It’s official: Black Friday deals 2023 are here early. It’s the biggest shopping event of the year, where you can make incredible savings on pretty much everything. Most retailers are offering better discounts than we’ve ever seen (hello Olaplex, Dyson, and designer fashion deals).
With 25 and 30% discounts seemingly the norm across most brands this year, there are massive savings to be had. So whether you’re planning on utilising the sales to stock up on your favourite beauty buys or snap up that pricier homeware item you’ve had your eye on for ages, we’ve got the best deals for you.
Here at Marie Claire UK, it’s literally our job to find the best beauty, fashion and home products online, so we know a thing or two when it comes to scouring the sales to find the best deals. We also think it’s super important to actually try out the products ourselves before we recommend them, which is why most of these deals feature products we know are great because we own them ourselves.
With the cost of living crisis ongoing, shoppers are utilising the sales more than ever this year. But it’s important to still shop wisely and not get tempted to spend more than you’re saving.
We’ve written a guide on how to get the best out of the Black Friday deals, and how to avoid fake Black Friday discounts, but the simplest tip (and the one we most advocate) is mindful sale shopping. Which is why we’ll only feature deals our editors will be shopping themselves, think are genuinely worth it, or - more often than not - both.
We’ll be updating this Live Hub regularly throughout the next week, so be sure to check back for the best deals in real time.

Top deal picks from the Marie Claire editors
Hi, Valeza here, Marie Claire UK's Junior Shopping editor.
It's literally my job to shop online, so I'm a pro at finding the most coveted products at the best prices.
Black Friday might not be until tomorrow, but the sales are already upon us, and if you've been holding out till closer to the date to snap up the best deals then you're in luck, as I've rounded up our editors to scour the sales so you don't have to - happy browsing!
47% off Dyson Corrale Hair Straighteners | £179.99 (was £339.99) at Dyson
Run, don't walk to Dyson where you can find the Corrale hair straighteners for only £179.99 in the Renewed section (that's almost half price, just FYI).
Our beauty editors swear by the Dyson Corrale for maximum results with minimal effort and damage. The copper plates inside these genius hair straighteners adapt to the shape of the section of hair you're styling, wrapping around it to give you the smoothest result possible.
Reformation | 25% off everything
That's right, you can save 25% on the entire Reformation website right now. Whether you're in the market for a new special occasion dress or a timeless addition to your capsule wardrobe, they've got you covered.
Reformation's clothing is both stunning and of an incredible quality, but does come with the higher price tag to match, so if you've had your eye on a new piece from Reformation then now's the perfect time to snap it up.
25% off Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream | £36 at Lookfantastic (was £48)
Sol de Janeiro's Brazilian Bum Bum Cream is hands down my go-to body moisturiser. Not only does it smell incredible (making me genuinely believe I'm on holiday and not my freezing house), but it also sinks in pretty much straightaway, and keeps my skin hydrated all day.
The Body Shop | 25% off everything with the code BLACKFRIDAY
Fans of The Body Shop assemble - now is the ideal time to stock up on your much-loved favourites. I'm talking body butters, hand creams, skincare, and make-up: they're all included in the Black Friday discount!
You can even save on The Body Shop's advent calendar (which is already discounted by over £78 when compared to buying the products individually).
What will I be stocking up on? Find my top picks below.
25% off Elizabeth Scarlett Sun Goddess Make-up Bag | £27 (was £36)
It's a favourite pastime of mine to browse through the Elizabeth Scarlett website, so the fact that it currently has 25% off sitewide makes me very excited.
I own a few of the gorgeous velvet pouches already and I'm yet to find a more stylish make-up bag than this Sun Goddess model. Needless to say it'd make a brilliant gift too (hello Christmas shopping).
20% off Gozney Roccbox Pizza Oven | £319.20 (was £399)
I own this pizza oven myself and it's honestly changed the game when it comes to hosting guests. It cooks my homemade pizza in a matter of minutes and looks so chic while doing it.
It goes without saying that this will elevate your summer garden parties, and I know it's winter right now, but what could be more cosy than a pizza night? I'm just saying!
We're huge fans of Whistles - if you're after some new timeless, high-quality pieces to add to your wardrobe then look no further. From tailored trousers to statement-making dresses, you're sure to find a beautiful piece among its ranks.
There's currently 20% off everything at Whistles ATM - and yes, that includes sale items - so you can potentially make a huge saving! Find my top deal picks below...
extra 40% off the Dyson Supersonic | eBay Refurbished
If you've been hunting for the best Dyson supersonic deals this Black Friday then eBay have delivered beyond all expectations.
Not only is the iconic hairdryer already discounted thanks to eBay refurbished (which stocks electronics that have been previously used but are now in like-new condition), but you'll get an extra 40% off with the code DYSONBF40. At £167.99, this is the best price I've ever seen on the Supersonic hairdryer.
I don't mean to alarm you, but this deal won't be around for long, and stock is already selling at lightning speed, so I'd be quick about snapping it up!
Your eyes do not deceive you. Jo Malone is on sale this Black Friday at the beauty retailer AllBeauty. I don't know about you, but the BF Sales are when I make a good stab at my Christmas shopping list and know that Jo Malone is a real crowd pleaser on Christmas day.
Whether you opt for a classic such as Lime Basil & Mandarin (was £118 now £105.95) or want to try something new, might we suggest Mandarin & Cardamon was £118 now £99.95, now is the perfect time to save some £'s.
15% off the Emma Original Pillow | £33.62 (was £39.60)
I've been a fan of the Emma Original Pillow since the summer when I was on the hunt for something to cure my sleeplessness. It has completely transformed my sleep and now I wouldn't be without it.
The best thing about the Emma Original Pillow is that you have 30 days to try it out, and if you don't love it you can get your money back. However, the likelihood is that you'll want to keep hold of it - I honestly wish I had invested in one sooner!
Happy Black Friday!
Valeza here (AKA MCUK's Junior Shopping Editor), coming to you with the best Black Friday shopping deals to be found online right now. From John Lewis to Sephora, I'm scouring the sales for the very best discounts.
It's officially the biggest shopping day of the year, so be sure to shop mindfully and only buy what you really need. We have some expert-approved tips to help you stay calm while shopping the BF sales, so be sure to read up to make the most of the day!
Now onto the deals - read on for my top picks of the day...
Get 75% off National Express coach travel at Amazon
Amazon Prime members can enjoy 75% off 11,000 National Express coach tickets when they checkout using Amazon Pay, with prices as low as £3.90. With Christmas just round the corner, this is a brilliant option if you've been putting off travelling home because of the costs involved.
Whether you're heading home for the holidays or just want to see more of the UK in the New year, there are over 1,000 UK destinations on offer so you'll never be short of places to travel to.
Tickets are limited though, so I'd act fast if I were you!
£200 off Sage Barista Express Bean-to-Cup Coffee Machine | £500 at John Lewis (was £700)
It's no secret that Sage coffee machines come with a hefty price tag, but coming from someone who owns one, trust me - they're worth it.
You can currently save an impressive £200 on the classic Barista Express which will get you the perfect bean-to-cup experience from home. I carve out a little extra time each morning to use mine and savour the superior taste, and I've never regretted it.
In my opinion, this is truly an investment purchase worth snapping up this Black Friday.
Sephora - up to 40% off sitewide
Beauty fanatics assemble, it's a great time to stock up on your favourite beauty buys at bargain prices. My first port of call? Sephora, who is offering some of the best beauty discounts around - think 15% off Laura Mercier, 20% off Cerave, 30% off Color Wow, 30% off Elemis and 31% off Caudalie.

79% off The Body Shop Himalayan Charcoal Skin Clarifying Night Peel | £5 (was £24)
There's nothing I love more than getting a great discount on a product I already use and love, which is why I was so excited to see that The Body Shop's Himalayan Charcoal Skin Clarifying Night Peel was 79% off - yes you read that right. It's now only £5 *adds to basket*.
I smooth a few drops over my face before bed and wake up to smooth, brightened skin. I'm stocking up on a new bottle and am buying one for my friend (who loves The Body Shop's products) too.
£30 off Hotel Chocolat's The Velvetiser | £69.99 (was £99.99)
I use my Velvetiser every single day without fail - it's probably the most-used kitchen product I own. And it's not just for hot chocolate either, from frothing milk to whisking up my matcha tea, it has so many uses.
Obviously I'm going to suggest you invest in it this Black Friday, and there's a hack to getting £30 off on the Hotel Chocolat website. Simply sign up to become a VIP member and you can take almost 1/3 off the original price - genius!
Hotel Chocolat is also offering 15% off when you spend £30 and use the code HOHOHO - Christmas chocolate box, anyone?
Monica Vinader - 30% off everything
Monica Vinader was one of the first brands that made me become obsessed with jewellery - from clean and classic styles to unique, hammered pieces you're sure to find a stunning piece or two.
There's currently a 30% discount on everything plus up to 50% off selected styles in the daily flash sale, so it's the perfect time to treat yourself to a new piece.
50% off The One Rose | £40.99 at sextoys.co.uk (was £81.96)
In the market for a new vibrator? The One Rose went social media-viral for a reason. It features 3 Speeds and 7 Patterns of Suction and Pulsation, looks unreasonably chic and (better yet) is currently 50% off.
Lookfantastic - up to 50% off selected items and an extra 5% off with the code EXTRA
Lookfantastic stocks pretty much every beauty brand out there, which is why I love to go to them to stock up on all my favourite beauty buys. Not only can you find up to 50% off on the website (including CeraVe, Bobbi Brown, Slip and more) but you can take an extra 5% off for Black Friday with the code EXTRA.
25% off SURI Sustainable Sonic Toothbrush | £71 at Amazon (was £95)
An electric toothbrush is a classic Black Friday choice, so I'd like to introduce you to SURI, which is currently 25% off in the Black Friday sales.
Ever since I started using my SURI toothbrush I couldn't imagine going back to other models I'd used in the past. It goes without saying that it cleans my teeth beautifully, but it's the features that really make it stand out. The recyclable plant-based head and bristles are exactly the type of features I'm looking for in my lifelong toothbrush.
Also, how chic is the design? It comes in pale green, blue and black, has a UV LED cleaning case and even comes with a sleek magnetic mirror mount to clear up your bathroom shelf space.
