The 17 beauty products we’re shopping in the Black Friday sales
Glossier Balm Dotcom lip balm
$24 (was $30) If there were a Spotify Wrapped for the phrases I repeat, “Where’s my lip balm?” would be number one. I can’t leave the house without it, and Glossier’s Balm Dotcom in Strawberry is my go-to. It tastes like summer and keeps my lips nourished, so I’ll be re-stocking for the car, purse and desk.– Maddy Pogue, social media coordinator.
GHD Duet Blowdry hair dryer brush
$476 (was $595) I (manually) blowdry my hair every other day. And while it’s now a habit, I’m thinking it’s time to give at least one arm a rest. This two-in-one tool by GHD promises long-lasting volume with an anti-frizz finish – something my natural curls only dream of. It’s currently 20 per cent off and comes with a complimentary styling oil for a sleek result.– Simone Richardson, shopping editor.
La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5 serum
$31 (was $42) As soon as I saw this on sale, I had to get it. This rich, restorative balm is my number one salve for skin that’s feeling a bit unhappy – whether it’s a breakout, sunburn, dry patch or run-of-the-mill sensitivity. I’ve lost count of how many of these I've bought.– Chynna Santos, deputy branded content editor.
Merit The Minimalist Perfecting complexion stick
$49 (was $61) This year, Merit announced it’s shipping to Aus! So best believe I have multiple items in my cart. Based on multiple Tik Tok reviews I am excited to start with the perfecting complexion stick – plus all purchases come with a signature bag to keep your goodies in.– Evie Baker, photo editor.
Reforme Power lip contour
$59 (was $118) Whether it’s lip liner, lip stain or lip gloss – I am always on the hunt for the latest lip enhancing innovation. Introducing the power lip. A creamy contour product available in two buildable shades that adds fullness and volume. Buy one now and get an extra colour for free.– Evie Baker, photo editor.
Saya Argan body oil
$41 (was $59) I’ve recently been leaning into ancient care rituals like dry brushing – and lustrous body oil is an essential accomplice. Infused with pure argan oil, vitamin E and fatty acids, this blend by Noosa-based skin label Saya looks like it’ll leave my skin feeling soft, supple and glowing.– Simone Richardson, shopping editor.
Ultra Violette Preen Screen spray sunscreen
$41 was($59) Long summer days by the beach? Big yes. The sticky, sandy, creamy film on my hands after reapplying sunscreen on my face? Big no. Ultra Violette’s Preen Screen reapplication mist is the summer beauty product I didn’t know I needed until I really needed it.– Stephanie Vigilante, head of social media.
Naked Sundays SPF50+ Glow body mist
$30 (was $43) I keep a bottle of this stuff in my purse all year round (because: ridiculously pale person in Australia). It’s great for sunscreen top-ups on the go, so I’ll be refreshing my supply before summer hits. And probably chucking in a few tubes of Beauty Screen SPF50 peptide foundation tint, too. I can’t do loads of skincare layering during the warmer months (everything just sweats right off), and Beauty Screen is pretty much the ultimate lazy all-in-one sunscreen-moisturiser-foundation.– Jo Walker, Studio editor.
Merit Beauty Flush balm
$38 (was $48) I’ve seen videos of people gliding on Merit Beauty’s creamy cheek tints all over my Tiktok For You page – and I want to join the glowy skin party, too. Now that there’s 20 per cent off sitewide, I think I will. Easy to blend, these satin finish blushes offer a subtle flushed look and can also be swiped across your lips and eyelids. I’m adding the shade Cheeky, a cool pink, to my cart.– Gitika Garg, assistant editor.
ColorWow One Minute Transformation Cream
$43 (was $50) Morning person? Negative. Naturally frizzy hair? Positive! This is a product I always come back to for the days you wake up late and need to leave the house without looking wild. It’s also great to combat the humidity of the summer heat.– Holly Birdsall, video producer.
Eye of Horus Rose lip liner
$10 (was $32) You know it’s time for a new liner when it’s so blunt that it’s niggling at your lip. I’ve been meaning to try some of the eco-conscious products by Byron Bay label Eye of Horus for a while now, and at a discounted rate of $10 there’s no better time to do it.– Simone Richardson, shopping editor.
Thirsty Turtl Desert Glow gel and Pacific Dusk cream duo
$91 (was $130) I’ve wanted to give this Indigenous-owned skincare brand a go for a while now, and here’s my excuse: 30 per cent off plus a free gift when buying two or more items during BFCM. Desert Glow is formulated for sensitive skin like mine and promises lightweight moisture packed with Aussie botanicals. I reckon I’ll pair it with the redness-fighting Pacific Dusk overnight barrier cream for 24-hour protection.– Jo Walker, studio editor.
Davines Naturaltech Purifying Shampoo
$53.95 I’m a girl with greasy hair who’s prone to dandruff. I won’t fall victim to shame! I love Davines’s approach to sustainable haircare and have been using its products since I was introduced to the brand by my hair salon, Mitch. This shampoo is clarifying and purifying, meaning my scalp is better for it.– Maggie Zhou, fashion editor.
