OliviaBlack Friday can always feel a bit manic. I try to follow Martin Lewis’s advice and only buy what I would be buying anyway, and only if it’s a better deal than I’ve seen previously for the product. It’s a great time to get Christmas shopping done which is pretty much my plan for the weekend!
Here’s some brands who are doing some great Black Friday deals which I’ll be shopping in, as well as some small brands with great products for gifts or yourself. I’ll try to keep this updated throughout the weekend if I see good offers. Liv xx
About Glaize: Glaize is a seriously innovative new brand. They make made-to-measure press on gels – giving you salon-level nails from home. They also have some great nail art stickers which you can press on top of any manicure (a great stocking filler). They are female founded which I love, and I’m obsessed with their bright branding.
2. Sweaty Betty – 25% off everything and 50% off certain styles
I refuse to buy any workout leggings which aren’t the Sweaty Betty power ones now (and some colours are 50% off!) I go to a gym class most days (fun classes only, for my brain!) and so for me they’re a great investment – they wash really well and don’t fall down.
3. Beauty Pie – 50% off for non-members, lots of offers for members
I get asked about Beauty Pie all the time – if you’re not yet a member, now is your chance to shop at 50% off (if you want to join, my code CMBHSENTME still works for £10 off). Their candles make perfect gifts – I’m currently loving their new Christmas scent.
4. L’Occitane – 20% off full price/size products
Great for stocking up on gifts! As well as 20% off full size products, L’Occitane will be giving £1 from the sale of every hand cream sold throughout 24th-27th November to The Woodland Trust. I’m gifting their new Neroli & Orchidee shower gel – it smells amazing.
5. Spacemasks – free box when you buy 5 boxes, plus more (small brand alert)
I LOVE Spacemasks for gifts. Founded by the lovely Harriet, they’re self-heating eye masks which smell dreamy and really help me sleep better. You can buy them individually or in multi packs (I split multi packs up for individual gifts for girlfriends). They’re doing a free box when you buy 5 boxes, plus Harriet’s adding in an extra Spacemask to her wonderful Christmas cards.
6. KITRI – 30% off with code BF2230
I would buy the whole website if I could. Great for Christmas party outfits (I will definitely be wearing this during party season!)
7. Beija London – up to 40% off everything (small brand alert)
‘Your sexiest everyday underwear’ – my boyfriend. The most beautiful and comfortable underwear which is well worth the investment. I recently bought another bra from them and am now gutted it’s in the sale! If you can get to their store in King’s Cross, I’d recommend using their free bra fitting service too – they go up to a size 36H.
Their sequin game this year is *strong*. I’ve bought some sequin leggings for a party I’m hosting next week and they’re super comfy.
9. Net-A-Porter – up to 30% off
One to make the most of if you’ve been after something designer for a while. I am OBSESSED with my recent Solace London purchase (check it out here) and some of their dresses are included in the discount.
10. Coggles – 30% off with code CG30
Same as NAP – great if you’ve had your eye on something for a while. Coggles has a few more budget-friendly brands too. I never buy Ganni full price, but these deals are particularly good – 30% off my most-used leopard bag is a bargain.
