Saying goodbye to summer can be bittersweet, but at least there are a lot of good beauty products on sale to soften the blow. I scoured the internet to find the very best sales, and the very best deals within those sales. Below, a list of extremely worthwhile, discounted beauty products, beloved by me, and even some celebrities — like the Aquis’Hair Turban (which Kourtney Kardashian is a big fan of) the Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream (a Kate Hudson pick) and Pai’s Rosehip Oil (Natalie Portman’s go-to). Enjoy!
I love the British brand Elemis for their gentle, effective, and to-the-point formulas.This product is a super-lightweight yet deeply nourishing everyday cream that’s rich in marine peptides, vitamin E, and antioxidants. It soaks into the skin quickly without leaving any greasiness behind.
This is one of my favorite face oils ever. It’s a wonderful, hydrating and nourishing oil that’s rich in antioxidants and omegas, which help to calm, rejuvenate, and protect the skin from environmental stressors. It delivers a wonderfully intense surge of moisture to the skin, but I’ve also found that it helps soothe and reduce swelling related to breakouts and heal scabs. And it makes the skin look really, really glowy. I use a few drops of this at the very end of my evening skin-care routine.
I truly adore these gold hydrating under-eye patches from Wander Beauty — especially on groggy mornings. And I’m not the only one: This product won a Best of Beauty Award in 2019. These patches are drenched in moisturizing ingredients like jojoba oil and shea butter and have a cooling effect that helps reduce puffiness.
Truth be told, I’m a sucker for any Tatcha sale — the products are expensive but worth it, and I like to nab them whenever they’re discounted. If you want to take advantage of their sale, this duo set is going to be your best bet. It includes their skin-smoothing and radiance-inducing vitamin C serum, which uses 20 percent vitamin C and 10 percent AHA, and their skin-softening essence, which is rich in superfoods that condition and replenish the skin.
This weightless cream is a great option for anyone who hates the thick, greasy feeling that so many moisturizers leave behind. This formula sinks into the skin instantly and leaves a velvety, soft finish.
Ace Beaute makes some of the most-pigmented and creamiest eyeshadow formulas I’ve ever tried. If you’re looking to experiment with some pops of color on your lid — and at this point in the pandemic, it might be time for a cheery eye! — these are great to start with. No one knows how to do rich mustard yellows and soda-pop oranges quite like Ace Beaute!
This is one of my favorite hair tools of all time. I will not go on vacation without packing it in my bag. It’s made with something called “aquiflex fiber,” a fabric that not only dries hair in less than half the time it takes with a standard cotton towel to (I swear, less than half), but it’s so gentle that it leaves your hair looking silky and feeling soft.
These divine cream highlighters, created by makeup artist Danessa Myricks, are a great way to add a beautiful, sunkissed glow to your skin. They can can be used alone on the high points of your face (brow bone, cheekbone, bridge of the nose) or mixed into foundations to give you a pearlescent, lit-from-within glow. I love.
