Sephora hours

Most standalone Sephora stores are open 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM Monday through Saturday and 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM Sunday. Sephora at Kohl's counters (~700 locations) follow Kohl's hours instead (typically 9:00 AM to 10:00 PM Mon-Sat, 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM Sun). Closed chain-wide on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and Easter Sunday. Customer service: 1-877-737-4672 (1-877-SEPHORA).

Sephora is a US prestige beauty retailer with about 570 standalone stores nationwide plus around 700 Sephora at Kohl’s small-format counters inside Kohl’s department stores, owned by French luxury conglomerate LVMH (LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton) since 1997, headquartered in San Francisco California for the US business and Paris France globally, selling prestige cosmetics, skincare, fragrance, hair care, and beauty tools across exclusive brands including Fenty Beauty, Rare Beauty, Drunk Elephant, Charlotte Tilbury, Tom Ford, Dior, La Mer, and the Sephora Collection private label.

The questions readers actually ask: what time does Sephora open today, when does the store close, are they open on Thanksgiving, Christmas, or Easter, Sunday hours, and how Sephora at Kohl’s hours differ from standalone Sephora hours.

Two Sephora specific things worth knowing: standalone stores typically run 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM Monday through Saturday and 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM Sunday (mall-tenant locations may follow host-mall hours); the chain has no 24-hour locations and is closed chain-wide on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and Easter Sunday. The ~700 Sephora at Kohl’s small-format counters are the exception to the standalone hours: those follow the host Kohl’s store hours (typically 9:00 AM to 10:00 PM Monday through Saturday and 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM Sunday), giving Sephora effective extended hours and earlier-open access in Kohl’s markets.

Is Sephora open on Saturday?

Saturday is the busiest day at most Sephora stores (10:00 AM to 9:00 PM at standalone locations). Saturday afternoon sees the heaviest Beauty Insider perk redemption traffic and the biggest crowd for prestige brand launches and limited-edition drops. VIB Sale and Rouge Sale events (typically April + November) hit Saturday peaks with the 10-15-20 percent off discount stack. Sephora at Kohl's counters open earlier on Saturday (9:00 AM) following the host Kohl's hours.

Is Sephora open on Sunday?

Sunday hours at standalone Sephora are shorter than Mon-Sat. Most stores run 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM Sunday. Mall-tenant locations may run 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM Sunday following host-mall hours. Easter Sunday is the one Sunday with chain-wide closure. Sephora at Kohl's locations run longer Sunday hours (typically 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM, matching Kohl's host hours), so suburban shoppers often have earlier and later Sunday access via the Kohl's counter.
