A Sephora employee recently revealed a secret tip for saving money. Buying beauty products from specific locations can unlock special benefits at Kohl's department stores.
Insider Savings Tip Shared Online
An employee known as u/dxzina initiated a conversation on Reddit to spread their money-saving strategies.
Sephora, the well-known beauty brand, operates numerous kiosks inside Kohl's department stores. This employee highlighted that these kiosks' shopping experiences and policies significantly differ from those at standalone Sephora shops.
"It's quite a bit different than working at a freestanding location, including what our products and policies are," they explained.
While some shoppers have noticed that the Sephora sections within Kohl's might not have as much stock, there's a notable advantage to buying from these in-store kiosks. Customers can earn Kohl's rewards on their Sephora purchases, adding extra benefits to their shopping experience.
In a recent online discussion, an employee shared a valuable tip for shoppers seeking extra savings. The insight came after a user questioned the advantage of shopping at a Sephora within Kohl's compared to a standalone Sephora store.

Another user quickly highlighted a significant benefit: "You can earn points for Kohl's rewards in addition to Beauty Insider points," they explained. "Since I shop at Kohl's, those extra discounts help."
The employee confirmed this advantage, agreeing with the commenter's point.
Kohl's official website has stated that customers can earn Kohl's rewards when they buy Sephora products at their stores, in addition to Sephora's benefits.
However, there's a catch: shoppers cannot use Kohl's Cash to purchase at Sephora counters. This limitation means that while shoppers can accumulate rewards by buying Sephora items inside Kohl's, they can't use all their rewards on any Sephora product.

Marking favorites and patiently waiting for sales can lead to significant savings, particularly with limited-edition beauty items.
For instance, the Sephora Collection's Beautiful Crush Palette's price dropped from $50 to $30 months after release, showcasing the benefits of patience for savvy shoppers. Regularly checking the palette's reviews might provide additional insights into its value over time.
Exploring the sale section exclusively available online reveals unexpected deals on products once sold at total retail price. Products like the Naked Flushed Palette have been found at half their original cost, highlighting the potential for discovering high-quality beauty products at a discount.
Signing up for the Beauty Insider Membership offers immediate perks, including a free birthday gift, such as lipstick or eyeliner, for VIB Rouge members. This membership not only rewards purchases with points redeemable for deluxe samples but also offers exclusive sets for dedicated shoppers, featuring brands like Marc Jacobs and Giorgio Armani.
Online shopping on Sephora's website is enhanced by using coupon codes and pursuing gifts with minimum purchases, often starting at $25. The ever-changing lineup of free items, alongside a dedicated exploration of weekly specials and checkout offers, enriches the shopping experience.
The value sets section presents a curated selection of beauty kits at starting prices as low as $10, ascending from there. These sets offer exceptional deals and serve as perfect gifts, showcasing the diverse ways to maximize value while indulging in beauty shopping.
