I finally got to meet the Sephora Vending Machine that features the top 50 best-selling products at their stores.
It certainly stopped me in my tracks. “What a great idea!” I exclaimed inwardly. This is what women need in airports when you’ve forgotton or lost your luggage and you just don’t have the time (or energy) to stock up on decent beauty essentials.
As much as some hotels make an effort with providing branded toiletries, most still don’t and nothing makes me pout more than to use substandard shampoo or body lotion.
Let’s take a look at what goodies are on offer in this beauty dream machine…
Bare Minerals mineral makeup makes perfect sense — foundation that can be powdered on in seconds without a drop of liquid needed. Perfect for hand luggage.
This Philosophy travel kit, USD35, looks like something I would be very happy with.
There are also a host of skincare products.
All you need to do is to navigate the touch screen to buy what you want, swipe your credit card or insert cash, and boom, you get your product in an instant. You don’t even need to deal with pesky sales assistants who want to make small talk.
I haven’t bought anything from this great invention but I will the next time I’m in the US. I was just so well prepared on the beauty products front. Perhaps it pays to travel even lighter, just so I could use this vending machine. I’m crazy, I know!.

@Yasumi: I know, right? Talk about beauty products in your hands in just seconds. Apparently it’s only available in some airports like Vegas – boo.
