People / Reese Herrington

Some people get excited abouttech dealsand savings on home goods whenCyber Mondayrolls around, but as abeauty-obsessed shopping writer, I look forward to discounts on makeup and skincare every year.

While there were hundreds of people on my social media feed sharing deals on their favorite products this weekend, I wanted to look to the experts to see which ones are really worth buying. Whether it’s a celebrity makeup artist revealing their secret product for photoshoot-worthy bronzed skin (ahem,Martha Stewart’s iconicSports Illustrated Swimsuitcover) or a retinol cream that our writer tested for three weeks straight, I did my due diligence to decipher which on-sale products you should pick up while deals are hot.

Since her days as a cast member on theReal Housewives of New York City,Bethenny Frankelhas become a makeup guru in her own right, stacking up drugstore beauty buys against luxury products in her off-the-cuff review videos and deeming which are “at the level” (the star’s stamp of approval).

One of many budget-friendly buys that Frankel has praised is this anti-aging concealer from Maybelline. It’s a crease-resistant, easy-to-blend liquid thatthe newly-minted influencer says is“just really good.” It comes in 18 shades and was also ranked as one of thebest concealers for mature skinthat we tried in our PEOPLE Tested lab.

What’s better than a two-in-one product (especially when it’s on sale)? Merit’s Flush Balm is a cream blush, which not only has some of the chicest packaging we’ve ever seen, but does double-time as a glowy blush and hydrating lip cream.

Cameron Diaz is a known fan of the balm, warming up her cheeks and lips with the shade Raspberry Beret in aget-ready-with-me videoon Instagram. Celebrity makeup artistKindra Mannhas also made up her famous clients with products from the brand, using the equally-discountedClean Lash Mascaraon Mandy Moore for the2022 Critics Choice Awardsto achieve her red carpet-ready lashes.

The Inkey List Retinol Serum

$13Buy Now for $10

If retinol sounds a little intimidating to you, you’re not alone, which is why one of our writers who specializes in skincaretested The Inkey List’s starter retinol serum for three weeksto figure out whether or not it actually works. Spoiler alert: for the price and results, they gave it a stamp of approval.

They appreciated how effectively it was able to target acne, scarring, and even the very slightest sign of wrinkles while still hydrating their skin. While this is already a relatively inexpensive product at just $13, the brand’s Cyber Monday sale knocked a few dollars off to make it even more appealing.

But the deals don’t stop there. Scroll on to see the rest of our expert-recommended picks that are on sale today.
