Go outside for Memorial Day (and wear SPF). Or stay inside and browse some of the many excellent online sales happening this holiday. One of them is Dermstore’s annual sale, happily coinciding with the official beginning of summer. Dermstore wanted to make this really easy for you, so they made the code SUMMER to get 20 percent off a huge selection of very good beauty products between now and May 28. Here are some of our favorites to help you get started.

(was $28, now 21% off)
Almost every day, I’m asked to recommend a mascara that doesn’t smudge. Santa isn’t real and unicorns were actually hideous, but it’s okay to believe in a bit of magic because this mascara is the real deal. It coats your lashes in little elongating tubes, giving them a pretty, clean, fanned-out effect with no clumping or smearing. Removal is super-easy and won’t result in any lash casualties. All you need is a bit of warm water. This is one of those never-on-sale products, so you’re going to want to jump on it. —Kathleen Hou, beauty director
