Sephora is making shopping a little more peaceful with new Quiet Hours!

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the bright lights, loud music, or strong fragrances while shopping, you’ll love this thoughtful change.

Sephora is introducing Quiet Hours at participating stores to create a more sensory-friendly experience by minimizing music and fragrances during designated times. While these quieter shopping hours were designed with sensory-sensitive shoppers in mind, anyone who enjoys a calmer, less hectic shopping trip will likely appreciate them!

Hip Tip: We called our local Sephora and found out their Quiet Hours are Tuesdays and Saturdays from 10AM–11AM (the first hour they’re open). Since schedules can vary by location, it’s worth giving your local store a quick call to find out when they offer Quiet Hours before you head out.

Stay calm this holiday season – start our 2026 holiday shopping challenge!
