J.C. Penney is Expanding it’s Relationship With Sephora

J.C. Penney’s successful 10-year relationship with global beauty brand Sephora is expanding. Sephora currently has over 1,780 locations in 29 countries including 370 in North America and 546 in-store shops inside J.C. Penney stores. The department store retailer announced that it will open 60 additional Sephora shops in Penney stores by June 17th. Among the new shops will be a 3000 s. ft. flagship shop located in the newly relocated Penney at Northridge Mall in Salinas, CA. It will feature a larger assortment of emerging brands, merchandise displays and expanded room for service.

When Sephora made its debut inside J.C. Penney in 2006, it was a new concept.   

“J.C. Penney was one of the first department store retailers to forgo the traditional beauty counter and work with a global beauty brand to build a dynamic Sephora shop inside its stores,” Angela Swanner, senior VP for Sephora inside J.C. Penney. “Ten years and nearly 600 locations later, Sephora inside J.C. Penney has become a leading beauty destination that will continue to be a growth driver in 2016 and beyond."

The Penney-Sephora partnership isn’t limited to physical stores. Sephora also has a significant online presence on Penney’s e-commerce site.

UPSCALE COSMETICS SALES ARE BEAUTIFUL

The upscale beauty business continues to shine. In 2015, prestige beauty - makeup, fragrances and skin care products that are not found typically at drug stores, saw a 7% increase in sales. Sephora and Ulta each posted phenomenal sales results. Estee Lauder raised its sales forecast as demand for their product line are growing. The makeup subcategory was the strongest, with a 13% increase last year.

In a “selfie-ready age” and YouTube and Pinterest an easy way to get product tutorials, makeup trends are growing the sales. Thicker eyebrows are trendy, so products such as brow-enhancing serum and eyebrow mousse are becoming more popular. In our health-conscious society, products with natural or clinical orientation, which are pricier, comprise the largest share of prestige skincare sales.

JC Penney plans to accelerate its Sephora Inside JC Penney locations, and Kohl’s has redesigned its beauty area on 900 of its stores. Macy’s acquired $210 million Bluemercury, and plans to grow to 150 locations in the next 2 years. Target acquired Sonia Kashuk brand, and L’Oreal is opening brick-and-mortar locations of its NYX Cosmetics concept.

Accelerated Analytics works with a large percentage of beauty brands, such as L’Oreal, Anastasia Beverly Hills, Estee Lauder, Parlux Fragrances and LVMH. Click here to see our full list of beauty vendors, who utilize Accelerated Analytics’ POS reporting tools to track sales and inventory levels at their retailers, such as Dillard’s, Macy’s, Sephora and Ulta.

Sephora Announces Omnichannel Strategies for 2015

Sephora announced several strategies and technologies focused on omnichannel retailing, for both in-store and mobile shopping.

The first is “Sephora Flash”, an Amazon Prime style subscription service, offering customers free 2-day shipping on all products for $10 per year. The Flash will be free for their Rouge Beauty Insider members, who spend more than $1,000 in a calendar year.

Second is “Augmented Reality”, allowing customers to engage with custom content by placing their phone over the images of the nine female founders found in the retailer’s windows and display cases. Launching in April, scanning the images will show content options, such as interviews and product videos. The stores will also deploy beacons that a customer can opt-in on, receiving birthday alerts, loyalty program updates and events happening in the store.

Sephora is also launching “Pocket Contour”, a new mobile app, where a customer can upload a photo of herself and get personalized face contouring advice and product recommendations.

In their San Francisco corporate hub, Sephora has created an “Innovation Lab”, where the Sephora team can brainstorm and test ideas in a think-tank environment and the company can groom future management.

We’re completely focused on making shopping more efficient, intelligent and fun for our clients,” said Julie Bornstein, chief marketing and digital officer for Sephora.
