The Fourth of July is special for a lot of reasons, which include, but aren't limited to, gathering friends and family together, spending time outside (preferably by the beach, the pool, or any other body of water), and preparing and eating lots of good food. But there's another, albeit lesser-known, reason why we think July 4 is so special, and it of course pertains to beauty...
Here it is: a multitude of beauty brands hold massive mid-summer sales on July 4 (and the following weekend), so, yeah, we can celebrate the birth of our nation and also score discounts on popular products. It's a win-win. This year it's no different. Some of our favorite brands, such as Benefit Cosmetics, The Detox Market, Elemis, Lime Crime, are holding special Independence Day promotions.
