My Favorite Spring Beauty Sale Is on—Here's How I'm Shopping the Hell Out of It

When it comes to buying beauty, I like to shop as strategically as possible. Since I’m a beauty editor, I have tons of favorite products that I think are worth paying full price for, but I also know that if you time it right, you can usually get them on sale. Dermstore’s Beauty Refresh Event is here, and between March 1 and March 10, you can save up to 20% on some of the best beauty brands out there—many of which don’t usually go on sale. 

As I’m making my Dermstore wish list, I’m looking ahead at the products I’m going to get the most use out of. I’m a shopping pragmatist, so I won’t be going for fun or flashy products. Instead, I’ll opt for the things I would buy anyway but now can get on major discount. More than anything, I’m looking to stock up on sunscreen ahead of summer, replenish my moisturizers, and re-up my favorite hair products. Below, I’ve compiled a list of all the products that are no-brainers for me to add to my Dermstore cart. Don’t forget to use the code REFRESH at checkout to claim your discount.
