Kohl’s, the popular clothing and housewares department store chain, is rolling out five new “store-within-a-store” Sephora locations in Alabama by the end of 2023, according to Chain Store Age.

What is a “Store Within a Store”?

All Sephora at Kohl’s locations are about 2,500-square feet in size. They offer a curated assortment of  makeup, skincare, hair and fragrance brands. Along with the diverse range of products, the in-stores are staffed with Sephora-trained beauty advisors who offer personalized beauty consultations and assistance with finding products.

5 New Sephora In-Stores

The five Sephora in-store locations are planned for the following Alabama Kohl’s department stores in 2023:

  • Birmingham — 1100 Inverness Corners, Birmingham, 35242

  • Prattville—1460 Cotton Exchange, 36066

Highly Successful Strategy
