How to Track Skincare Prices Using a Beauty Product Data API

Posted on: April 19, 2025

Intro: Tracking prices across the beauty ecommerce space — especially for skincare — can be a painful, manual, and error-prone process. Prices fluctuate daily across platforms like Sephora, Ulta, Shopee, Mecca, and more.

For anyone building beauty tech tools, market dashboards, or competitor analysis platforms, the challenge isn’t just getting the data — it’s getting it clean, structured, and updated regularly.

That’s where CrawlFeeds comes in.

 

Why Price Tracking in Skincare Is Challenging

  • Product listings vary across each retailer

  • Prices change frequently with flash sales, seasonal offers, or low stock

  • Categories like "moisturizers," "serums," or "cleansers" are often inconsistently labeled

This makes it nearly impossible to manually maintain spreadsheets or scrape sites reliably.

 

What a Beauty Product Data API Should Offer

A good skincare product dataset should include:

  • SKU-level product matching

  • Category filtering (e.g., only "skincare")

  • Pricing data: current, original, and discount price

  • Stock status: in stock / out of stock

  • Retailer-specific fields: brand, currency, description, etc.

  • Weekly or monthly refreshes

 

Tracking Skincare Prices with CrawlFeeds

With CrawlFeeds, you can:

  • Select specific retailers to monitor (e.g. Sephora, Ulta, Mecca)
