Our Ultimate Top 10 Buys From Sephora Australia

BY: HOLLY BARTTER

When the doors of the Sephora Australia opened in Pitt Street Mall in Sydney in December last year, you could scarcely get in the door to browse. The pull of being able to finally swatch the Sephora exclusive brands was strong, and even twelve months later you’d be hard pressed to find the store with less than 20 people perusing the two-level flagship.
