Just like Prime Day (you know, that other big Amazon sale), plenty of major players are taking part in the spring sale festivities: Summer Fridays, Charlotte Tilbury, Medicube, Kiehl's, Nest New York, Olay, and many more. With the sale kicking off tomorrow, we tapped Refinery29’s beauty editors to see which products they’re adding to cart — shop them all ahead.

Summer Fridays ShadeDrops Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Mineral Sunscreen Milk
"This is one of my favorite lightweight mineral sunscreens, and it's rare to spot it at a discount. Just like the name suggests, it has the most hydrating, milky texture, but never feels heavy or breaks me out." — Karina Hoshikawa, Senior Writer

Round Lab Birch Juice Moisturizing UV LOCK Sunscreen SPF 45
"Last year, a friend brought this sunscreen back from Korea, and I finished it so fast — it’s that good. It’s so lightweight that it feels just like a milky moisturizer, yet it boasts SPF 45 broad‑spectrum protection, guarding against UVA (the rays that cause premature aging and skin cancer) and UVB (responsible for sunburn). It makes my skin glow, feels comfortable, and sits perfectly under makeup. I used to genuinely look forward to applying it every morning, and I’m convinced it made my skin smoother. Now that I know it’s stocked on Amazon — and 35% off — I’ll be purchasing a few tubes myself." — Jacqueline Kilikita, Beauty Director

Medicube Booster Pro
"I’ve been using this LED tool religiously since receiving it, and it’s been something of a savior for my acne‑prone skin. Whenever I feel a large hormonal breakout coming on, I zap it with the red‑light function, and I’m convinced it helps bring down inflammation. It’s also a great tool for maximizing your skincare thanks to the microcurrent and gentle vibration, which help serums and moisturizers penetrate the skin on a deeper level. I love using it at night, a couple of hours before bed." — Jacqueline Kilikita, Beauty Director
Medicube Booster Pro, $, available at Amazon
IGK Disco Disco Clear Gloss Shine Spray
"IGK stylers are among my most-used, and the Disco Disco Shine Spray is my latest favorite from the brand. My colorist, Chase Kusero (the “K” in IGK), always says that brunettes — especially dark brunettes like me — really benefit from shine-boosting products to avoid hair looking dull or one-dimensional. This lightweight finisher is like a glossy top coat for your hair; after I’m done styling, I mist it all over and gently brush through to evenly distribute it through my lengths. Not only does it create an instant glass hair effect, but it also adds UV protection to prevent color fade and damage. At 25% off during Amazon’s spring sale, I have no excuse but to stock up." — Karina Hoshikawa, Senior Writer

Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Light Wand
"My makeup routine isn’t complete without Charlotte’s Beauty Light Wand in Peachgasm. The peachy blush‑meets‑highlighter instantly breathes life into my face. I tap it onto my cheekbones, nose, forehead, and chin, and it lifts my complexion in seconds thanks to the finely milled pearlescent particles. Even though it’s a cream‑based formula, I never have issues with it transferring or fading throughout the day — it stays put until I decide to remove it. I’ve had my tube for months, but I’ll be stocking up in the sale, as it’s going to be 30% off, making it $30.80." — Jacqueline Kilikita, Beauty Director
Charlotte Tilbury Light Wand Liquid Highlighter, $, available at Amazon
First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Pads
"An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure — that's what these exfoliating pads are. I use them on my face and body to brighten acne scars, gently smooth rough texture, and keep breakouts at bay. I'm convinced the secret to their magic is a one-two punch of alpha and beta hydroxy acids, which target a variety of skin concerns. These are a real find at 20% off, so don't miss out!" — Karina Hoshikawa, Senior Writer

Vacation Classic Lotion SPF 50 (3 Pack)
"This is one of my all-time favorite sunscreen lotions, and not just because it smells like a piña colada. (Although that doesn’t hurt, to be fair.) The texture is silky and luxurious — not greasy or heavy like so many sunscreens I’ve tested — thanks to hydrating ingredients like vitamin E, aloe vera, and coconut oil. It genuinely leaves my skin feeling softer and more moisturized, which makes reapplying throughout the day feel less like a treat. Because it uses chemical (not mineral) UV filters, it goes on completely invisible, with zero white cast — even though you’re getting SPF 50 protection. The trio already delivers solid value IMO, but with an extra 30% off, it’s more than enough to keep me covered for the months ahead." — Karina Hoshikawa, Senior Writer

Goop Beauty Microderm Body Polish
"In my house, no everything shower is complete without exfoliating my body with a scrub. I have keratosis pilaris (those little red bumps that can appear on arms, legs, or tush), so gentle, regular exfoliation is a must for me. Goop Beauty’s Microderm Body Polish combines physical exfoliation via fine (not abrasive) salt, quartz, and garnet granules, as well as hibiscus flower acid (a mild alpha hydroxy acid, aka AHA) for touchably smoother, softer skin after one use. It also brightens skin over time with vitamin C-rich kakadu plum extract. Since it’s 25% off during Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, I’m buying two." — Karina Hoshikawa, Senior Writer

NuFace Trinity+
"A dermatologist friend of mine has waxed lyrical about NuFace for years — specifically the Mini — saying she never expected it to deliver the skin‑lifting and firming results it did. While the effects are temporary, she uses it before big occasions, and she’s convinced me that I need one, too. This Spring Sale, I know exactly which version I’m buying: the Trinity+. It’s essentially a professional facial in a DIY tool, with a red‑light function that stimulates collagen — the stuff that keeps skin supple and strong — plus a microcurrent attachment that works the muscles beneath the skin for a temporary sculpted effect. I plan to focus it on my cheekbones and jawline. If dermatologists love it, I know I will — and it’s 20% off." — Jacqueline Kilikita, Beauty Director
NuFACE Trinity+ Microcurrent Facial Device Kit, $, available at Amazon
Medicube Zero Pore Pads
"Last month, I tried $320 worth of Medicube skincare, and these pore pads were the standout for three key reasons. First, they’re pre‑soaked, so you don’t have to mess around with cotton pads or leaky toners. The little pair of tweezers also makes it easy to lift them out of the tub. Second, they’re packed with exfoliating lactic acid and salicylic acid, which help prevent breakouts and minimize skin texture. One side of the pad is slightly rougher for gentle manual exfoliation. And finally, the results speak for themselves: my skin has become clearer and smoother since using them. I’ve recommended them to countless friends with acne‑prone skin, and they’ll love that they’re 32% off in the Amazon Spring Sale — just $14.28 for 70 pads. Bargain!" — Jacqueline Kilikita, Beauty Director

Medicube PDRN Wrapping Mask
"This peel‑off mask is meant to be slept in, but I prefer to use it a few hours before a big occasion or night out because it makes my skin gleam better than any highlighter could. That’s thanks to collagen, which deeply moisturizes the skin, glycerin, which is equally quenching and helps smooth over rough, flaky patches, and ceramides, which act like glue between skin cells to keep them smooth, healthy, and supple rather than rough and dry. It goes over moisturizer, sealing all the goodness in. This spring sale, it’s 22% off, bringing it down to just $18.72. I’ve used it countless times and still haven’t made a dent in the tube because a little goes a very long way, but I simply have to stock up!" — Jacqueline Kilikita, Beauty Director
Medicube PDRN Pink Caffeine Wrapping Mask, $, available at Amazon
