ICYMI, Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is on now through March 31. During it, you can save money on your favorite fashion and beauty staples… maybe even order a new item to test or snag that expensive beauty device at a discount…
Personally, I’m playing a game of strategy during this sale, focusing my time, effort, and money on securing the big-ticket items. You know, those that are usually pricey (the key word there is “usually”). After all, the more expensive a product is, the more money you save when you buy it on sale. Currently, I’m eyeing a techy Korean skin device, a salon-worthy curling iron, and a Dyson hair dryer, among other high-value things.
Then, and only then, am I adding some tried-and-true items to my cart, including an internet-famous snail mucin essence (can you guess which one?), a life-changing dry shampoo (more on that in a minute), and the iconic Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask (in a new scent!). Ahead, see every item I’m adding to my cart.
The Sale, at a Glance
The Best Beauty Products on Sale
Dyson
Supersonic Nural Hair Dryer
Yes, it’s true—Dyson’s Supersonic Nural Hair Dryer is currently $200 off its original price. This is a run-don’t-walk situation, especially because it features Dyson’s latest technology that auto-adapts to protect scalp and hair health. Translation? No heat damage whatsoever. It dries the hair quickly, comes with five styling attachments, and even comes housed in a custom storage case.
This internet-famous skin device has four distinct modes. There’s one for glow-boosting, plumping, pore-refining, and defining (for overall facial balance). It can even boost the absorption of skincare products by over 700%. If you need proof of its efficacy, just know that Hailey Bieber uses a version of the device.
LANEIGE
Lip Sleeping Mask in Taro Bubble Tea
Okay, okay, it’s not necessarily a big-ticket item, but I use my trusty Laneige Lip Sleeping Masks every night. So I won’t miss a chance to restock them, especially when this new version (Taro Bubble Tea) is on sale.
Laneige’s Taro Bubble Tea Lip Glowy Balm ($19)($15) is also on sale.
Milk Makeup
Cooling Water Jelly Tint
True to its name, Milk Makeup’s Cooling Water Jelly Tint has a cooling, jelly texture. It deposits a hydrating pop of color on the lips and cheeks that can build from sheer to bold. It’s super long-lasting too, acting like a lip and cheek tint. It’s the perfect spring-summer makeup product, and it’s 20% off right now.
medicube
PDRN Pink Peptide Serum
Here’s another skincare essential that I’m restocking during Amazon’s Big Spring Sale. It combines two skin-benefitting powerhouses: peptides and PDRN. Together, they hydrate, smooth, firm, and plump the skin.
Kiehl’s
Ultra Facial Cream
I’ve been using this face cream since high school, and honestly, I don’t think I’ll ever stop. It’s chock-full of ceramides, squalane, and glyco-proteins that strengthen the skin barrier and banish dryness like a magic charm. It makes my skin look so good that I almost forget I have rosacea, hyperpigmentation, and enlarged pores.
Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cleanser ($26)($21) is also on sale.
T3
Singlepass Curl X Extra-Long Barrel Curling Iron
Ask any beauty editor, and I bet they have at least one T3 styling tool in their collection. I know I do. And I’m about to have another—this Singlepass Curl X Extra-Long Barrel Curling Iron. You can choose between one-, 1.25-, and 1.5-inch barrels, depending on how loose you like your curls. Regardless, you’ll get an intelligent styling tool with nine heat settings and a ceramic barrel for damage-less strands.
StriVectin
Tighten and Lift Advanced Neck Cream Plus
My boss and Who What Wear’s beauty director, Erin Jahns, recommended I try this product when I complained about the dreaded signs of “tech neck” that appeared when I hit my late-20s. I’m talking about horizontal neck lines, crepey skin, and even some slight sagging. She said she’d seen success with it—specifically that it whisked away her neck lines in a few weeks.
I tried it, and no surprise, I loved it. The secret to its efficacy is patented Alpha-3 Peptides that firm, strengthen, and tighten the skin in as few as four weeks (even sooner in my case). I’m not missing out on an opportunity to secure it on sale.
Pureology
Hydrate Sheer Shampoo
I have fine, dry, color-treated hair, so I’m constantly searching for products that hydrate without weighing it down. This is one of the rare few that *always* works for me. It’s incredibly lightweight yet treats my hair with wheat proteins and eucalyptus leaf extract for soft, bouncy strands.
Don’t forget the matching conditioner ($38)($27).
OUAI
Super Dry Shampoo – Cape Town
This is my favorite dry shampoo of all time. (There, I said it.) It instantly sops up sweat and oil, keeps my hair looking fresh for days, and never leaves a white cast. And it smells incredible. There are two scents—the brand’s signature floral Melrose Place and the new, fresh Cape Town scent. The latter is my favorite. It’s fresh, herby, and almost spa-like.
ghd
Platinum+ Styler 1″ Flat Iron
GHD is another expert-approved heat-styling brand, and the Platinum Styler is one of its best products (in my humble opinion). This flat iron leaves my hair smooth, straight, shiny, and sleek. It guarantees even heat for less damage (and, more specifically, 70% stronger hair than other, traditional flat irons). It’s a no-brainer, especially when it’s almost 50% off.
Glow Recipe
Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Hue Drops
This spring, I’m focused on glowing skin, and this multipurpose product is how I’m going to get it. It can be used as bronzing drops for a natural sun-kissed look, a glowy primer for better makeup application, and even a liquid highlighter. Regardless of how it’s used, it brightens and hydrates the skin with niacinamide and hyaluronic acid. And thanks to a sheer, universal tint, anyone can use it.
Solawave
4-in-1 Red Light Therapy Wand
Even Solawave’s 4-in-1 Red Light Therapy Wand is on sale (30% off). It uses four skin therapies—red light therapy, galvanic current, therapeutic warmth, and facial massage—to rejuvenate the skin. I’m talking about line and wrinkle reduction, skin tightening, de-puffing, and more.
COSRX
Snail Mucin Power Essence
Snail mucin is exactly what it sounds like—the gel-like substance that’s secreted by, well, snails. It might sound off-putting to the uninitiated, but snail-mucin lovers know how it can transform dry and dehydrated skin into smooth, plump, and moisturized skin. It’s a one-way ticket to “glass skin,” and this is the internet’s favorite pick. It’s lightweight, glow-boosting, and makes my makeup look flawless.
BONDIBOOST
Infrared Thermal Round Brush
I can’t say enough good things about this thermal round brush. It doesn’t damage my fine, dry, color-treated hair. It dries and styles it all at once. And, most importantly, it gives me the big, bouncy blowouts of my dreams (no professional hairstylist necessary).
This hair serum is specifically designed to treat and reverse thinning. It uses plant-based phytoactives to improve overall hair wellness—soothing the scalp and increasing hair density. And let me tell you, it really works. I’ve seen it firsthand. I swear it regrew all the baby hairs I lost due to hormonal issues.
Sol de Janeiro
Brazilian Play Body Wash
Nothing elevates a shower into a spa-like experience quite like a sweetly scented bodywash, and this one is a sensorial delight. It’s chock-full of plant oil and butter to smooth, soften, and moisturize the skin. And the scent! It carries the same delectable scent as the brand’s iconic Bum Bum Cream ($48)—that is, pistachio, salted caramel, and vanilla. It’s divine.
