For 25 years, Dermstore has made it its mission to give consumers direct access to professional-grade skin care, prestige brands and affordable favorites, all in one trusted, dermatologist-founded, expertly-curated place. And while it’s known to throw a good sale a few times a year, none are as big as the annual Dermstore Anniversary Sale—thousands of products (even luxury brands like Augustinus Bader and SkinMedica) are up to 25 percent off now through August 18 with the code CHEERS.
There are so many truly magnificent deals to choose from this year, so I’ve curated some of the best ones for you, and categorized them by skin, hair and makeup to make it even easier. Pro tip: be sure to double check product pages for extra gifts on top of the discount; I saw a ton of brands that are giving away free product.
Skin-Care Deals
No surprise here, but some of the best of the bunch can be found in the skin-care category. We’ve written about every one of the products below before; PCA Skin’s Hyaluronic Acid Boost is one of our editors’-favorite medical-grade skin-care products and Sunday Riley’s Good Genes is this year’s NewBeauty award-winner for Best Lactic Acid Serum. Want a dermatologist-recommended SPF that doubles as complexion-perfecting skin tint? EltaMD‘s got you covered. Speaking of dermatologist-approved, SkinMedica’s TNS Advanced+ Serum isn’t cheap, but it’s at least cheaper now, and absolutely worth the investment for what it can do to smooth fine lines and wrinkles. It’s also a great time to stock up on more-affordable favorites like La Roche-Posay’s Cicaplast balm (my favorite cream to apply after retinol) and Paula’s Choice longtime cult-classic, BHA Liquid Exfoliant.
Hair Deals
We’ve hit the goldmine for hair care. I couldn’t help but notice a lot of celebrity hair favorites included, like Jennifer Garner’s go-to hair oil and a made-for-Audrey-Hepburn conditioning treatment. Luxury brand Oribe has over a hundred of their products on sale; I’ve got their Gold Lust shampoo and conditioner duo already in my cart. If you’ve been using a lot of product to ward off humidity this summer, a good clarifying shampoo is a must. Olaplex’s No.4C is now under $25.
Makeup Deals
Did you know Dermstore is a great spot to find classic makeup, clean makeup, makeup with SPF, dermatologist-created makeup and more? RMS Beauty, Tarte, Dermablend and NUDESTIX are just a handful of brands we love I noticed on sale. (RMS’ Living Luminizer has been my absolute favorite highlighter for almost a decade.) Grab Tarte’s Tartlette eyeshadow palette—it’s the only one you’ll ever need—and Colorescience’s Color Balm with SPF 50 for a sun-kissed pop of cheek color, sans the sun damage.
