You may have noticed some posts from our friends at the Strategist on the Cut. They’ll be dropping in every now and again, sharing their expertise on the basics you don’t have time to research and the weird and wonderful things you don’t yet know you need.
It’s a good day to be a beauty lover on a budget, because I found a ton of skin care on sale today. Sephora and Ulta are offering daily deals, tons of Strategist-approved products are 20 percent off at Dermstore, and I spotted the Laneige lip mask on sale at Ban.do. But if your bathroom cabinet is full, there are also sitewide sales going on at both Brooklinen and Levi’s. And as always, make sure to sign up for our email newsletter for even more sales coverage — including five extra deals each Friday hand-selected by yours truly.
Tula Skincare Hydrating Day and Night Cream
Tula’s moisturizer is half off at Sephora and Ulta — but only until midnight tonight. (You can check out the rest of the stuff on sale this weekend here.) It “absorbs super quickly and makes your skin look nice and quenched without appearing greasy,” writes our beauty columnist Rio.

Brooklinen Classic Percale Duvet Cover – Full/Queen
Our favorite duvet cover is 20 percent off at both Amazon and Brooklinen. (Note that you’ll find more pattern and color options at Brooklinen.) Senior editor Winnie Yang, who’s had one for years, says the percale is “smooth and soft” and “feels cool and never clammy.”

Brooklinen Super-Plush Robe
Another best-in-class pick is the brand’s signature bathrobe, which our fashion writer calls “exceptionally fluffy”; she has fallen asleep while wearing it on multiple occasions.

EltaMD Foaming Facial Cleanser
This EltaMD face wash has been on my wish list for a while, as it’s our top pick for sensitive, acne-prone skin. It’s recommended by dermatologists (including my own) and contains bromelain — an enzyme found in pineapple — to reduce inflammation caused by acne, as well as apple amino acids to hydrate the skin.
$35 at Amazon

Vital Proteins Collagen Coffee Creamer
Take your collagen supplement in your morning coffee with this creamer (from one of our favorite protein-powder brands) that comes in three flavors: vanilla, mocha, and coconut.

Logitech Combo Touch iPad Pro Keyboard Case – 12.9-Inch
Our tech writer’s favorite iPad case that includes a detachable keyboard is this one from Logitech. It has a hard case that protects the back and sides of the iPad, plus an adjustable kickstand that can prop the tablet up at nearly any viewing angle.

NuFACE Mini+ Starter Kit
The jawline-snatching NuFace is on sale again for the first time in a while. It uses low-level electrical currents to lift and firm the skin, and if you’re consistent about it, the effects compound over time.

Unsun Emollient Rich Hand Cream SPF 15
