What's Worth Buying at Amazon's Summer Beauty HaulAmazon


"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."

Truth be told, it feels like there's a new beauty sale happening just about every week: the Sephora Savings Event, Ulta's Semi-Annual Beauty Event, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, and now, the Amazon Summer Beauty Haul, happening now through May 19. But with so many sales happening back to back, knowing what to shop when can get a little (er, a lot) confusing. To help you make sense of it all, I've pestered my Cosmo coworkers about what they'll be buying during the Amazon Summer Beauty Haul.

This isn't your traditional Amazon sale with flashy discounts on big-name brands. You'll need to wait until Prime Day for that. Instead, the Amazon Summer Beauty Haul works like this: Spend over $50 on beauty products shipped and sold by Amazon, and you'll automatically receive $10 off your next Amazon purchase. To ensure the products you're shopping are included in the sale, apply the 'Eligible for Free Shipping' and 'Seller > Amazon' filters to your search—then use the code BEAUTYHAUL at checkout to score your $10 credit.

Shop the Amazon Summer Beauty Haul

The promotion applies to both full-price and sale products, making it the perfect opportunity to stock up on summer essentials like sunscreen and aloe vera, upgrade personal care products like toothbrushes and razors, or test out one of our Holy Grail Award winners. Below, you'll find 15 skincare, makeup and hair products Cosmo staffers will be adding to our carts before the Amazon Summer Beauty Haul ends this Sunday.

UV Clear Tinted Face Sunscreen SPF 46

"The OG EltaMD UV Clear is my go-to face sunscreen for acne-prone skin (and every single derm I've ever interviewed says the same thing—seriously). So when they recently launched this tinted version, it immediately went right in my Amazon cart for summer," says Beth Gillette, beauty editor. "I'm picturing slathering this on just before the pool to give my skin hella UV protection and even out my skin tone."

True Match Lumi Glotion

Kendall Jenner's Met Gala glow came courtesy of her MUA's go-to L’Oréal Paris Lumi Glotion, a natural-looking glow enhancer that works just as well solo as it does under makeup. Alix Earle is also a known fan.

Wave Artist Deep Waver

TikTok convinced me to buy this Bed Head deep waver a few summers ago, and I've been getting compliments on my beach waves ever since. Depending on your technique, this bad boy can produce everything from effortlessly toused mermaid waves to a loose Y2K crimp.

Press-On False Eyelash Clusters Kit

I can't apply traditional falsies to save my life, buuut I can successfully press on these glueless eyelash clusters. They go underneath your lash line instead of on top, which sounds intimidating but is actually super easy thanks to the application tool included. Add one or two to your outer corners to make your eyes *pop* in wedding photos.

Aloe Vera 100% Gel

Even beauty editors get sunburns, and when we do, we slather ourselves with pure aloe vera gel. On sale for less than $5, this alcohol-free aloe on Amazon is a no-brainer add-to-cart ahead of summer.

Bloom Eau de Parfum

If you're a fan of floral perfumes, you'll fall head over heels for Gucci Bloom. It's got neroli and white florals like jasmine, orange blossom, and tuberose, but it doesn't smell like your grandma's perfume thanks to the addition of citrus and sandalwood.

Ouchless Clear Elastic Hair Ties

Believe me, once you start using these clear elastics for your braids and half-ponys, you'll never ruin your hairdo with thick black hair ties ever again. Not only are they invisible, but they're easy to snip off (carefully!) when tangles inevitably happen.

Vanilla Cashmere Shea Better Body Lotion

"If you want people to literally stop you and ask why you smell so good, you need this lotion," says Daisy Maldonado, associate shopping editor. "It reminds me of a delicious vanilla cupcake you want to take a bite out of and it will have you feeling like the yummiest thing on legs all day. I never have to deal with that sticky residue I absolutely hate, and instead am left with super moisturized skin by way of its seven nourishing oils and butters."

Self Tan Classic Bronzing Mousse

As a pasty girlie, I've always rushed to get as tan as possible as fast as possible come summertime. In the past, this led to sunburns and skin damage, but now I reach for this St. Tropez self-tanner. The natural-looking glow it gives makes me feel way less pressured to overdo it in the sun.

Gentle Skin Cleanser

"If you're looking for an effective, no-frills face wash, this cleanser right here is the answer to your prayers," says Jasmine Hyman, assistant shopping editor. "It's super lightweight, so I love using it in my morning skincare regimen. It leaves my skin super hydrated and soft without that stripping feeling that some harsh cleansers provide. And did I mention Sabrina Carpenter uses it too?"

Touch-Up Disposible Razors

Pro 1000 Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush

"If you’re going to upgrade from a manual toothbrush to an electric one anytime soon, let it be this one. I love that it has three different cleaning modes and can automatically sense if you’re over-brushing—aka protecting your gums and enamel from getting damaged," says Samantha Jones, commerce editor. "You can even swap out the brush head for any of Oral-B’s options, making it more customized to your specific needs."

Makeup Remover Ultra-Soft Cleansing Towelettes

I keep an individually wrapped makeup wipe in my bag at all times. Why? Bc these bestselling Neutrogena towelettes have taken off my makeup before spin classes, removed smudged mascara from my under-eyes at pool parties, removed thick layers of SPF after beach days, and cleaned up countless glitter eyeshadow experiments gone wrong.

Murumuru Butter Bronzer

"The Physician's Formula Murumuru Butter Bronzer is a cult classic for a reason," says Sam Olson, assistant editor. "This personally goes down as one of my favorite drugstore bronzers of all time because it's smooth, pigmented, and easy to blend. Plus, it's fair-skin friendly and warms up your skin without looking orange. You'll not only look like you hopped off the plane with a gorgeous glow from Tulum thanks to its subtle shimmery particles—the coconut scent will make you smell like it, too."
