This is my fourth year covering Prime Day, so I've learned to be pretty cynical about pre-sale discounts. But looking through the current beauty markdowns, a handful of these early prices actually match — if not beat — the deals we saw during June's Prime Day event.

Amazon's October Prime Big Deal Days sale runs Oct. 6 through 7, but if you want to restock your essentials now, here are the best beauty deals you can shop today, sorted from least to most expensive in every section.

Why we like it

You don't need to drop $400+ on a high-end multi-styler just to get a good blowout at home. The Shark FlexStyle multi-styler system is a great way to do it all at home for much less. As part of an early Prime Big Deal Days sale, Amazon has the system marked down to $229, which is a massive $140.99 savings. The FlexStyle comes with four heat and three airflow settings, in addition to the great accessories. There's a styling concentrator, auto-wrap curlers, oval brush, paddle brush, and diffuser.
