Our Editors’ Guide to Shopping Amazon’s Holiday Beauty Event

As a seasoned beauty lover and shopper, fall is one of my favorite times to restock my beauty stash. Between new launches, holiday gift sets, and seasonal deals, I do much of my beauty shopping this time of year. From now through November 1, Amazon’s annual Holiday Beauty Event is offering discounts on editor-loved beauty brands—and some are even better than those we saw during Prime Big Deal Days.

Shop Amazon’s Holiday Beauty Event deals

Though the event runs for two weeks, some deals are available for just 48 hours, so it’s worth moving quickly when you spot something you want. To make your search easier, ELLE editors rounded up the deals worth shopping, including tried-and-true favorites and beauty buys we’d be happy to give (or keep for ourselves). Our favorite deals include 25 percent off Dyson hair tool bundles, 30 percent off Charlotte Tilbury makeup, and even gift sets marked down by up to 45 percent.

As temperatures drop, your skin could probably use some extra hydration. Amazon’s Holiday Beauty Event has plenty of gentle cleansers, including our favorite Medicube PDRN Overnight Gel Masks. Plus, nourishing creams that help restore a soft, plump look even in the driest season of the year. Even better, Medicube’s new Booster Pro X2 is nearly 30 percent off, and already ranks among our favorite skin care devices.

Right now, select Charlotte Tilbury bestsellers are 30 percent off, making this a good time to shop iconic Pillow Talk shades ahead of holiday parties and events. The Urban Decay Face Bond Foundation is one of my go-to products; its long-wearing, self-setting formula feels weightless on the skin, and it’s one of the few complexion products that caters to both neutral and olive undertones. Plenty of our other tried-and-true makeup favorites are on sale, too, from Laura Mercier to Lancôme.

Plenty of hair tools are on sale right now, but the most impressive deal I spotted is 60 percent off Chi’s Flat Iron, an old reliable that truly stands the test of time (I’ve had mine for eight years). Associate beauty commerce writer Emma Aerin Becker loves her Wavytalk Blowout Boost Thermal Brush, which ranks among our favorite thermal brushes. “The brush not only smooths, but curls my strands in just a few passes, easily emulating a salon-style blowout,” she says. You can also stock up on hair-care essentials from Moroccanoil, Amika, Bumble and Bumble, and more, with select products up to 30 percent off.

While summer may be over, your vacation glow doesn’t have to be. Nuxe’s Huile Prodigieuse Shimmer Body Oil helps keep skin looking radiant year-round. “The lightweight dry oil absorbs in seconds, leaving my skin radiant for hours without ever feeling sticky,” says shopping editor Lauren Gruber. And for dry, rough winter skin, stock up your nourishing body-care routine with deals on Kiehl’s Creme de Corps Whipped Body Butter and First Aid Beauty’s KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub. Fragrances like the floral-forward Burberry London or the musky warmth of Clean Classic Skin are also marked down during the sale.

It may seem a little early to be shopping for holiday gifts, but plenty of beauty gift sets are on sale right now, so you might as well get a head start. Biodance, Abib, and Rejuran have some of their most-loved skin care products on sale in gift sets right now. You’ll also find Laneige’s beloved lip mask and balm sets, plus luxurious body care from Sol de Janeiro.
