There's truly no better time of year to add a bunch of cult-favorite goodies to your skincare routine than during Black Friday—especially when you're doing your shopping at a major retailer like Bluemercury. As of right now, the beauty giant is offering deals on hundreds of beauty products from dozens of major brands. At minimum, you can purchase products starting at a 20 percent discount, though that discount increases depending on how much money you're willing to spend. Customers spending at least $800 can get 25 percent off their entire cart, while those spending $1500 or more can get up to 30 percent off.
The big sale includes a ton of brands, most notably SkinCeuticals, a science-backed, medical-grade skincare brand that all of our editors are obsessed with. (Our team tested out the brand's best products last year, all of which are available to shop during Bluemercury's Black Friday sale). You can also score discounts on other luxury brands like Tata Harper, Supergoop!, 111SKIN, and many more.
Keep reading to see some of the best skincare deals at Bluemercury, from moisturizers and serums to skincare devices. The prices below are reflective of a 20 percent discount, so keep that in mind when adding products to your cart.

SkinCeuticals has an extensive lineup of impressive skin helpers, but if I had to recommend just one product to a newbie, it'd be this cult-favorite vitamin C serum. It's a powerful antioxidant cocktail that stops environmental aggressors from aging the skin, and it's one of the brand's best-selling products. "When I tell you that my skin transformed after only a few uses, I mean it," says Marie Claire's fashion e-commerce editor, Julia Marzovilla. "I had (what I thought were) deeply-rooted scars from previous breakouts and slight discoloration from time spent in the sun, and this powerful little product made them look less noticeable before doing away with some spots altogether."
Skin barrier repair has been a buzzy topic over the last year, and if you're looking for a non-irritating cream to help restore the outermost layer of your skin, this thick cream is for you. "This cream has also been a godsend for my foray into retinol," says associate commerce editor Brooke Knappenberger. "After a too-strong serum left my skin in a red, flaky mess, this moisturizer brought my skin back to normal in just a day or two."
If you're old enough to remember when Black Friday shopping meant camping outside of the mall at 3AM to shop "door buster" sales, you're old enough to need an eye cream. This one uses a blend of caffeine and Matrixyl 3000 peptides to reduce puffiness, dark circles, and signs of aging around the eyes.
Getting an LED light facial at a spa, while relaxing, can cost a pretty penny. If you want to add some luxury to your routine while being slightly more economical, invest in an at-home LED light mask. This one from HigherDose uses red light therapy to address signs of aging, firmness, and elasticity.
If you're like me and have been experiencing extreme dryness due to the change in temperature around this time of year, you should invest in a rich moisturizer like this one that can relieve dryness while also protecting your skin barrier and preventing environmental damage.
This cleanser is so good that it became a central part of Taylor Swift's nightly, post-Eras Tour beauty routine. It uses BHAs like salicylic acid to get rid of dead skin and buildup.
I know, $200 is a pretty steep price to pay for a hyaluronic acid serum, but this one is worth the splurge. Not only does it hydrate, but it encourages collagen production to make the skin appear more firm and elastic.
This luxe gel mask can be applied in sections to address signs of aging around specific areas such as the neck and around the mouth.
This serum uses bioengineered growth factors to support skin cell turnover and firmer, tighter skin.
If you're not already wearing sunscreen daily, now's a good time to add one to your routine. EltaMD's formula protects the skin from sun-induced aging and damage while niacinamide helps reduce discoloration and dark spots.
This is another cleaner that'll come in handy if your skin gets super dry around this time of year. It's a soap-free, gel formula that gently removes dirt and buildup from the skin without drying it out and stripping away natural oils.
This product is an all-around multitasker: it protects against harmful UV rays while adding a hint of color to the skin and acting as a primer.
