The Grand Dame of them all as I have been told. I have visited 6 times over the last ten years. Always a pilgrimage for the wife. As per my wife, they carry all the product lines versus a neighborhood Sephora location. Most arrondissements throughout Paris have a local version. Super busy. Always crowded. If you suffer from anxiety proceed with caution. Lots of employees available to help. Tons and tons of tourist. Always a good time for the ladies and gents. Come and Enjoy!!! read more

Sephora - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Paris, 75

Love it!!! The red carpet makes me feel special for some reason. The only problem was, one of the employees was trying to make us sing up. But overall it was great!!! read more

Visit Sephora on Champs-Elysees, in Paris France! This gotta be the hugest Sephora in the world. Note* They check your purse Upon entering. (Few stores does this, get use to it.) Visit here a couple times while I was visiting Paris. Visit here on my birthday, as a beauty insider to collect my gift, I was told I could not because my account was from America, just because I'm American. She didn't even ask me, where I'm from. You can only collect during your birthday month in America, being my born day is Halloween, I missed out this year. Plus they were fresh out of fenty's trophy wife glow highlight, by Riri. read more

See all

This is the largest Sephora store in the world and it's the first Sephora I've ever been to. It's on Champs-Elysées in Paris and it's massive. You won't know where to look first. There is makeup, skincare, and fragrances galore! Definitely stop in here on your trip to Paris. read more

We were refused entry into the store at 9:07pm despite the advertised closing time of 9:30pm. I travelled for 40 minutes only to be refused entry along with other customers who were willing to spend hundreds of euros in the store. read more

Apparently this is the biggest Sephora in the world (insert Oooos and Ahhhhs here). My friends and I went in hoping to find some cool French items but it was mostly what we can find in the states. That being said, they did have a few things we picked up here and there during our week in Champs Elysees. I bought a Sephora brand eyelash curler for 8.20 Euros, Sephora brand makeup brushes for 15.90 Euros and some John Frieda hair serum for 10 Euros. Ouch, prices are rough in France! The checkout people worked through the language barrier with me and I even signed up for their rewards program. read more

Sephora VIB here so I had to stop at the flagship store on Champs-Elysees and it was makeup/beauty heaven! The store was soooo big and had security everywhere but the best part was seeing brands in the Sephora store that is not sold at Sephora back in the U.S. (Pixi, Zoeva, and French brands). I didn't need anything but picked up the new Fenty lipgloss. I just came to admire and see the flagship of one of my favorite stores and it was everything I imagined it to be read more

Great location for us as tourists and the prices were exceptional. My wife's has been using Coco Chanel Mademoiselle for 15 years and this was the only place in all that time where we found it to be on sale. Very extensive selection and the staff was friendly and very helpful! read more

The Mecca of beauty. Ok so even if you're not into makeup they have a lot of skin care and body products and perfumes you can browse. This is a world class establishment carrying only the finest products from progressive Korean beauty products to classic French perfumes. The brands source their ingredients world wide such as natural Springs in Japan. Still not convinced to visit? I believe this is the flagship store so it has everything and then some. There's even a little sushi bar inside but makeup on the conveyer belt instead of actual sushi. They're taking the whole consumer experience to the next level. One thing I absolutely adore about this particular Sephora is the amount of helpful employees around the store ready to help you with anything. My only downside is that you cannot use your Sephora insider card from America. Other than that you should totally stop by if you're on Champs Élysées. read more

Three things I learned from visiting this Sephora during a recent visit of a friend. 1. There's a men's section! I'm sure I sound dumb, but I always thought that Sephora was a makeup shop. This one had an enormous collection of men's fragrances, including some exclusive Armani fragrances only available at a couple other locations in Paris. 2. The staff don't work on commission and are really dedicated to helping you find the right scent. 3. Be prepared for crowds like you've never seen - this place is busy all the time. read more

I've been to many Sephoras and this is the grand daddy of them all, hands down! As you enter the store, it's like walking into the Beauty Version of Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory with the red carpet and a huge, luxurious bottle of Jadore luring you inside. The location is perfect! (On Champs-Elysees towards the Arc de Triomphe, you can't miss it!) As any Beauty Insider or VIB should know, they offer a variety of brands. You'll need to check it out to see what's new in stock since they tend to change seasonally. Look for the gems that's not available back home! Besides skincare and makeup, Sephora also offers an array of perfume selections. If you're looking for a certain bottle of perfume, you'll most likely find it here. Overall, I love this place! Now, can anyone give me an unlimited line of gift card, so I can start shopping?! haha The prices seem about the same as back in the States, but they offer the VAT form (tax refund) that you can fill out in order to get your money back at the airport. Do it! PS VIB points does not apply here, but they do offer their own reward program. read more

Sephora - Sephora Heaven; The MOST luxurious of em' all! - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Paris, 75

Sephora doesn't carry MAC. This is a boutique located within a boutique. Not to confuse customers that Sephora sells MAC and then goes to the States and insists that Sephora in the States carries MAC. Love Sephora and even better since MAC boutique is located in here...so easy to get all your beauty needs. read more

The perfume selection is insane! Then again this is Paris so it shouldn't be surprising. The make up selection didn't seem that huge but covers all the major brands expected at Sephora. The place is a HUGE madhouse though. It's soooooooooo busy despite its size that makes it a challenge to walk and browse around. Despite the madness the staff were willing to help and polite which is nice. They had this Gift factory which was kinda cool and I haven't seen one of those in North America (see pic) And well its Sephora so what's not to love. Except my credit card bill... read more

The biggest store I have ever seen. It was an event shopping here. The men's section is about 3 times larger than in the states. Great customer service and friendly. Enjoyed my visit. The wife came out with a few things as well. Side note: security does stop you at the front door to look in your bags your bringing in. Including women's hand bags. read more

Since Sephora is French, there is nothing like shopping at a Sephora store right at Champs-Elysées. Huge store with a wide range of beauty products and fragrances. My favourite: Sephora body lotion Vanille Crème Brûlée. Gorgeous smell. Wherever in the world I get across Sephora, I buy loads of that stuff until I cannot carry my suitcase any longer;0))) - and back home people around keep asking: "Who`s the one smelling like vanilla buiscuits?" Sadly it is not as nourishing as promised since it contains silicone. Off goes one star... read more

Sephora is one of my favorite stores. During our time in Paris, I dragged BF to almost every single one of them. I wasn't particularly looking for anything but I love looking at the different offerings in each of their locations. By far, this is the largest Sephora I've been to with a huge selection of French brands that are not found in the US stores: Armani, Chanel, Laurence Dumont just to name a few. The Times Square Sephora is tiny compared to this one. This is the only Sephora out of all the ones in Paris that compelled me to make a purchase. There is something glamorous about the red carpet lined entrance before the store opens up to the rest of the makeup. I knew when I walked in that I would be spending a pretty penny with all the GWPs here. I decided on some baked Chanel eyeshadow that is found everywhere else except the US. The lovely French woman that was assisting me turned out to be the Givenchy rep which worked out because I wanted some blush and powder from her line that came with a lovely silver mirror GWP. She was super accommodating and spoke English very well. I asked her if a certain color would look good on me while her US Sephora counterpart will tell me things I want to hear even though it's not the best choice for me. She told me the color was too dark for me and suggested a more suitable one. I'll take honesty any day over brown-nosing. She was nice enough to apply the blush to show me how it would look. Again, her US counterparts only do so if I ask, not voluntarily like she did. If you want to feel pampered, this is THE Sephora to go to. It's just too bad that VIB points don't carry over into the US. There's also a sign that refunds VAT tax that we should have done since that would have funded a new Chanel purse. Oh well. C'est la vie! Edit: I forgot to mention that they had red carpet all the way from the front to the back. Nothing like a red carpet welcome, eh? Also, GWP = gift with purchase, VAT = value added tax (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Value-added_tax). HTH (hope that helps)! read more

I walked in and I was in heaven...it was the most gigantic Sephora I'd ever seen! I was surprised at how many active makeup stations they had. I was also pleased with their selection. They also carry MAC, which the Sephoras in the U.S. do not carry. read more

I was hardly impressed with this store as I was told its the flagship store. I found the store rather small. Could not even redeem my free birthday gift as the sales lady had no idea what I was talking about. We get a birthday gift free in the states each year. I did see lots of product lines we have no access to in the states but the one item I did want and couldn't find in the states as its always out of stock was of course out of stock at the flagship. Go figure. I didn't find the staff all that helpful either. I have shopped in much better locations and nicer stores in the united states. I would not return to this location if I venture back to paris. Nice to say I did go see but it was rather meh. My visit was in the second week of September of 2019. read more

I purchased an expensive lipstick at the Lafayette Mall Sephora. I opened it back at my hotel and found the tube defective. I grabbed an Uber to this store location to exchange the tube. I had my credit card receipt but not the itemized receipt. They would not replace the defective tube! I spent several hundred dollars at the Lafayette store and was given a couple samples and a candle "gift." When I left the store, alarms went off and I was treated as if I stole the free samples and candle. A manager came to validate the free gift to the guard! I was angry and embarrassed. I will never shop at Sephora again and will tell all my friends to beware of a company that has poor customer service and doesn't stand behind their products! read more

Everyone who works at this Sephora is so incredibly helpful and friendly. It was such a pleasure to go there. I have been to Sephora all over the globe, my worst experiences being in the US unfortunately. The staff here takes pride in their work and I cannot wait to go back read more

Do not go here. They are very very racist. I went into this store to get a price adjustment for some products that I bought online that decreased in price (to simply return at the higher price and rebuy my products at the lower price). There was not a receipt included in the box in which my order came. I showed the cashier my itemized order confirmation for proof of purchase. She then got the manager, Isabelle, who was incredibly racist. She proceeded to ask me if I showed the products I had brought into the store with me to the security guards at the door. Who enters a store and displays what's in their bag? I said no why would I do that. She then proceeded to say that she wouldn't be able to tell if I had just taken these items from the store. First of all these are online only products, so how would I steal them if they're not found in the store. Second of all that is incredibly racist of you to suggest that I would steal something when you would not say that to a white customer. I would also like to point out that I spend $1000 a year at Sephora in the United States, which makes me the top membership level there. I was incredibly disappointed to receive such bigoted treatment and harassment in Paris, France. This manager, Isabelle, then proceeded to call her colleague because she supposedly could not accept my return and repurchase even though I offered ID, credit card information, and proof of purchase. It is sad to realize that despite what you act like, people will insist on treating you in a racist manner. I finally received my price adjustment, and was greatly upset as I left the store because I do not deserve to be treated like a common thief when I spend so much money at this store. Sephora needs to retrain their employees. N'allez pas ici. Ils sont très très racistes. Je suis allé au ce magasin pour obtenir un rabais du prix de certains produits que j'ai achetés à un prix plus chère. Il n'y avait pas de reçu inclus dans le coli dans laquelle ma commande est venue. J'ai montré au caissier ma confirmation de commande détaillée comme preuve d'achat. Elle a ensuite eu la gérante, Isabelle, incroyablement raciste. Elle a ensuite demandé si je montrais les produits aux vigiles quand j'ai entrée le Sephora. Qui entre un magasin et montre ce qui est dans son sac? J'ai dit non pourquoi je ferais ça. Elle a ensuite ajouté qu'elle ne pouvait pas vérifier si je venais de prendre ces articles au magasin. Premièrement, comment est possible que je pouvais voler ces produits s'ils ne sont pas trouvés dans le magasin parce que sont sur le site web seulement. Deuxièmement, il est incroyablement raciste de son part de suggérer que je volerais quelque chose parce que elle ne dirait ça à un client blanc. Je voulais faire remarquer que je dépense un mil dollars chaque an au chez Sephora aux États-Unis, ce qui en fait le plus haut niveau de membres. J'ai été incroyablement déçue de recevoir un traitement racist et un harcèlement sectaires à Paris, en France. Cette gérante, Isabelle, a ensuite appelé sa collègue, car elle aurait accepté mon retour et mon rachat alors que j'avais offert des informations, de carte de crédit et une preuve d'achat. Il est triste de se rendre compte que malgré ce que vous agissez, les gens insisteront de vous traiter de manière raciste. Je quitte le magasin très affecté parce que je ne mérite pas être traité comme un voleur ordinaire quand je dépense autant d'argent dans ce magasin. Sephora doit recycler ses employés. read more

Girlfriend dragged me in, and all seriousness all I can really say is... WTH this place is way too big. An American football field long....

Love love love this place!!! The super Sephora which o wish we had back in the states, so unfair!!! So this is the biggest makeup mall I have ever seen, so many perfumes which I had never seen in my life but then again hello! This is France. Makeup, creams, tools, you name it they got it! No need to go into Nordstrom to get your favorite La Mer. Definitely hitting this store again before I fly back home read more

I hear an awful lot about Sephora. In fact, every beauty journalist and blogger I know raves about it. And I happen to know more than a handful. But I just wasn't keen. I'm often not keen on buying make-up and stuff anywhere other than my local Boots. I do tend to stick to the same stuff, but I have excema - I stick to what works with my skin. I've got my favourite brands and they work just fine. But then I spotted the Chanel... The idea of buying Chanel perfume, in Paris on the Champs Elysees was so utterly romantic. And so utterly expensive. Not a little either. We were expecting me to make a saving. Instead we're talking about £10-15 more expensive than buying back in the UK. I wasn't impressed and I left empty handed. Which is just as well because I couldn't afford it anyway. If anyone is walking down the Champs Elysees, and fancies buying me a present, a bottle of Coco Madamoiselle will do nicely. Ta in advance. read more

Enormous and spectacular branch of the cosmetics giant. Could this be the biggest in the World? It seriously has to be seen to be believed - it is noisy, busy and packed to the roof with every possible brand and form of cosmetic, including their excellent and very competitively priced own brand range. You could seriously spend hours in here and be prepared to spend a fortune as it is almost impossible to resist the temptations on display! The staff are wonderful as well and tend to give away loads of freebies, which is nice. read more

The strip this store is located on is SO busy. It's full of tourists! I came here because I had a makeup explosion in my suitcase and needed to restock. It was pure craziness. I found what I needed and really couldn't browse because it was so packed. Maybe it was because Anastasia BH was there the day before for a launch? I suspect it's like this all the time. But, that being said- this location is massive and it's worth seeing if you're a makeup junkie. read more

A huge Sephora by American standards and best of all MAC inside!! I was soooo excited to get my favorite lipstick here...and just a bit more expensive than in the US but half the price of where I live so all was good. The check out girl was very nice and spoke some English as well, enough to sign me up for a French Sephora rewards card! read more

This place is just freaking huge. There's staff for every... thing. Almost like there's more staff than customers. I bought my wife something that they don't carry in the US so, that was good. Otherwise... its a Sephora and there's no sports bar for us guys. Thats a bummer. read more

Very helpful staff, it was overly crowded and the aisles were a little small, but overall I had a pleasant experience. The free gift wrap was a nice touch. read more

Sephora is Paris and Paris is Sephora, it's as simple as that. Sephora's Parisian flagship store in the Champs-Elysées catches everything about the feminine side of Paris including it's sights, sounds and scents. Sephora Champs-Elysées is built like a long, large corridor, of which the first 1/3 is dedicated to fragrances, the middle to color cosmetics and the last part to creams, soaps and other luxury items. The scent that hits one's nose when entering Sephora is a little startling at first, and the mad rush of foreign and Parisian women to and from counters and displays (and the dismay of their husbands that are accompanying them) is a little breathtaking. There is something magical about these shelves and shelves full of tubes of lipstick and pots of blusher which makes one admire the art of "making oneself up to be Parisian" and the effort that goes into the morning routine of the Parisian woman. This magic only slightly fades away when approaching the cash register, waiting to hear the roundup of your purchases. Like I told my boyfriend who was dragged along with: "It's like being kicked in the solar plexus, but I love it all the same". read more

Sephora - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Paris, 75

Great range of brands and products in this huge Sephora on Champs-Elysees. The best is: Customer service. Great thanks to Adrian (cashier), the wonderful Lancome team, Guerlain (the young lady in glasses). They helped me so much when I was chosing the right products for my skin and needs, regardless the brands they represented. This is truly 5* service! read more

Huge, but was disappointed to see that French makeup brands were more expensive here than in the U.S.. (NARS, Givenchy, etc.) They didn't carry anything you can't find if you live in a major U.S. city. Thought it was pretty cool that this Sephora carries By Terry and some other high-end brands, but left empty-handed. read more

Oh my god! thought i had died and gone to heaven. Security at the door, assistants showering you with perfume and every cosmetic brand you can think off. When you buy something you can have it gift wrapped for free and you always get a sample product. The little paper bags they give you are like a fashion statement in paris. Leave yourself a good hour just to browse, Even if you are not purchasing, go just for the experience read more

An absolute treasure trove of cosmetics and perfumes. Anything you want, even if you're not sure it exists, will be in this shop. I wandered round in here for a very long time. Happy days! read more

Hot holy hell. Let me just say that I am a VIB rouge member in the US. I've also shopped at Sephora in various cites in Spain. This is not Sephora. First, you walk in to tons of employees trying to sell you perfume. Not fun if you have a migraine. Then, they seem to be playing zones as you ask a question of a worker who is literally doing nothing but standing there and she directs you elsewhere and continues to just stand there. Ok. Sure. The colorIQ is broken. They push higher end brands so you have to be really adamant if you just want a slightly different product in the same brand you currently use. They also have these laminated cards which you are told to take to the cashier. He tells you to take it to the girl at the beauty area in the center of the store. She tells you to take it to the cashier. What the hell is going on? Then you leave and security acts like you stole something (didn't) and searches you while letting other people who set off the alarm pass right on through. This is not the place to go if you are in a hurry. Not the place to go if you get migraines. More employees do not equal good customer service. High pressure sales are not customer service. Get it together people. read more

This Sephora is HUGE! It has more beauty supplies than a normal Sephora store. They even do your nails(that's new.) The staff were nice & helpful. It is clean & neat. Also it is convenient to get to from the Marriott next door. The only problem is that when you walk in you almost have a seizure(from the lights.) But, it's ok. If your in Paris and you need beauty supplies definitely go to this location of Sephora! read more

Was there 4 weeks ago and tried to buy the new VICE 2 palette by Urban Decay.. the girl who was working there had no idea how it even looks and tried to convince me that the SHATTERED FACE CASE by UD is ACTUALLY vice 2 and even give me stupid look like I'm the one who is dumb. Another day i decided to buy new foundation so i went there and i was picking up right shade for my skin.. it was Urban Decay Naked Skin foundation which is not cheap at all so i didn't wanna waste my money on wrong shade... another girl tried look like big professional and helped me with the shade.. i told her the one which she is recommending looks too dark for me and she way like "no no no trust me i know it better this is perfect for you" when i was back home from my trip to Paris i tried it and OF COURSE ITS WAY TOO DARK! I swear i couldn't believe it. It should be one of the best sephora's but my experience was horrible.. they should send their employees on some trainings about new makeup stuffs more often!! read more
