Sephora Middle East has just announced the opening of its newest branches across the GCC. With 52 store locations already up and running in the region, the beauty retailer can now also be found in Dubai's Ibn Battuta Mall, Qatar's Gulf Mall and Saudi Arabia's Jouri Mall and Mall of Dhahran.
According to the France-based retailer, its most successful GCC store locations are in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, as both countries are home to consumers with high purchasing power.
Sephora has quickly become a beauty lover’s paradise all over the world, but especially here in the Middle East where make-up artists flock to the store for the latest in Huda Beauty lashes and lip contours, Too Faced foundations and mascaras, and Anastasia Beverley Hills eyebrow products. Sephora’s in-house cosmetics and beauty products are also quite popular — the brand’s latest launches include fingertip liquid eyeliners, make-up primers, skin booster serums and face masks. See some of our favourites in the gallery above.

Tailors and retailers miss out on back-to-school rush
Tailors and retailers across the city said it was an ominous start to what is usually a busy season for sales.
With many parents opting to continue home learning for their children, the usual rush to buy school uniforms was muted this year.
“So far we have taken about 70 to 80 orders for items like shirts and trousers,” said Vikram Attrai, manager at Stallion Bespoke Tailors in Dubai.
“Last year in the same period we had about 200 orders and lots of demand.
“We custom fit uniform pieces and use materials such as cotton, wool and cashmere.
“Depending on size, a white shirt with logo is priced at about Dh100 to Dh150 and shorts, trousers, skirts and dresses cost between Dh150 to Dh250 a piece.”
A spokesman for Threads, a uniform shop based in Times Square Centre Dubai, said customer footfall had slowed down dramatically over the past few months.
“Now parents have the option to keep children doing online learning they don’t need uniforms so it has quietened down.”
