Cult favorites and prestige beauty brands will soon be available at Kohl’s Corp.

The department store retailer and Sephora revealed the lineup of brands that will be available at the upcoming Sephora shops inside Kohl’s.

The format will launch in some 200 stores, with another 400 targeted for 2022.  A total of 850 stores are expected by 2023. Customers will also be able to shop the assortment online at Kohl’s web site starting in August. 

The Sephora at Kohl’s shops will offer more than 125 brands, 75% of which will be exclusive to the format, in makeup, skincare, hair and fragrance. The featured brands are a mix of hard-to-find cult faves, celebrity brands and well-known prestige labels. All purchases will be eligible for Sephora Beauty Insider points.
