Cyber Monday is here. To find the best deals in every category, follow all of our Cyber Monday coverage.
Even if you missed out on Sephora’s biannual sales event last month, the deals in the Cyber Monday sale are very good. As a beauty writer who has covered the sale for three years now, I know this is the time to replenish empties, try something you saw on TikTok, or stock up on gifts. To help you get the best deals, I sifted through pages of products and curated a list of my holy grails, things we’ve written about before, and wish-list items I’ve been eyeing.
One thing about Sephora’s Cyber Week sale is that the deals are different day-to-day — brands run the gamut, from Fresh and Fenty to Tarte and Youth to the People — so be sure you’re checking in on this article. Cyber Monday is coming to a close, so if you’re eyeing something, don’t dillydally. That also means I’m done updating this article, so stock and prices may change. For even more discounts and holiday-shopping updates (beauty and otherwise), check out the rest of our Cyber Monday stories and gift-guide coverage.
Update on December 2: Updated prices and checked stock for all products; new products added.
Deals I Personally Think Are the Best
Sephora takes off 30 percent from different brands each day, and today’s companies are Peter Thomas Roth and Youth To The People. That means some quenching eye patches and our favorite oily skin cleanser are now under $30. Elsewhere, I found really excellent reductions on three Strategist staples: a First Aid Beauty moisturizer, a Clinique cleansing balm, and a value pack of Rio’s favorite Living Proof dry shampoo.
