The 129+ Absolute Best Black Friday Deals Worth Shopping

If you’ve been waiting all year to cross items off your wish list, or want to get your holiday shopping completed quickly, now’s your chance. Black Friday sales are almost over — so it’s the perfect time to shop some of the lowest prices of the year on tech, beauty products, apparel. As a reporter who’s covered this sale for five years, my number one tip when shopping holiday sales is to act fast: When you see something that catches your eye, add it to your cart and checkout. That’s because most of the best Black Friday deals don’t last very long.

To help make your experience as easy as possible, I combed through thousands of discounts to find the best Black Friday Deals actually worth shopping. Each one I recommend below is highly rated and at least 20% off. When possible, I ran deals through price trackers to make sure they’re at their lowest price in at least three months. I’m updating this list live throughout Black Friday with new discounts, price drops and additional promos.

Using this kitchen gadget helps you speed up prep time while cooking. It comes with three interchangeable blades to cut up ingredients, including dicers and slicers.

Crest 3D Whitestrips Professional Effects

4.6-star average rating from 3,592 reviews on Amazon

Crest’s whitening strips are coated with hydrogen peroxide, an ingredient that helps remove tooth stains and brighten your smile, according to dentists I spoke to.

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask

4.6-star average rating from 47,463 reviews on Amazon

I keep Lanegie’s berry lip mask on my nightstand and apply it before bed with the included applicator. While I’m sleeping, the coconut oil, shea butter and murumuru seed butter in its formula moisturize my lips so they’re soft and flake-free by the morning. You can wipe off any remaining product when you wake up, but I usually keep it on and use it as a lip balm.

Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream

4.6-star average rating from 3,769 reviews on Amazon

Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream is one of my go-to moisturizers year round. It’s made with squalane to hydrate and soften skin, as well as strengthen the skin barrier, according to the brand. I only need to use a little bit of cream to cover my face, and it absorbs quickly, leaving behind a lightweight, non-greasy feel. The moisturizer is suitable for all skin types — I have sensitive, combination, acne-prone skin, and this cream never causes irritation.

Color Wow Dream Coat Supernatural Spray

4.3-star average rating from 90,836 reviews on Amazon

“This is my go-to product when I style my hair,” says NBC Select updates editor Mili Godio. “I apply it before using a flat iron or blow dryer brush, and it leaves my hair looking smooth, shiny and frizz-free. It also doesn’t weigh down my fine hair like so many other heat protectants do.” The anti-frizz treatment also comes in a curly hair version that I use daily.

Waterpik Aquarius Water Flosser

4.6-star average rating from 142,752 reviews on Amazon

This water flosser cleans gums and removes plaque from teeth, similar to standard floss.

You can choose from 10 pressure settings, and the built-in timer keeps track of how long you’ve flossed for.

Blissy Silk Pillowcase

4.4-star average rating from 4,015 reviews on Amazon

“Blissy’s silk pillowcase is cooling, which is great since I’m a hot sleeper, and the soft fabric never irritates or tugs at my sensitive, rosacea-prone skin,” says Godio. “Compared to when I use a regular cotton pillowcase, my hair is also less frizzy when I wake up.” The silk pillowcase, which has a hidden zipper closure, comes in a variety of colors so you can choose one that matches your bedding.

CeraVe Skin Renewing Eye Cream

4.4-star average rating from 6,499 reviews on Amazon

How I found the best Black Friday deals

All of my recommendations above are based on NBC Select’s previous coverage and reporting. I also included products the NBC Select staff tested, including Wellness Award, Travel Award, Pet Award, Bed & Bath Award and Giftable Tech Award winners. All the deals I recommend are at least 20% off and highly rated with at least a 4.0-star average rating from hundreds of reviews. When possible, I ran deals through price trackers like CamelCamelCamel to ensure products are at their lowest price in at least three months.

Why trust NBC Select?

I’m a reporter at NBC Select who’s covered Black Friday and Cyber Monday since 2020. I’ve reported on the history of these holidays and spoken to experts about what you should buy and skip during major shopping events, like today’s. For this story, since not all Black Friday deals are worth it, I sifted through hundreds of on-sale products to find the best ones actually worth buying across key categories, like tech, travel, home, and kitchen.
