Annual sales extravaganza Black Friday is mere days away, beginning on Friday 24 November and running right through to Monday 27 November (also known as Cyber Monday). The sales finale is an ideal opportunity to bag bargains across all sorts of products, and we’re looking forward to nabbing some Cyber Monday beauty and perfume deals.
As the name suggests, Cyber Monday is traditionally an online-only event. Marking the final day of the sales, it often offers final reductions and savings across everything from home appliances and tech to TVs, air fryers, mattresses and more. The big-name retailers and brands showcasing significant discounts usually include Amazon, Boots, John Lewis, Argos, Currys, Dyson, Ninja, Ugg and Very.
With only a week to get organised and plan which products to keep an eye on, our expert shopping team is here to give you the Cyber Monday 2023 lowdown.
Look no further for everything you need to know, from the savings we spotted in last year’s sale to the Cyber Monday beauty and perfume deals we expect to see this year. Plus, we’ve rounded up a few early bargains to bag now, ahead of the event.
When is Cyber Monday 2023?
This year, Cyber Monday lands on 27 November. It’s the last instalment of the four-day sales weekend, which begins on Black Friday (24 November).
What were the best Cyber Monday deals on beauty last year?
Last year’s Cyber Monday beauty deals included savings at Amazon, Boots, Cult Beauty, Lookfantastic and more.
We spotted £7.50 off Mac’s studio fix fluid foundation (£34, Maccosmetics.co.uk), 20 per cent off Huda Beauty’s easy bake loose baking and setting powder (£34, Sephora.co.uk), and there was up to £75 off at Charlotte Tilbury, using a Cyber Monday discount code.
On the skincare front, you could get a whopping £46 off the 111Skin rose quartz exfoliating mask (£115, Cultbeauty.co.uk), while fragrance steals included Jean Paul Gaultier’s classique for women eau de toilette (£76.30, Boots.com), which had a 40 per cent discount.
What deals can we expect on beauty and perfume on Cyber Monday?
We’re expecting site-wide discounts at major beauty and perfume retailers, including Sephora and Molton Brown, with the former offering up to 70 per cent off brands such as Isle Of Paradise in 2022, and Molton Brown serving up 25 per cent off everything last year.
It’s safe to say we’ll be keeping an eye out for the best deals from hair-tool brands such as BaByliss, ghd and Shark, too.
Early Cyber Monday beauty and perfume deals
Elemis pro-collagen cleansing balm: Was £48, now £36.80, Lookfantastic.com
Elemis pro-collagen cleansing balm is a cult skincare classic and it currently comes with a saving of almost 20 per cent at Lookfantastic. The multi-tasking balm melts onto skin and effectively removes make-up, while also leaving a lingering moisturising smoothness. Nourishing ingredients include starflower oil, elderberry oil and padina pavonica, and the balm turns into a milky texture during cleansing use. It can even be applied as a treatment mask. In their review of the balm, our writer said their skin was left feeling “soft and smooth, with a subtle glow that you often find after having a facial”.
Cloud Nine the original iron pro: Was £249, now £189, Cloudninehair.com
Cloud Nine’s pro hair straightener features premium details, including variable temperature control, ceramic plates, a 360-degree swivel cord and a protective guard. Plus, you can now bag a sleek saving, thanks to this £60 discount. Choose between pink or white, as the deal is available on both colourways.
Vera Wang princess eau de toilette: Was £64, now £44.80, Sephora.co.uk
Looking for a fresh bottle of designer perfume? Vera Wang princess eau de toilette is currently reduced by £20 at Sephora. The floral and fruity scent combines notes of apricot, apple, vanilla and tuberose, and it’s presented in a chic glass bottle complete with a gold crown. This could save you cash on a special someone’s Christmas present or be a bargain treat for yourself.
