Sephora UK announces a major store opening in Edinburgh at St James Quarter this summer, marking the brand’s first Scottish store and a double launch alongside a Glasgow location at Silverburn.

The Edinburgh and Glasgow stores will carry brands such as Rhode, Haus Labs, Makeup by Mario, and Sephora UK exclusives for local customers.

Managing director Sarah Boyd says the openings bring double the energy, access, and magic to Scotland and thanks Scottish customers for their patience.

Shoppers will enjoy in-store services including personalised beauty consultations, gift-wrapping, engraving, immersive experiences, and Sephora UK’s Beauty Scan technology for tailored recommendations.

The launch supports Sephora UK’s omnichannel strategy, with shopping available via the Sephora app and the MySephora loyalty programme for points, exclusive offers, and early access to launches.

Both stores will feature Sephora’s signature black-and-white stripe motif, with a Scottish nod on hoardings ahead of openings.

Hoardings at both sites will display the slogan “Twice the stripes, twice as bonnie!” alongside the classic stripes.
