Shopping in stores is utter pandemonium on Black Friday. So stay away from the pushing and barging of reckless shoppers (and the long queues) and enjoy the same discounts from home by shopping online. Plus, your TV, a face mask and a cup of tea can accompany you. What’s not to love?

Check social media

In today’s digital world, every Beauty Editor knows that checking social media is key when bagging the best deals. But if a retailer has hundreds of offers (like Beauty Expert will on Black Friday) the chances are that they aren’t going to have time to tweet about all of them. A brands social media channels will usually share and post about the best, most enticing offers, so make sure you follow all the relevant channels.

Beauty expert will be unveiling some of our best offers on Thursday evening, so make sure you’re following our Facebook, Instagram and Twitter to take advantage of our exclusive deals.

Don’t forget about the rest of the weekend

In the midst of Black Friday, don’t forget about the rest of the weekend. Now known as ‘Cyber Weekend’ there will be offers throughout the entire weekend on Beauty Expert, concluding with something extra special on Monday, 27, November or ‘Cyber Monday’ as it’s more commonly known.
