A Sephora store is finally opening up on Irish stores – and yes, we are hyped.
The first store to open up on our little island will be in Belfast’s Victoria Square Shopping Centre next year, meaning that the beauty giant’s iconic brands will be more accessible than ever before.
This is Sephora’s thirteenth store in the UK and the first ever on Irish shores.
Irish customers have been able to order Sephora online for the past few years, but the arrival of a bricks and mortar store will only make the Sephora experience that bit more exciting.
Most known for its seriously impressive range of high end beauty brands, including celeb collabs, as well as its focus on drugstore and more affordable products, Sephora has long been a leader in the high street beauty game.

As part of their expansion, the brand has said they want to bring “prestige beauty to new regions and key retail destinations.”
Sarah Boyd, Managing Director of Sephora UK, said: “We are so excited to announce that our first opening for 2026 will be another first for Sephora UK – our first store in Northern Ireland in Belfast’s Victoria Square.
“We’re truly committed to living up to our name of Sephora UK by bringing our beauty playgrounds to all corners of the nation. Belfast is a city filled with important history, areas of outstanding natural beauty and we cannot wait to become a part of the local community.”
Sephora’s Belfast store is set to open its doors in 2026, so there won’t be long left to wait at all.
The brand recently opened five new stores across the UK at Liverpool ONE, Sheffield Meadowhall, Manchester Arndale, Cardiff St David’s, and Oxford Westgate.
The French brand, founded in 1970, operates globally, and is particularly popular in the UK and US.
Dublin when?!
