Sephora to open in Liverpool as it continues UK expansion
Sephora is continuing its retail expansion across the UK with plans to open at Liverpool ONE in spring 2025.
Taking a 6,727 sq ft cornerstone unit on South John Street, the new store will boast an extensive selection of products across makeup, skincare, haircare, fragrance and wellness.
Similar to its existing locations, the line-up of brands available in-store will include Glossier, Rare Beauty, Tatcha, Kayali and Glow Recipe, amongst many others.
The space will also feature a range of beauty services across makeup, skincare, hair and brows.
It marks the eighth location in Sephora UK’s growing physical retail portfolio, which includes existing stores in London, Manchester, Newcastle and Gateshead.
Later this year, the beauty retailer will also open new locations at Birmingham Bullring and Bluewater in Kent.
Sarah Boyd, Managing Director of Sephora UK, said: "By the end of this year, we will have opened seven stores in five regions across the UK, and I’m thrilled to share that our regional expansion will continue in 2025, with the first new store opening of the year at Liverpool ONE.
"We have had immense demand from our fans in Liverpool to open a store in their city, and we are excited to open one in a city that embodies a remarkable energy and boasts a rich and vibrant history that resonates with our brand.
"Liverpool has been a key location in our brand expansion plans, and we were prepared to wait for the right opportunity, which this prominent Liverpool ONE unit provides. As we prepare to welcome both new and existing customers, we are looking forward to creating a truly memorable and enchanting experience at Liverpool ONE, in a store format that reflects the spirit of the city."
The new store will join a number of beauty brands and retailers already available at Liverpool ONE, including Charlotte Tilbury, Boots, Jo Malone London, Molton Brown, MAC Cosmetics, Space NK, and more.
Rob Deacon, Asset Management Director at Liverpool ONE, said: "Sephora is a brand that represents exactly what Liverpool ONE looks for when adding to our line-up. It is globally celebrated, has a huge base of loyal fans, and delivers a bold, compelling concept.
"Consumer demand for Sephora is strong in Liverpool, and securing best-in-class retailers and experiences for the city is precisely what we aim to achieve at the destination, so the entrance of this beauty powerhouse is a natural partnership.
"2025 is shaping up to be the biggest year for store openings since 2008, so we’re hugely excited to welcome visitors to experience it for themselves when this city-first launches early next year."
