The 12 Best Early Black Friday Beauty Deals I'm Shopping Before the Holiday Rush

A luxe-smelling body wash can transform shower time into a spa-like experience. Salt & Stone's Neroli & Basil is particularly lovely and a favorite of mine. Neroli gives it a citrusy brightness, while basil and shiso leaf add a fresh, herbal quality. Plus, the formula is just as good as the scent thanks to niacinamide and hyaluronic acid to help keep skin hydrated.

Review: "I’m so pleased It’s not only a great soap it’s got a beautiful scent that lingers ❤️" — Nordstrom

Prada beauty products are practically made for gifting. (The packaging, come on!) This set includes a gorgeously textured hand cream and a jojoba-infused lip balm, both of which are small enough to keep in a handbag.

Review: "I love all things chrome and this balm just adds that perfect touch. Beautiful finish and magnetic closure." — Nordstrom

My biggest grievance with styling my hair is how much time it takes, so much so that I often revert to air drying most days. Shark's FlexStyle is one of the strongest, quickest hair tools I've found. Its airflow technology wraps hair and styles it almost instantly, while ionic technology helps tame frizz. The best of both worlds. Plus, look at how gorgeous this mint green and dusty pink is.

Review: "I bought this on a whim to try the curling styler, but the best part of this is the blow dryer and brush attachment. It was so fast, and my hair is so shiny and full of body. Amazing! Highly recommended!" — Ulta

There's a reason Korean toner pads are my go-tos for smooth, poreless-looking skin. Medicube's version combines lactic and salicylic acids to exfoliate dead skin cells and help clear clogged pores. One side of each pad is textured for exfoliation, while the other is smooth. Rough texture and congested pores are a thing of the past with these convenient wipes.

Review: "I have been using these pads once a day consistently for two weeks so far, and I'm seeing such substantial progress! I struggle with texture on my higher cheekbones and on my chin, under my bottom lip. In just two weeks, this has reduced that texture by at least 35%. I cannot wait to keep using it and see how much texture I can eliminate completely. Nothing else has ever worked for me with the speed this has." — Ulta

There are beauty products I would absolutely spend full price on, and this is one of them—even at such a high price. That said, when I saw it on sale at Nordstrom—which, I may add, never happens—it's like the stars aligned. Now is the time to pick up this gorgeous concoction with nutty almond notes and warm amber sweetness.

Review: "This is the most amazing fragrance. I resisted purchasing it for the longest time, because justifying the expense to my hubby for perfumes of this caliber can be challenging. Regardless, it is worth every cent!" — Nordstrom

Don't underestimate the results of a great at-home teeth whitening kit. Crest is an icon for a reason—this kit pairs its cult-favorite peroxide-based whitening strips with an LED light for a one-two punch against surface and deeper stains.

Review: "I'm on day 7 out of 20, and wow, I already notice my smile is noticeably whiter; it's definitely working as described. I can't wait to see the end result. I'm very excited." — Amazon

I'm partial to makeup that can be applied with my fingers, especially when I'm getting ready in a hurry. (I'm always running late, what can I say.) Bobbi Brown's Pot Rouge has a luxe, creamy consistency that blends into my cheeks like butter and imparts a soft, satin finish. It's the perfect rosy flush.

Review: "I looove this as blush. It’s a bit small for the price but the quality makes up for it. Cute little pot. It’s mildly dewy, light enough to be buildable but the pigment is really there. I think this color is perfect for neutral, neutral warm to warm undertone." — Amazon

If your idea of glass skin includes a stunningly dewy, healthy-looking complexion, Peach & Lily's serum is the skincare to grab. The lightweight formula uses niacinamide to improve the appearance of uneven tone, alongside hyaluronic acid for hydration. That fresh, bouncy look is only one click away.

Review: "This product is the BEST. I have tried so many of Peach and Lily's products, and this is my favorite by far. The serum isn't too heavy, and it leaves my skin feeling radiant and helps with skin texture. Love love love!!!" — Ulta

Here's one for the chilly winter nights ahead of us, when your barrier is craving a little comfort. Kiehl's overnight mask starts as a thick balm before melting into a silky oil on contact with the skin. It uses squalane to help replenish moisture and soften dry patches, making this an especially perfect addition to a cold-weather skincare routine.

Review: "I have used Kiehl's for 35 years, and as soon as I saw this new squalane-intensive facial product, I purchased it immediately and started to use it daily. My skin is noticeably plumper, and it is more comfortable; I think it is improving the small broken blood vessels on my cheeks too. I am also using the Ultra Facial Moisturizer daily, and I am very happy with the results of this routine so far [about 2 months]." — Nordstrom

I Don't Know What is a bit of a fragrance nerd's dream. (Cough, cough. Me.) It's built around aroma molecules like Iso E Super and Ambrox, which give it a warm, woody, skin-like scent. What makes it particularly amazing is its versatility. You can wear it alone for something understated or layer it over another perfume to add depth. The choice is yours.

Review: "Ds Durga, I don't know what is one of the best finds so far in my perfume collection. I bought this three months ago, and I can most certainly attest that it amplifies the scent of whatever else I'm using, turning it into something tailored for me. Amazing on its own too and definitely can't wait to use in summer!" — Nordstrom

Some claw clips are purely functional; this one is basically jewelry for your hair. Between the turquoise stones and gold detailing, even a messy twisted bun would look très chic.

Review: "Gorgeous design that stands out in my brunette hair, and the quality is top-notch. It's sturdy and has lasted me for quite some time now." — Siena Gagliano

Famed esthetician Joanna Czech's approach to skincare has always emphasized caring for the skin barrier, and this duo follows that philosophy. The Toner delivers lightweight hydration, while The Balm brings a much richer layer of moisture with ingredients like ceramides. The two-step system locks everything into the skin, and you're guaranteed to wake up with the most gorgeously glowing and soft skin.

Review: "I love this balm. I use it before I walk the dog on a cold day, it’s so thick and creamy. At night after I wash my face and if my face feels dry, I put this on and the next morning, my skin feels so soft. This is a winning product. Expensive, so I try to use sparingly." — Joanna Czech
