'Tis the season to get glammed up for holiday parties, family photos, and work events. And what better way to celebrate this time of year than by treating yourself to a beauty item you've had your eye on? Thankfully, Black Friday deals are here with heavily discounted (and rarely discounted) makeup galore. 

I've rounded up sales from our favorite makeup brands and spotlighted the best Black Friday makeup deals on products we love. From cult-favorite foundations and dazzling eyeshadow palettes to best-selling lip glosses, these bargains are hard to beat.

If you need some inspiration, these are the products we're planning on purchasing:

I'm most excited to pick up a Pat McGrath Mothership Palette because of the amazing shadow formulation that is easy enough for beginners yet sophisticated enough for the makeup experts. Looking forward to restocking some everyday staples like the Tower 28 Beauty ShineOn Lip Jelly, a balmy but never sticky lip gloss from one of my favorite clean beauty brands, as well as scoring great deals on the dewy Stretch Balm Concealer and cult-classic Boy Brow during the Glossier Black Friday sale. And you can't go wrong with bestselling brands like Fenty Beauty, Hourglass Cosmetics, and Charlotte Tilbury.
