Discontinued Brands & Products

[#1]

@moderator (and want feedback from everyone on Beauty Talk): 
I would really like to see Sephora add a link which could be accessed from the home page going to a section listing brands and products that are being discontinued.  Right now the only way to find out is when I go to order one of my favorite products and I find that it’s no longer listed on the website.  The way it is right now, when an entire brand is being discontinued the brand’s product page will still pop up when selected, but it will only have the items that are still remaining in Sephora’s stock.

It would be really great if Sephora would add a link to the home page that says something similar to other websites I’ve seen that has this feature that’s called, for instance:

-          Going, Going, Gone

-          Last Chance

-          Goodbyes

-          RIPs

-          Curtain Call

I know this would help me a lot and I’d like to know what all of the rest of you think about the idea, too.

Thanks!

Great idea!

Yes! I would love that. Atleast a month in advance so I can put money aside for it. Imagine if they just randomy got rid of some favorite products like MUFE HD foundation or Urban Decay eye primer everyone would be fuming

Another reason for the advance notice of discontinued products would be for new purchases to decide if they want to try a product that Sephora will no longer carry.

That's a great idea!  I too have been disappointed a number of times when I finally get around to placing an order and find a bunch of things gone. Plus if Sephora had a "goodbyes" section, I think it would help them clear out the remaining inventory faster since we could use it to stock up. The sale section as it is now is so big (which is a good thing in some ways) that I don't always take the time to scroll all the way down and find all the discontinued items.

Great idea, as always tenngal! I have been frustrated by things like this, too! It would help to know what I have to go elsewhere for. It would make my beauty shopping more efficient.

Excellent idea! It would be great to have a heads-up so we could fill our bathroom cabinets with a good supply of things before they're discontinued....wait, my cabinets are already full, lol

[#8]

LOL!  My cabinets are already full too, if the dog isn't careful, I might stuff some of my skincare stuff in with his. Just got to remember not to put Advantix (a once a month flea and tick treatment) on instead of my wrinkle remover!!!!

Definitely!  It drives me crazy when things I've been wanting to try just disappear from my shopping list.  I understand when it's an LE item, but when entire brands or product lines are discontinued sometimes I don't find out until it's already out-of-stock.  If there was a good-bye section it would give us a "heads-up".

Great idea Tenngal! I'll forward your suggestion.
