Lots of natural light and big windows make for a comfortable feel, and the staff was incredibly kind and not pushy. They took "Iowa Nice" to another level, making the visit fun and informative. Options include all natural fragrances, artwork, cards, flowers, bracelets, stickers, earrings, plants, and items for the home. The service was spot on with a high level of knowledge and kindness.

I've gotten attitude from one employee when I simply asked for her to help me find a product I'd seen at another Sephora. This site didn't carry it, so I was met with defensiveness. The main issue I've noticed is rude employees. Most of the staff seem nice and helpful, but interestingly I've been treated poorly 8 out of the 10 times I've been to this store (this is why I thought I'd finally leave a review). Before my birthday month an employee informed me I could receive my birthday gift anytime of the year. I went to get my birthday gift and was told it was too late. I explained what another staff had told me and was basically told too bad. Typically with customer service, and something so minkr, you just give the customer the benefit so they keep coming back. Nope. Not with this employee. After all the weird service I've gotten here I doubt I'll shop here. I'll go to Des Moines or online. I only give it 1 star because of the nice young lady who I chatted with that helped with my eyeliner and for the gal who's helped me in the past and was nice.
