Sephora Product Scraper

Scrape the full Sephora product catalog across 14 storefronts (US, AU, NZ, SG, MY, ID, TH, PH, MX, DE, RO, SE, GR, DK) with one unified output schema. Pull brand, title, ingredients, claims, full variant matrix with shades and SKUs, ratings histogram, top reviews, top Q&A, and rich media in a single dataset that drops cleanly into BI, ETL, or comparison tooling.

Why this scraper

• 14 regional storefronts under one input form, no per-region forking
• 80+ fields per product: variants (every shade, size, SKU, UPC), options, ingredients, claims, awards, ratings histogram, secondary ratings, sentiment tags, top reviews, top Q&A
• Search by keyword, by category slug, or paste any Sephora URL (product, category, brand, search) and the scraper auto-detects the storefront
• Cross-region market field (sea-au, sea-nz, americas-us, europe-de, ...) so multi-market analytics work out of the box
• Forward-paginated walks with checkpoint resume; pulls 24-60 fully-attributed products per search request

Specials, was-price & discount

Sephora's SEA storefronts (AU/NZ/SG/MY/ID/TH/PH) have exactly one discount collection, the site's own "Sale" page (/sale): there is no separate clearance, multibuy or member-price collection on that group. Set

specialsOnly: true

Every product record, from a normal search, a URL, or a specialsOnly run, carries four additive, always-present discount fields: isOnSpecial (bool), wasPrice (the strike-through original price, null when not discounted), savingsAmount and savingsPercent. A non-discounted product gets isOnSpecial: false and wasPrice: null, never a fabricated markdown. soldOut (bool) reports stock status.

Input parameters

Send results into your apps (MCP connectors)

Optionally pipe the scraped results into the apps you already use, via Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectors. This is an extra delivery step after the scrape — the Apify dataset is never changed.

What gets written to the connector: a condensed, human-readable summary of each record — not the full JSON. Each item becomes one entry with a title and its key fields flattened to plain text. The complete record always stays in the Apify dataset.

1. Authorize a connector once under Apify → Settings → Integrations (Notion, Linear, Airtable, or Apify).
2. Select it in the "Pipe results into your apps" input field. (If the picker is empty, you haven't authorized a connector yet.)
3. For Notion, also set notionParentPageUrl to the page where items should be created.

The connection is mediated by Apify's MCP proxy, so this actor never sees your third-party credentials. Leave the field empty to skip.

Plan requirement

• Free plan: works for AU/NZ/EU storefronts on the default proxy in many cases, may return zero results on the US storefront where residential exits are needed.
• Starter or higher: required for full reliability across all 21+ storefronts. Residential proxy access is included from Starter; pin the country to the storefront's home country (US for sephora.com, NZ for sephora.nz, FR for sephora.fr, etc.) for the most stable runs.
• Choose the matching storefront in the input form (or paste URLs from that storefront in URL mode); the actor follows your input and does not auto-redirect across regions.
