It's the most wonderful time of the year: Cyber Monday. Yes, we do enjoy the turkey dinners on Thanksgiving, but very little satisfies us as much as saving a few bucks does — especially during Dermstore's Cyber Monday 2021 sale, one of the biggest savings events of the year. After long weeks of perching on the edge of our seats waiting for news on Dermstore's upcoming deals, the retailer has finally revealed its most epic deals of the year. And naturally, we wanted to pass along the details right away.
In case you haven't heard, you can shop Dermstore's Cyber Monday deals through November 29. Dermstore's biggest sale of the year features incredible deals on products from Allure-staff favorites Harry Josh and Ilia, but each brand chooses how it wants to run its own sale — so one universal discount amount isn't applicable to everything on dermstore.com.
With that being said, we're seeing savings of up to 30 percent on brands such as Dr. Dennis Gross, Urban Skin Rx, NuFace, with the code BLACK at checkout. Plus, many must-have items from brands like Sigma have been added to Dermstore's dermstore.com just for Cyber Monday, so definitely take a peek there for code-free discounts.
If you aren't a Dermstore Rewards member already, we highly recommend doing so now (it's totally free!). By signing up, you can gain double Dermstore Rewards points on select top brands (like SkinCeuticals, Olaplex, Oribe, and Dermalogica) during the retailer's major sale.
With more than 200 brands on sale, telling you every single discount from every single brand would be impossible, but we did round up the ones we absolutely had to share with you. Now is the perfect time to take stock of the existing products in your makeup bag and medicine cabinet, toss anything that's expired, then sort out which skin, makeup, and hair essentials you'll be refreshing. If you need help getting started, read on for some suggestions.

This wrinkle and fine-line-smoothing device has won an Allure Best of Beauty award two years in a row for its innovative microcurrent technology — and right now, it's 25 percent off. NuFace's Trinity kit also includes the Lip and Eye and the red light therapy Wrinkle Reducer heads, plus a bottle of the Gel Primer to glide the device on your skin with ease.

EltaMD UV Clear Broad Spectrum SPF 46
iS Clinical Cleansing Complex
Ask any skin-care lover and they'll tell you vitamin C is one of the best ingredients for a glowing, even complexion. Though the virtual aisles of Dermstore's skin-care selection are filled with products infused with the antioxidant, Sunday Riley's 15% Vitamin C Brightening Serum is one of our favorites. It has a high concentration of vitamin C that's paired with glycolic acid, an alpha hydroxy acid known for its skin-smoothing properties.
Even though summer is long gone, sunscreen is still essential to our daily routines. So, make sure to stock up on EltaMD’s Allure Best of Beauty-winning UV Clear Broad Spectrum SPF 46. This sunscreen is beloved by our staff for its lightweight, oil-free formula that won’t clog pores. It’s also fragrance-free, making it a great option for sensitive skin types.
One of the most essential parts of your skin-care routine is inarguably your face wash, so why not treat your skin to a new cleanser? One of our favorites is the iS Clinical Cleansing Complex, which is infused with a plethora of nourishing ingredients like hydrating glycerin, brightening vitamin C, and salicylic acid for exfoliation to keep your complexion in check.

SkinMedica Instant Bright Eye Cream
If you're in need of a gentle toner, look no further than Indie Lee's CoQ-10 Toner. It has a refreshing feel, thanks to a hydrating mix of chamomile, hyaluronic acid, aloe, and cucumber extracts. The brand's best-selling toner is also infused with Coenzyme Q10, an ingredient known for its antioxidant properties.
Most skin types will enjoy the hydration boost from PCA Skin's Hyaluronic Acid Boosting Serum, but drier complexions will especially appreciate it. As the name suggests, this gentle serum contains hyaluronic acid to plump skin and retain moisture. But that’s not the only ingredient you can find: It also contains moisturizing ceramides and niacinamide to smooth skin texture.
Dark circles and sagging happen, and though there's no magical elixir to make them disappear completely, SkinMedica's Instant Bright Eye Cream can reduce their intensity. This rich eye cream is infused with hyaluronic acid for hydrating, skin-smoothing properties, as well as caffeine for brightening and anti-inflammatory effects.

Grow Gorgeous Repair Heat Protection Leave-In Oil
Curly heads of hair will also love the defining, hydrating boost that comes from Christophe Robin's new Luscious Curl Cream. The main ingredient in this curl cream is chia seed, which is also known for its skin-care benefits, too.
Aquis has some of the gentlest, no-slip hair towel turbans to ever exist — and now, one of the brand's most luxurious options is $20 off. This double-layered hair turban absorbs moisture and dries your hair without the damage-inducing roughness of your average towel, so it's basically a purchase that your hair is begging for.
If you're grabbing a new hot tool during Black Friday sales, make sure to also nab a heat protectant every time to avoid any damage (like frizziness, brittle texture, and breakage). This leave-in oil from Grow Gorgeous will guard your hair against high temperatures while it smoothes and glosses with moisturizing marula, moringa, and coconut oils.

Wander Beauty Mile High Club Volume and Length Mascara
A very quick dig into Dermstore's makeup section unloads tons of on-sale treasures from brands like BareMinerals and Wander Beauty. The former's Original Mineral Veil setting powder duo gives you the best of both worlds: the brand's fan-favorite loose powder, which helps minimize the look of fine lines and pores without creating flashback, and a pressed powder version for mattifying touchups.
Since we're already on the subject, why not top off your eye looks with the Best of Beauty-winning Wander Beauty Milke High Club Mascara? This opaque-black formula stands out for its volumizing and lengthening properties paired with a thick bristle brush with tapered ends. Plus, its unconventional tube packaging allows you to grab every drop of mascara, giving you a true bang for your buck.

Beautyblender Original Makeup Sponge
We can never have enough nude eye shadows, which is why we're stocking up on the Tarte Tartelette Toasted Eye Shadow Palette. This neutral, 12-shade palette is filled with buttery mattes, shimmers, and satins to create casual eye-enhancing looks, whether that be a simple single shadow or a more intricate cut-crease. Here's a tip: You can also use a liner brush to use any of these shades as eyeliner, too.
Whether you use complexion products or not, you've probably tried a Beautyblender sponge at least once in your life. This iconic egg-shaped sponge has now become a staple in every beauty lover's collection for its ability to seamlessly blend and buff makeup in a way no other brush can. If you need another reason why you should stock (or restock) your beauty tool kit with this sponge, it's currently 20 percent off.

Jane Iredale PureGloss Lip Gloss
Fans of subtle neutrals will love the By Terry VIP Expert Palette in the Earth-tone-filled N4. Bonjour Paris. This palette features a mix of nine blendable mattes and shimmers to mix and match, all inspired by neutral hues you'd find on a Parisian stroll: think soft nudes, copper, blush pink, and gold.
Complexion favorites from brands like Ilia can also be spotted during this sale, like the brand's Best of Beauty-winning Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40. This foundation-serum hybrid leaves a veil of light coverage to even skin tone and provides a radiant, dewy finish. It's also infused with a hydrating duo of hyaluronic acid and squalane while niacinamide reduces the appearance of pores.
We're firm believers in the fact that you can never have enough lip gloss. If you haven't tried it yet, the PureGloss Lip Gloss from Jane Iredale is especially great because it has a subtle shimmer, gorgeous glossy (but not sticky) finish, and semi-opaque pigment that only needs one swipe to shine through.
Whew. That's a lot to keep track of, but we're not exaggerating when we say this is just the tip of the iceberg. Take it from us, and don't sleep on the Dermstore Cyber Monday sale. Remember the fun only lasts through November 29, so get your carts (and wallets) ready.
