These Are The Geezers' Top 9 Black Friday Buys!
And you can still grab them all on sale!
The biggest shopping weekend of the year is here and I just wanted to say (gee) thanks for being part of this community and shopping with us!
Here’s a round up of the top 9 products Geezers threw down for over the last 48 hours during the Black Friday/Cyber Weekend sales! As of this email, all of these items can still be snagged at the sale price.
See something you want? Don’t wait!
Out Of Office Sweater by A New Day — Available at Target for $30. Sale Price: $18 on 11/26. No code needed. The softest, non-itchy mock-neck black sweater of your dreams, with “out of office” scrawled in cream above the left breast.
Maya Base by Maya Fragrances — Available at Maya from $40-$170. Sale Price: $28-$119 on 11/26. No code needed. Who is surprised by this? Not I! Easily the most purchased, most viral, most beloved product of 2022 in the Gee Thanks! community, the Maya Base fragrance is designed to mix with your skin’s chemistry to create a scent that is uniquely yours. If you love Base, try No.1, and if you love one or both, buy a candle so your house will smell like what I imagine Meryl Streep’s house smells like in “It’s Complicated”.
Here’s how a conversation at my family’s Thanksgiving went down:
Cousin 1: Who smells good?
Cousin 2: Me, I’m wearing Maya.
Cousin 3: Me. I’m wearing Maya, too.
Cousin 4: I’m also wearing Maya.
Cousin 1: *Buys Maya at the dinner table.*
❌SOLD OUT❌ Dr. Dennis Gross Peel Pads by Dr. Dennis Gross. Available at Dermstore for $88-$150. On Sale With Code GEETHANKS for $61-$104. I should have known that a 31% off code coupled with 20% cash back on Rakuten would be prime for an early weekend sell out, but I would be remiss not to share this product with you! A holy grail skincare product!
In the words of Geezer Sarah P, “my skin has never looked better, for real. I will rebuy these forever.”
Merit Flush Balm by Merit Beauty. $28 before the 20% off sale! $22 through 11/28. A Geezer bestseller this past summer, Merit was one of my fav brands turned pod sponsor turned one of the community’s fav brands! The creamy blush goes right on and you can buff it out with a brush or beauty blender or even your fingers. It can also be used as lip color; we love a two-in-one! My fair, warm-toned Irish skin loves the Terracotta shade.
Merit Clean Lash Tubing Mascara by Merit Beauty. $26 before the 20% off sale! $21 through 11/28. Y’all, I thought mascara just Wasn’t For Me. I was kind of right; traditional mascara that covers your lashes in pigment is not meant for me. My skin around my eyes is oily, so mascara racoons around my eyes.
Tubing mascara is different. Tubing mascara creates polymers around your lashes (#WomenInStem) (IDK WHAT IT MEANS!) and wraps around them. No smudging. Comes off with a washcloth and warm water. Now I wear mascara every single day. It’s wild. I am a new woman and now based on your purchases, so are many of you!
Tula Instant De-Puff Eye Renewal Serum by Tula: Usually $58, and on sale for $40 during the 30% off Black Friday sale through EOD 11/27. Second only to Maya Fragrances in 2022, this was a bestselling product all year long in our community. Apply the serum with a push of the cooling metal applicator. Have gotten dozens of messages saying this has been a lifesaver for puffy mornings and for a post-cry perk up. I will be rebuying myself so it’s definitely worth a try at this price if you haven’t already!
SALE ENDING SOON: Peace Out Retinol Stick for Eyes by Peace Out Skincare, $28 before the 30% off sale which brings it to $19. Nora said it got rid of her milia, and tons of other Geezers say they really see a difference when they use it. This burst out onto the scene over the summer and now that it’s on sale people are trying and rebuying.
The Medium Transport Tote by Madewell, $188 before the Black Friday 50% off sale which brings it to $94. Madewell’s Transport Totes are their longest lasting style, and have been around and beloved for years. It’s rare to see them on sale during any other time of the year so it’s not surprising that they are topping the list this Black Friday just like they did last Black Friday. Who can resist 50% off?
3 PRODUCTS TIED FOR NUMBER 1:
SALE ENDING SOON: The Peace Out Acne Stickers by Peace Out Skincare. Mega Pack is usually $69, but is $45 with the 30% off site wide sale. If you follow the pod on Instagram, you’ve seen me singing the praises of these acne dots. Now, YMMV because all of our skin is different. But I have tried them all and these are the ones that attack cystic flareups bubbling deep underneath the surface. I got a zit last week and realized I was out of these acne dots and ended up using a lesser brand’s version because I had them on hand. Did absolutely nothing for me. These are RIDE OR DIE for my zits. RIDE OR DIE.
Holiday Eye Balm Extravaganza 3-Piece Kit by Tula aka EYE XANAX. Usually $38-48 sold separately, then $60 for 3 as a bundle, now $42 for 3 with the 30% off site-wide sale. Buy them as stocking stuffers, buy them for yourself. Cooling balm (not serum, which is what the Instant De-Puff offers), and leaves your eyes looking bright and awake! A secret weapon.
Self-Care Sunday Mask by Tula, $48 usually and $33 with the 30% off site wide sale. Ladies and gents, there’s a new mask on the block and it’s a hit. The Self-Care Sunday Mask brings dull skin back to life and it’s gentle enough (and not messy enough!) to feel extra special to keep it on overnight and rinse it off the next day.
