Best Black Friday Beauty Deals at a Glance:

Best Beauty Products We’re Shopping Now:

1. Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream

When it comes to cult-favorite beauty products, few have made the kind of impact that the Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream has. Developed by the eponymous world-renowned biomedical scientist, Professor Augustinus Bader, the cream's magic lies in a technology called TFC8—a mixture of amino acids and vitamins—that has been scientifically proven (well, through clinical trials by the brand, at least) to provide nourishment and protection to the skin. One top of that, the cream is also formulated without parabens, sulfates or preservatives, and the company even claims it can support cell turnover for a youthful, glowing complexion.

Sunday Riley Good Genes Lactic Acid Treatment

2. Sunday Riley Good Genes Treatment

The beloved treatment is formulated with five percent lactic acid to slough off dead skin cells, clear your complexion and boost collagen production—which is why multiple PureWow editors, swear by it. "To convince you of Good Genes’ greatness, I could tell you about how it makes my skin look glowier and plumper in a matter of minutes. Or I could tell you about how, over time, it’s evened out my skin tone and made it feel softer than ever," says Sarah Stiefvater, senior editor.

3. Olive & June Mani System

The Mani System includes everything you need to achieve salon-quality nails from home—all neatly packaged in a festive, winter-themed box. Included is a nail clipper, nail file, nail buffer, polish remover, clean-up brush, cuticle serum, topcoat, a polish shade of your choice and a poppy tool (which makes your non-dominant hand so much easier, btw). *Use code PARTY25 to get 25 percent off your order before 11:59pm PST on November 28th.

4. NuFace Mini + Starter Kit

In case you're not already familiar, all of NuFACE's devices use microcurrent technology, aka electrical waves that stimulate facial tissue to help tone the muscles underneath your skin, thereby improving sagging and reducing the appearance of fine lines. The device is available in two sizes, but the mini (shown here) comes in a more compact design that’s ideal if you travel often or don’t want to take up too much countertop space in your bathroom. It features three intensity levels and a five-minute auto-shutoff feature, making it a small but mighty device.

5. Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen SPF 40

Reminder: You still need SPF in the winter. This formula is extremely lightweight and has a satin finish that doesn’t look or feel oily on your skin, making it ideal for wearing underneath makeup. *Use code CYBER22 at checkout to get 20 percent off your order between 11/23 and 11/28.

6. ILIA Beauty Limitless Lash Mascara

Sky-high lashes are easily achievable with this formula. The brush separates the lashes to add length while preventing clumps. But don't just take our word for it. Here's one buyer's glowing review: "If you're looking for fuller, thicker and longer lashes, this product doesn't disappoint. I don't usually wear mascara because it's so hot here (FL) that my makeup doesn't usually last long. This mascara [stayed] in place and didn't irritate my eyes and still looked good at the end of the day." *Use code WONDERLAND to get 20 percent off your order between 11/25 and 11/28 at 11:59 p.m. PST.

7. Ole Henriksen Truth Serum

Skin looking duller than usual? Try this bestselling serum, which features vitamin C and orange and green tea extracts to boost brightness. As our colleague Rachel attests: "After two weeks of use, I’ve definitely noticed my skin tone is evened out and more radiant. Plus, it feels smooth to the touch. My combination skin usually skews more on the oily side, so I was relieved when the silky formula was absorbed almost immediately. It has a light orange scent, which made me hesitant at first because I usually don’t care for scented skin care products, but this didn’t bother me at all.”

8. Versed Dew Point Moisturizing Gel Cream

When you find that your usual moisturizer is a tad too thick, try switching things up with this lightweight gel-cream that's rich in green tea extract and aloe leaf juice for optimal hydration and nourishment. Once it hits the skin, it instantly absorbs and disappears, leaving your face feeling oh-so soft.

*Use code TGIBF20 to get 20 percent off your order and an additional full size tube of the Dew Point moisturizer between 11/25 at 12 a.m. PST through 11/27 at 11:59 p.m. PST.

9. Vegamour Gro More Kit

If you've seen the YouTube videos and progress photos posted online, you know Vegamour has gained a fan following for its hair growth products. Both of these bestsellers are formulated with biotin, folic acid and other powerful ingredients to help you grow longer, healthy hair. It's also worth noting that everything is hormone-free, vegan, cruelty-free and clinically tested.

*Use code 30FRIDAY to get 30 percent off, plus a full size gift between 11/25 and 11/26.

10. Peace Out Skincare Retinol Eye Stick

Peace Out Skincare is known for its high-quality products at low prices and this retinol eye stick is among the brand's top sellers. (Retinol is a vitamin A derivative that’s used to promote cell turnover, which treats an array of skincare concerns like uneven skin tone and texture, dark spots, fine lines and dullness.) You often see retinol in the form of serums or creams, but this stick makes it so that you can just swipe it on and around your eyes, so the whole experience is a lot less messy.

11. T3 AireLuxe Hair Dryer

The AireLuxe offers five heat and three speed settings for a personalized blow dry every time. The sleek dryer also comes with two attachments: the narrow styling concentrator to target specific sections and the wide concentrator for overall prep.

12. Crest 3D Whitestrips Professional Effects

The Crest 3D Whitestrips Professional Effects teeth-whitening kit is designed to give you a brighter smile that lasts a full year (or longer). How does it work? It's actually really simple. The set comes with 44 thin, flexible strips that are coated with a tooth-whitening gel and conform to the shape of your teeth to remove stains below the enamel surface. These strips are made with the same ingredients that dentists use, so they're totally safe.

13. Revlon One-Step Volumizer Plus 2.0

The Revlon One-Step Hair Dryer & Volumizer Hot Air Brush Plus 2.0 is way more than the average blow dryer. This powerful tool combines a charcoal-tipped round brush with serious power, to give your hair instant volume. It also boasts three heat settings (plus, a cool setting) and features a ceramic titanium barrel to reduce damage from styling. This newer, 2.0 version features a smaller, more versatile head size that allows you to style closer to the root (and better perfect your flips, soft waves and curls).

14. L'ange Le Duo 360 Airflow Styler

And if you're looking for something that's a little bit sleeker, the Le Duo might be just the thing for you. Designed to create curls, waves and straighten your hair, it's the MacGyver of styling tools. It's lightweight and ergonomic, so it’s easy to hold and maneuver, and it features adjustable heat settings that range from 280 to 430 degrees Fahrenheit. Plus, it’s built with tiny air vents that cool your hair on contact to keep it from overheating, while also locking in your style (much like the cool shot button on a blow dryer).

15. Mario Badescu Drying Lotion

Finding a pimple is never pleasant, but TikTokers swear by the Mario Badescu Drying Lotion. To use, simply cleanse your skin, apply a small dot of the lotion and leave it on overnight to dry out the dreaded blemish. The drying lotion's secret ingredient is salicylic acid, which is known to aid the skin in shedding dead cells from the top layer and decrease redness and swelling.

16. Merit Beauty Signature Lip Lightweight Lipstick

Despite only being a little over a year old, Merit has quickly become a favorite among makeup minimalists everywhere. (The brand’s “Shade Slick” became an instant bestseller and remains the #1 clean lip gloss at Sephora U.S. and Canada as of writing.) The brand's newest launch is a sheer, but buildable lipstick that has a buttery application and a soft finish thanks to the squalene, raspberry and sunflower seed oil in the formula. You can swipe it in eight shades, but we especially adore “Millennial,” a classic pink that works for any occasion. Get it at 20 percent off starting 11/23, no code necessary.
