You’ve Got 24 Hours To Save 20% On The Biggest Beauty Brands

If the easing of lockdown and its head-scratching revision of restrictions has got you feeling a little tense, here's some good news to take the edge off this Friday morning: today marks the start of Refinery29's second-ever beauty flash sale, which means — just like last time — you've got 24 hours to scoop up all the skincare essentials, cult products and transformative treatments you need to prep your mind, body and soul for post-lockdown life out there in the real world. And with 20% off top products from LOOKFANTASTIC and HQhair, this is one blink-of-an-eye deal you definitely don't want to miss.

If there's anything we've learned from this fiasco of a year (and then some), it's that a little self-love can go a long way. Whenever we find ourselves riding the emotional loops and sharp turns of the corona-coaster, a healthy dose of joy from doing what feels good on both the outside and the inside can help steer us back towards a sense of calm. Keeping this in mind, we've stacked our latest R29 Flash promotion with an array of dreamy discounts on the top-selling, most loved, highest rated products we know our readers can't get enough of, so you can go forth and lather/exfoliate/hydrate your way to your most zen self. Think creamy body butters, luxury skin treatment candles that are essentially your very own apothecary in a bottle, and volumising gels to keep your brow game strong, be that on a screen or beyond. Whatever it is you're after, there's a feelgood item for everyone at a discount.

Ahead, we've outlined the sales and codes you need to know about in order to tackle the path out of lockdown head-on — because, let's face it: June 21 can't come soon enough.
