When you think of Black Friday, you likely associate the shopping extravaganza with tech deals with the memories of customers fighting over TVs burned permanently in your mind.
Beauty is a big business. The global industry generated $579.20 billion in revenue in 2023, and is expected to reach over $716 billion by 2025 according to a report by Help Lama.
As such, it’s not just celebrities looking to get in on the action by launching endorsed collections. Dermatologists, makeup artists and content creators all want a piece of the beauty pie – the result is a lot of options for consumers and new brands popping up left, right and centre.
It also encourages the aforementioned to ignite trends and push buzz ingredients to the forefront. It’s about selling products, of course, but also helping people ease their concerns and give them confidence in the process. But one of the results of this is quick-fire trends that seem to burn out as quickly as they catch on and can put a serious dent in your bank balance.
That’s where Black Friday comes in. You can test, trial and sample to your heart’s content without putting so much strain on your pennies as there is rarely a beauty brand on the market that doesn’t get involved in the sales action – across skin, hair, makeup and fragrance.
This is also the time to stock up on your Christmas gifting where you will not only find individual products with very attractive reductions but also gifts with purchases, bundles and sets ready to be placed under the tree.

Why is it called Black Friday?
Black Friday is always the day following Thanksgiving, which takes place on the last Thursday in November each year like clockwork. The sale day that follows is known as Black Friday due to the chaos that ensued back in the 60s as shoppers rushed to secure a bargain on the first day of the Christmas shopping season.
