I've been trying to track prices for some of my skincare staples because honestly everything is getting so expensive lately and I really want to be smarter about when I buy. My logic was that there must be something like CamelCamelCamel but specifically for Sephora or at least beauty sites in general? I've been looking at the Drunk Elephant Protini moisturizer and some Kerastase stuff and the prices seem to jump around a bit but I can never tell if I'm getting a real deal or if it's just the standard MSRP.
So I was thinking maybe there was a browser extension or something. I found this one site called PriceBefore and another one called Karma but they don't really give me that nice, clean graph I'm looking for. They just kind of alert me if it drops. I want to see the long-term trends to know if I should wait for the VIB sale or if brands ever do their own random markdowns on the Sephora site itself.
Has anyone found a way to get actual history charts? I'm trying to save up for a big haul for my sister's birthday in October and don't want to get ripped off just because I didn't wait a week. Most of the stuff I found online seems to be for Amazon or big box stores like Walmart but Sephora is such a specific beast with its rewards program and all that. Any secret tools out there?
Agreed, Sephora's dynamic front-end unfortunately makes scraping difficult for most trackers.
