Where can I find the best Black Friday beauty deals?
It’s impossible to know which sites will offer the best Black Friday beauty deals in advance, but some tips can help you find the best offers.
Firstly, keep an eye on prices for products you plan to buy, and check the brand’s website for its regular price.
During the sale, you can track the price history of products on Amazon with tools like CamelCamelCamel by copying and pasting the URL into its search bar. This shows whether you’re getting the lowest price or if Amazon increased it ahead of the sale.
To compare retailers, PriceSpy shows prices from different online stores and includes some price history data. When the sales go live, it's worth using these insights to find the best deals.
Beware of deals that seem too good to be true. Our investigation found that at least two-thirds of cosmetics from online marketplaces are likely to be counterfeits. Make sure you shop online at trusted retailers and avoid third-party sellers on Amazon, eBay and TikTok Shop.
