The Best Black Friday Beauty Sales to Shop

When it comes to the best black friday beauty sales to shop, I always turn to my favorites and use it as a time to stock up on the face products I already use in my morning and evening skincare routine. Then if there are other beauty products I’ve had on my wishlist, I’ll use it as an opportunity to try a few new-to-me items at a discounted price!

BIOSSANCE BLACK FRIDAY SALE

I’m blown away by the gift with purchase this year–over $170 worth of free product! Think minis of their best-selling products perfect for travel or testing out new things. Basically, all things you’d *actually* want from their A-list.

When I placed an order earlier this year I got this mesh bag, perfect for throwing into a larger bag to keep things wrangled, and this spa headband which is great for the nights I’m doing a face mask or don’t want to mess up my hair…all part of the gift with purchase in the first photo.

I went way back into my order history to see when I made my first purchase and it was in February of 2021! So many great products have been in my rotation ever since.

The products are really high quality and I feel good about using them on my skin, plus everything is incredibly effective, and I’ve found it hard to find safe skincare for my sensitive skin that checks all those boxes.

First up is the squalane + glycolic renewal mask, something I can’t live without now. It’s like a mini facial every single time–at a fraction of the cost! There have been several times I’ve done the mask before bed and then rolled out of bed to meet someone first thing the next morning and they’ve commented on the way my skin looks! Worth every penny.

I use the squalane + lactic acid resurfacing night serum several nights a week after I wash my face and then layer on my favorite moisturizer. I make sure not to use the above mask and the resurfacing serum in the same night as it would be too much for my skin.

I was never big into face oil until I met the squalane + vitamin C rose oil. I put this on top of my moisturizer and give my skin plenty of time to absorb the product before crawling into the sheets. I like to use this oil when I gua sha with my Wilding tool in the morning, too! This combo always leaves my skin looking extra glowy and feels so luxurious. You can shop more gua sha tools below.

HIGH ON MY LIST OF PRODUCTS TO TRY

Squalane + caffeine toning body cream. I’m really trying to clean up the beauty products I use and there’s a specific body lotion I’ve been using religiously for years now but I’ve noticed I’ve become really sensitive to certain scents and know that the product isn’t something I need to be slathering all over the biggest organ of my body, especially given everything I’ve been going through with my health.

The squalane + omega hand repair cream. Super curious how this compares to the hand salve I can’t live without, which I’ll get into more below!

Squalane + copper peptide rapid plumping serum. Plumping sounds like something my dull winter skin could use more of!

Don’t miss their holiday gift sets either! A few of my top picks:

KIEHL’S BLACK FRIDAY SALE

Another one of the beauty brands in my daily routine is Kiehl’s and they’re offering 30% off sitewide.

Going into my seventh Chicago winter and I still swear by this hand salve. I buy the larger bottles in bulk anytime there’s a sale and grab a few of the smaller sizes to throw in all of my bags so I’m never without. Trust me, nothing else compares! Unless, of course, the aforementioned hand repair cream from Biossance changes things for me.

The Kiehl’s ultra facial cleanser has been my go-to for years. Pretty straightforward product…lathers nicely and doesn’t dry me out.

I love the ferulic brew antioxidant facial treatment with lactic acid. It’s super gentle and leaves my skin feeling extra clean. I switch things up depending what my skin needs and add this in before my moisturizer from time to time.

I was gifted the micro-dose anti-aging retinol serum with ceramides and peptide last summer and up until then, I hadn’t found a retinol I could actually stick with. Other retinols were too harsh for my skin and I found myself waking up so dry despite slathering on moisturizer before bed. Given that this is a micro-dose retinol product, I’m able to use it at night or in the morning without any bad side effects, I just make sure to follow-up with SPF after if I do it in the am (which I usually do given the ingredients in my nighttime skincare routine).

When I do my gua sha routine in the evening, I use the midnight recovery face oil (also sold in this gift set duo).

This calendula petal-infused calming mask is super calming and great for winter skin that’s been out in the bitter cold and wind or summer skin that caught a little too much sun. I like to keep it in the refrigerator in the warmer months!

Ultra facial overnight hydrating face mask. A mask made with squalane, an ingredient my skin really loves!

I will admit, I don’t use eye cream every night, but when I do remember to reach for it, it’s always the super multi-corrective anti-aging eye cream.

The Kiehl’s gift sets are really well-done and are a great way to test out new products if you’re new to the brand or if you’re looking to gift to others. My top pick would be their midnight recovery routine gift bundle. I’m obsessed with the sleep mask in it! So cute.
