I’ve covered Black Friday for three years, and these are the deals worth knowing


“This year, the discounts seem to be dropping earlier than ever. I’ve already spotted a £80 saving on the Dyson Airwrap, and a 15% discount on the Shark SpeedStyle Pro FLEX Build Your Own Hair Dryer System.”

“I always wait for Black Friday to restock my beauty and skincare staples — so I’m pleased to see that the Rare Beauty Liquid Touch Foundation is already reduced from £29 to £14.50, and REFY’s Face Collection trio is now £10 less. It’s the perfect time to bag a few early beauty bargains before the real chaos begins.”

Fun fact: ghd went live with its Black Friday sale before November had even begun. But now Shark, Dyson and Sephora have joined ranks, offering up to 37% off a selection of hair dryers, hair straighteners, curling irons and hot air brushes.

Best Black Friday fashion deals

“I’m definitely trying to shop more sustainably during this year’s event, so I’m looking to fill some wardrobe gaps by seeking out key pieces that’ll actually last,” says Glamour’s fashion expert, Georgia Trodd.

We’ve already spotted some great sales on right now — Lounge has up to 70% off, SKIMS has dropped prices sitewide by up to 30%, and ASOS is currently offering up to 25% off big brands. See some of Georgia’s top early sale picks below.

Our ASOS Black Friday sale favourites:

Topshop Belted Long Line Formal Coat

adidas Originals SL 72 OG Double Laced Trainers

Topshop Barrel Mid Rise Jean

ASOS DESIGN Cocoon Sleeve Collarless Blazer Co-ord

Lounge Black Friday deals not to miss:

Lounge has been one of the best lingerie brands I’ve shopped at for some time now, so when they started offering wardrobe essentials outside of their usual negligee remit earlier this year, my interest piqued. And now, a large selection of the on-trend knitwear, autumn jackets, suede boots and loafers are discounted, some by as much as 70%.

Save when you shop in the meantime with these Lounge discount codes at checkout.

What we’re shopping in the Skims Black Friday sale:

You see, SKIMS rarely has a sale (literally only twice a year) – so when Kim Kardashian’s brand does put the effort into discounting its items, you know the discounts are going to be good. Everything from the pyjama sets to loungewear and, yes, the viral Nipple Bra is now available with 30% for a (very) limited time.

Jewellery deals to shop this Black Friday:

From diamonds and solid gold pieces to fun fashion jewels, the Black Friday sales serve as the perfect opportunity to invest in some sparkly new accessories for yourself and pick up a few of the best Christmas gifts on the way. Personally? All this inspo is being sent directly to my boyfriend. Hint hint.
