moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. Debbie proceeded to ask more questions about my hair type before recommending products which I truly appreciated. I decided on Colure's volumizing shampoo to add volume and a little extra body to my baby fine hair and Colure's moisturizing conditioner. Debbie assured me the conditioner would not weigh my hair down and she fully guaranteed an exchange for another product if I wasn't satisfied. Wait, you struck a cord at "exchange" not refund??? So although not widely advertised Planet Beauty does not offer a full refund if you are not completely satisfied with your products but you're able to exchange products. I believe it's within two weeks of purchase with accompanied receipt, don't quote me! Yep, that's my reason for knocking off 1 star. So ladies and gents if I were you I would be 100% sure you know your products before purchasing!! I also purchased a dry shampoo, by Bamboo Style called Cleanse Extend, ideal for brunettes and luckily I was equally satisfied with this product as well. All and all planet beauty is a well organized store with knowledgable staff and up to date top of the line products. I walked out spending a pretty penny $75+ for products but that's the price you pay to maintain/preserve that expensive root/highlight color every three months!!! Thank you Debbie for all my free samples of wonderful facial products, I love the masks to give my skin a boost before going out! I will definitely return for more products. Tip, if you're a sushi lover, a few doors down is Nana San BEST SUSHI I've had in Orange County similar to Sushi Zo in LA. read more

Make sure that what you buy is EXACTLY what you want. The advisors are not always good. I got some wax yesterday, but wasn't told I need strips! Took is back today and they don't do a refund. Only store credit! 2 stars is for the lady at the counter that was nice to my 5 year old daughter. Wanted a facial, as we live in the area. Not coming back here. read more

Great spot to stop in and grab any of my hair care and some skin care needs! I don't have to fight a mall environment and they have a great selection!! Staff is very friendly and the store is clean and well organized!! There is also a salon inside which I have never used so I can't comment to their services. read more

I have been coming to this location for over 8 years and you can't beat the selection. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly and they have tons of stuff. WAY better than the location in Orange. I had a situation where I got overcharged and I came in today and after a quick convo with Monica and she gave me a credit back.. which I proceeded to spend again! Great service! read more

I get what other Yelpers mean when they say that the sales staff can be haughty. I didn't have the best experience on my last last visit. The sales staff seemed "too bothered" to be helpful. However...my experience this time was great!!! I really went in to buy a hair clip, but remembered that I was out of eye cream. They have SO many products crammed in the store that it's really hard to know if you're getting a quality product without doing your research ahead of time & reading some reviews. The girl at the counter asked me if I was looking for something in particular and I told her that I was in the market for a new eye cream, but didn't want to spend an arm and a leg. She immediately told me that the Perricone eye cream was awesome and led me to the products. She even put a sample on the back of my hand. I then skeptically asked what SHE used and she said the same. Her explanation seemed informative & knowledgeable, so it was believable. I wanted to give it a try. Plus, she said that she could give me a 20% discount...even better. The hair clip...ah yes. There were two spinning racks of hair clips and barrettes. Again, the girl asked me if I needed help. She helped me make a selection and I was only my way. Even store was closing in 15 minutes, I got great customer service and didn't feel rushed to make my selections!!! read more

I love coming to this Planet Beauty. The staff is always so friendly and knowledgeable of the products they carry. I prefer shopping here as opposed to Sephora because of the personal customer service. I'm so glad they carry Rodial skincare because it's definitely my must have for anti-aging! read more

Been going here forever. Everyone who has worked there has always given me great service and good advice.

I love Planet Beauty the girls are always so cute and there hair and makeup always looks so trendy they are always so helpful. They are very knowledgeable with all the newest products.

That's why I love to shop small businesses like these . read more
