The Best Beauty Sales To Shop This Black Friday

With Black Friday sales just around the corner, now is a great time to get your beauty wishlist ready to go.

As it’s now one of the biggest sales events of the year, the Black Friday and Cyber Monday weekend can be a bit overwhelming without one.

You can, of course, avoid it altogether, but there’s nothing worse than hearing about the amazing discount your bestie nabbed a Dyson Airwrap or your favourite summer fragrance while you were unawares.

So to make sure you don’t miss out (and escape unscathed by the Internet), we’re here to help you navigate the deals with some insider info on the Black Friday and Cyber Monday beauty sales for 2024. So step right this way for stress-free shopping…

What is Black Friday and Cyber Monday?

Put simply, it’s one epic long weekend of sales and discounts. It’s the Friday after Thanksgiving in America, where it started, and we’ve since adopted it here in Australia.

There are plenty of deals online and in-store across makeup, skincare, hair, fashion, homewares, tech and just about everything else. In previous years, we’ve seen Black Friday makeup and beauty brands drop their prices by as much as 80 per cent! So while many of us may not like the ‘rush to buy’, if you’re prepared, it can be a gold mine for good deals.

When is Black Friday in Australia?

The official date for Black Friday is the 29th November, 2024. However, it’s worth noting some brands start early to beat the rush. Some even make it a week-long event, starting early and extending their deals until Cyber Monday on Monday the 2nd of December.

How big are the Black Friday beauty sales?

Sales for Black Friday and Cyber Monday can be pretty epic when it comes to saving on makeup or anything else beauty-related. To give you an idea of what to expect, here’s a look at hot offers from last year’s Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales.
