Black Friday Beauty Deals!

November 21st, 2017 by Karen 15 Comments

Beauty steals and deals for Black Friday!

You could spend Black Friday, a.k.a. the day after Thanksgiving, sprawled out on your couch recovering from your turkey- and carb-induced food coma, OR you could spend the day putting a whole bunch of discounted beauty products into your cart and debating whether or not to pull the trigger.

Or you could do both?! That’s what I’ll be doing. 🙂

Here are the best of the best I’ve seen so far. If I find anything else worthy of note before Fri-yay, I’ll be sure to add it to the bottom of the post in the “Noteworthy” section.


The deal: Buy one, get one half off. Exclusions apply (holiday collections, Diptyque and Vintner’s Daughter don’t apply). Promotion starts in stores on Wednesday, November 22, 2017, and online Friday, November 24, 2017 through Monday, November 27.

— R+Co High Dive is a ride-or-die-caliber leave-in conditioner for all hair types. I just finished my second bottle and plan to stock up on at least two more; it’s *THAT* good. (Here’s my review.)

— More R+Co must haves: Analog Cleansing Foam Conditioner (review), Sail Soft Wave Spray (review), Control Flexible Paste (review), Death Valley Dry Shampoo (review) and Trophy Shine + Texture Spray (review).

— I wear at least one thing by Hourglass Cosmetics almost every day. Some classic workhorse products that you can wear all year long include the Ambient Lighting Blush (shade Diffused Heat on me), Vanish Seamless Foundation Stick (review), Girl Lip Stylo (I wear Explorer, Dreamer and Peacemaker all the time) and Ambient Lighting Bronzer in Radiant Bronze.

— The Surratt Curler is life. Best one out there right meow IMO (review).

— Skin care to consider — Kat Burki PH+ Enzyme Essence, Sunday Riley Good Genes, Sunday Riley C.E.O.

My fave!

— Byredo Gypsy Water — I could happily wear this scent every day for the rest of my life (review). I’m also a fan of Mojave Ghost.

The deal: 25% off everything! — no exclusions now until Tuesday, November 28. They have an extended “no quibbles” return policy through the holidays, too, so orders placed between November 20, 2017 and January 10th, 2018 may be returned through January 31, 2018 (you’ll need the original box containing all of the original product packaging and accessories, though).

— The Soft Curl Iron is a must. I’ve tried more curling irons than I can count, from high end to low, and the GHD Soft Curl is my go-to and has been for years. It heats up quicker than the rest and creates the shiniest, longest-lasting loose curls (here’s a review, and a recent pic of my hair after using it).

— The Classic Wave Iron for loose, ’40s-style siren waves (see on me).

— The Creative Wave Wand — The tapered barrel creates tousled, casual curls of varying sizes.

— Classic Curl Iron — Has a 1-inch barrel for tighter, shiny, smooth curls.

The deal: 40% off site-wide from November 23, 2017 through November 26, 2017. Early access on November 22 for email subscribers. Free shipping on orders $50 and over.

— The Lip Gels feel light on the lip and lays down mad moisture (see on me).

— Milk Body Butter is a hydrating fave for my dry skin that I’ve been faithful to since the early Aughts (here’s a review).

H2O+ Beauty Milk Body Butter ($22 for an 8-oz. bottle)

— Oasis Hydrating Treatment — When I was in my 30s and my face was oily, I lived for this lightweight but moisturizing gel.

— Milk Body Wash — Hydrating and foamy.

— ZOYA: 50% off any order, plus free shipping with code FRIYAY on Friday, November 24, 2017. Includes all Nail Polish, Holiday Kits, Lip Shades, Naked Manicure, Qtica, Smart Spa and treatments. Valid for US and Canadian customers until 11:59pm ET (international shipping fees apply for Canadian customers).

— DHC: 20% off site-wide until November 27, 2017.

— BUXOM COSMETICS: 25% off orders, and free shipping with code BFCM25, from Friday, November 24, 2017 through Monday, November 27, 2017.

— ANTONYM COSMETICS: 30% off, and free shipping, from Friday, November 24th to Monday through November 2 2017.

— VEIL COSMETICS: 25% off site wide (for orders over $30) with code VEIL25 on Friday, November 24, 2017 and Monday, November 27, 2017.

Happy shopping! Do you plan to take advantage of any Black Friday deals?

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    Black Friday wasn’t really a thing here in Germany until last year, and this year it is everywhere. Which is strange, we don’t even celebrate Thanksgiving. But hey, any excuse for discounts!

    I don’t make much of Black Friday, even when Zack was little. The thought of waiting for a store to open just to get a bargain never appealed to me. Now that you can do most of your shopping without leaving your home is cool, but I still don’t have this big need at this time.
    Happy Thanksgiving, even if you don’t celebrate. Enjoy Thursday.

      Hi Jane,

      I usually do a little bit of shopping for Christmas at that time. I generally don’t go crazy though because I still like to go to the mall and take in all the holiday decorations and whatnot.

      I’m almost ready for Thanksgiving! I just did a grocery run and grabbed a roasting pan, some things for corn pudding and a few items for easy meals for us for the next couple days. It was crazy busy! I thought it would be mellow since it was morning but oh boy was I wrong.

    We have already celebrated our Thanksgiving. Now we’re in the madness of the Black Friday week. It never fails. People go to malls at 7 am and count on miracles. I will go tomorrow to the Roots and treat myself to TWO purses 328$ each minus 30% and be extatic. My United Colors of Beneton have just arrived via UPS. And other goodies from the Shopping Channel. I will do my PiYo later and cuddle with Tobby and Tabby – my Russian Blues. Malls are great , but not this week. Happy Thanksgiving Karen and your family ❤

      Hi Madeleine,

      My neighbor used to have the most beautiful Russian Blue; she’d always stop by to snack on Tabs’s catnip. How long have you lived with Tobby and Tabby? Are they siblings?

        They are brothers from the same litter. We adopted them on Valentines Day in 2015.They were kicked out by the original owner in January in like -35’C in deep snow and such. Somebody found them and dropped off at the Humane Society and we got them thru the Pet Smart. My babies <3 They are the sweetest kittens (they are 4 years old) in the World. How can anybody be so cruel and in cold blood get rid off an any animal that way? Especially in such cold! We are in Northern Ontario and winters are no picnics!!!!

          Aww, Madeleine! You are their angel! I hope Tobby is healthy now. It’s really scary seeing a fur baby get sick, because they can’t communicate their needs. I now have a crush on your sweet babies (please don’t tell Tabs).

    Sweet recommendations, Karen and may I say: you look absolutely stunning on this first pic here- not that you don’t always look fab, but this is especially nice!

      Thanks, Sissi. I took that one a while back when I was going through my Beyonce blonde hair phase, LOL!

      Hope you’re having a lovely Wednesday!

    We also don’t celebrate Thanksgiving in Manila…but Black Friday sales are a thing, ever since Forever 21 opened in the Philippines. I’ll be waiting for more sales online though.

    Have an excellent Black Friday. I feel like you’ll be busy – thanks for all the great sale info. I try not to be out and about because it’s way too busy for me, but I do like to get some Christmas shopping done if there are deals to be had. 🙂

      Yay for getting your Christmas shopping done early. I’m hopefully going to get some things crossed off my list!

    Saks has a $75 gift card with a $150 purchase – can use in Beauty – great time to get some really good candles for yourself or a gift. If you have a SA you can call it in today.

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
