To our bold, creative, and always curious Beauty Insider Community ✨Forum✨ members:
We’re sharing a bittersweet message today—this coming August we will be retiring this Forum. We know, we’re bummed too.
For more than 15 years, our Beauty Insider Community has been a place for Sephora die-hards to talk about their favorite products, ask questions about routines, and show off their favorite looks. While this was a difficult decision, we've loved seeing this group thrive and we're incredibly proud of what we've built together.
We'll be here every step of the way as we start to wind things down. 🤝 Here's what to expect along the way...
June 3: The Forum will become read-only and will only be accessible on desktop or mobile (no more app!). This means that you have until June 3 to make your final contributions to your favorite threads (Masking Challenge! Shop Your Stash! April Hauls!), revisit any favorite posts, and connect with your fellow BIC-ers.Your Community profile will also be retired on June 3, and your profile photo will be replaced with Winky. REMINDER: Community Gallery is not going away, so your Gallery posts and profile are here to stay!Mid-August: Community Forum and its posts will no longer be accessible.
Have no fear! There are still plenty of ways to stay connected with us:
📷 Gallery: Post your selfies, shelfies, hauls, and more
💯 Ratings & Reviews: Sound off on products
🗨 Questions & Answers: Help others with your wealth of beauty knowledge
🤳🏾 Social: Follow us on Instagram and TikTok for the latest Sephora news and drops
We are immeasurably grateful to you for your engagement and enthusiasm on this platform over the years. You made this a safe space where everyone felt seen and accepted. We may be signing off here, but you will always be welcome at Sephora. Thank you for everything!
Read on for more info and FAQ about the transition:
When is the last day I can use the Forum?
The last day to contribute new posts and content to the Forum is June 3. Starting June 3, Forum content will remain available in a read-only state until early August, so be sure to copy or take any screenshots you may want to save in the meantime!
If the Forum is going away, how do I get in touch with Sephora?
There are still ways to connect with us! Find us on social, or head to our customer service hub here: sephora.com/beauty/customer-service
Will Reviews, Q&A, and Gallery continue to be supported long‑term?
Yes! We hope you continue posting your selfies, shopping hauls, and videos on the Gallery, sounding off on products in Ratings & Reviews, and sharing your beauty expertise in Questions & Answers on product pages.
What happens to my profile picture?
Customized profile photos will be going away on June 3 as part of the Forum closure.
What happens to my username or nickname?
Your Community username is here to stay! It will continue to be associated with any Gallery posts, Ratings and Reviews on product pages, or Question & Answer content you share.
What happens to my badges, ranks, or status levels?
We will say goodbye to Community badges and ranks (for example, FRESH FACE II, RISING STAR III, ICON I) when the Forum retires. Your Beauty Insider tier (Insider, VIB, or Rouge) or any progress on active Beauty Insider Challenges will not be affected! Your BI points will also be unaffected.
Will all my content go away?
Only your Forum content—including your profile (sephora.com/profile/me) and posts—will be going away as we say goodbye to the Community Forum. We encourage you to continue sharing content with your fellow Sephora shoppers on the Community Gallery, Ratings & Reviews on product pages, and Questions & Answers on product pages!
Is there a way to save my posts?
We encourage you to save down any photos or screenshots you want to keep of your beautiful Forum content before it closes! To see all of your posts, go to the Forum home at community.sephora.com and then click “My Posts” to see your activity history.
How long will I have access to save my content ?
You will have the ability to screenshot or save any of your content until the Forum closes in August.
What will happen to all my profile/account information?
Your Community profile (sephora.com/profile/me) will go away as we say goodbye to the Community Forum. You can continue to view your other Sephora information in the following places:
-Beauty Preferences: sephora.com/profile/beautypreferences
-Beauty Insider Summary: sephora.com/beautyinsider
-Account Settings: sephora.com/profile/myaccount
Will old Forum content redirect somewhere else on sephora.com?
Starting in August, previous Forum threads will be redirected to relevant shopping pages on sephora.com or, in some cases, the Gallery.

Exciting @danielledanielle! They’re launching in Hong Kong first in May, and in keeping with their approach are opening up the design of their endcap to voting. Will be interesting to see what their growth/progression at Sephora looks like.

Welcome!! 💕 Under-eye creasing is sooo common 😭 what helped me most was using way less concealer, really hydrating first, and setting right away with a tiny bit of powder. Also tapping out lines before setting makes a huge difference!

Yeah, I just read a blog from 2017 from Sephora that states that they are working on website failure issues. IN 2017. I am noone but want to tell the universe that I give up on Sephora. You closed down the store near me and I can NEVER order or browse your website with ease. Take good care beauties. Lates.
