Contact Sephora’s Customer Service
If you need to reach out to Sephora’s Customer Service for further help with canceling your order, there are a few ways to do it.
Online Form
You can fill out an online form found on Sephora’s website. Select “Order Inquiries” and fill out as much information as you can about the order you’re trying to cancel. Include your order number, the city where the item is being shipped, the item’s name and ID number, and any other relevant details.
Social Media
You can reach out directly to Sephora via their social media channels—Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram—at any time of day. Explain what happened and include a picture of your order if applicable. You should receive confirmation that your request has been received within 24 hours.
Phone Number
The fastest way to contact customer service is by phone. You can call 1-877-SEPHORA (1-877-737-4672) Monday through Friday from 8 am to midnight EST or Saturday and Sunday from 10 am to 9 pm EST. When asked what type of help you need, select “Order Inquiry/Cancel Order” and explain why you need to cancel your order.
Alternatives to Canceling an Order
If, for any reason, you cannot or do not wish to cancel your order, Sephora has a few alternatives that may suit your needs:
- Return the item – You can initiate a return within 60 days of the order date. Please note that original and return shipping fees are non-refundable.
- Exchange the item – Within 60 days of purchase, you can exchange an item in-store or online for merchandise of equal or lesser value. For online exchanges, the item must be unused and in its original packaging with all accessories included to be eligible.
- Receive store credit – If you would like to return your purchase for store credit rather than cash or a store refund, contact customer service at 1-877-737-4672.
Whichever method you choose, Sephora has you covered when it comes to returning or exchanging items – so don’t hesitate to reach out if you need any help!
Understand Sephora’s Cancelation Policy
Canceling a Sephora order is fairly straightforward – but it’s important to understand their policy before you get started.
Time
Sephora will process cancelations as long as they are requested within 1 hour of purchase. If more time has passed, then Sephora may not be able to cancel the order for you.
Refunds
If your order has been shipped, you won’t be able to cancel it; however, you can return the items within 60 days of receiving them. You will be refunded in the same form of payment used to make the purchase; this policy applies to all U.S orders, except those placed with PayPal (which are subject to different regulations).
Exceptions
Some items may not be eligible for return or cancelation: clearance items, personalized items and gift cards are all exempt from Sephora’s cancelation policy. If unsure, you can contact Sephora’s customer service team to double check before canceling your order.
