ICYMI: The Dermstore Anniversary Sale has been in full swing for over a week, but it's coming to a close on August 17 at 2:59 AM ET, so it's your last chance to restock your beauty cabinet with buzzy products ahead of the new season. With less than 48 hours left to shop, all you need to know is there are two ways to take advantage of the sale before it ends: For starters, you can score up to 25 percent off *almost* everything with coupon code CHEERS. Secondly, if you're a Dermstore Rewards member, you can earn three times the points on a vast selection of skincare, makeup and hair products. And more points = more money back to spend at Dermstore at a later date (BTW, it's free to join).

But since you're probably after those big discounts one last time, you'll be glad to know that the 25 percent off section is still poppin' with deals on our go-to Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream (from $92; $69), Peter Thomas Roth Instant Firmx eye cream ($38; $29) and The Nue Co. Magnesium Ease ($38; $29), to name a few.

As for the 20 percent off section, the biggest buy remains to be the Obagi Medical Professional-C serum ($142; $114). Buyers swear it helps to brighten skin, minimize fine lines *and* improve one's overall complexion in one fell swoop. But you can also shop categories—skincarehaircaremakeup and devices—to beat the clock, which is ticking fast, may we add. But no worries, we've got you covered with the 14 best beauty deals to hop on before the sale ends.

9 Editors Share Their Ultimate Beauty Ick—From Foundation Flooding to Bunnywashing


Probably one of the most highly coveted skin care products out there, this super rich—yet surprisingly lightweight—face cream uses groundbreaking stem cell technology to help your skin regenerate, along with hyaluronic acid for plumping hydration. Many reviewers say they've noticed a reduced appearance of dark spots and a firmer, smoother texture after using it. Meanwhile, one PureWow editor credited it for clearing her skin. "I saw results pretty quickly and assumed it was a placebo effect, if anything," she shared in her review. "But much to my amazement, my skin (which breaks out often) was radiant, blemish-free and so much more hydrated after just a few days of use." What she didn't mention is that it's available for as low as $69 right now (which is *super* rare).

While the Sunday Riley Good Genes lactic acid treatment is new to some, it's an oldie but goodie to us. In fact, ever since it came into our lives, we've had better skin days, and that's all because of its genius formula featuring 5% lactic acid, licorice, lemongrass and aloe. Together they supposedly work to slough off dead skin cells, clear complexions and boost collagen production. If there's any product you'll definitely want to buy before the sale ends, it's this baby. You'll thank us later.

Fit for a queen, these golden eye masks have all the qualities of a luxurious, spa-worthy pick-me-up. For one, they're infused with aloe leaf, calendula, amino acids and peptides, which are supposed to soften and relax your undereye area to help you say goodbye to dark circles. And you only need to leave them on for ten to 15 minutes for them to work their magic. In that case, we may just have to scoop up a couple of the six-count packs so we never run out.

Need some R&R in your life? Try a spritz of this cult-fave spray, which is formulated to deliver a calming effect to help wind you down both physically and mentally. "This works," one buyer shares. "[It offers] instant relief from muscle aches and pains. I frequently have neck and back pain. I have tried so many products and some work, but this one works every time." Ingredients like magnesium and lavender oil, which boast the proven benefits of reducing anxiety and improving sleep, can take all the credit.

All you need to know is a PureWow editor swears this oil transformed her skin in just *two* months. You can read her full review, but here's the rundown: It not only helped brighten her skin, but also minimized her dark spots, thanks to a high dose of vitamin C (15 percent, to be exact). According to the brand, additional hero ingredients like golden turmeric and cranberry seed oil work together to hydrate skin for a more youthful appearance. Better yet, when you use this product in the morning, it gives you a glowing base to start your makeup.

Whether or not you've seen the viral TikTok video showing what this stuff could do in under three minutes, you'll want to scoop it up now while it's under $30. That's because when this vitamin C and E formula is swiped under the eyes, it can help to reduce crow's feet, fine lines and puffiness in record time. Specifically, one reviewer explains, "You can feel your skin tightening within seconds, and the effect lasts all day." That's all we needed to hear.

At this point, you probably know this PureWow favorite holds a special place in our hearts. We consistently wax poetic about how it made our lashes look longer and thicker in just weeks with its blend of vitamins, peptides and amino acids. Even better, one tube should last up to three months, and most buyers say you'll start noticing results within four weeks. But here's why one reviewer is obsessed: "This thing has worked wonders for me in the three months I have used it...It works and does not irritate my eyes AT ALL. So impressed with this." P.S. We're also fans of the Meghan Markle-approved RevitaLash Advanced eyelash conditioner, and it's on sale for as low as $80 (from $100).

You can postpone that facelift consultation so long as you've got this device. To put it simply, ever since we tested out the larger NuFace Trinity device and hydrating aqua gel—which lifted our brows, sculpted our cheekbones and diminished our forehead wrinkles—we've been dying to get our hands on this smaller version. It essentially does the same thing, minimizing puffiness and making skin look snatched using microcurrent technology, except this baby is compact and convenient for travel, so you can stay looking lifted anywhere (even on vacation).

Your self-care ritual will never be the same once you get in on this foot peel that, as its name suggests, leaves your feet feeling baby-soft. Better yet, you can treat your feet during your Netflix binge, as you just have to slip on the boots for two hours and let the glycolic, malic and lactic acids get to work resurfacing the area. Just keep in mind that the brand says you may not notice a difference immediately, but over the next week or so, any hardened, dead skin should begin to slough off.

Fine lines and dark circles begone! According to buyers, this fan-favorite eye cream reportedly makes under eyes brighter and less puffy with its hydrating combination of hyaluronic acid and caffeine (which, much like your morning coffee, can wake up your skin by increasing circulation). But don't just take our word for it. One reviewer shares, "[It has] helped reduce my eye wrinkles significantly. [It's] the one product that doesn't leave my rotation."

Got clogged skin from all those products you've been using over the summer? You're not the only one. Thankfully, these exfoliating facial pads can come to our rescue. Thanks to patented Tri-Enzyme technology, lactic acid and probiotics, the product helps to gently exfoliate the skin while promoting cells' natural turnover. One buyer raves, "My skin feels so soft and my breakouts are far less often and less severe. [The pads are] like getting a facial everyday but much more economical!"

If you're skeptical about hair gummies, you should know that PureWow Editor Dana Dickey vouches for similar nutrient-packed formulas with biotin and zinc, since the ingredients helped strengthen her hair and nails all at the same dang time. If you're struggling with hair shredding and thinning, these HUM gummies are formulated to help over a period of four to eight weeks. And it doesn't hurt that they taste like candy.

You may have been waiting for the perfect moment to buy this serum loaded with a boatload of vitamin C. And good thing you did, because it's currently marked down from $142 to $114. It may still be a splurge, but buyers think it's worth it for how well it penetrates their skin, helping to minimize dark spots and fine lines while brightening their complexion. "This is my ride-or-die vitamin C. I have used it for more than ten years..." one shares. "[It] helps to keep my skin glowing and hydrated. This is a must-buy!"

Want to rejuvenate your skin in two easy steps? When used daily, these chemical peel packets are formulated to even out your complexion and deliver a glow that you can see from across the room—all because they're soaked with skin-resurfacing glycolic and lactic acids, which the brand says can also help with the reduction of fine lines. Angela Pares, PureWow's VP of branded content, put the Extra Strength version (which is currently sold out at Dermstore) to the test and noticed a difference in her skin texture after the first use (no exaggeration). As she shared in her review, "[My skin] felt smoother, but not tight like it once had with my old scrubs." Since they share the same core ingredients, we have no doubt that the original peels work just as well. With this 60-peel pack, you won't need to restock them sooner than you wish.
