Black Friday is days away, but the beauty deals have already started, and you may want to prepare yourself because they’re good. Since I spend all year testing makeup, hair care, and skin-care products so you don’t have to, I know what’s worth buying — and all of my favorites are on sale. There’s a hair mask for healthy frizz-free tresses, skin care to combat winter weather, and a big sale on Dyson.
Basically, whether you’re shopping for yourself or everyone else on your list, there’s something to save on. Read on to shop my picks.
The luxe blow-dryer is finally on sale. Along with cutting drying time in half, it features four heat settings for a salon-worthy blowout or voluminous diffused curls.
Smells good and works even better, this hydrating and repairing leave-in conditioner is up to 25 percent off when you add a few extra products to your cart, I suggest grabbing this scalp-stimulating massager too.
The best-selling scalp serum is a favorite of hairstylists for thinning hair. Along with hyaluronic acid to hydrate and soothe dry, irritated scalps, the Swiss Apple stem cell complex helps thicken and protect hair over time.
Briogeo is a favorite for its sulfate- and silicone-free formulas that nourish all hair types. Since almost everything is on sale, one thing I recommend getting your hands on is the deep-conditioning mask that helps repair dry, damaged hair.
Another favorite serum for thinning hair, Vegamour’s best-seller for reducing shedding and promoting stronger hair is on sale. The blend of ingredients like caffeine and biotin helps stimulate the scalp and strengthen hair.
If you want to get a sleek ponytail, look no further than this wax stick that slicks down every hair. It’s a favorite among Cut editors and a very giftable item. At just under $10, it’ll make the perfect stocking stuffer.
If you’re not sure where to start when it comes to K-beauty, Soko Glam’s sitewide sale is a good place. My pick is this soothing and moisturizing pack of sheet masks infused with ingredients like calendula extract and hyaluronic acid.
If dry winter weather and apartment heaters tend to wreak havoc on your skin, you might have already considered a humidifier. But if, like many New Yorkers, you’re short on space, Hey Dewy’s wireless version is a small yet effective option. The tiny rechargeable device can fit on your desk or nightstand and dispense steady steam for up to eight hours. The code “BFCM25” will get you 25 percent off.
This makeup artist favorite for hydration and priming the skin is always good to grab on sale. It’s a multiuse product that also makes a great moisturizing mask for very dry skin.
Another K-beauty favorite, Innisfree has tons of skin-clearing and soothing products on sale. Start with their broad-spectrum sunscreen that feels just as hydrating as your favorite moisturizers and protects your skin without a white cast.

All of Supergoop!’s top-rated sunscreens are discounted during its sitewide sale. So if you’re not sure where to start, the Unseen Sunscreen is a completely sheer, non-greasy formula that doubles as a primer for your favorite foundation.
Tatcha’s offering 25 percent off sitewide with the code “CYBER23” so you can save on a few favorites like the Dewy Skin Cream and the cult-fave exfoliating enzyme powder that gently polishes and brightens skin.
The Cut Shop–approved sculpting and shaping facial device is on sale and as always I recommend saving a few dollars when adding the viral tool to your routine. The starter kit includes all the skin-firming essentials you need, and with the code “JOY” you can save up to 30 percent off a few other luxe beauty tools and products.
If you want instantly smoother and brighter skin, this viral mask gives you results in minutes (two to three to be exact). The resurfacing mask gently exfoliates with a mix of AHA, BHA, and enzymes. It’s on sale with the code “CYBER20.”
If you’ve been staying up too late shopping for holiday gifts or just browsing TikTok, pick up this beloved eye cream that has brightening vitamin C to help counteract dark circles.
Just as good as the best-selling Bum Bum cream, this oil is a Cut Shop favorite for how well it firms the skin and how good it smells. It has the added bonus of making a great oil for lymphatic massage, plus the irresistible scent has notes of caramel and pistachio.
This moisturizing balm has quickly become one of the brand’s favorite products. With shea butter as the hero ingredient, it nourishes the lips while adding shine and sheer color. It also smells really good.
This moisturizer with a devoted following is on sale. It features a unique blend of ingredients like hyaluronic acid, omega fatty acids, and its TFC8 complex to moisturize and renew skin.
Ulta has new deals rolling out until Saturday. Along with deals on makeup and skin care, skin care tools are also on sale. Shop NuFace, Foreo, and even this easy-to-use LED wand from Solawave. It’s perfect for spot-treating acne and facial massages.
With notes of sandalwood, musk, bergamot, and jasmine, this has quickly become one of Phlur’s best-selling scents. The brand is offering 20 percent off sitewide right now, so you can grab every version of it. I recommend starting with the affordable (and giftable) body lotion.
The Ultra Repair Cream is just what you need for dry, irritated skin. This moisturizer features key ingredients like colloidal oatmeal and allantoin to soothe eczema and dry skin. With the code CYBERSZN, you can save on the jumbo size or take advantage of the BOGO deals.
If you can’t get your hands on the sold-out Woodphoria eau de parfum, the room sprays are a good option for filling your space with these scents or gifting to a loved one. The best-selling Cashmere Kush is exactly what it sounds like, featuring soft notes of cashmere wood, herbs, and musk.
Embrace fall and winter scents with this unisex favorite from Margiela. By the Fireplace has notes of vanilla, wood, and clove (it smells just as good as the Cut Shop–approved candle of the same name). Since the whole site is 20 percent off, you can grab a candle or two as well.
It’s always a good time to grab one of these super-nourishing and glossy lip-treatment oils. Since launching and going viral, the multitasking lip oil is now available in five additional colors that are just as good as the original — they’re on sale, so I suggest grabbing a few or purchasing this trio.
If you want eyeliner that can be applied to the waterline without irritating it, Ilia’s gel liner is a good option. Available in two colors, the liner glides on effortlessly so you can even create a smoky cat eye. Ilia has 20 percent off sitewide so you can stock up on a full face of clean beauty faves.
If you’ve ever wondered what the secret was to flawless runway skin, it’s Pat McGrath Labs. The makeup artist’s top-rated beauty line is responsible for some of the most highly rated (and usually pricey) beauty products. Luckily, you can get them on sale. The Sublime Perfection Foundation gives you just that and then some, with a buildable, natural finish, and an inclusive shade range.
This creamy blurring bronzer is all you need to warm up your complexion as the temps drop. The foolproof formula is easy to build up and even easier to blend, leaving you with a glowy, bronzy finish.
Charlotte Tilbury is making it very easy to create your holiday beauty looks with makeup and skin-care bundles. You can prep your skin with moisturizer sets or get a flawless base with concealer and foundation sets. I recommend the brand’s lip trio, which includes its best-selling lip liner, lipstick, and gloss.
