The Best Beauty Sales of the Week
As the Strategist’s deals editor, I sift through hundreds of discounts every day. Some of my favorite finds are in the beauty bins: The price drops are impressive, and there’s almost always something from our archives in the mix. And each week, I find the best-of-the-best beauty products on sale across the internet, exclusively for Beauty Brief newsletter subscribers, and present them to you here.

Back in November, beauty writer Tembe Denton-Hurst wrote about replacing her beloved Dieux Instant Angel with CosRx’s ceramide moisturizer. “I like this moisturizer because it ticks all of my boxes: not so expensive that I feel compelled to save it for special occasions, easy to find in retail stores, and nonirritating,” she writes. “This does all that and has a Goldilocks texture — it’s not so heavy that it feels greasy and not so light that it disappears as soon as it’s applied.”

And Strategist beauty columnist Rio Viera-Newton first wrote about this CosRx moisturizer back in 2019. “It’s the thickest, most nourishing moisturizer on the planet for combatting scaly winter skin,” she writes. “I can’t imagine surviving a winter without it.”
