These Black Friday Beauty Deals Are Still Going

If I can offer one piece of unsolicited advice: Black Friday is a marathon, not a sprint. With the surplus of Black Friday beauty deals, it’s way too easy to spiral or blow your entire budget at Ulta the first day, but that’s exactly what we’re trying to avoid. It may not be Black Friday anymore, but Black Friday beauty deals are still kicking around this weekend. From LED skincare devices and hair styling tools to snail mucin and acne stickers, we have it all.

I’ll be refreshing this list with the latest deals, so check back often. For more intel on sales, check out our Best Black Friday Deals roundup or our Black Friday liveblog.

Updated November 29: We’ve added deals on the LED Esthetics GloTech Collar, Tepenar Hair Dryer Bonnet Attachment, Drybar’s Double Shot Oval Blow Dryer Brush, and its Prep Rally Prime & Prep Detangler. We also vetted prices.

WIRED Featured Deals

The Best Red Light Therapy Mask

While we haven’t tested the Green Tea Serum or Hydrogel Face Mask (both included in this bundle), this offer is too good to pass up. The standout here is the LED Series 2, which alone retails for $470 (and is not on sale), making this deal $48 less than the mask alone. In other words, it’s a steal even if you don’t plan to use the accompanying products. The LED Series 2 is the best red light therapy mask on the market. Crafted from medical-grade silicone, it hugs your face with 236 bulbs, ensuring direct contact. It delivers three wavelengths—red (633 nanometers), near-infrared (830 nanometers), and deep near-infrared (1072 nanometers)—to target skin rejuvenation at multiple depths. I’d recommend this splurge to people who’d like to target fine lines, wrinkles, or sun damage. Reviewer Nena Farrell also noted visible improvements in her acne scarring.

This Professional Blow Dryer Brush Costs Less Than the Salon

We know and love Drybar, especially the Double Shot Oval, which, frankly, is the best blow-dryer brush we’ve tried. Reviewer Nena Farrell has fine, curly hair that tends to frizz, and she says the Double Shot can smooth it out and still deliver volume, thanks to its ionic technology and 2.4-inch oval barrel. The bristles are a combination of nylon and tuft that latches onto your hair, but it doesn’t tug or pull. It has three speed settings (cool, medium, high), maxing out at 275 degrees Fahrenheit. By the way, the Triple Shot Interchangeable Blow-Dryer Brush is on sale for $133 ($57 off) if you’re craving some more variety.

Don’t Forget the Heat Protectant Spray

Drybar

Prep Rally Prime & Prep Detangler

As I said, we love Dry Bar, and the Prep Rally Prime & Prep Detangler is our favorite heat protectant spray for damp hair. It’s lightweight and formulated without phthalates, parabens, or sulfates. Instead, it’s fortified with UV protection, biotin, seaberry oil, and vitamins; editor Kat Merck says the formula is soft and hydrating but not overly heavy. The “Noir” scent smells slightly minty, with notes of ginger and sandalwood. There’s also a Coconut Colada scent that seems to be just as widely available. Drybar’s Hot Toddy Heat Protectant Mist is also discounted to $20 ($11 off) for dry hair.

This Hard-Shell Mask Is $91 Off

Reviewer Kat Merck found this cordless, hard-shell LED mask from Dr. Dennis Gross to be super comfortable to use. After just two weeks of consistent use of the red-and-blue combination therapy setting, she noticed a reduction in facial blemishes. She likes that the lights aren’t too bright around the eyeholes, so she can still walk around and multitask. Plus, it’s a brief, three-minute session (with an auto-shut-off feature) that makes it a cinch to fit into the busiest of routines. That also means the battery lasts ages. Merck used it close to every day for six weeks and did not need to charge it once. A $91 off discount is not too shabby either. Bonus: For a limited time, purchases over $200 (aka this one) include a free gift if you purchase directly from the company’s website.

This LED Mask Is $120 Off

This is one of the more affordable (and FDA-cleared) LED masks available, and with this Black Friday, it’s even more budget-friendly. The Glotech Mask Pro combines red and blue light therapy to help clear acne and manage oil production. Reviewer Nena Farrell noticed a healthier glow, with scabs and breakouts healing faster and without the usual scarring. After three months of consistent use, reviewer Kat Merck noticed a subtle softening of fine lines, though she notes it’s barely noticeable in certain lighting. This is an ideal starter mask for anyone wanting to try LED therapy, and the discount makes it an even better value.

A Neck Collar to Match Your New Face Mask

If you’re a fan of the LED Esthetics Glotech Mask Pro, may I recommend the brand’s Glotech Collar? Editor Adrienne So tested this for our LED devices guide, and she found it incredibly user-friendly. Because it’s on your neck and chest, it’s easier to use while multitasking. It’s a small battery that lasts for two 10-minute sessions, but it’s rechargeable via USB-C and doesn’t take too long to charge. LED Esthetics does recommend its proprietary serums to amplify the results, but you’re fine with just your go-to moisturizer.

The Best Wet-Dry Hair Straightener

Reviewer Kat Merck tested the Airstrait on her 3a curly hair, and while she did have to go over it with a traditional flat iron afterward, she appreciated Dyson’s Hyperdymium motor and the glass bead thermistors that regulate temperature. It’s a wet-to-dry straightener that uses airflow to dry and straighten hair simultaneously. If you do have really thick, coarse, or coily hair, I’d maybe think twice about the Airstrait, but it’s a game-changer for those with fine or wavy hair. This is a luxe hair tool that doesn’t go on sale too often, so if there was a time to snag, it’s now.

You Need An Electric Toothbrush

Philips

Sonicare 4100 Electric Toothbrush

Whether you need an oscillating or a sonic electric toothbrush is really a matter of preference. Sonic toothbrushes tend to be gentler on both teeth and gums because of their mild vibrations, especially the Philips Sonicare 4100. I’d also recommend this toothbrush to people with smaller mouths or narrower jaws because of its slimmer brush head. For $30 on sale this Black Friday, you’ve got all the features you need: a pressure sensor to prevent excessive force, a two-minute timer with auto shut-off, and two intensity levels. The battery lasts for two weeks on a single charge, and a light and beep will remind you when it’s time to replace the brush head.

A New Travel Bestie for $140

Therabody

TheraFace Depuffing Wand

Therabody’s TheraFace Depuffing Wand is one of my favorite skincare tools to travel with. (Yes, it’s TSA-friendly.) It delivers both hot and cold therapy to help reduce under-eye puffiness, increase blood flow, and boost skincare product absorption. The cold setting is everything after long hauls, but really, it’s just a soothing little ritual, no matter where you are. The temperature stays consistent throughout the six-minute cycle, and a quick flash at the halfway point tells you when to switch sides. I especially love the contoured tip that allows me to get into the corners and crevices of my face. It comes in white and a lovely shade of indigo.

Stock Up on the Best Dry Shampoo for Lazy Days

Living Proof

Living Proof

Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo

Reviewer Kat Merck has been using Living Proof’s dry shampoo for years, and she swears by it. Mainly comprised of starch and a “microporous mineral blend,” it cleans hair through a proprietary absorption and powder-removal process. Spray, wait 30 seconds, and massage in with your fingers. The white cast works in quickly, and the scent is not totally overwhelming. It’s also benzene-free, sulfate-free, and safe to use on color-treated hair.

Restock on Pimple Patches

Hero Cosmetics

Mighty Patch Original Patch

Just like toilet paper, you never want to run out of hydrocolloid patches, and Black Friday is the perfect time to restock. Hero Cosmetics’ Mighty Patch is the one I reach for most. It sits well under makeup, is effective at drawing out gunk, and acts as a protective barrier, so I’m not tempted to pick at my skin. At 25 percent off, I’m grabbing a couple of boxes.

This Beloved Curling Iron Is 30 Percent Off

A longtime favorite, this curling iron routinely earns a top spot in our hairstyling guides, and this 30 percent discount only sweetens the deal. It heats up in just 25 or so seconds, and the extended barrel and clamp design make it relatively easy to wrap and release. I’d recommend this one for beginners and people with long or thick hair. There’s no temperature dial, which feels somewhat limiting, but the color-coded heat indicators are simple enough. At $167, it’s a worthwhile upgrade that’s cheaper than a few salon visits.

Snail Mucin Serum on Sale

Cosrx

Advanced Snail Mucin 96 Percent Power Repairing Essence Serum

If you’ve been intrigued by snail mucin, this is the time to try it. COSRX’s Black Friday sale runs through December 1 at Amazon and Ulta, with discounts on most of the K-beauty brand’s bestsellers. The 96% Mucin Power Essence serum is my personal favorite; it’s lightweight, fragrance-free, and hypoallergenic. Packed with elastin, hyaluronic acid, glycolic acid, and a mix of vitamins and minerals that support skin repair and help calm irritation. It’s especially helpful if you deal with redness or breakouts, and it does a brilliant job of locking in moisture without feeling sticky.

A Hair Tool for Dry Winter Tresses

This steamer helps lock in moisture and enhances the effects of any treatments you may be using.

The Pattern Hair Steamer is featured in our diffusers buying guide, but it’s technically in a product category all on its own. It steams your hair, opening up the cuticle to allow deeper penetration of your treatments and products, and adding tons of moisture in the process. I immediately notice a difference when I use it in conjunction with a hair mask or deep conditioner, and I also like using it to refresh my curls when I go longer between washes (like I do all winter long). —Louryn Strampe

Monthly Trending Beauty Surprises

Our sister publication Allure makes a fantastic monthly beauty subscription box. It usually costs $30 per month, but you can enter code BEAUTY to get $10 off for Black Friday. Each box contains a mix of full-size and mini products, and there’ll always be at least one trendy brand or beauty item. Everything in the box is handpicked by Allure editors, which makes each month’s box feel more special and up-to-date than some of the other boxes I tried. There are deals on gift subscriptions, too. —Louryn Strampe

An Excellent, Affordable Hair Dryer

Conair

InfinitiPRO by Conair SmoothWrap Hair Dryer

This is our favorite affordable hair dryer, and right now it’s even more accessible. It’s lightweight and reliable, with three heat and two speed settings. It’s not supremely fancy; It doesn’t have every bell and whistle and perfectly nuanced airflow technology. But it’ll dry your hair, and it’ll do it well, without costing your entire budget. —Louryn Strampe

A Bonnet Attachment That Does the Work

Tepenar

Hair Dryer Bonnet Attachment

This bonnet attachment is brilliant if you detest holding up a dryer to your curls, and it costs $13. It’s a universal attachment that’s compatible with most standard hair dryers. Once the hose is attached using the Velcro strap, the hood goes over your head and around your hair. It’s designed with two layers; the first layer gets pumped with air that is then dispersed to the second layer through the ventilation holes. Drying time varies, but former WIRED reviewer Medea Giordano was able to dry her long, curly hair in about 30 minutes. There are several similar options on Amazon, but we like this one because it has plenty of room for long hair to rest naturally, rather than get scrunched up.
