The Best Beauty Sales of the Week
As a beauty writer, I spend lots of time in the beauty sales bin, sifting through over a dozen sites to surface actually good deals. This week, I found a range of products that are cheaper than usual, exclusively for Beauty Brief subscribers, most of which we’ve written about before: from repairing shampoo that’s good for high-porosity hair types to one of my favorite lip glosses from sensitive skin-friendly skin-care brand Tower28.

For nourishing high-porosity hair types and otherwise damaged hair, this shampoo from Maria Nila contains algae extract and smells of vanilla, rose, and jasmine. Currently, it’s 20 percent off at Nordstrom, a solid deal for a rarely on-sale brand.

Shopbop’s sale bin is always a delight because it’s truly random but always filled with some surprising gems. Case in point: My favorite silk scrunchies, also named our best hair ties overall because they reduce breakage and don’t strip hair of moisture, are currently 30 percent off.

We’ve previously written about the eye-cream version of this potent vitamin C, which writer Dominique Pariso says actually improves her genetic dark circles. This serum can be used all over and contains green tea for an extra boost of protection from environmental skin stressors.

The Elemis cleansing balm is a longtime Strategist favorite because it manages to be both moisturizing and effective. Currently on sale from that same Pro-Collagen line: the Marine Cream moisturizer, which has anti-wrinkle properties and a lightweight, gel-cream texture.

The waterproof version of Kathy Hilton’s favorite mascara, which she says “adds volume and doesn’t flake,” is currently on sale. Of all Lancôme’s mascara offerings, it’s the most volumizing and offers up to 24 hours of hold.

In a previous Beauty Brief, I mentioned this felt-tipped liner from Flower Beauty, noting its cool-brown shade and precise line. It remains a go-to. In a recent wear test, I wore it on a hike and am happy to note that it didn’t smudge or run despite my sweating.

Dermstore is currently running an impressive sale — up to 40 percent off. Included in that is this hair mask from Christophe Robin, which our beauty columnist Rio Viera-Newton says is the best at-home toner she’s tried. “The Christophe Robin mask is effective both immediately and long-term — after using it, I noticed a change in the softness, shine, and texture of my hair for weeks,” she says. Right now, it’s 60 percent off, a very good deal.

This creamy bronzer from Tower28 can be applied with your hands and gives skin a healthy-looking glow.

Also on sale from Tower28: the beloved Lip Jelly, which is one of the best lip glosses I’ve tried. It isn’t sticky but still manages to be super-shiny, and it’s a near-dupe for the eye-wateringly expensive Byredo Lipstick Vinyl. It’s available in two shades: fire, which is a sheer orange, and spicy, a sheer red.
