dyson supersonic
Amazon

23% off a Dyson blow dryer...

This is a smart time to get a Dyson hair product. This coveted hair dryer is designed to keep hair protected from high heat, so it's much better for your hair than your old-school one. It also has five attachments to suit different hair types, from straight to coily. Worth the investment, especially if you snag it on sale today. ($329.99, Amazon)

l'occitane shower oil
Amazon

20% off our favorite shower oil...

If you know us, you know we're in the cult of L'Occitane Almond Shower Oil. It has a silky consistency that creates a fine foam when it hits water, so you get a nice, satisfying clean without stripping your skin. It also works better than shaving cream, pro tip. The best part is the scent, a not-too-sweet combination of almonds and florals. ($23.20 Amazon)

timeline nutrition the serum
Timeline Nutrition

40% off Timeline’s The Serum…

You don’t need a fancy name when the product is this good. The Serum targets your skin cells directly to combat signs of aging and fine lines. It’s quick-absorbing, super lightweight, and works seamlessly with any skincare routine. Add it to your cart to start seeing results in as little as 15 days. (Originally $280, Now $168)*

Buy it
anastasia brow wiz
Amazon

40% off a classic brow pencil...

"Brow pencils" are synonymous with "Anastasia Brow Wiz." The fine, angled point mimics brow hairs for a realistic look, and the waxy consistency stays put. Plus, it comes in a great range of colors, including hard-to-find ones like gray and auburn. There's a reason it's in pretty much every pro makeup kit. ($15 Amazon)

Buy it
mario badescu drying lotion
Amazon

40% off Mario Badescu Drying Lotion...

We started using this Drying Lotion in high school, and we still turn to it for our most stubborn breakouts. The combination of calamine, sulfur, zinc, and salicylic acid works like magic to dry out spots and calm redness overnight. Just remember not to shake the bottle. ($10.80, Amazon)

Buy it
LANEIGE Lip Glowy Balm
Amazon

30% off your favorite Laneige lip mask in a tube…

As much as we love our lip mask, when we’re on the go, we prefer stashing this tube version in our bags. It has the same silky texture as the mask but gives a glowy sheen to your lips. This’ll keep them hydrated all day, trust us. ($13.30, Amazon)

Buy it
COSRX Snail Mucin 96% Power Repairing Essence
Amazon

48% off the snail mucin essence we swear by…

This essence just makes our skin better, and we love layering it with serums and moisturizer to keep our skin plump in the winter. Use it before moisturizer for a glowy (but not sweaty) look, and over time, it heals imperfections. Believe the hype, people. ($12.99, Amazon)

Buy it
Ursa Major Essential Face Wipes
Amazon

20% off face wipes that help prep your skin…

One of the best beauty hacks we’ve learned recently is to use an exfoliating wipe before applying makeup for glowy, smooth skin. These are made with fruit-derived glycolic acid to gently remove dead skin and aloe and green tea to soothe and hydrate. They’re also great to keep in your gym bag and swiping on your face and body after a workout. ($20.80, Amazon)

Buy it
Grace & Stella Under Eye Masks
Amazon

34% off gold under-eye masks…

These gold under-eye masks are a godsend on mornings after a less-than-stellar night’s sleep. They’re soaked in a serum made with hyaluronic acid, sea moss, and glycerin that feels like a glass of water for your under-eyes, and we see a visible difference in puffiness and dark circles. Bring them along on vacation, too — you’ll want them after your nights out. ($9.95+, Amazon)

Buy it
Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette
Amazon

30% off a mini Urban Decay eyeshadow palette…

This mini version of the iconic Naked palette has all the neutrals to create the perfect demure eye look for fall. The taupe and brown shadows complement every skin tone and eye color, and the smaller-sized palette is great for traveling. ($24.50, Amazon)

Buy it
Essie Gel Couture Longwear Nail Polish Kit
Amazon

34% off an Essie nail polish duo…

This two-step set will give you a salon-quality manicure at home. Just swipe on the colored coat, then use the quick-drying top coat, no UV light required. The raisin brown shade is just right for fall. ($17.29, Amazon)

Buy it
Foreo Luna 4 Mini
Amazon

45% off the Foreo Luna 4 Mini…

We forgot how much we love exfoliating with our Foreo device until we noticed one in Emily’s bathroom while watching Emily in Paris. It’s great for gently exfoliating even the most sensitive skin, can be used with any cleanser, and degunks our pores after a long day of wearing makeup. ($153.45, Amazon)

Buy it
Fur Ingrown Microdart Patches
Amazon

20% off ingrown-removing patches we always have on hand…

If I could convince you to buy one thing from this Prime Day, it would be these patches. I’m amazed every time the microdarts penetrate the skin to remove an ingrown hair like magic. I even use them on beneath-the-surface acne, which I talk about here. I’ll be stocking up, and you should, too. ($16, Amazon)

Buy it
IGK First Class Dry Shampoo
Amazon

30% off the dry shampoo that gives us serious volume…

This dry shampoo is not like other girls. It’s made with charcoal that absorbs oil and refreshes our hair like we’ve never seen before. It lifts our roots and smells good to boot. We’ll be keeping this one in rotation. ($22.40, Amazon)

Buy it
anua heartleaf toner
Amazon

30% off the TikTok-viral Anua Heartleaf Toner…

It seems like all the skincare girlies are using this K-beauty toner these days. It has a high concentration of heartleaf extract that soothes, hydrates, and reduces redness. It’s also safe for all skin types. ($23.70, Amazon)

Buy it
canopy humidifier
Amazon

36% off a humidifier that doubles as aromatherapy…

Say goodbye to clunky, heavy humidifiers that take up a ton of space. This one from Canopy has a super-sleek design, comes in three muted shades, and even has dishwasher-safe parts. It’ll help keep your skin hydrated and alleviate cold, flu, and allergy symptoms. Plus, it comes with essential oils to create a soothing, spa-like atmosphere at home. ($110, Amazon)
