Amazon Prime Day is a good reminder to take stock of what’s running low in your supply of makeup and grooming tools. October Prime Day is coming to a close, and the best beauty deals will disappear tonight at midnight. Here’s your cue to lock in the numerous discounts across makeup, skincare, and hair care.
Moisturizers are at the top of our Amazon wish list in preparation for the cold, dry months ahead. “I use my Aestura Atobarrier 365 Cream sparingly until I can restock when it goes on sale for Prime Day,” says associate style editor Gabrielle Chase. “It’s the only formula I’ve used that keeps my extremely dry skin feeling hydrated for over 24 hours.”
One item we see pop off each Prime Day is teeth whitening kits, particularly Crest’s 3D Whitestrips (now 35% off). For tips on choosing the best kit for your smile goals, see our guide to the best Crest Whitestrip Prime Day deals.

FAQs
Is Amazon Prime Day a good time to shop for beauty?
Along with household names like Dyson and Crest, you’ll even find luxury brands like Caudalie and ISDIN participating in the event. Whether you need a new electric razor or have your eye on a cult-favorite lip balm, chances are you’ll find it at a better price during the last hours of the event.
What are the best beauty deals of Prime Day this year?
If there’s one thing worth investing in this Prime Day, it’s hair tools. They’re often pricey products and rarely see discounts throughout the year. Our favorite Dyson Airwrap dupe already comes at a great price, but this year’s Shark FlexStyle Prime Day deal knocks it down to $249.99.
A regular top seller we see each Prime Day is teeth whitening kits. We expect Crest Whitestrips to be a popular item through the remainder of the day.
