Nobody uses a hair dryer. and round brush at home these days; That’s too much admin. He Double Shot Dryer Brush Dry, straighten and style, leaving you with a salon-quality blowout without the effort of flexing your biceps or chatting with the stylist. WIRED reviewer Adrienne So says she prefers the Double Shot to Revlon’s original blow-dry brush. It’s a splurge, so the only reasonable time to buy it would be when it’s on sale.
We’ve tried (and approved) other GHD hair tools before, and with a 30 percent discount, this may be the day to invest in some good hair. He GHD Platinum+ It’s a smart straightener that doesn’t actually fry your hair. Preset to the optimal temperature of 365 degrees Fahrenheit, it’s gentle enough for fine hair but powerful enough to tame the wildest curls.
This is he Dyson Airwrap cheated, and I mean that in the best way possible. He FlexStyle Shark It includes six tools in one: two automatic curlers, an oval brush, a paddle brush, a diffuser and a concentrator. Whether you’re going for mermaid waves or a blowout, it offers versatility for all hair types and textures. At $223, it’s still an investment, but it’s much easier to justify than the Dyson’s exorbitant $600 price tag.
He Dyson Air Wrap (8/10, WIRED recommends) is the Birkin of hair tools: luxurious, expensive, and everyone and their mother wants one. It’s normally $600, but this Black Friday deal drops it to $500, which makes the dream seem a little more attainable (he says hopefully). Plus, with six attachments (two long barrels, two straightening brushes, a volumizing brush, and a Coanda 2-in-1 blow dryer), it’s like having your own glam kit in a box.
As featured in our guide to the best hair straighteners, this unique four-plate straightener delighted our tester with its ability to do two passes in one, as well as its 10 different heat settings. The design makes it difficult to add curls or waves, but for those who just need a flat iron and nothing else, this is a fantastic bargain at over 50 percent off. —Kat Merck
I’ve been using straighteners to curl my hair forever. And that’s because I can’t understand the mechanics of a standard curling iron, no matter how many YouTube tutorials I watch. But thanks to the Beachwaver rotating curling iron, I can achieve corkscrew curls any time I want. All you have to do is hold your hair, press the button and it automatically wraps your hair around the wand. It takes a few tries to fully master it, but after a while, it’s super easy. —Brenda Stolyar
We are big fans of Olaplex at WIRED and this shampoo is not an exception. It is cruelty-free, vegan, and formulated without sulfates, parabens, or phthalates. At $21 this Black Friday, it’s the best excuse to get a bottle or two for you and a friend.
Revlon heard our cries and delivered: the Volumizer Plus 2.0 It has solved most of the problems I had with its previous model. It’s smaller, faster, and no longer looks like it was designed for someone with three arms. The new medium setting is the Goldilocks of temperatures: not too hot, not too weak, just a perfect voluminous blowout in under 15 minutes. The detachable brush also makes portability a non-issue. At $32, it costs less than my caffeine addiction, let alone a single visit to the Drybar.
Certified by Quiet Mark, an independent organization that assesses the noise pollution of household products, this hair dryer came highly recommended by former WIRED contributor Victoria Woollaston-Webber. It also comes with a concentrator and diffuser. Former WIRED reviewer Medea Giordano tested it for our guide to the best hair dryers and was also impressed with how quiet it was; Check it out for yourself while it’s half off for Black Friday. —Kat Merck

Better Than Sex offers lush, wavy, bold lashes that stay put for long days (and nights) without smudging or flaking. If you’ve been looking for a mascara that lives up to its name, this one adds drama in the best way and lasts much longer.
This foundation is great for covering redness and dark circles, while also leaving an even base to apply the rest of your makeup. It feels a little heavy at first, but sets in very well (we recommend using a standard makeup sponge for better application). It also comes in a good variety of shades, unlike other popular foundations. However, we do not recommend it if your skin type is dry; We notice that it adheres to dry areas. —Brenda Stolyar

Thirty dollars is a small price to pay for pearly white teeth. He Sonicare 4100 It eliminates unnecessary frills and focuses on quality features like a pressure sensor, a two-minute timer, and long battery life (about two weeks on a single charge). It’s gentler than an oscillating toothbrush and is our favorite sonic toothbrush.
Micellar water removes makeup, removes impurities and refreshes the face, all without a single rinse. It’s perfect for lazy days or when you need to cool off after a long flight or exercise. When I’m at home I like to follow Bioderma Follow with a rinse-off cleanser. (I have been using COSRX Snail Mucin Advanced Gel Cleanserand it turns out that it is also on sale).

It is the most potent over-the-counter option available, so people with sensitive skin should consult a dermatologist and tread carefully.

Hydrocolloid patches are my not-so-secret weapon for controlling breakouts. They reduce pimples, absorb dirt and prevent you from scratching your skin.

With winter just around the corner, your lips may start to feel more chapped than usual. This lip mask will definitely help you with that. The thick texture melts quickly and sinks right into dry skin, leaving lips less chapped. It also lasts long enough throughout the day that you don’t have to constantly reapply the product, so the bottle, although small, should last a while. —Brenda Stolyar
He beard coverage It earns traveler MVP status thanks to its USB-C charging, a feature so obvious that I’m surprised more brands haven’t taken notice. The stainless steel teeth and high RPM motor handle stubble and shorter beards with ease. It’s not the prettiest, but it’s waterproof.
