There are few things better than an epic beauty sale, especially when it involves dermatologist-approved brands and products for up to 30 percent off. Enter SkinStore’s Black Friday offers ripe for the picking and buying — and best of all, many of the deals last beyond Black Friday and go through December 1, blessing you with abundant time to shop to your heart’s content.
Check out the full list of discounts (and the parameters for each), but as a sneak peek, you can score up to 55 percent off select skin-care tools and up to 30 percent off editor-favorite brands like PCA Skin, Obagi Clinical, ReFa, and so many more. Some deals require promo codes but most are automatically reflected on-site, so you don’t have to use a single brain cell to figure out how much you’re saving. (Thanks, SkinStore.)
So what are you waiting for? Start with a few of our picks below, which hopefully inspire you to add some new skin care to your growing collection. Dry winter skin doesn’t stand a chance.
Skin Care
This hydrating mask from PCA Skin is essentially what would happen if you could bottle and sell eight (maybe even nine) hours of beauty sleep. Just apply a layer before bed and the hyaluronic acid-packed formula gets to work right away. We love the luminous morning-after glow of this intensely hydrating mask so much it won a coveted Best of Beauty Award this year.
If pesky pores are a near-constant source of stress for you, Dr. Brandt has you covered. The brand’s fan-favorite Microdermabrasion Age Defying Exfoliator buffs away dead skin cells, leaving behind smoother, brighter skin. This treatment attacks dull, congested skin from two angles: professional-grade crystals gently polish the skin’s surface while alpha hydroxy acids (AHA) penetrate the skin for another layer of exfoliation, leaving behind a radiant finish that looks like you spent a fortune at a fancy spa.
Feeling like it’s finally time to hop on the retinol train but don’t know where to start? Sunday Riley Evening Zzz Retinoid Duo comes with two retinol-packed serums that go to work overnight refining skin texture, improving discoloration, and relieving skin congestion. This kit works for beginner and advanced retinol users alike — the brand recommends applying the treatments once every two days when you’re first starting out. Then, once you’ve gotten the hang of things, move to daily application in the evenings and wake up looking more restored every day.
By now it couldn’t be clearer that dermatologists and editors alike are obsessed with EltaMD’s UV Clear SPF 46. This Best of Beauty winner is a perfect pick for all skin tones because it goes on invisible and doesn’t dare to leave a chalky white cast. Spiked with redness-reducing niacinamide and moisture-boosting hyaluronic acid, it’s also beneficial for acne-prone and sensitive skin. What more can you ask for?
