Poll: Would you like Sephora to come back to the UK?
In case you didn't realise, we did briefly have French beauty emporium Sephora on our shores from 2002 to 2005, and although in reality they'd be unlikely to come back seeing as their plan for UK domination failed last time, would you want them to? I'm forever bemoaning the lack of Sephora in this country (even if they just shipped to us, that would be more than ok!) so it's clear what my opinion is, but what's yours?

Sephora is my favourite place in the world! I live in Scotland so it's even harder to get good brands (although I have to admit I love Harvey Nicks).
Sephora should definitely come back! And install themselves in Scotland as well as England this time!
I feel you should start a petition on here Kiss and Makeup!

Two Sephora stores opened up in Calgary, Canada in July... no longer do I have to pay through the nose to have items shipped from the US (which they did very well). I don't know how you all get on without it!
Aww Keely I'm so jealous, I was in Calgary in April and there was no Sephora then! I couldn't even get it shipped from the US because I didn't have a Canadian credit card, boo!
Lauren - I'd love to start a petition but I'm not sure they'd ever come back seeing as they closed all their stores down last time, boo hoo. They should ship to us from France though, not exactly far is it!
I agree with Lauren! But I heard Sephora was in Edinburgh for a short time, (only found that out a couple of weeks ago). I would LOVE Sephora to come back, because every time I got into the Sephora's in the rest of Europe and I am instantly jealous of they get all this and we don't anymore. C'mon Sephora, we won't blow the second chance!

Even if they just shipped to us it'd be a bonus! I have a US post box which has a personal shopper service and have to use that at the moment. Everything still works out a lot cheaper though!

Gee - There was one in Scotland!
SelinaC - I know, I'm dreaming of a Sephora.co.uk!
I remember going to Sephora stores in Brent Cross and Islington. Even though they were much smaller than the ones in Paris and Tokyo that I went to, I was still sad that they were closed.
Maybe the two stores in London were too small and were never seen as beauty shopping destinations...
I have signed the petition, by the way! Bring it back!!
