My favorite beauty products on sale for 4th of July, here’s what I’ve tested and loved

As a longtime beauty editor, I’m seriously impressed with the star-spangled skin care sales that are going on right now for the Fourth of July. Not all of them, of course — there are just too many products that don’t deliver on their promises. But I consider it my patriotic duty to share deep discounts on those best-in-class picks that I use myself and that I know work.

Let me be clear: I don’t expect any beauty item — discounted for July 4 or not — to turn back the clock on my face or hair. But I do try hundreds of items each year and have identified a number of worth-it tools and products, many of which you can snag for less in between barbecues and fireworks this weekend. Want a sneak peek? These deals include up to 40%-off discounts on my favorite mascara, hydrating eye masks, and a scalp brush that can help stimulate hair growth.

Most of the gems below are clinically proven or, at the very least, wildly well-reviewed, and right now, you can grab them for less. Here’s to hoping my favorites set of fireworks for you too.

The best 4th of July beauty sales

Clinique’s iconic Black Honey lipstick, it’s super close. And the addition of sun protection and natural emollients like castor oil make it a worthy foil.

the best mascara of 2025, and it’s nearly 40% off for the 4th. The no-smudge, zero-flake formula lengthens and thickens lashes without being a hassle to apply (I did not have to remove globs from the applicator brush once in the last month — a first).

In addition to having this beauty editor’s vote, more than 80,000 five-star reviewers rave about it on Amazon, all stating something along the lines of, “10/10 would recommend, I’ve ordered this six times now … it’s the best mascara I’ve ever used.” Truly, it’s that good.

stimulate hair growth.

This brush, nearly 40% off, makes it easy — just apply your shampoo or hair oil and go to town in circular motions for a minute or two. Not only will you unclog pores on your scalp and improve circulation, but the whole process feels amazing.

website, she’s been getting the same one, at the same place — the Mario Badescu Spa in New York City — for 40 years. So it should come as little surprise that most all of her favorite skin care products are from the high-quality Mario Badescu line. Martha’s top picks include this mega-popular collagen mask, which is specially formulated to work for both mature and sensitive skin. The award-winning product is made from collagen and kaolin clay and is meant to tighten, firm and bring moisture to parched faces, necks and even decolleté.

snail mucin (always a skin care boon) and includes a variety of high-quality ingredients like ectoin, which is known for smoothing rough texture, and azulene, which helps calm irritation. It’s also cruelty-free, paraben-free and delivered in sustainable packaging — much appreciated in an industry that creates so much waste.

best eye cream of the year! If you’re looking for a low-cost retinol treatment to help with dark circles and eye wrinkles, this is for you. RoC is the premier name in over-the-counter retinol, and its eye cream is highly rated, with nearly 40,000 5-star Amazon reviews. It’s excellent for improving the appearance of both fine lines and dark circles, and it’s dermatologist-recommended too. I only wish it contained more antioxidant, nourishing ingredients. But for this price, this cream honestly cannot be beat.

Deputy Editor Izabella Zaydenberg is a fan. “I’ve bought these four times — I think it’s the most I’ve ever repurchased any skin care product,” she says. “Unfortunately, I don’t think I can live without them: I ran out a few days ago and my blackheads (which these pads nearly entirely eradicated) decided to come back with a vengeance. It’s no wonder they’re an Amazon bestseller: Each pad gently exfoliates your skin with AHA lactic acid and BHA salicylic acid, leaving your skin truly glass-like.”

wrote an in-the-know user. “Most things that work as well as Differin are prescription-only. It actually works in a similar manner that some of the prescription-strength treatments do: by increasing the rate at which your skin cells turn over.”

said this pleased user. “They weren’t so white they looked fake, but white enough for others to notice a change. They did cause a bit or gum sensitivity on my top gums, but that didn’t last long or was unbearable. I definitely recommend these if you’re wanting to start slow in the whitening process or your teeth don’t have much discoloration.”

sunscreen), it would be this. The lactic acid treatment gently yet effectively exfoliates dull surface skin, promoting cell turnover and giving even the dullest, dreariest complexion a healthy, vibrant glow.

It also smooths and plumps rough texture and clarifies an uneven tone. My skin never looks better than when I use this every night and, while this sale price still isn’t cheap, a little bit goes a long way.
