The 9 Most Iconic Beauty Products In The Black Friday Sales

Soleil Tan de Chanel is the kind of product beauty dreams are made of. The weighty pot will last you all year, while the lacquered, double-C engraved lid will look incredibly bouji on your dressing table. 

But, of course, it's what's on the inside that really counts, and boy is this a brilliantly formulated bronzer. Unlike literally anything else on the market (many brands have tried – and failed – to 'dupe' it), this dense, matte cream can be picked up with a powder brush, dusted under or over foundation, and swiped strategically to carve out killer cheekbones. It's revolutionary. 

Byredo's perfumes are coveted the world over, but with so many to choose from, you'll be hard-pressed to find a favourite without some kind of divine intervention. 

Our advice? Head straight for Blanche, which is a byword for the crispest, cleanest scent you'll ever spritz. Forget cloying talc notes or blink-and-you'll-miss-it citrus: this is pure violet and musk-tinted freshness, like the cleanest cotton sheets that ever were. 

And seeing as there's a very generous 15% discount (thank you, Liberty), maybe treat yourself to the body wash, too. 

The name of many a NARS product precedes its performance – Orgasm, anyone? But not this one: the brand's Laguna and Casino bronzing powders are famed for their supreme performance alone.

 Both illuminate without relying on glitter (which always looks fake), and are warming without imparting those giveaway ruddy undertones. 

Paler skins are destined for Laguna, while darker tones will love Casino. Your bank balance will love either. 

Ask any beauty editor what their ride-or-die mascara is and you'll get...a lot of conflicting opinions.

Like the perfect shade of red lipstick, a favourite mascara is a subjective thing. After all, few can deliver perfection when it comes to length, volume and colour. Enter Dior's Pump 'N' Volume: the mascara to unite us all. (And yes, it's the one with the no-waste squeezy tube.)

The hype around Augustinus Bader's debut product was remarkable – across the world, A-listers and beauty editors fawned. (Victoria Beckham even tapped him up to create her debut skincare product.)

Turns out, this clever cream really delivers. The secret is the Trigger Factor Complex, which works to kick-start the natural healing process of the body's stem cells. 30 years of research and development have clearly paid off.

If you're a 'lipstick person', you already know about this one. You've likely got one stashed in your bag right now, as well as one on your dresser, and an 'emergency' one  floating around your bedroom somewhere. 

So good it's never been successfully imitated, MAC's Ruby Woo is the ultimate lipstick. A true red, it's neither too orange or too blue, and there's no skin tone it won't look beautiful against. 

We all know that alpha-hydroxy-acids are the gold standard when it comes to resurfacing, but so many require a degree in dermatology to use correctly.

Forgo the faffing in favour of REN's cult Ready Steady Glow: it's formulated with lactic acid alongside beta-hydroxy salicylic acid, so works on both dull skin and breakouts. Simply sweep it over cleansed skin every few nights – no brow-furrowing required.

This one likely needs little introduction. The original (and still the best) lash-growth serum, Rapidlash works by feeding your follicles with the nutrients and proteins they need to deliver a Bambi-like flutter.  

Many of Diptyque's fragrances could be considered iconic, but Do Son is the one that'll see you being stopped by strangers in the street. 

The tuberose trail is enticing enough, but it's the unusual addition of orange blossom and jasmine that take things to truly memorable heights. A spectacular ode to its namesake beach, in Vietnam's Ha Long Bay.
