The Amazon Big Spring Sale is officially here, and I’m already eyeing dozens of discounts on some of my favorite beauty products. As a beauty writer, I’m constantly testing the latest skin care and makeup, so I’m here to let you know what’s actually worth your money. Right now, you can find up to 45% off cult favorites, from editor-approved peel-off face masks to red-light-therapy devices like the Solawave wand (which I religiously use every weekend). There are also markdowns on face sunscreens (now’s the perfect time to stock up) and candles that make a great gift for your mom (’cause, well, Mother’s Day is coming up). My top pick overall is the Shark FlexStyle because it’s over 25% off at $219 compared to its usual $300 price tag, and it pretty much does it all. It comes with four attachments to help you master blowout, salon-worthy curls, and take it from me, your hair routine will change for the better.
Below, I’m sharing our shopping editors’ top Amazon beauty picks to buy ASAP. The sales last until March 31st, but things are running out of stock already—so be quick.
The best Amazon beauty deals, at a glance
Best Overall: Shark FlexStyle Air Styling & Drying System
1/16Shark HD435 FlexStyle Air Styling & Drying System
By far, the best beauty deal amongst this year’s Amazon spring sale has to be this marked-down air-styling and drying system, which also happens to be a Glamour-editor-favorite curling iron. It boasts two auto-wrap curlers, a curl-defining diffuser, an oval brush, and a concentrator nozzle to suit a variety of hair types and styles. It’s a tool I use over and over again, especially before I’m headed to a special event.
Best Skin Care Device: Medicube Age-R Booster Pro
2/16Medicube Age-R Booster Pro
Glamour senior beauty editor Ariana Yaptangco has sung the praises of this Medicube Age-R Booster Pro, and she’s onto something: This handheld pick might just be the most user-friendly micro-current device out there, and it really works. “I saw immediate results when I used it, and it’s very easy for anyone to pick up and operate—a huge bonus for beginners. With multiple settings and innovative technology (it’s a six-in-one device, after all), it’s definitely worth the investment,” she says.
Best Hair Product: Amika Perk Up Plus Dry Shampoo
3/16Amika Perk Up Plus Dry Shampoo
Dry shampoo is one of those beauty products that I need to re-up every few months—that’s how much I rely on it to keep my hair looking voluminous, fresh, and clean. My holy grail will always and forever be Amika Perk Up, because it has a clean formula (we’re talking minimal ingredients and little fragrance), and never fails to make my very oily strands look like they just had a spa-worthy wash.
Best Red-Light-Therapy Device: Solawave 4-in-1 Radiant Renewal Facial Wand
4/16Solawave 4-in-1 Radiant Renewal Facial Wand
Where you’ll find me on a Sunday night? On my couch, preferably with the Syfy channel on, using this renewing facial wand that helps minimize the appearance of dark spots, fine lines, and blemishes. I’ve been using the Solawave nonstop for a few months now every week, and my skin has never looked more even-toned and smooth.
Best Beauty Gift: Nest New York Scented Classic Candle
5/16Nest New York Scented Classic Candle
Whether it’s for Mother’s Day or you’re looking for a gift for your BFF, you can’t go wrong with this classic scented candle that’s on a rare sale. Amber & Incense will always be my favorite scent of the bunch, but all of the brand’s best-selling scents (including Bamboo and Ocean Mist + Sea Salt) are currently 25% off.
Best Hair-Removal Device: Finishing Touch Flawless Facial Hair Remover
6/16Finishing Touch Flawless Facial Hair Remover
There are only a few hair-removal devices I rely on, simply because most don’t live up to the hype. This one by Finishing Touch, though, will always be my go-to because it works quickly and has never once left my skin irritated or uncomfortable. I’ve been using this for about a decade now, and I’ve never found anything that compares.
Best Face Mask: Biodance Bio-Collagen Real Deep Mask
7/16Biodance Bio-Collagen Real Deep Mask
Looking to stock up on a Korean face mask? I love this Tiktok-viral pick that’s also a favorite of Glamour senior commerce editor Jenifer Calle’s. “When I peeled off this mask, I was left with an amazing glow, which lasted way into the day. My face was so dewy that I didn’t even feel the need to apply foundation,” she says.
Best Korean Beauty Product: CosRX Snail Mucin 96% Peptide Booster Set
8/16CosRX Snail Mucin 96% Peptide Booster Set
Snail mucin is a Korean skin care ingredient that deeply hydrates and clarifies congested skin, making it perfect for those (like me) who deal with both oily spots and flakes, and CosRX is renowned for nailing this treatment. This peptide booster set contains two of the brand’s cult-favorite products that make skin look elastic, fresh, dewy, and more even-textured, and it’s 35% off!
Best Makeup Product: Laneige Lip Glowy Balm
9/16Laneige Lip Glowy Balm
You’ve probably heard a thing or two about the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask, which I use just about every evening before I head to bed. Let me introduce you to my favorite daytime version of this product: this glowy tinted lip balm that’s the perfect hybrid between a nourishing moisturizer and a gloss. Grapefruit, one of my favorite shades (I’m talking a warm-toned poppy orange that complements my olive skin perfectly), is 20% off at the online retailer.
Best Pimple Patch: Starface Hydro-Stars
10/16Starface Hydro-Stars Starter Pack
Real talk, I don’t go to sleep without a pimple patch. My go-tos are these cute little stars that have a hydrocolloid formula on the underside that helps heal pimples quickly.
Best Curlers: Kitsch Satin Heatless Hair Curler Set
11/16Kitsch Satin Heatless Hair Curler Set
Overnight curls, anyone? You probably recognize this heatless curler set from Tiktok, and I’m thrilled to see that it’s a whopping 43% off for Amazon’s beauty sale. And if you’re a side sleeper (like me), Glamour contributor Brigitt Earley shares that they’re so good, they won’t disrupt your slumber. “I barely felt it on my head, and it was comfortable to sleep in, even though I tend to sleep on my side,” she says.
Best Body Sunscreen: Sol de Janeiro Rio Radiance Body Spray SPF 50
12/16Sol de Janeiro Rio Radiance Body Spray SPF 50
This radiant body SPF spray not only makes my skin glisten and sparkle, it also protects with SPF 50. You can bet I’ll be stocking up at this Amazon beauty sale, as it’s currently 30% off (and it’s on Amazon Prime—yes, please!).
Best Under-Eye Patches: Topicals Faded Brightening Under Eye Masks
13/16Topicals Faded Brightening Under Eye Masks
Under-eye patches do a lot of handiwork in minimizing the appearance of my dark circles, and I rely on these often. They stick right on (and stay in place) and do a nice job at evening out my skin tone in this area for a brighter, more awake finish.
Best Face Sunscreen: EltaMD UV Restore Face Sunscreen
14/16EltaMD UV Restore Face Sunscreen
Now’s the time to stock up on face sunscreen stat, and the good news is that Amazon’s beauty sale has a slew of options currently available for 20% off their usual prices. Case in point: this tinted sunscreen that’s suitable for all skin types, including acne and oily-prone complexions. The clear version is also on sale, too, which is a perfect pick if you’re looking to layer your sunscreen under makeup.
Best Vitamin C Serum: Paula’s Choice Boost C15 Super Booster
15/16Paula's Choice Boost C15 Super Booster
If you’re in the market for a new vitamin C serum, Amazon is offering discounts on antioxidant bestsellers too. This booster pick is a favorite of Glamour commerce producer Leilani McQuay’s and is marked down to $44 from its typical $55. “The serum felt lightweight upon application, lends a subtle glow, and—most importantly—didn’t cause any irritation or burning,” she says.
Best Self-Tanner: Coco & Eve Self Tanner Mousse Kit
16/16Coco & Eve Self Tanner Mousse Kit
It’s self-tanning season, and that means you’ll find me pretty much dunking myself in the best self-tanners for the foreseeable future. This easy-to-use tanner kit comes with an application mitt and streak-free mousse that, in short, gives me the golden glow of my dreams. Not bad for $33!
