Check Amazon, there are plenty of deals on Lancome.

Honestly, I used to camp out for the Lancome sales every year but the results just havent been worth the hype or the price tag lately. I spent a fortune on their serum last year and unfortunately it didnt do much besides make my face feel slightly smoother for an hour. The performance just isnt there compared to what else is out there now.

• Lancome Advanced Genifique Radiance Boosting Serum: Feels luxurious and sinks in fast, but it relies way too much on alcohol denat which ended up drying out my skin over time. Not worth the splurge even at 50 percent off.
• Missha Time Revolution Night Repair Ampoule 5G: I switched to this and the results were actually visible. It has way more ferments and actually helped with my texture issues without the steep brand markup.
• Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Multi-Recovery Complex: This one is better for hydration than Genifique, tho it stays a bit tacky on the skin which I dont love. I kinda regret getting sucked into the Black Friday frenzy last time. If you care more about the bottle on your vanity then go for it, but for actual skin results, I had a pretty disappointing experience with the Lancome line.

Hey! Honestly, from my experience, Lancôme's own site often has the best deals AND exclusive gift sets. Be careful, though – things sell out FAST. I would suggest signing up for their email list now; they usually give early access!

Hey! While Lancôme's site is great (like reply #1 said), DON'T overlook smaller authorized retailers online! I've had fantastic luck with sites like Bloomingdale's or Nordstrom Rack during Black Friday. They sometimes have *unadvertised* Lancôme deals, or even better, clearance items leading up to the big day.

Also, price tracking tools are your friend! Set up alerts on CamelCamelCamel (for Amazon, obvs) or Honey (covers tons of sites) for the specific Génifique serum you want. That way, you'll get notified of any price drops *before* Black Friday even hits. Plus, consider buying a discounted gift set that *includes* the Génifique – sometimes the cost-per-ml is lower than buying the serum alone! It's a bit more work, but worth it to avoid the Black Friday frenzy. Good luck!

Hey! I totally get the Black Friday stress – it's intense! I remember one year I was dead-set on getting a specific skincare set and spent hours refreshing pages only to miss out. Ugh!

Okay, so here's my two cents on Lancôme Black Friday from a *budget* perspective: Don't sleep on the value sets leading UP to Black Friday. Seriously. Sometimes, those are *better* deals than the actual day-of discounts. Retailers like Macy's and Ulta often release these sets in October/early November, and they let you snag your favorite items for way less overall.

Also, keep an eye out for gift-with-purchase offers. I've scored amazing Lancôme freebies that way, which helps offset the cost of the product I actually wanted! That said, I would personally keep an eye on the Lancôme USA outlet, they sometimes clear out older stock at amazing prices in the run-up to black Friday. Hope this helps!

Hey! I totally get the Black Friday planning! Honestly, instead of *just* focusing on Lancôme, might want to consider comparing their deals to other brands like Estee Lauder or even some higher-end drugstore brands like L'Oreal. Sometimes you can get a similar product for way cheaper.

Be careful not to get tunnel vision on one brand. Make sure to check out sites like Temptalia closer to the date for product comparisons. I've found it super useful in the past. Good luck!

Hey! Just a heads-up, be super careful about buying from unofficial sources. Counterfeit makeup is a HUGE problem, especially around Black Friday. I'd stick to Lancôme's site, Sephora, Ulta, or major department stores to be safe!
