No joke—three of my favorite things in the entire world are beauty products, sales, and ordering things on Amazon. So naturally, Amazon Prime Day (which starts today!) is like my version of Christmas, Hanukkah, and my birthday wrapped into one two-day extravaganza.
For anyone who is slightly less bedazzled by Amazon than I am and wondering what the heck I’m talking about, Prime Day is 48 hours'(July 12-13) worth of deals on items all across the site. You can expect discounts on sneakers, fitness equipment, top-rated cookware and much more. Considering Amazon literally has everything you could ever possibly need (and a whole lot of stuff you definitely don’t need, but will still probably buy anyway), you’re pretty much guaranteed to find something worth adding to your cart.
Obviously, the things that excite me, a beauty editor, the most about the whole event are the Prime Day beauty deals. And while scrolling through this year’s offerings, I was absolutely pumped to discover that a whole lot of the things on sale are ones that I actually already use in my everyday routine. A few honorable mentions? The tinted SPF that keeps my skin protected and even, the only straightening iron I’d ever use to protect the integrity of my hair, and a black liquid eyeliner that makes creating a cat-eye so easy, literally anyone can do it. With new deals dropping seemingly every hour, it’s impossible not to want to shell out an entire month’s paycheck for the sake of the cause (which, by the way, is basically what I’ll be doing over the next two days).
Scroll through for a few of my favorite Prime Day beauty deals, and get ready for a big overnight shipment to show up on your doorstep come tomorrow.
