Best Amazon Prime Day skincare deals
Amazon is brimming with an impressive selection of skincare markdowns. You’ll find discounts on products ranging from sunscreen to skin and body moisturizers, to serums and exfoliators, plus skin-care devices like this IPL hair-removal handset, which is currently 25 percent off.
Best Amazon Prime Day haircare deals
Amazon is also rife with haircare products and tools, and several Well+Good-approved items are on sale—including the T3 Airebrush, a two-in-one hair multi-styler, for 15 percent off and the internet’s favorite Revlon Blow-Dryer Brush. Also in mix: shampoos, conditioners, leave-in treatments, and styling products.
Best Amazon Prime Day makeup deals
Amazon’s makeup department runs deep too, and from now until Prime Day, the retailer is offering discounts on many, many makeup products—like foundation and mascara—and tools from Well+Good-beloved brands. Take, for instance, the L’Oréal Paris True Match Lumi Glotion, which is touted as a dupe for Charlotte Tilbury’s Flawless Filter but is just as worthy of its own shine.
