When the evenings are dark and the temperatures low, Black Friday Dyson deals are one of the few things to motivate me, and this one has certainly caught my eye. Right now, there’s an impressive £50 off the brand’s coveted airstrait straightener. In her review of the hair tool, eCommerce editor Eva Waite-Taylor said it “somehow made [her] thick, weighty locks feel light and healthy”. She added that the finish also appeared “much more natural” than a professional blow-dry.

CeraVe’s hydrating cleanser is one of my absolute faves and, together with the best-selling moisturising lotion and AM SPF, your skin will be set for a full day of comfort and protection. Reviewing the cleanser in a guide to the best CeraVe products, Lucy Partington explained that it didn’t strip or dry skin out. “Instead, it’s formulated with a blend of ceramides and hyaluronic acid to help make sure that the skin retains its much-needed moisture,” she said. Likewise, she found the AM moisturising SPF to be “lightweight, nourishing and undetectable under makeup”. With 50 per cent off, it’s a no-brainer.

Colgate max white ultimate renewal whitening toothpaste, 75ml: Was £24, now £10.08, Boots.com
Now better than half price at Boots, this Colgate offering made it into IndyBest’s review of top whitening toothpastes. “It cleans well, leaving teeth feeling super smooth, and the professional whitening ingredients within the formula help lift stains – red wine stood no chance against this,” said reviewer Amerley. However, she added there was one area where she felt there was room for improvement: “the taste and subsequent fresh-breath effect”. Still, the toothpaste scored four out of five stars overall, and now could be the perfect time to try it for yourself.
Dreamland hygge days faux fur warming throw: Was £129.99, now £79.99, Boots.com
IndyBest reviewer Zoe is a big fan of Dreamland’s heated throws, and this one scored four out of five stars in her review of the best electric blankets. “Not only does it look great – and highly inviting – draped over the corner of a sofa, the LED controls offer six temperature settings and three auto shut-off timers: one, three or nine hours,” Zoe said. Thanks to a combination of the heating elements and the faux fur design, Zoe was kept nice and toasty during testing, making this offer extra tempting now the winter chill has set in.
Laneige lip sleeping mask berry: Was £21, now £16.80, Boots.com
The Laneige lip sleeping mask is my one and only when it comes to lip hydration in the colder months. This, the berry iteration, is the sort of flavoured balm that I crave throughout the day and – though I needn’t, thanks to its long-wearing formula – end up reapplying again and again just to get a whiff of its candy-sweet scent. Yes, it’s really that good, and with 20 per cent off it’s even better.
Elemis pro-collagen cleansing balm: Was £49, now £36.75, Boots.com
My hall-of-fame cleanser, the Elemis pro-collagen cleansing balm, is something I am thrilled to see in the Boots Black Friday sale, specifically in its original lavender and chamomile formula. It’s soothing, smells like a spa and removes even the most long-lasting of make-up products, including red lipstick, waterproof eyeliner and the like. Now the 100g tub has been reduced by 25 per cent, making this the perfect time to add it to your skincare bounty. Trust me, you won’t regret it.

Securing a spot in beauty write Lauren’s review of the best perfumes for women, she praised Sol de Janeiro’s Brazilian crush cheirosa 62 mist as a “lightweight perfume that can be thrown in a gym bag without risk of smashing.” If you love the bestselling Sol de Janeiro bum bum cream, you’ll love this body mist version which boasts the same scent. Notes of pistachio, salted caramel and almond transport you straight to the beach. Right now, it’s discounted to less than £17 in the Boots Black Friday sale.
La Roche-Posay effaclar purifying foaming gel: Was £16, now £12, Boots.com
In the best cleansers guide, this was found to provide “vibrancy to the skin that was noticeable after just a few washes”. Recommended for anyone struggling with oily or sensitive skin due to its hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic formula, La Roche Posay is a much-loved and well-trusted brand by both users and dermatologists and now you can pick it up for yourself for 25 per cent off.
The Ordinary daily set: Was £18.60, now £15.81, Boots.com
The Ordinary is much-loved for its affordable skincare solutions and this bundle from Boots allows you to try three of the brand’s bestsellers. Discounted in the retailer’s Black Friday event, the set includes the squalane cleanser which earned a spot in the best cleansers review, thanks to its ability to remove make-up while cleansing. The kit also includes the hyaluronic acid 2% + B5 which beauty writer Helen Wilson-Beevers gave five stars to, as well as the natural moisturizing factors + HA which is a daily moisturiser that works with your skin to support its natural hydration barrier.

A cult bronzer which has more than stood the test of time, Benefit’s hoola matte bronzer has 25 per cent off at the moment. In beauty writer Lucy’s review, she said: “It blends like a dream, whether applied over foundation or layered with a cream bronze, and it’s the sort of shade (hoola original) that is equally effective as a subtle contour shadow as it is for a dusting of faux summer colour.”
La Roche Posay effaclar duo+M gel moisturiser: Was £20.29, now £15.67, Boots.com
Hailed as the best on test in our review of the best moisturisers for acne-prone skin, La Roche Posay effaclar duo+M gel moisturiser is currently discounted by 25 per cent, bringing the price down to a little less than £17. “It’s acne-fighting, with the ingredients regulating the production of sebum, decreasing blackheads and spots, gently unclogging the pores and working against pigmentation”, our IndyBest reviewer said, and recommended it for those who like a lightweight cream.
Medela freestyle hands-free double electric wearable breast pump: Was £299.99, now £239.99, Boots.com
Breast pumps can cost a pretty penny, so if you’re a mum-to-be who’s looking to snap one up, you’ll want to check out this Black Friday deal. Right now, you can get 20 per cent off the Medela freestyle, which is essentially £60 of savings. What’s more, it was dubbed the best wearable breast pump in Rebecca Moore‘s review.

Lancôme teint miracle bare skin hydrating dewy foundation SPF 15: Was £39.50, now £19.75, Boots.com
While IndyBest hasn’t reviewed this exact Lancôme foundation, myself and the team are huge fans of its teint idole ultra wear sibling and simply couldn’t pass up the chance to grab this – teint miracle – with 50 per cent off. While teint idole “balances out skin tone,” the brand’s miracle iteration promises the same smoothing effect but with a lighter, more radiant finish. With the dullness of winter all around us, my skin is practically gasping for a bit of glow – hand it over, Boots.
Dr Jart+ pore remedy 5% multi-acid radiance peel: Was £33, now £26.40, Boots.com
In IndyBest’s review of the best chemical peels, beauty buff Ellis recommended this Dr Jart+ formula for those who want to zero in on the appearance of pores. “Pores shrank in size and looked considerably less congested,” Ellis said. The formula has a “milky serum-like consistency” that feels gentle, making this a “great option for those with sensitive skin who are considering trying an at-home chemical peel”. This Black Friday, you can pick up the product with a 20 per cent discount.
Dior sauvage eau de parfum: Was £85, now £70, Boots.com
Dior sauvage (in its eau de toilette iteration) landed a spot in the guide to the best men’s fragrances, with Lee Kynaston noting that “it’s fresh at first, then peppery and metallic then, after a few hours on the skin, creamy and delicately musky”. With £15 off, now’s the time to save on this luxe scent.
Garmin forerunner 255 music GPS smartwatch: Was £349.99, now £236.99, Boots.com
Smartwatches are as much top gifts for loved ones as they are an investment in yourself and Garmin’s forerunner 255 is one of the best. Discussing the device in his review, Alistair Charlton commented how the 255 “includes a wide range of health and fitness tracking functions, including a race widget to help you prepare for your next event”. Now with more than £100 off, it’s the perfect time to prepare for that 2025 race or get those all-important steps up on the day-to-day.
CeraVe blemish control face cleanser: Was £13, now £9.10, Boots.com
CeraVe products are always my affordable skincare go-to, but I certainly won’t turn my nose up at an extra 30 per cent off. This – the blemish control face cleanser – features acne-fighting ingredients like salicylic acid and niacinamide, while maintaining a healthy skin barrier with hydration from hyaluronic acid and nourishment from three different ceramides. Reviewing the cleanser in our guide to the best CeraVe products, our tester commented how it “doesn’t dry out skin or strip it of moisture” and “leaves the skin feeling comfortable.”

A whopping £100 has been shaved off the price of this Philips 5000 series model. When our reviewer tested Philips’ similar S5579 shaver, they praised the “super-useful” digital display, which reminds you of battery levels – a feature also present in this reduced iteration.

Neom wellbeing pod electric diffuser: Was £95, now £80.75 (+ £20 free gift), Boots.com
At the top of the electric diffuser food chain, the Neom wellbeing pod is the key to making your space smell sublime and now, thanks to the Boots Black Friday sale, it’s reduced by 15 per cent.

Indeed, the candle alone is worth £20, which means you’re getting almost £35 in savings. Plus, in Helen Wilson-Beevers‘ review of the wellbeing pod’s larger ‘luxe’ sibling, she praised its “unique design that fits in seamlessly with loads of interior styles.” It’s a yes from me.
Oral-B iO8 electric toothbrush violet ametrine with limited edition travel case: Was £450, now £149.99, Boots.com
If you’ve not tried Oral-B’s iO series of toothbrushes, take this £300 discount as a sign to get involved. The newer editions – for example, the iO8, 9 and 10 – can help you navigate the different areas of your mouth, intelligently ensuring that you don’t miss a single spot. The iO8 comes with six different modes from sensitive to intensive clean.

Cloud Nine the airshot pro: Was £299, now £229, Boots.com
A product I managed to get my hands on with Black Friday specifically in mind, Cloud Nine’s airshot pro is the latest iteration of the brand’s bestselling airshot blow dryer. It’s lightweight, as sleek as they come design-wise and promises intelligent temperature control for maximum shine – but does it live up to its claims? My verdict was threefold: the self-cleaning anti-dust feature is spectacular, it really does allow your hair to achieve a mirror-level gloss, and it made for a relatively quick blow-dry. It gets a thumbs up from me, so why not join the silky strand crew while there’s £70 off at Boots.
Marc Jacobs daisy eau de toilette: Was £73, now £54.75, Boots.com
A firm favourite among IndyBest readers, Marc Jacob’s Daisy perfume was so popular we set about reviewing the entire Daisy perfume range.

This foundation is ever the crowd-pleaser. In her review of the best Nars foundations, beauty expert Lauren found that “a few hours after application, there was still a glow but not a greasy one.

Now that it has 25 per cent off, it could be time to stock up.
Have the Boots Black Friday deals begun?
The Boots Black Friday sale is live, with hundreds of products on offer. The main day – Black Friday itself – was on 29 November but the deals are carrying on through the weekend before wrapping up on Cyber Monday (2 December).
When does the Boots Black Friday and Cyber Monday sale end?
Boots Black Friday sale will run until 3 December (aka the day after Cyber Monday). That gives us an extra few hours to nab as many deals on beauty, grooming and more before the bell tolls on the end of another year’s Black Friday celebrations.
However, it’s worth noting that the retailer hasn’t confirmed when the deals will cease on 3 December, so I’d get all your shopping in ahead of time – just in case.
