Changed
⚡ Faster runs end-to-end — typical product requests now complete in ~3–8 seconds
🧼 Cleaner descriptions and ingredient lists — shortDescription, longDescription, suggestedUsage, and ingredient fields now arrive as readable text, never raw HTML markup
🏷️ Refreshed actor title — "Sephora Product Details & Reviews Scraper (with Demographics)"
🗂️ Better Apify Store category — listed under E-commerce (was Automation), so beauty data buyers find the actor in the right place
📝 Cleaner Apify Store listing — new description, improved Google Search snippet
📖 README rewritten — clearer Quick Start, Input Configuration, Output schema for both modes, use cases, FAQ
Fixed
