Whenever there’s a major sale, like Amazon’s current Big Spring Sale, you can fall into one of two camps: people who pick up the essentials while they’re cheap, or people who opt for splurge-worthy treats with slightly less of the splurge. I’m firmly in the second category, unfortunately for my wallet, and fortunately for you (if you fall into that camp as well). Here are the beauty and self-care items I’m eyeing during the Big Spring Sale.
Best Big Spring Sale deals on hair products
Hair care is expensive, but quality products are necessary to maintain the integrity of your strands. For now, you don’t have to choose between affordability and quality.
I have been wanting a small heated blowout brush for weeks now and the Wavytalk 5-in-1 curling set going on sale for $42.49 (regularly $53.99) might be the thing that finally pushes me. This brand is big on TikTok, and with this set, not only do you get the very-trendy blowout brush, but four other curling attachments in different sizes, too, which is space- and money-saving for those of us who want a different sized curl every time we style.
Another brand that’s huge on social media but usually out of my price range is GHD, but their viral Curve iron is down to $174.25 from $209.99 right now—a perfect upgrade for when you’ve perfected soft, beachy curls on your old iron and want to level up to something more exquisite, this is easy to use and made to create long-lasting waves.
I love rotating curling irons in general just for the novelty, if not for the ease of use, so Drybar’s 3-Day Bender going on sale from $149 to $134.10 is intriguing to me. This is a good option if you are low on time when you do your hair or have trouble getting the hang of traditional irons because it does most of the work for you.
Hot Tools curling irons are synonymous with quality, but anyone who knows that also know they’re pricey (for a reason). Huge, blown-out curls are really in right now and you can get a Hot Tools Gold Jumbo iron for just $28.99 compared to the usual $59.99.
You can’t use heat on your hair every day, and some people prefer to never use it at all. Kitsch, arguably the biggest name in heatless curlers right now, has their XL Heatless Curling Set on sale for $15.99 instead of $19.99, so if you’re interested in trying overnight styles, start here. As someone who has tried a good five or six brands, I can say Kitsch is actually one of the ones that is decently comfortable to sleep in because the rod is softer than the cheaper competition.
Whether sleeping in a roller or not, I refuse to let my head touch the pillow without a satin bonnet on and have done so for a year now. The difference it’s made for my hair is unreal: It’s softer, less damaged, and overall healthier than it was when I was sleeping in a ponytail and letting it drag all over my pillowcase. The Yanibest bonnet is Big Spring Sale’d down to $9.58 from $12.98.
The Slopehill ionic hair dryer is, according to TikTok reviews, the best Dyson dupe you can get and, thanks to the Big Spring Sale, is $31.33 instead of $39.99. It comes with magnetic attachments for easy styling and is both powerful and lightweight.
Best Big Spring Deals for face and body
Devices and tools for the maintenance of your skin are also popular—and expensive—so if you’ve been looking to buy, now might be the time for these.
The COSRX snail mucin is a viral and covetable must-have that helps skin recover and stay hydrated. Usually, it’s $25, but right now, it’s just $13, which is a major steal for something that is a beloved best-seller with almost 79,000 perfect reviews. Whether you’re worried about dryness, irritation, or aging, this regenerative product should be added to your routine.
I’ve been using a NuFace Mini microcurrent device for two years and love it so much that I’m looking to upgrade to a bigger and better one. The FOREO Bear has been on my list of possibilities but just moved to the top spot because it’s $213.85 right now (regularly $329). With consistent use, these devices really do make a noticeable difference in the firmness of skin and reduce fine lines; plus, you always look nice and sculpted right after a session.
The Medicube Age-R Booster H device has gone viral enough to get a Vogue writeup about how much people love it and its ability to make skin look more radiant and glowy through electrical stimulation. The problem is it’s usually $299. The solution is that right now, it’s $218.27. If it’s good enough for Hailey Beiber, it’s good enough for me. That’s what I always say, anyway.
Finally, I was excited to see the Ulike laser hair removal device on the Big Spring Sale list because it’s been all over my social feeds lately. Every review claims it really works for removing hair painlessly and somewhat permanently, with results in three weeks, on average, but $329 seemed like a lot to spend. Its new sale price of $259 is a little more reasonable, especially when you consider how much you spend on razors and shave gel (or, worse, waxes) every year.
