The beauty world has seen a massive expansion in recent years with new brands popping up left, right and centre - and for the makeup, hair and skin aficionados among us, it can get expensive.
Celebrities are jumping into the action as well as impressive innovation in environmentally-conscious packing, clean formulas and new ingredients promising to change our regimes forever.
There are also just helpful gadgets like electric toothbrushes and hair dryers that are designed to make our lives that extra bit easier.
This Amazon Prime Day, it’s the discounts across all beauty categories from fragrance to facial tools that have caught our attention. While we will be upgrading our laptops, TVs, Apple products and more, our bathroom cabinets should not be forgotten in the midst of the sales action.
Amazon stocks some of the biggest names on the market including Oral-B, BaByliss, Philips, Foreo, Elemis, Neal’s Yard Remedies and many more which are slashed in price during the two day reduction extravaganza.
When is Amazon Prime Day 2022?
For the first event of 2022, Amazon Prime Day took place on July 12-13 but a second event is en route - get ready to top up your favourite products from October 11-12 in Amazon’s Early Access Sale.
Do you need a Prime account to get the deals?
In short, yes. To get in on the incredible deals, you need to be a Prime customer. The monthly subscription costs just £7.99 a month (or just £3.99 for students) or you can pay an annual fee of £79 saving bang for your buck - this is a bargain hunt after all. This will not only give you access to Prime Day but also to unlimited free next day delivery - and same day depending on the product and your location. There’s also Prime Video, ebooks, Amazon Music and more to make the most of. If you’re not ready to take the plunge, opt for the free 30-day trial to test it out before you buy.
What type of deals are available?
During the sales event, there will be fake tan, skincare, hair, fragrance and gadgets available at unrivalled prices that you won’t even find during Black Friday later in the year. Stock up on your hero products while you can.
These will come in three formats; the traditional deals for the duration of the event, the deals of the day and the lightning deals that will encourage you to snap up the products while you can in the few hours that they will be reduced.
What deals on beauty were there last year?
To say that the deals were extensive in the beauty category last year would be an extreme understatement. There was up to 64 per cent off some of the priciest models of electric toothbrushes as well as the Philips Lumea Prestige IPL Cordless Hair Removal Device. Brands like Color Wow, Pureology, Isle of Paradise, St Tropez, OPI, Piz Buin and Foreo were all massively discounted.
What deals can we expect this year?
Amazon promises that this year’s event will be even bigger and better so get those browsing fingers flexing.
