Editor’s Picks (At a Glance)

The Best Prime Day Skincare Sales

Paula’s Choice: 20% Off Site-Wide + Free Shipping

• Deal: Get 20% off site-wide at Paula’s Choice plus free shipping on all orders.
• Dates: Friday, July 8 to Friday, July 15.
• Promo code: HOWL
• Editor’s picks: The 10% Niacinamide Booster is one of the best niacinamide serums—it’s completely weightless and doesn’t cause pilling. If you have stubborn acne, the Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant is one of the strongest salicylic acid treatments (and the brand’s bestseller!). I also recommend the C15 Super Booster as an affordable vitamin C serum with 15% L-ascorbic acid.

REN Clean Skincare: 20% Off Site-Wide

• Deal: Get 20% off site-wide at REN Clean Skincare (excluding kits and duos) plus free shipping when you spend $30+.
• Dates: Friday, July 8 to Friday, July 15.
• Promo code: HOWL20
• Editor’s picks: Clean Screen Mineral SPF 30 Mattifying Face Sunscreen is always in my sunscreen rotation because it has such great protection plus a lightweight, matte texture. You might remember Evercalm Gentle Cleansing Gel from one. of my recent routines—it’s a great gel cleanser for all skin types. For your body, the AHA Smart Renewal Body Serum exfoliates with lactic acid while it moisturizes.

First Aid Beauty: 20% Off Site-Wide + Free Shipping

• Deal: Get 20% off site-wide at First Aid Beauty (excluding new arrivals, kits and sale products) plus free shipping.
• Dates: Monday, July 11 to Monday, July 18.
• Promo code: FRIENDZ
• Editor’s picks: The brand’s new Mineral Sunscreen Zinc Oxide Broad Spectrum SPF 30 is one of my top sunscreen recommendations, especially if you have sensitive skin. I always recommend the Face Cleanser for all skin types, as it’s so effective yet gentle. Then there’s the FAB Skin Lab Retinol Serum, which has 0.25% pure retinol and is ideal for anyone who is new to retinol or has sensitive skin.

iHerb: 20% Off Site-Wide

• Deal: Get 20% off site-wide at iHerb (US orders only).
• Dates: Friday, July 8 to Friday, July 15.
• Promo code: HOWL20
• Editor’s picks: It’s no secret that I love COSRX BHA Blackhead Power Liquid, the best BHA treatment for exfoliating, brightening and controlling breakouts. I also swear by Benton Aloe Propolis Soothing Gel, a light, non-sticky, aloe-based gel moisturizer that you can use on both your face and body. One of my newest discoveries is Idealove The Balancing Act Aloe Propolis BHA Toner, a fabulous (and so affordable!) toner with all my favourite ingredients.

Dermstore: 20% Off Selected Products

• Deal: Get 20% off selected products at Dermstore.
• Dates: Tuesday, July 12 to Wednesday, July 13.
• Promo code: JOY
• Editor’s picks: Allies of Skin Prebiotics & Niacinamide Pore Refining Booster is my all-time favourite niacinamide serum (which actually doubles as a lightweight moisturizer). For a nightly retinoid serum, Verso Super Facial Serum is a great choice because it’s stronger than retinol (thanks to the key ingredient, retinyl retinoate) and also less irritating. I also suggest The Nue Co. Barrier Culture Moisturizer if you’re looking for a lightweight, sensitive skin-friendly moisturizer with barrier-supporting ingredients.
