Black Friday beauty deals - Brilliant savings at Sephora, Boots and more
Black Friday beauty deals may be over, but we're expecting to see even bigger deals in 2024
Black Friday beauty deals never fail to disappoint. From major price cuts on luxury fragrances to rare makeup and hair care savings from cult favourite brands Dyson, Jo Malone, Charlotte Tilbury and more.
Although Black Friday is long gone, our mind is already set for the 2024 holiday sales event. With another year of the best perfume deals, price cuts on w&h's favourite hot-hair tools and discounts on luxe beauty gifts.
Whether you missed out on the huge Dyson Airwrap Black Friday deal or just want to be on top of all the best beauty deals for next year’s holiday sale, you’ve come to the right spot. We’ll be scouting the web for all skincare, haircare, fragrance, and makeup deals in advance of Black Friday.

When do Black Friday beauty deals start?
We found retailers started offering pre-Black Friday deals as early as 29 October, with Kiehl's offering discounts on serums and other skincare and Tarte offering 40% off in their Cyber sale.
More retailers such as Sephora, Charlotte Tilbury, and Liz Earl started offering Black Friday deals a week before the shopping holiday.
Are Black Friday beauty deals better than Cyber Monday?
We found most Black Friday beauty deals to be at the same reduced price during Cyber Monday, but with many of them being everyone's beauty favourites, we noticed they sold out quickly.
Are Black Friday beauty deals better than Christmas?
Many choose to shop the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales in the run-up to Christmas, in order to make the most of discounts on some of the best Christmas gifts for her or the best Christmas gifts for mum.
Although sales often run after Black Friday, and Cyber Monday deals can be as good as Black Friday) it can be tricky to find discounts on coveted items once the shopping period is over. While we can't make any promises, we think the best time to buy your Christmas gifts is Cyber Monday. Plus, you won't need to worry about last-minute present dashes on Christmas Eve, or sold out must-haves.
What Black Friday beauty deals can I expect?
This year's Black Friday beauty deals exceeded our expectations with a rare discount of £80 off the Dyson Airwrap from multiple retailers, such as Argos, Currys, John Lewis, and the brand itself. We also saw many Black Friday perfume deals this year, with a £85 discount on our beauty editor's favourite fragrance, Baccarat Rouge and 20% off the best Chanel perfumes.
When it came to the best makeup and skincare deals, the Glossier Black Friday sale included 25% off everything, making for the perfect beauty stocking filler. You can also expect similar discounts of 30% off at Charlotte Tilbury and Tarte and over 51% off at Liz Earle.
What beauty brands have Black Friday sales?
Almost all top beauty brands run Black Friday and Cyber Monday promotions, although some definitely offer deeper price discounts than others.
Some brands, such as Glossier, rarely offer discounts the rest of the calendar year, however, Black Friday is one of the few times of year to pick up your staple You perfume or Milky Jelly Cleanser at a reduced price.
We also regularly see great savings at Charlotte Tilbury and Tarte, as well as promotions on stockists such as Amazon, Cult Beauty and Space NK.
