It's no secret that being a beauty editor means there's a high likelihood of developing expensive taste in beauty products. This is all well and good when those exorbitantly priced lotions and potions magically drop from the heavens and onto our desks (thanks, PR friends!), but paying out of pocket for those bougie items is not always realistic.

Thank goodness for Cyber Monday because it's the perfect time to load up on those pricey beauty products without going completely broke. Ahead, check out the 21 beauty buys I can't live without—but also can't actually afford unless they're discounted.

Associate Beauty Editor

Courtney Higgs is a Cancer sun, Libra rising beauty enthusiast with about six years of experience in the editorial space. She was previously Who What Wear's associate beauty editor after spending many years working on the West Coast edit team at InStyle Magazine. She graduated from California State University, Northridge, with a BA in communication studies and pivoted to editorial after spending her college years working in the legal field. Her beauty philosophy is simple: She believes there are no wrong answers and that discovering our favorite beauty products and rituals is a journey, not a sprint. When she's not geeking out over products, she can be found adventuring around L.A. with her fiancé; watching reality TV with their French bulldog, Bernie Mac; or relating way too hard to astrology memes.
