The key reasons Boots, Superdrug and Selfridges can't compete with Sephora in the Bullring
If you're a fan of make-up and beauty, you'll know how Superdrug, Boots and Selfridges have upped their game in the Bullring in recent years. There are more brands than ever available, including products that were once only available in the USA, incurring import costs if you ordered them to be delivered from the States because your favourite influencer swore they were 'obsessed' and that you 'needed' them.
But despite the stores' drive to bring customers new products that span a range of price points and shades, there are still items that Birmingham beauty fans have been lusting for that were exclusive to huge beauty retailer Sephora. Items that from 10am on Wednesday, November 13 will be available in the city centre for the first ever time.
From make-up to skincare and fragrance, Sephora is bringing names to Birmingham that many have never had the opportunity to touch, smell or try before. They include celebrity brands and viral products that are world-renowned thanks to the hype on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube.
