It's your last chance to shop the Cyber Monday 2023 deals, and we’ve been busy rounding up the very best beauty deals for you. We know that navigating the sales can be quite a hassle, which is why we’ve done all the hard work for you.
As beauty editors, we’ve tried pretty much every beauty product out there, so we’re pretty well placed when it comes to recommending the best beauty buys.
Impressive discounts are everywhere to be found right now - from 25% off Cult Beauty to up to 50% discounts at Lookfantastic, we’re spoiled for choice when it comes to discounted beauty products.
But that doesn’t mean you have to go wild! It’s easy to be misled by seemingly great deals, and the last thing we’d want is for you to overspend on products that aren’t worth the hype or (even worse) you don’t actually need.

Top deal picks from the Marie Claire beauty editors
Hi, I'm Valeza, Junior Shopping Editor here at Marie Claire UK and I'll be kicking off the Black Friday beauty deals.
As you can imagine, my job involves a lot of trialling beauty products as well as scrolling through the best ones online, and when I can find them at a discounted price, well that's even better.
Enter: Black Friday, AKA the biggest shopping event of the year where there are some amazing savings to be had across almost all of the best beauty brands, from Jo Malone to Dyson (yes that's right, they currently have an extra 40% off selected hair tools on eBay).
So I'm starting this live article with some of the best deals I've found while browsing the sales. Happy shopping.
Jo Malone's highly-coveted fragrances are never usually on sale, but we've found this brilliant deal on AllBeauty for Black Friday. Some perfumes are even under £50! Jo Malone is a real crowd pleaser, so it goes without saying that these would make brilliant Christmas gifts.
Classic scents like Lime Basil & Mandarin (was £118 now £105.95) are included in the sale, or for a more seasonal scent might we suggest Mandarin & Cardamon was £118 now £99.95? Shop them both below.
It's nearly the end of November, which means it's the perfect time to stock up on your beauty advent calendars - especially as most of the best styles are currently on sale for Black Friday.
My top pick? Net-a-Porter's offering, which was named the best value-for-money beauty advent calendar even before the extra 15% Black Friday discount. Including some truly stunning brands like Charlotte Tilbury, Anissa Kermiche and Dr Barbara Sturm, it's worth £1,332 but is currently only £192.50. Pretty impressive, right?
Executive Beauty Editor, Shannon Lawlor here ready to take over reporting on today's biggest Black Friday beauty deals. I have been hunched over my laptop like a croissant since 6am this morning, scouring the web for the best deals.
I don't make it a secret that I'm not a huge fan of Black Friday—I'm all about making sure people are shopping smart for their beauty products, instead of buying rubbish ones that don't work just because they're on deal. (You'll have to pardon my brutal honesty, I'm somewhat notorious for it.) And, surprisingly, today I have seen a fair few that I'm actually willing to recommend.
For starters, as an editor with a particular penchant for fragrance, I'm happy to report there are quite a few Black Friday perfume deals that I think are seriously impressive. I want to give a particular shoutout to Allbeauty's Black Friday Jo Malone deals (I'm stocking up on Meghan Markle's favourite, Wild Bluebell) and the number of retailers who are making Dior's iconic Miss Dior that bit more affordable.
There's also a handful of other deals across skincare, hair and make-up I think are actually worth it. So stay tuned for my live updates, coming right up...
I know, I know—Augustinus Bader is grotesquely expensive. However, as someone who has tried all of the best moisturisers out there, you'll just have to believe me when I say the brand's cult The Rich Cream really is one of the best around. Is it worth it's £100+ price tag? Only if you can afford to drop £140 on a 30ml moisturiser without batting an eyelid.
The excellent news today, however, is that Sephora has slashed its prices on Augustinus Bader by up to 30%. That means, if you're already a fan, you can get a 30ml version of The Rich Cream for less than £100.
My top tip? If you've been waiting to try out the brand but don't know if its products are for you, you can currently get 15ml versions of The Rich Cream and The Cream for £58.80. While I wouldn't usually condone buying smaller versions of things, for environmental reasons, in this case I think it's a pretty good idea (and I can assure you they last longer than you'd think).
I take great pride in my brows. I don't pluck, wax or thread—I let them grow free and wild. The issue with this is that my brows are very dark (almost black), so they require daily styling in order for my look to appear intentional. I have said it once and I'll say it again—Refy's Brow Tint is the best brow gel I have ever used. It keeps my brows in place all day, and the very impressive comb gets right to the base of each strand for optimum lift.
I'm taking great advantage of Refy's site-wide 20% off Black Friday deal today by ordering three of these—they will absolutely last me another 12 months until 2024's Black Friday rolls around.
£70 off Dr Dennis Gross LED Face Mask
I'm a major lover of LED face masks to keep my skin clear, glowing and generally healthy looking. And it seems I'm not alone—one of my most asked questions as a beauty editor is what LED face mask can you recommend? Plus, loads of celebrities (from Victoria Beckham to Salma Hayek) also swear by the high-tech treatment.
The bad thing? They're extortionately expensive.
If, however, you've been after an LED mask for a while, have saved up and have just been waiting for the right time to strike in the form of an LED mask Black Friday deal, may I divert your attention to the Cult Beauty deal on Dr Dennis Gross's iconic LED mask. Previously £465, today's price showcases a £70 reduction, with a Black Friday offer of £395. It is, by far, one of my favourite LED face masks out there, in comfort, design and results.
While I typically recommend saving Black Friday beauty purchases for high-ticket items where savings are much greater, I can't not talk about The Body Shop—who are doing 25% off the whole site with code BLACKFRIDAY.
Anyone who knows me will tell you this cleansing butter is my Roman Empire. I think about it all day, every day. If you're still using make-up wipes (gross) or micellar water to remove your make-up, I am willing to bet my house on the fact your skin will look so much better off for using The Body Shop Camomile Sumptuous Makeup Cleansing Butter instead. Just massage it into dry skin and let it melt all of the day's make-up and dirt away, before wiping off with a wet face cloth.
Everyone I've ever recommended it to is now considered a convert—I've even had people message me on Instagram thanking me for the intro.
Hi! I'm Producer, Sofia Piza here this afternoon ready to take you through the best beauty sales so far. As beauty-obsessed writer, you can naturally assume that I have spent quite some time this AM scouring the internet for the best sales.
When it comes to shopping, I'm a sucker for a good deal that I know will be worth the investment. From some of my absolute favourites, Sol de Janeiro and Refy's Brow Sculpt, this Black Friday is truly not disappointing.
Here are some of my favourite beauty deals so far.
50% off on selected products at Foreo
As someone that struggles with the occasional hormonal breakout, I value my salicylic acid cleanser and cleansing routine massively. This ritual is a non-negotiable part of my day which includes my beloved Foreo Luna 3 device.
A popular gadget here at MC UK, this product has really helped effectively cleanse my skin and work out pore congestion. And excitingly, the Luna 3 doesn't stop there. It also holds three guided massage programmes - eye, neck or all-over contouring - to target acupressure points
This Black Friday, Foreo is offering a whopping 50% off their gadgets. With the Luna 3 being reduced an incredible 52%. Previously £209, today's price lies at £99. Meaning you can now save £110 on this velvety soft device.
It is, by far, one of my favourite deals this Black Friday.
It wouldn't be a Black Friday sale without thinking of another great retailer, Space NK. Which is currently holding up to 25% off site wide.
As recommended by our Executive Beauty Editor, Shannon Lawlor, this time of year is a great opportunity to invest on quality skin care that is often on the pricier side. For me, this means scouring the internet for my favourite beauty brand's deals. One of them being a cult-favourite French brand, Caudalie.
These are my top picks that I have previously tested, loved, and fully recommend.
If I could have one pet peeve it would be the feeling of dry lips. So much so that you will find me with a lip balm, gloss, or lipstick in my hand 99% of the time.
Lately, I've been obsessing over the Kosas Wet Lip Oil Plumping Treatment Gloss and can vouch that I have mine sitting firmly on my desk as we speak. Before I do a quick touch up, I'll let you know why this gloss has been doing it for me plus how you can get it this Black Friday at a discounted price.
This product is a hybrid lip treatment and gloss packed with active ingredients like hyaluronic acid and primrose oil to protect and plump your pout. Currently, you can find this gloss in Sephora for up to 27% off with it costing £14.60 in comparison to its original £20.
Now that's a deal worth investing on.
Good morning, everyone. It's Executive Beauty Editor Shannon here, reporting for Black Friday beauty deal duty. I hope everyone had a stress-free, savings-filled Black Friday.
If you missed my last post, know this about me: I don't condone buying beauty products (or anything for that matter) just because they're on deal. I'm frugal by nature. The reason? I hate having things in my surroundings that I'm not going to use. So here's another reminder to please only buy things you know you're really going to get the use out of this weekend. Black Friday and Cyber Weekend is not a time to justify your purchases with 'girl maths' (a saying I resent, by the way). If you've had your eye on something all year that you just know you're going to get the use out of, however, now is the time to purchase.
And with that being said, I'm here this morning to ensure you're not buying rubbish products that aren't worth your time, energy or money and are instead investing in things that I know are worth their weight in gold.
Two deals from yesterday that I'd really like to add to your radar this morning are Lookfantastic's incredible savings on Sol de Janeiro's iconic perfume mists—trust me when I say they are the single most affordable way to smell expensive. And I also think it's worthwhile taking a look at some of the Black Friday spa deals our team has rounded up—spa breaks are expensive, and there are some savings to be made this weekend.
I'll be back with any other beauty deals I spot that I think are really worth it throughout the morning.
I'll admit that even I, as a beauty editor, have found the Lookfantastic website overwhelming this Black Friday. There are heaps of amazing discounts with up to 50% off. But every time you spot something that makes you excited, it's important to take a breath, centre yourself and ask if you really need it/the purchase makes sense.
Although 30% off Olaplex is, without question, an amazing deal, I have a shelf full of Olaplex products that I'm yet to get through—so I don't need to stock up on anything.
Two things I am adding to my basket though is the cult Color Wow Dream Coat Supernatural Spray and the Tom Ford Ombre Leather Eau de Parfum. The former for myself, the latter as a Christmas present for my dad.
Chantecaille is one of my favourite luxury beauty brands, and the site currently has 25% off everything with code CYBER.
The first thing I'm adding to basket is the Cheek Gelée in shade Lively. I use it every single day to give my cheeks a lived-in glow that brightens up my entire complexion. Seriously, even on no-make-up days I'll be sure to pat a tiny bit of this apricot-toned blush into the apples of my cheeks to make it look I'm more awake and alive than I really am. It's a regular backstage at Fashion Week and I know countless make-up artists who lean on this product daily—it's a total unsung hero.
Cult Beauty 25% off *almost * everything
I'm a huge fan of Cult Beauty's offering—the retailer stocks some of the most impressive beauty brands out there. This weekend, there's 25% off almost everything on site.
The two things I'm absolutely stocking up on? Firstly, Hourglass's Phantom Volumising Glossy Balm, which is by far my most loved lip product (and I'm out of my go-to shade, Sense 110). Secondly, Aesop Reverence Hand Wash, which is only £23.25, so I intend to buy two—one for the bathroom, one for the kitchen.
Hello - Valeza, MCUK's Junior Shopping Editor here, taking over from Shannon to bring you the best Black Friday beauty deals this Saturday afternoon.
While scrolling through the sales (and while we're at it - don't forget to check out our general BF sales live roundup) I can't help but think that the beauty sales are particularly strong this year.
So whether your skincare cabinet is looking somewhat depleted or you're looking for something new to switch up your makeup routine, it's worth checking out these deals to save some money while you're at it. Happy scrolling.
£30 off Bellissima Air Wonder 8 in 1 Hot Air Styler
It's no secret that team MCUK have dubbed Bellissima's Air Wonder 8 in 1 Hot Air Styler one of the best Dyson Airwrap alternatives ever, so I simply had to let you know that you can currently save £30 on it on the brand's website.
I own the Air Wonder hot brush myself and am so impressed with how much you get for your money - even before the BF discount. It has eight attachments which provide varying levels of curl and bounce depending on your personal preference.
I've tried a number of hot brushes in my time, and this one is by far the most lightweight, so if you're sick of achy arms every time you want an at-home blow dry, I'd suggest trying this tool out for yourself.
There's a great discount on Skin Gym products at Boots, and they have some exciting new releases to try - including travel-friendly serum sticks and quick-to-use serum mists.
I've tried (and loved) the deals below...
Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask | £13.54 at Lookfantastic (was £19)
I use this Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask every. Single. Night. I only need a tiny amount to keep my lips hydrated till the next morning, so I've barely made a dent in it despite having owned it for over a year.
I'm incredibly fussy when it comes to the products I use overnight - from pyjamas to skincare, if it irritates me, I just won't get to sleep. This lip mask strikes the perfect balance between nourishing and lightweight, and doesn't feel at all oily or heavy on my lips (a pet peeve).
If you've yet to try the social media-viral product, now's your chance seeing as it's 25% off at Lookfantastic - and you can take an extra 5% off with the code EXTRA. The price above includes the extra discount.
up to 30% off Charlotte Tilbury
Yes, you read that right. If you're a fan of Charlotte Tilbury then this is a great time to stock up on your most-used products.
I use the Pillow Talk lip liner and Matte Revolution lipstick pretty much every day, so you know I'm adding a few of each to my basket. Other products included in the Black Friday sale are: the best-selling Magic Cream, the Hollywood Flawless Filter Foundation, the Pillow Talk Push Up Lashes! mascara (can you tell I'm a fan of the range?) and more.
Simply add the code MAGIC20 to receive 20% off on all orders, take 25% off if you spend £100 and use the code MAGIC25, or take 30% off if you spend £150 and use the code MAGIC30. Shop my top picks below.
Eve Lom Cleanser | £63.18 at Lookfantastic (was £95)
Eve Lom's iconic cleanser was the first cleansing balm I truly fell in love with. It melts away all my makeup with ease, and the soothing scent always makes me feel like I'm in a luxury spa.
It's currently 30% off at Lookfantastic and (you know the drill by now) don't forget to take an extra 5% off with the code EXTRA.
Naturium The Glowing Body Kit | £9 at Space NK (was £12)
Does your skin feel raw and tight the moment you step out of the shower? Same. And the sudden burst of bitterly cold weather we've been having hasn't exactly been helping. Enter: the Glowing Body Kit from Naturium.
It includes a multi-oil hydrating body wash and bio-lipid restoring body lotion to make sure your skin stays hydrated at every stage of your shower process.
At under a tenner it's a complete bargain right now thanks to the 25% discount. It would also make a great Christmas gift or Secret Santa if you're short on inspiration.
Check out the rest of the Space NK Black Friday sale for more discounted beauty buys at up to 25% off.
79% off The Body Shop Himalayan Charcoal Skin Clarifying Night Peel | £5 (was £24)
There's nothing I love more than getting a great discount on a product I already use and love, which is why I was so excited to see that The Body Shop's Himalayan Charcoal Skin Clarifying Night Peel was 79% off - yes you read that right. It's now only £5 *adds to basket*.
I smooth a few drops over my face before bed and wake up to smooth, brightened skin. I'm stocking up on a new bottle and am buying one for my friend (who loves The Body Shop's products) as a Christmas gift too.
Morning and happy Sunday! Valeza, Junior Shopping Editor here to bring you all the best beauty deals to round off Black Friday Weekend. We have some great deals going into Cyber Monday too - so make sure you keep checking back in over the next couple of days!
Have you checked out our roundup of Sol de Janeiro deals? They're pretty epic - along with Lookfantastic's entire Black Friday deals page, TBH.
From Augustinus Bader to Jo Malone and even Huda Beauty, the deals are coming in thick and fast, but that doesn't mean you should be spending willy nilly.
We're determined to show you the best beauty products to invest in, based on products we either already use and love or are planning on buying ourselves. So without further ado - here are the best beauty deals I found while scouring the web today.
Liberty | up to 20% off beauty
Shopping from Liberty's Beauty Hall is a rite of passage for any beauty lover, and it doesn't usually offer discounts on its carefully-curated edit of luxury products (they're so highly coveted already, you see).
But Black Friday weekend is the one exception, and you can currently get up to 20% off the likes of Augustinus Bader, La Mer, Westman Atelier and more. Find my recommendations below...
MAC Teddy Eye Kohl | £13.88 (was £18.50)
MAC's Teddy Eye Kohl is one of my go-to everyday makeup products - I love to smudge a little in above my lashes to give them more definition while still looking natural.
I'm running low so will be buying it while it's 25% off on the MAC website - they also have 25% off foundation, lipstick, mascara and skincare too, just FYI.
Glossier | at least 25% off everything
Glossier has 25% off everything in its Black Friday sale. The brand hardly ever has discounts, so this is sort of a big deal. And better yet - if you spend £100 or more you'll get 30% off your entire order.
I don't know about you, but some of my most-used products are from Glossier, including their Cloud Paint, Milky Jelly cleanser and Balm.com, so I'll be stocking up.
23% off The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 | £6.08 (was £7.90)
The Ordinary has 23% off sitewide for Slowvember, encouraging conscious consumption during Black Friday month. Included is the bestselling hyaluronic acid serum, which my skin absolutely drinks up. Layer this gentle product with other serums to boost your skin's hydration levels.
The Ordinary keep their costs low year-round, so the extra 23% off is just a bonus really. It's the perfect time to stock up if, like me, you're a fan of their single-ingredient approach to skincare. A sensitive skin girlie's dream.
Good morning, and happy Cyber Monday! Valeza here, taking you through the final stretch of Cyber Monday deals.
I've scrolled through the sales with a shopping editor's eye to find you the best beauty deals I'm either planning on buying myself or already own and would genuinely recommend.
It's the final day of the biggest shopping event of the year, and so it's your last chance to check out our top beauty sale picks. If you didn't get to shop the deals over Black Friday and through the weekend, it's the perfect time to save on your beauty wish list - from stocking up on your go-to products to finally snapping up that luxury skincare piece you've had your eye on for ages.
20% off Sol de Janeiro at Lookfantastic plus an extra 10% off
The Sol de Janeiro products on Lookfantastic have been selling like crazy - and it's no wonder. Nourishing, exfoliating, and gorgeously scented products that all have a rare double discount applied? Sign me up.
Lookfantastic has up to 50% off sitewide, and you can take an extra 10% off all discounted items with the code EXTRA10.
I own and love the Brazilian Bum Bum Cream and Brazilian Crush Cheirosa 62 Perfume Mist already, so you can bet I'm stocking up.
20% off Tarte Shape Tape Contour Concealer | £21.60 at Sephora (was £27)
Tarte's Shape Tape is my go-to everyday concealer. It's incredibly high coverage, so a tiny amount under each eye goes a long way. It sets to a matte, natural-looking finish and doesn't crease at all on me throughout the day.
Sephora has up to 50% off sitewide for Cyber Monday, so if you're keen to stock up on your go-to make-up and skincare essentials, now's the perfect time.
ILIA | 20% off and Gift with Purchase
I've adored every product I've tried from ILIA, not only is the packing super chic but the formulas are incredible too. I use the Limitless Lash mascara every day, so I'll definitely be grabbing a new one now that there's 20% off on the entire website.
There's also a free gift with purchase which includes the Liquid Powder Eye Tint in Mythic or Sheen AND a mini version of my favourite mascara.
Perricone MD Morning & Evening Regimen | £89.10 at Lookfantastic (worth £452)
I'm struggling to believe the incredible £362.90 saving on this decadent skincare set from Perricone MD. It's already reduced by £353 but when you add Lookfantastic's current extra 10% saving on top with the code EXTRA10, it's an absolute steal!
The set includes the Vitamin C Ester Daily Brightening & Exfoliating Peel, Vitamin C Ester CCC + Ferulic Brightening Under-Eye Cream, Neuropeptide Firming Moisturiser and Multi-Action Overnight Intensive Firming Mask. Just to put things into perspective, the moisturiser alone is worth £241, so you really are making a huge saving.
Although we've only been blessed with Sephora's presence for just over a year in the UK, I couldn't imagine life without it as a beauty lover. There is a huge range of brands exclusive to the brand in the UK, and there's currently up to 50% off in the Cyber Monday sale.
Save on big name brands like Laura Mercier, e.l.f., Dior, Elemis and more - shop my top picks below...
Real Techniques Everyday Essentials, was £20.99 now £12.26 | Lookfantastic
Real Techniques are known for their high-quality but affordable brushes, and in the Cyber Monday sale, they are the lowest price I've ever seen. The Everyday Essentials set is worth £35, including their cult Miracle Complexion Sponge, four face brushes for foundation, blush, and highlight and a smaller crease brush for eye contouring.
Lookfantastic is offering a double discount today, making its sale items even cheaper than they were on Black Friday with the code EXTRA10. When you use the code, the essential set is only £12.26, making each piece less than £2.50. I've used this set religiously for years, so I'm buying one for myself and one for festive gifting.
20% off beauty at Marks & Spencer
In case you missed it, M&S has some of the best beauty brands on their site as well as their own skincare line, Fresh Elements. From Living Proof hair heroes to Clinique skincare and affordable fragrances, M&S have 20% off selected items for Cyber Monday. Here's what I'm adding to basket...
