Sephora
Founded in 1970 in France by Dominique Mandonnaud, Sephora is the leading chain of perfume and cosmetics in France and one of the strongest presences in beauty chains around the world. Sephora features stores in 27 other countries besides France and luckily for us, the Czech Republic is one of the 27. Sephora is a mecca for lovers of cosmetics, perfume, hair products, bath products and more as the spacious stores feature a large assortment of top names in the beauty industry. Sephora is hands down the best place in Prague to go shopping for fine makeup and perfume as well as beauty accessories. It is clear upon entering Sephora that you are in cosmetic and perfume heaven as the sweet and spicy smells of perfume and the rainbow of makeup colors pleasantly overwhelm your olfactory and visual senses. The name of the beauty mecca, Sephora, is the creation of Dominique Mandonnaud who combined the name Zipporah (the beautiful wife of Moses) with the Greek word sephos, which means pretty. Sephora not only carries the crème de la crème of beauty products for women and men including Dior, Bobbi Brown, Clinique, Guerlain, Urban Decay, the Sephora Collection, Stila, Kat Von D, Lancome, Korres, Benefit, Ole Henriksen and StriVectin SD to name a select few, they also provide unparalleled services from makeup experts in an interactive environment, online shopping, and much more. Owned by LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy), the best luxury goods group in the world, Sephora is the place to purchase all your beauty needs.
