Best Amazon early Black Friday deals
Crest 3D Whitestrips
Plenty of stars and editors treat their teeth to these top-rated whitening strips. Paige DeSorbo told E! they’re “the best things ever,” while Chrishell Stause uses the portable treatment in place of professional whitening.
Page Six Style & Shopping Director Elana Fishman’s also a devotee, raving, “I’ve tried in-office whitening treatments, and these are just as effective (and way cheaper). Even my dentist approves!”
Cosrx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence
Alex Cooper used this viral serum to get ready for her wedding, while Ariana Madix first discovered it in her boyfriend’s skincare stash.
“When I would visit and stay over at his place, I would use it sometimes, and then I became addicted to it,” she told the Strategist. “I’ve been stealing it from him and I love it.”
Grace & Stella Energizing Eye Masks
Paige DeSorbo and Kyle Richards have both included these under-$20 under-eye masks in their Amazon livestreams — but they’re hardly the only ones obsessed.
The patches have over 26,000 largely glowing reviews, with customers calling them “refreshing” and “so soothing.”
L’Oréal Paris True Match Lumi Glotion
Martha Stewart’s makeup artist Daisy Foye told People she uses this glow enhancer on her superstar client “every day.”
“It’s how she gets that dewy look, like she just got a facial,” she said. “I’m obsessed with it.”
Tatcha The Rice Polish
Meghan Markle loves this exfoliator so much, she gave a bottle to each guest at her 2019 baby shower.
“I really love [it],” she told Allure five years earlier. “It just sort of foams on your face and gives you a really subtle exfoliation.”
Kopari Organic Coconut Melt
Stars go nuts for Kopari’s coconut-based skincare. Case in point? Kourtney Kardashian’s Poosh site once published a piece titled “How to Look Good Naked,” spotlighting this nourishing salve and writing, “to achieve glowy skin, it’s important to moisturize everything — everywhere.”
And Shay Mitchell once name-dropped Kopari in a PS interview, saying, “I use coconut oil for everything chapped: cuticles, body, hair, everything.”
Shark FlexStyle Hair Dryer & Styling System
Shark’s hairstyling system might look strikingly similar to its viral competitors, but it’ll cost you hundreds less. Even Lisa Vanderpump’s taken note, called the multitasking gadget “fantastic” in a recent Page Six Style interview.
Hero Cosmetics Mighty Patch
Alix Earle’s a longtime fan of Mighty Patch; she’s posted several TikToks with the brand over the years, calling the pimple-fighting patches her “ultimate skin hack.”
L’Oréal Paris Voluminous Noir Balm Volumizing Mascara
Kyle Richards can’t stop talking about this beauty buy. She’s shouted it out in several Amazon livestreams, even going as far as to say it’s the only mascara she uses.
“It really is just a miracle, this stuff,” she once raved.
Tatcha The Dewy Skin Cream
It’s rare to find deals on this rich hydrator Selena Gomez shouted out in a 2020 Vogue video.
“It’s so thick and yummy that you actually don’t have to use that much of it,” she gushed.
Bliss Block Star Sheer Tinted Daily Sunscreen
Wondering what beauty products Kathy Hilton finds hunky dory? In a Strategist interview earlier this year, the “RHOBH” alum said she uses this Bliss SPF on her hands and face.
“I have very sensitive skin … I have tried so many different sunscreens, and it seems like somehow, the sun still gets to me,” she explained. “This one’s the best at protecting my skin … I love the way it goes on.”
Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Intensive Exfoliating Treatment
Long before becoming a royal, Meghan Markle documented her beauty favorites on her now-defunct blog, the Tig.
Her picks included this exfoliator, which she wrote will “do the trick for that homegrown glow” if you can’t make it into Somerville’s LA clinic.
Bioderma Sensibio H2O Micellar Water
What do Drew Barrymore and Gwyneth Paltrow have in common (besides their leading lady status, that is)? Both have both been linked to this makeup removing must-have, with the latter raving on Goop, “It’s unscented, doesn’t dry your skin or sting, and gets rid of all your makeup with a few swipes. You’re left with soft, clean skin.”
Solawave 4-in-1 Skincare Wand
Before it’s time to wave goodbye to Amazon’s Black Friday markdowns, score savings on Solawave’s celeb-approved skincare gadgets. Famous fans include Sydney Sweeney and Katy Perry, the latter of whom says she stole hers from her husband Orlando Bloom’s Golden Globes gift bag.

“RHONY” star Brynn Whitfield told us she discovered this device from co-star Jenna Lyons and now uses it “to depuff when I’m hungover.”

Another “Housewife” staple? This cult-favorite body lotion, which Melissa Gorga told us is her “absolute favorite” for “a little bit of that glow” on the daily.
Physicians Formula Murumuru Butter Bronzer
Sofia Richie’s been raving about this bronzer for years, name-checking it in a 2019 Vogue interview and a 2023 TikTok re-creating her wedding makeup.
Laura Geller Serum Blush Cheek Tint
Kyle Richards is a major fan of Laura Geller, recently telling Amazon Live viewers this blush stick “glows.”
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Multi-Use Concealer
Bethenny Frankel isn’t concealing her love for this budget-friendly beauty buy. She included it in a TikTok outlining which products earned a spot in the “very coveted real estate” of her beauty collection, calling it “really good.”
Wavytalk 5-in-1 Curling Iron Set
Richards also spotlighted this majorly marked-down tool in an Amazon Live, saying, “I tend to go through these things, my daughters take them.”
Black Friday FAQs for savvy shoppers
When is Thanksgiving 2024?
Turkey Day this year falls on Thursday, November 28, 2024. Get ready to feast to fuel your shopping marathon!
When is Black Friday 2024?
The biggest sales of the year kick off on Friday, November 29, 2024. Shoppers have just 26 days between Thanksgiving and Christmas for a shortened holiday shopping period — so plan wisely.
Are early Black Friday deals actually worth it?
We only highlight deals we think are worth it. Particularly for hot items that are at high sell-out risk, we recommend shopping early and taking advantage of pre-Thanksgiving discounts on big-ticket gifts like the cult favorite Dyson Airwrap, Kim Kardashian’s Beats, celeb-loved Ugg boots and more.
Can I shop Black Friday sales online?
Most stores and retailers now offer both in-store and online Black Friday sales, with matching discounts for those that want to shop IRL or virtually.
Why is it called “Black Friday”?
Despite being a great day for the economy, Black Friday still symbolizes the dark side of American consumerism, drawing memories of violent crowds competing for limited merchandise. However, with the advent of internet shopping, retailers and e-tailers continue to see record-breaking sales without the morbid mob mentality kicking off the holiday shopping season.
When is Cyber Monday 2024?
Monday, December 2, 2024 will be all about online shopping at retailers across the internet drop prices for Cyber Monday.
Which is better: Black Friday or Cyber Monday?
It depends! Some, though not all, retailers approach Black Friday and Cyber Monday differently, offering discounts on varying brands and products over the post-Thanksgiving weekend. Some stores use Cyber Monday as an opportunity to drop further discounts on on-sale items.
But beware: if you wait for Cyber Monday to make your purchases, you do risk the chance of products selling out.
Where can I find the best deals?
