Sephora

Love the staff, have always been very helpful when I need help matching or need recommendations. Store is always clean and organized. Product/​brands are easy to find. Policy that you can try a product and return or exchange it if it’s not everything you thought it will be is fantastic– will always get my make up for Sephora!

As a guy I might not be the best judge/​reviewer of this store for most of their target clientele market niche, which is women. [obviously] So this goes out to all the XY chromosomes in the house. Yo!
Hey now, don’t worry about going in here, it is not like Victoria’s Secret, where the ladies look at you like you are pervert for wondering in [ you’re such a self conscious weirdo, now put down the padded bra and focus ]. At Sephora they don’t care if a guy comes in, they don’t judge, if anything they ‘d just think — hell he’s probably a drag queen looking for a good concealer [what the f@#* is that? — go ask your sister].
But seriously, if you’re a guy, and you can’t find a new replacement bottle of that nice (expensive) fragrance that your special someone once bought you as gift, well, they might have it here.
Or perhaps you have enough of sense of self and style to not want to carry with you the same subtle fragrances of the 1990’s that adorn those fragrance sections of Target or Wal-​Mart. There is no AXE here, sir. But rather a very nice selection of [sometimes harder to find] specialty Men’s fragrances. They’re near the back, on the left wall, buried way behind all of the Women’s fragrances makeup and «stuff.»

What can I say? I absolutely love Sephora.
I love how the staff are at the top of their game here. We always go to the store having done a lot of research and supposedly aware of what we want to buy. But there is always a good surprise, a lovely suggestion that I will want to try. They are very generous with the samples as well and the return policy is just amazing. You feel like they want their product to work for you. Most of the items are a little pricy, but apparently having a good skin and hair costs a lot and I can’t argue with that. But at least you know you will not be dissatisfied with your purchase.
Great location, clean organized store, and the helpful staff are just the cherry on top as I likes to put it.

I love Sephora. Some things can be expensive but in this case, you get what you pay for and what you pay for is amazing make up that the drug stores can’t really beat. Also, there is a ton of variety.
I always have great customer service and they always have what I want and are willing to help me with my vagueness of what I want in the first place.
I always so around my birthday for my free gift and save all my beauty insider points so I can get a really great gift. I just wish they would send coupons so I can save a couple of dollars.
Overall, I will continue to come here for my make up needs because I love this place.

I remember when I was teenager and entered my first Sephora in 1998 — in France. The store totally wowed me with its variety of colors, the scents, glosses and beautiful women. It was a sublime and eye-​opening experience. I was even more excited a few months later when I realized that this magical «Sephora» shop was opening in New York City! Never would I thought this amazing place would exist as a satellite in Eastview Mall in Victor. I am so, so glad it does.
There is no better place to buy makeup. The displays are organized and clean, allowing customers to try on makeup in a monitored setting that ensures respect for the products and other customers. It’s not like the effed up lipstick you bought at Rite Aid that you forgot to double-​check before you left.
The selection is second to none — my favorite brands like Nars, Stila, Laura Mercer, Buxom and Yves Saint Laurent are no longer just amorphous products floating online in cyberspace. Without Sephora, it would be difficult to find them in Rochester. The perfume and cologne selection is also awesome. Unlike the annoying perfume counter at department stores where some poor woman with a stiff smile is following you around, you’re generally left in peace to do your detective work and figure out which perfume works best for you. I buy most of my perfume and my husband’s cologne here and the prices are VERY reasonable — pretty much on par even with duty free.
One thing I would recommend doing is getting the 45-​minute makeover. It’s free with any $ 50 purchase. The makeup artists are very skilled and you’ll come away with some pretty cool tips and tricks, plus some colors and foundations you may never have thought to try. Another perk about Sephora is the Beauty Insider plan. I’ve gotten tons of blusher, moisturizer, eye cream and mascara for free just by building up points. A wonderful place with great customer service!

I’ve been going to Sephora for 6 or 7 years now. I love the store, the employees there are always amazingly nice. I’ve only had a few bad experiences when I needed help and literally couldn’t wrangle an associate down to save my life.
The prices are fair and you can almost always get samples if you’re not sure (and you can return products within 30 days with the receipt — even if you use it). When you can get an associate (which is almost always), they’re extremely attentive and knowledgable. I’ve only had to return products a handful of times in all the years I’ve been a Sephora customer.
Also guys! It’s not just a makeup store! Sephora sells colognes and skincare products just for men!
Love this place, it’s worth every penny!

I am always really happy with my trips to Sephora. I enjoy knowledgeable staff who take the time to really help you find what you’re looking for. I have been known to spend hours — for real — trying to find the perfect product, and everyone has been patient, helpful and kind.

I feel pretty, oh so pretty! I loovvveee Make up!!!
If someone asked me what I was obsessed with, other then my nephews, I would say make up! I love make up so much, that I once bought 10 Urban Decay eye shadows and carried them around with me to show any one and everyone I was going to see that day, that I thought would love to see the fabulous colors! With that said, Sephora is my sanctuary.
A lot of times i run in to Sephora to grab the basics, but I love the days when I have time to just walk around and ohh and ahh over all the great products! I spend countless hours watching make up tutorials on Youtube, so any chance i get to go barefaced into Sephora and test out the products, I do.
I love going into this place because every woman that is in that store is in an amazing mood. It’s the Disney Land of make up! You could have just ran over an animal, but the minute you walk in there, you’re all smiles and the world becomes a better place!
With every brand of make up starring you in the face, it’s hard not run around and try on so much that you end up walking our looking like a clown. This Sephora is a the perfect size and it is never over packed. Even on black friday, it’s bearable to walk into. It’s incredibly clean, so I don’t mind trying on the products. The employees are always there to help and show you how to wear the new trend, but they aren’t pushy! One of the best things is, they give you samples! Many of the high end beauty counters do not give out free samples, but go to Seophra, you can get a whole line of make up in cute mini containers, FOR FREE! Plus they have an amazing rewards program. On your birthday YOU GET A FREE GIFT!!! I am a sucker for a good deal, especially when its free and involves make up!
So, ladies, and men, get your butts out to Sephora and start having fun! Men, when in doubt when buying a gift for the special lady in your life, just get her a Sephora gift card… you will do no wrong in her eyes… until it runs out ;)

I really do love Sephora. I find that they’re prices are very reasonable. I only go to this store for my makeup now. Every girl has the line that they love so this store can accomadate. If your not sure of what line to go with, you can easily find it out here with the testers that they have and the excellent staff. The staff is phenomenal. They are honest!!! I asked for an opinion on a specific and instead of thinking about the $$, they were just open and up front about what worked for them, which saved me the hassle of buying something i didn’t like and returning it. Excellent store. Highly recommended. Also, the makeup brushes are a good investment here as well. I’ve had mine for 3 yrs now and love it!

I believe every woman hears the sounds of angels singing in unison when she enters her favorite store (or maybe that’s just me?). That’s how I feel when into walk into Sephora! I’ll gladly yell to the world that Sephora is one of my all time favorite places. With no difficulty, a paycheck can disappear within 10 minutes of stepping through the front doors. I do love their Beauty Bank rewards card, something no lady should ever be without (you get a point for every dollar spent).
Sephora has all my favorites except for M.A.C. and Bobbi Brown. They carry Fresh, Nars, Benefit, Stila, Dior and Philosophy in addition to a myriad of other great products. They’ve got tools and brushes galore, hair care items, body products, fragrances, carrying cases for those of us with major makeup addictions. In short, Sephora very well may be your one-​stop cosmetics shop. Do not go in here in a rush. Thanks to their wide array of products, their prices run the gamut from expensive to very affordable (especially if you buy from the Sephora line itself). Sephora charges the manufacturer’s recommended price and you get what you pay for. In my experience, there is no such thing as cheap, quality makeup.
Another great thing about Sephora is that their products are guaranteed. If you’re not happy, bring it back. Sephora understands that sometimes it takes more than 30 days for you to really know whether a product is right for you. My only complaint is that is can be difficult to get a hold of a customer service member to help me out because they’re usually busy with other people. Hint: Sephora, hire more people! But once I do get a hold of someone, they are always extremely friendly and knowledgeable, will walk me over to where I can find the product I’m looking for and they never make me feel rushed.
Sweet and simple — Sephora is fabulous! =D

Eastview, Rochester, NY’s Upscale Mall has by far the largest sq.ft. Sephora in Upstate NY. Outstanding selection of the highest quality product available from all over the world: Womens (& some Mens items) Colognes, Parfums, Skincare, Make-​up,& much, much more.

Highly recommended.
This is big-​city selection, all the way! Great Customer service:
They’ll order for you whatever you can’t find!
