Anca Marola a partagé ceci10 years already since Viva Technology was launched. Hard to believe. I still remember being there when we were organizing the very first edition. Fast forward to today, and VivaTech has become Europe's largest startup and technology event. This year, Sephora was delighted to be part of the beautiful LVMH Dream Gallery, sharing how we are reimagining beauty customer experiences. From our Agentic Commerce partnerships with ChatGPT and Gemini, to AppStories that connect inspiration, discovery and entertainment directly to product pages and checkout, we're exploring new ways to make shopping more seamless, engaging and personal. A special thank you to our teams from US, China, SEA who represented Sephora on stage and brought these innovations to life. What struck me most throughout the week was how quickly AI is moving from experimentation to real customer value. Exciting times ahead for retail, beauty and customer experience. Kudos to LVMH teams organizing Olivier Le Garlantezec Hélène Freyss Franck LE MOAL Gonzague de Pirey and to our teams at Sephora spearheading innovation every day Amber Turley Nadine Graham Grace C.

Anca Marola a partagé ceciThank you Shoptalk for the opportunity to share our approach of Sephora when it comes to customer experience innovation. LLMs are a true disruptor of digital experience as we knew it - Conversational agents will help us to finally bridge the gap between online and our physical stores. At Sephora we are early adopters and continue to test and learn, both in evolving our own platforms and to partner with other platforms to co-define the beauty experience. It was a pleasure to share the stage with you Hilary Milnes and with Mahak Sharma to share our partnership with Open AI and 🚀launch of Sephora App inside ChatGPT.🚀Anca Marola a partagé ceciAs search moves from keywords to intent, Anca Marola, Global Chief Digital Officer at SEPHORA, shared how the retailer is embedding its experience directly into ChatGPT. The company continues to evolve its customer experience based several key insights, including: 🔵 Discovery now drives more than half of user behavior. 🔵 Shoppers expect personalized answers, not results lists. 🔵 AI is changing where the shopping journey begins. 🔵 Loyalty data is becoming central to personalization.

Anca Marola a aimé ceciAnca Marola a aimé ceciWhen rhode joined E.L.F. BEAUTY, I knew how rare it was to find such a fast-growing, disruptive brand with so much potential. I’ve spent more than 35 years in the consumer space, and rhode is one of the most special brands I’ve ever seen. At the time of the acquisition, rhode had reached $212 million in net sales with just 10 products, and what the team has accomplished since then is remarkable. In the past year, rhode delivered record-breaking launches with SEPHORA North America, Sephora U.K. and MECCA Brands in Australia and New Zealand. I continue to be impressed by what the rhode team has built: a brand with a clear point of view, a deep connection to its community and a real care for quality. I’m grateful for the trust that Hailey, Michael and Lauren Ratner, and Nick Vlahos placed in e.l.f. Beauty, and I’m proud of how our teams are working together to take that vision to more faces, spaces and places around the world. Now we’re taking another giant leap with rhode launching in Sephora Europe across 19 countries. It’s rhode’s third major retail launch in just over a year! This week, I was in Paris and it was amazing to see everything come to life firsthand. I enjoyed experiencing café rhode at Le Bonaparte, complete with a newsstand, vintage magazines and a distinctly rhode take on a classic Paris café, as well as walking through Sephora’s Champs-Élysées store, and watching the community's excitement for rhode. I know how much went into reaching this moment, and I want to thank everyone who made it happen. We are just getting started.

Anca Marola a aimé ceciAnca Marola a aimé ceciSEPHORA just did what every beauty brand said would never happen. TikTok got the product launch before Sephora’s own website. 💄 Launched Sept. 19, the “Sephora Drop Shop” brings monthly curated drops from partner brands to TikTok. Teasers and creator content build the hype, then it all comes together in a TikTok livestream with brand founders, creators, and guests showcasing products, answering questions, and selling live. For a short window, those products are exclusive to TikTok Shop. No Sephora.com. No stores. Sephora, the company that helped define modern prestige-beauty discovery, is now letting another platform own the first touchpoint. The timing isn’t exactly random. TikTok Shop’s U.S. revenue grew 120% year over year in H1 2025, while EMARKETER projected $15.82B in full-year U.S. revenue. Beauty is already TikTok’s most-searched category, with more than a billion searches a month. Creators, not curators, are driving discovery. Sephora is finally leaning into that reality. What this means for your 2026 playbook, marketers: 1️⃣ “Retailtainment” isn’t just a buzzword anymore. Live commerce can be the launch itself, not just a layer on top of it. 2️⃣ Exclusivity is changing, too. It’s no longer just about making something limited. Where you launch it can be part of the product strategy. 3️⃣ Sephora is still figuring this out. The exclusivity windows aren’t even fully established yet, which means there’s an opportunity to experiment before everyone else copies the format. The next time someone asks whether TikTok Shop is actually worth testing, this is the case study to bring to the table. #Joli

Après les États-Unis, le Canada et le Royaume-Uni, la marque fondée par Hailey Bieber élargit l’accès à ses soins et à son maquillage hybride, en boutique comme en ligne. À Paris, le Café Rhode accompagne ce lancement du 30 septembre au 4 octobre, sur réservation, avec une expérience inspirée du bistrot français. Les clients qui consomment sur place reçoivent une carte promotionnelle permettant d’obtenir un échantillon de soin pour tout achat Rhode dans les magasins Sephora participants, dans la limite des stocks disponibles. Cette initiative prolonge la découverte de la marque jusque dans le réseau de distribution. Pour E.L.F. BEAUTY, propriétaire de Rhode depuis 2025, cette implantation constitue une nouvelle étape de croissance internationale. Le partenariat associe la communauté et l’identité créative de Rhode à la présence européenne de Sephora, avec des installations dédiées et des exclusivités conçues pour accompagner la rencontre avec de nouveaux consommateurs.

Anca Marola a aimé ceciAnca Marola a aimé ceciI’ve finally started nursing school at Pitié-Salpêtri��re — I’m happy to say that I think I made the right decision — this really is for me! 🩺 🏥💊💉🩸 The first few days have been quite intense: nearly 360 first-year students, lots of new connections, discovering this incredible 33-hectare Pitié-Salpêtrière campus and its history, and getting to grips with our brand-new university curriculum.… a huge amount to take in before our first clinical placement in November! But above all, I feel even more inspired than before. …I’ve found a true role model in Florence Nightingale. Not only a founder of modern nursing, but also a pioneer in the use of statistics and data visualization to improve healthcare. Combining care, science, data and transformation in the 19th century — how inspiring is that? I’m also discovering the depth of a profession focused on the patient as a whole person, complementing the medical approach that focuses primarily on the disease. So finally not that far away from my previous career. Today, nursing is also a true academic discipline. After three years studying between the IFSI and Sorbonne University, we will graduate with a Bachelor’s-level degree, with opportunities to continue into research and even a PhD in Nursing Science. There is still so much to fight for when it comes to the recognition and value of the nursing profession. But one thing is certain: I couldn’t be happier with my decision. Even with an average age of around 19 in my class! #Nursing #CareerChange #NursingSchool #FlorenceNightingale #NursingScience #PitiéSalpêtrière #SorbonneUniversity
