The #DamnGood Amazon Prime Day 2025 Beauty Deals That We’re Adding to Cart!

24:41So this morning I used the Maybelline Superstay 30-hour Lumi Matte Foundation. And so of course, even though it's a Lumi Matte, it is matte. So it's like you run that risk of it looking kind of dull. But I just found when I put this over top of this Grip Foundation, it looks so beautiful. Like it's such a great combination. I'm getting this glass skin effect, but I'm getting the coverage. Whereas I find with the glass skin, typically with those formulas, they're more sheer, right? To give you that dewiness. So you're not getting the coverage. So I love this combination. It layers super well. They say it's for all skin types, including sensitive skin.

25:26Now I can tell you as someone who has a lot of texture because I'm in my late forties, it's like the way that it filled in lines. And I've said this before, when I talked about the Milk Makeup Grip and the Elf is like it is all marketed toward Gen Z, but it actually works great on mature skin. And it really this particular product, like the way it filled in the lines around my eyes, the cracks around my nose. And I did do a full wear test. And at the end of the day, I had no cracking around my nose, no cracking in all the lines on my chin, which always happens to me. So this to me is like a miracle product.

26:06Like I haven't tried anything this good in so long. Maybelline is back, baby. And I cannot believe how inexpensive it is. So that's why I'm so excited to share it with everyone. Like this is not going in my bin after this episode. This is top shelf. I'm sorry. Can you repeat the deal again? So we don't know exactly what the deal is, but we know it's starting at 15 percent off. Got it. Yeah. Got it. Yeah. And like I said, the Superstay Foundation. Great for summer. These two in combo, just like chef's kiss. Yeah. I love, I love Maybelline and it sounds like they are back. You've got to try this.

26:41Hey, I will.

26:52This episode is brought to you in part by Pura Dor, a premium natural solution for skin barrier repair and restoration. We've been talking all about Amazon brands and finds today. A brand that I hadn't heard of, Purador, is apparently quite big on Amazon. I hadn't heard of it until now. They have a unique blend of science and nature, and every formula is thoughtfully crafted to deliver transformative skin therapy using USDA organic ingredients. They're really apparently pretty well known for their aloe vera based shampoo and conditioner formulas. I love aloe vera. It was one of my first ingredients in skincare that I was obsessed with.

27:32I had acne skin. So I loved using aloe vera gel to cool my face and to just, you know, call that inflammation that you get from pimples. So there's no sulfates, parabens, synthetic fragrances or colorants that might irritate. And of course, hypoallergenic. Every product is probably made in the USA from formulation to filling using renewable energy all under strict quality control. Because it's done in-house, you know, you're getting that consistency and care in every batch. Now, another one of Pura Doors standout offerings is their skincare oils collection.

29:02What do you have on the makeup front, Jill Dunn? Okay, I have a couple of things that I wanted to shout out for makeup. One has just gone completely viral. This is the L 'Oreal Paris Faux Brow. And this is going to be up to 15 % off. In the US, it's$12.99. And in Canada, it's$18.99. There's eight colors. it's in a pen and it's quite innovative in the sense that it looks kind of like a liquid liner sleek like that but when you open it up it's got two prongs that are very tiny like tiny tiny tiny it's almost like a double pronged liquid liner except a much much thinner yes brush stroke they look like hair like they look as thin as hair in terms of the actual applicator yeah so this one is really great to create these like naturally full brows.

29:54I think if you were somebody who has in particular who has sparse brows, you're going to be obsessed with this. I really liked it for the fact that it's clear that they've innovated in the delivery of a product like this. There have been products like this on the market in the past, like Stila, All Day Brow, where it's like those brow hairs are going on and they're not moving, but it was still like a thicker applicator. So this has a lot more control, a lot more precision. And I saw Glamzilla using this and I was like, I absolutely need that. And it also is waterproof and sweat proof. So for the summer, highly, highly recommend this.

30:33And it's up to 15 % off. Have you tried this? I have. I found it a little bit difficult to work with. I don't think it's great for a novice user such as myself. Like I just had trouble controlling it. It kind of went outside the lines and when I try to fix it, it gets smudgy. I prefer a single stroke, but I think if you're an advanced makeup user such as Glamzilla, you can probably work this to your advantage and have it be an excellent product. And here's the thing. I think if you're a girly out there and you have like two eyebrow hairs, which there's plenty of girls we know that they have to draw on their eyebrows yeah if you're out there drawing on your eyebrows every day this is an interesting fix if you're someone who's really just trying to fill in some sparse hairs you want it to last I love the Maybelline Build-A-Brow which I've talked about in the past which is a single stroke it's also not as intense of a pigment so that to me is more when you talk about natural the Build-A-Brow is natural and this one's a little bit more advanced.

31:35Yeah. Yeah. If you are someone that only has very sparse brows, you go to all the effort of drawing them on. The fact that this is waterproof and sweatproof also is massive. OK, what else? OK, so great news. All Clinique products will be 25 percent off during Amazon Canada Prime Days. So I'm not sure about the U.S. I know for Canada it's 25 percent off, but I'm sure they'll be doing something in the U.S. So what everybody needs to know about is that Clinique, their almost lipstick range that is famous, everybody knows about Black Honey, is that they just launched Nude Honey. Right. It is$25 in the U.S.,$33 in Canada.

32:18This is major news because I feel like nude is such a potentially tricky area because a nude for everyone is kind of that thing where it's like nude is just so loaded. Yeah. Because nude, it depends on your skin tone. You can be pale, you can be dark on the Fitzpatrick scale. So what are they going to do for a nude? So I really expected that this was going to go completely wrong. But when I opened it, look at the color of the nude. When you turn it up, It almost looks like black honey and how dark the shade of nude is. But we all know how sheer these go on. So but I was pleased to see that because I was like, OK, great.

33:01Maybe this can work on all skin tones. So then you swatch it again. It's it's quite sheer, but it's like this beautiful kind of brownie tone on me because I'm fair. I really love this because I find even for myself when I'm fair that a lot of fair nudes just don't look good on me. It's like they're too, they just wash me out. It's like, what is this really doing? So this kind of hits that spot for me where it's like, oh, it is sheer. It has a quote unquote nude effect, but it's actually flattering. So I was really impressed by this. And one of the things that I thought was fascinating when I read about it was it says in the description, the unique formulation of cool and warm pigments.

33:50Right. Combine with your own lip tone to create a just for you nude. So that's really how it works is like it's not too warm. It's not too cool. It's like this still very sheer and very sheer. It's this great combination, but but it's not naked either. So highly recommend it's thirty three dollars. This literally just launched and they already have it on promo, which is also rare. So the fact that this is 30 % off, great time to try it. Love this. I'll be using this all summer.

34:28I'm going to talk very quickly about Flower Nose Beauty. Do you know Flower Nose? Oh, no. I was thinking nose like the nose on your face. No, K-N-O-W-S. Yes, I recently became aware of this line. It's Sea Beauty, if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, so it's out of China. It came out in like 2016, but it is just a huge seller on Amazon. And normally everything is like$20 to begin with. So in this, for upcoming in Prime Day, it is going to be on promotion. This deal is amazing. It's going to be up to 35 % off on single items and all products are included in the discount. This is for Amazon US. And then if you buy two items, you get a free fridge magnet.

35:18So this is a really great promo. But anyway, I wanted to shout out one of my favorite products from the line. And this is like not on brand for me at all, but the products are really good, everybody, because the whole line basically looks like fairies made it. and it's like she's a fairy she's a fairy that song here yeah it's like rococo kind of yes vibes and aesthetics and it looks like their little palettes look like castles yeah yeah like fairies truly and it has bows on everything and the palettes are like pastels but the reason i became interested in this brand was when i was doing research at the end of 2024 the top google things in beauty.

35:59And this brand is far and away like one of the most searched. Wow. I wanted to actually call it in and try it. And this product that I really like from them is the flower nose. It's the lip lacquer. Here's what it looks like, everybody. It looks like a tiny bottle of perfume. It's so pretty. It's like mint green with, like Jill said, like this ornate rosé cap. It looks like the Queen of England back in like Victorian times may have owned this. Yeah, it's a coating lip lacquer. So this brand gives you a lot of very interesting textures. And I've been loving this product because it's a long wear lacquer, but your lips don't feel like they're going to crack off.

36:39I was like impressed. I'm not going to say that all of the products are for me, but I think that this one is a winner and they have some chic colors too that are really cool. And I think it's really on trend and that's why I want to talk about it because this doll-like makeup is not going anywhere. And this is like handshake emoji. These two, this brand goes with that trend so well. And like the Doyin look that it's like D-O-U-Y-I-N makeup trend. And there's a few others. It's like Dollface is another brand that kind of is leading this trend. Like I know Teen Vogue writes about them a lot. But anyway, this one does not look grown up at all, but I really do like the product.

37:22Yeah. Yeah. There is a creator that I'm really interested in having on the podcast who does this doll-like makeup. The OnlyFans girl, Ari Kitsia, I want to say. She's dating Young Gravy. I know this is so off-brand for me, but she does this kind of makeup, which is very, like, give it to the OGs, obviously, like K-Beauty inspired this doll-like, like painting on the freckles, you know, the highlighter at the end of the nose, like very, very hand painted type of vibe. Yeah, like the tagline for Flower Nose is live your fairy tales. Yeah. She was a fairy. Oh my gosh. That's going, that's all I can think about.

38:02A hundred percent. And it's just really fun. It's really fun. And I think, you know, I've been trying, I've been wanting to cover it all year, but there's just never a good time. And now here we are. Yeah, great. Perfect Amazon tie-in. I think Flower Nose really popularized cloud lip creams, apparently, is what I learned. Yeah, the Flower Nose has a cloud lip product that they were, it's one of their top sellers. Yeah, exactly. So that's how I discovered it. So you can go to their website and we'll link to it, but it shows what the finish looks like. It's really this, again, doll-like, very cloudy, diffused color.

38:42Okay, we've covered makeup, we've covered skincare, any other little treasures that you're coveting for Amazon Prime Day, Carlene? What I really want to tell you about is a true innovation. Okay. This is ePhD bond repair nail treatment. Great. It is 20 % off for Prime Day. So normally it's$20 US, $27.50 in Canada. The Prime Day price in the US,$16. Run, don't walk to pick this up, everybody. EPHD is from the same parent company as Epre and that's E-P-R-E-S, which I've talked about in the past. It is an amazing hair treatment using that whole bond building technology. It's a spray in and it was created by one of the original founders and chemists behind Olaplex.

39:31So this is like next generation Olaplex, right? I absolutely love that hair treatment. The proof is truly in the pudding. It makes your hair like silk. And so what now he's gone and done is use that same patented biodiffusion technology that's in the hair products and put it into a nail product. So in the same way, it's meant to strengthen the nail. It's like a top coat. It's got that patented molecule. And it basically works by putting like this cross link into your nails that's going to strengthen like brittle, weak, splitting nails, which is what I have. So if you're like me and you're taking a break from shellac, gels, all of that during the summer, which is what I'm doing, but my nails just shred.

40:15They absolutely shred. This stuff is bomb. You can use it every day for seven days for an intensive repair, then just use it a couple times a week for maintenance. And everybody that if you're just listening, it kind of looks like a nail polish. You put it on exactly like nail polish and it feels like a base coat when you put it on seven days. You can see the before and afters on their website. It's like insane. But they also say that you get results after one use. I thought that was total BS. But sure enough, I used it one time. I had no splitting, chipping or breaking for like four or five days after one use.

40:51That never happens to you. We've been kind of starved for this category of nail repair in terms of, like you said, innovation. And there's plenty of great brands out there at the drugstore, Essie, Sally Hansen, but a lot of those are just addressing, frankly, like cosmetic, cosmetic treatments of the nail, the nail plate. You can make it look better, but is it really like healing it as it were, or is it really actually repairing? So I have this product. I haven't tried it yet because I haven't taken my nail polish off. However, I think it's absolutely brilliant. And because it is a bit more of an investment, why not save 20 %?

41:26Absolutely. Now, here's another one that I would say is a run, don't walk situation. And also kind of that I can't believe it's on Amazon. It's called Maison Louis Marie. This is a fragrance brand that I've been dying to talk about because I love it so much. And this is one of those French perfume brands where they started out in like the 1790s in France. There's a whole story behind it where it was like this guy and he worked with these botanicals and created these fragrances. And several generations later, his like somebody in his ancestry, like his great granddaughters or something like that, restarted the brand with her husband.

42:10Is that the Louis or the Marie? I'm not entirely sure I'm trying to speed around this but anyways they're based out of LA and their fragrances are so special it's like a modern version of French perfumery more affordable I would say they have eau de parfums and they also have perfume oils which I actually prefer and for some mystery that's beyond me I find that these are less cloying and they get at my sensitivities less with these. So what I'm going to recommend as a shout out is the Maison Louis Marie Natural Roll-On Perfume Oil five piece discovery set. It's$55 in the U.S.,$77 in Canada. That's going to give you five of their best selling fragrances so you can try them.

42:57And I love a perfume oil, especially in the summer. It's that close to your skin. There's something about how it drives with your sweat where it's just so beautiful. I'm going to spray this one since this is a hair mist. I'm I'm going to put it on my hair. But guys, this is what's not on Amazon yet. It's just newly launching, but I still need to let everybody know because I'm so obsessed with these. They just launched hair and body mists. OK, they are only$28 U.S.,$40 in Canada, even though they are 100 mils or 3.4 fluid ounces. And this is like the whole sold a genero. We know that these hair and body mists have taken off.

43:35so imagine that but a fine fragrance version like a french perfumey these smell so much like chiquer and like an actual perfume but they are they're water-based they're alcohol-free they're enriched with hyaluronic acid seaweed extract so it's giving you those like skincare qualities but it just smells so nice and even though it's there's no alcohol I actually find that these last. Okay. Like I did a test and at the end of the day, I was like, can still smell it. And because it's this light mist, spray it on your legs, spray it on your arms, in your hair. It's not overwhelming. These are, honestly, this is the perfume of the summer to me.

44:15This is it. Cool. Yeah. What about you, Jill? What else before we let people go is like, they have to know. Well, we did tease a couple of big promos. I'm going to tease that Whey is on Amazon. A lot of people may not know that. 20 % off every single one of their products. Awesome. up and they just launched their they just relaunched their dry shampoo you know the scents are amazing right now Christophe Robins which we don't hear about a lot we don't talk about a lot but it's always in my shower lost from the past their sea salt shampoo is so amazing for the scalp and in the summer I love it and it's 20 to 30 percent off everything Christophe Robins including guys they have a color depositing hair mask that I will be using it's amazing for toning brassiness.

45:02Okay, cool. They have five shades. So if you're someone you're like not going to see your colorist, get this. And then second to last, Dyson, they are putting their Dyson Airstrike on promo for 14 % off. So in Canada, it's normally$700. So we will take the 14 % off. Okay. Absolutely. Basically no tax on that one. Yeah, exactly. But that's like$100 savings. Yeah, pretty much. Okay, well, it's that moment. Thank you for that, Jill. Everybody needs that PSA. Now it's the time has come for our deepest discount of the hour. So mine is the COSRX. I'm going to go ahead and recommend the Advanced Snail 92 All-in-One Cream, which is 46 % off everybody, almost fully half price.

45:50Everybody already knows about the Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence, right? We've talked about it before. We've actually sold a bunch of those from our storefront because everybody loves it. It's also, by the way, 48 % off. That's almost half off. So this is about$26 regularly US. So it's probably close to probably about 30 Canadian. I think not as many people know about this. This is a lightweight moisturizing cream meant to give you like a glowy skin effect. And I do love the idea of this because the snail mucin, I always equate that to like healing, calming. It's great for my rosacea. It's also good when you've gotten a bit too much sun.

46:34When you want that. Couldn't be me. I know, but you want that like cooling effect, but also from overheating. You know what I mean? Like not even just being directly in the sun. So it really has that just like super hydrating. It's got hyaluronic acid in it as well. I used it this morning under makeup. A little goes a long way, but again, like a night cream in the summer, you want something more lightweight and fresh to it, this is it. About two summers ago or three summers ago, I had this sent to me and I actually emptied it one summer, but I used it in the daytime. It's really kind of funny to apply because it almost has like a mucusy texture.

47:10I know. Where it's like when you open the lid, it like it looks like silly putty where it kind of goes. Yeah. Here, I'll show it to you guys. Yeah. Yeah. It's so true. It's like it's almost like if you accidentally turned it upside down on your counter and it all spill out because it's like so the texture's not runny but it's like visc. No it's like that and it's not sticky either but it really does feel like mucus you know and that's because it is infused with 92 percent snail mucin which is that snail secretion filtrate and don't worry guys it even says here on their website that no snails have been harmed in the making of this product.

47:50It says snail mucin is obtained in a safe and environmentally friendly way in a favorite environment of snails. Amazing. Which is cute. I just imagine them all on this little snail farm where they're like crawling across the mesh. I've seen the video of it, guys. They're just walking and then they collect the secretion. It's like we're cleaning up their poop. They're not being squeezed or anything. Don't worry. Jill, what's your deepest discount? It's so fun. I love Cosrx, by the way. I really think they're like the pioneers of K-Beauty and so many other products I love. My final product that I'm going to talk about is the deepest discount that I found.

48:23And it's a product that is half price. And that is from Maine. Maine Hair Tools, founded by Jen Atkin. It's new to Amazon. And their Maine Maintain the Waves hair kit is normally$100 and you can get it for$50. Amazing. And so that includes the base. So she has like the power base. And then it's like one of those beach waver things. It's like the three barrels. Yeah, the three prongs. So you can get that. And I find because it's actually developed by a hairstylist, it's even though it's inexpensive, the heat and like I've tried many of the hair tools and the quality is there. It stacks up against a lot of tools that are a lot more expensive.

49:06And so I just wanted to shout that out because... Beach waves for everyone. and I think possibly there might be other deals gonna be on there too but the branding is just so fun and they have a travel hairdryer, everyone that is the perfect size and I do travel with it I need this for Italy with an adapter, of course yeah happy summer to everyone enjoy, we all deserve it happy shopping on Amazon and every single thing that we mentioned here today by the way, you can find on our website we're linking to it And in our show notes, we will link to our storefronts.
