It’s officially the holiday season, which means Black Friday sales are about to start and Cyber Monday is just around the corner! So many retailers, like Sephora and Ulta, offer amazing Black Friday sales every year…but do you ever think to check the brand's actual websites? A lot of times you can find even better deals! I’ve compiled a list of all of the best Black Friday deals from my favorite skincare brands themselves to help you save some money!
Zitsticka
One of my favorite acne-fighting brands is having a 25% off sitewide sale. Their products are amazing! The downside to their products, is they can be a bit on the pricy side. Luckily, with Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, these dermatologist backed products are a lot more affordable! Some of my favorite products from Zit Sticka include Killa Patches, Press Refresh Face Mask, Silkshake Body Wash, and Megashade Sunscreen.In addition to everything being 25% off, you also get a free gift with purchase when you spend enough money. This would be a perfect gift for anyone who struggles with acne and loves products that are fun to use with cutting edge technology such as micro-darts and graphene.
Peach & Lily
It’s super rare for this brand to be having a sale, which means you better take advantage of this Black Friday deal that gives you 35% off everything on their website. Treat yourself or a loved one to the Glass Skin Refining Serumfor the perfect luminous looking skin. Their KP Bump Boss Microderm Body Scrubis amazing to use in shower or bath and makes your skin baby soft. It’s great for dry skin, eczema-prone skin or anyone that deals with keratosis pilaris. In addition, you can get even more discounts when you purchase their bundle kits.
