If you didn’t know already, we have a new Sephora taking over where Five Below used to be, right here in Gainesville! With the Five Below gone, Sephora coming in, and Ulta now facing some competition, students are talking about their opinions.
Sephora carries some of the most viral products on social media, students naturally have favorites. “Stronger with you intensity by Armani, it’s really good.” junior Anderson Evans said. “My favorite product would be the one-size setting spray.” junior Caroline Quinn said. “They really have a good selection like Born In Roma by Valentino.” junior Jacob Elkhoueiry said.
Some think there will be intense competition between the two beauty stores taking place in the same shopping center, Ulta and Sephora have gone head-to-head for years on social media and now we get to experience it in person here in Gainesville! “I think Ulta is going to lose customers because I feel like more people prefer Sephora over Ulta.” Horrera said. Overall, as much as the Five Below will be missed, many are ready to move on to new and better things like the new Sephora here in Virginia Gateway!
