When It Comes to Skincare, I Always Stock Up on These 15 Amazon Beauty Buys (and They're on Sale Now)
Fact: There's very little I love more than kicking off and winding down my day with a skincare routine. While I've loved trying my hand at the "skinimalism" trend that has had a choke hold on beauty experts and consumers, I have to admit there's nothing like an Amazon savings event that can convince me to make some room in my skincare lineup for some new favorites. With only a few months left in 2024 to treat myself, I'll definitely be taking full advantage of Amazon Prime Big Deal Days for beauty finds at majorly discounted prices.
Interested in knowing what this beauty editor will be shopping for on the massive online marketplace? Below, I'm detailing every cleanser, oil, serum, and more I'll be adding to my basket during the last few hours of the savings event to give my skincare routine a glow-up.
The Best Amazon Skincare to Save On
Using a cleansing balm in my routine has made a world of difference in my skin's texture. This TirTir cleansing balm gently exfoliates using active enzymes and the brand's unique Rice Enzioticx Complex (made of Goami extracts, probiotics, and patented enzymes) while also adding moisture back in.
Customer Review: "This is a very nice and effective cleanser. The scent is very light and there is no oily residue. My skin feels and looks fresh and clean and vibrant and I am very pleased with this product as a result."
NuFace's Hydrating Aqua Gel will help conduct your NuFace device's micro-current down to your facial muscles using a formula featuring hyaluronic acid and glacial water. It also helps attract and lock in moisture to improve your skin's radiance.
Customer Review: "I like this hydrating gel for use with my derma dream device. It had a great slick and absorbs well into my skin after using my machine."
When it comes to my daily skincare routine, I like to keep things simple. Azelaic Topical Acid 10% may sound complicated, but it makes sure my product lineup can stay straightforward. It combines glycinated azelaic acid complex and niacinamide with vitamin C and coffee seed extract to provide gentle exfoliation and balance excess oil.
Customer Review: "This product has really helped improve my skin's tone and texture! It has helped with the occasional break out and seems to be helping my pores. Highly recommend!"
When shopping for milk cleansers, the first thing I look for is a formula that doesn't leave any residue behind that pills with the rest of my products. The Milk Cleanse Gentle Bubbles Cleanser removes makeup and pollutants and leaves my skin looking dewy, fresh, and residue-free thanks to a nourishing formula with super mushroom, silver ear mushroom, and vitamin E.
Customer Review: "I’ve just finished a bottle and stocked up on more during the sale! Obsessed with this gentle, creamy cleanser. It feels decadent on the skin and leaves you very supple without any breakouts for my sensitive skin."
Newcomers to the world of retinol will love the gentle-yet-effective properties of the Beginner Retinol Gel. This serum-like gel helps improve the appearance of fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and uneven tone using a combination of 0.1% Tri-Retinoid Comfort Complex, aloe vera, cica, and squalane.
Customer Review: "This was my first time using retinol and I'm definitely very pleased! I have pretty sensitive skin so I wasn't sure how my face would react to this Retinol cream but so far so good!"
Everyone deserves to have a soothing and hydrating lip balm at their disposal. This one from Laneige is a must year-round but is especially great during the cooler fall and winter months since it naturally hydrates, moisturizes, and soothes chapped lips. Its formula boasts Murumuru seed and shea butter—two ingredients that are great for delivering and locking in moisture.
Customer Review: "I’m a ride or die Aquaphor girly, but I find myself reaching for this over the Aquaphor now. The thickness is perfect and not sticky. Also love that it’s unscented. It’s the perfect night time mask but also not too thick to where you couldn’t wear it throughout the day. Ordering another for my purse!"
The second I start to feel a slight dip in temperature, I reach for this hydrating and glow-boosting face mast by Dr. Jart+. The intensive water gel mask keeps my skin looking plump while working to rebuild the skin barrier with helpful ingredients like hyaluronic acid and Pentavitin. It's also suitable for sensitive skin and use after laser treatments.
Customer Review: "This is a really great moisturizing mask, I used it and it made my face feel very soft and moisturized. It stayed on well and wasn't uncomfortable. It was really easy to use!"
If you aren't double cleansing with a cleansing oil, you're majorly missing out on the juicy benefits. I stock up on this dual-phase, mushroom-infused cleansing oil because it rids my skin of impurities while replenishing it with fatty acids for peak hydration. The milk-like formula also includes nourishing sunflower, babassu, and apple seed oils.
Customer Review: "This gentle cleansing oil is spectacular at removing dirt, oil and old makeup without destroying my beautiful skin in the process. It leaves my complexion moist and generously supple and natural appearing!
Turmeric is praised for its ability to brighten dull skin, which is an absolute must for me during the winter months. To help restore a natural glow to my complexion, I use this face oil by Sunday Riley. With pure vitamin C and cold-pressed turmeric, the oil offers nutrient-rich extracts to restore skin luminosity while also addressing dryness, dark spots, and uneven tones.
Customer Review: "This product is amazing. I look forward to putting it on my face each morning, it smells amazing! The bottle lasts me about 3-4 months. So you definitely get your moneys worth!"
If you're old enough to remember the trill sound of dial-up internet, it's time for you to add ceramide-based products to your skincare routine. This serum by Beekman 1802 delivers moisture, clears pores, balances discoloration, and controls oily skin using a powerful formula packed with ceramides, squalane, hyaluronic acid, and plant enzymes.
Customer Review: "I have extremely sensitive skin and this is amazing! It calms my skin down so much and doesn’t break me out! Will definitely be repurchasing!"
Another great product I've added to my morning skincare routine in the past year? This tinted SPF 50 primer by Indie Lee. It melts into the skin for the most gorgeous, golden veil of color that can be worn alone or mixed in with base makeup products. It also provides UV and UB protection without leaving a white cast.
Customer Review: "I have been using this for over a year now and it is my go-to! Super lightweight, giving a sheer, subtle tint and 50 SPF are you kidding! I'll wear it by itself when I am doing a light makeup look, but it is buildable and easy to add a full coverage foundation on top! LOVE!"
Elizabeth Arden's award-winning Retinol + HPR Ceramide Capsules Skin Renewing Serum improves skin elasticity, tone, and radiance using a potent formula that blends retinol with HPR ceramide for fresh, youthful-looking skin. Plus, it's gentle enough to be used both day and night on all skin types.
Customer Review: "Amazing product and the packaging is so simple and elegant. I was skeptical at first but this product has improved my skin texture significantly! I highly recommend!"
Looking for a new moisturizer to kick off the latter half of the year with? One of my favorites, the Obagi Hydrate Facial Moisturizer, is clinically proven to rid the skin of dryness using innovative hydration technology and naturally derived ingredients like tara seed extract, shea butter, and avocado oil for a jaw-dropping eight hours of moisture retention.
Customer Review: "I have used this moisturizer for 15 years it is easy for me to say it truly is the best on the market. It won't break you out and keeps you hydrated. I can't count the number of people I've turned onto this product."
I discovered this classic mud mask backstage at an Alice Olivia show. In addition to purifying the skin of pesky impurities, this mask firms the skin with sweet almond and avocado oils, hydrates and nourishes the skin using a blend of bentonite clay and hyaluronic acid, as well as combats pollution with Siberian ginseng root and Chaga mushroom extracts.
Customer Review: "Love this mud mask. I used this mask many years ago and I am so happy I have rediscovered it once more. Very moisturizing. Once dry it comes off easily with water. My skin feels soft once again."
The next time you're having a skincare night, consider using Key Soulcare's hand-crafted obsidian stone facial roller to give your skin some extra TLC. This must-have tool will help revitalize the appearance of your skin’s tone, texture and suppleness.
Customer Review: "I have wanted one of these forever! I like how cool the obsidian stone stays during use. It's nice to use on my neck and around my face, and its helped with my puffy eyes in the morning. It has a nice feel in the hand during use and feels like it is of quality construction. I would buy this again."
