Washing away all of the sweat, oil, and sunscreen at the end of a long day isn’t just great for your skin—it also feels pretty amazing. You’ll find several options on sale that can get the job done, but we recommend checking out Peace Out’s Pore Perfecting Cleanser. This 2024 SELF Healthy Beauty Award recipient feels creamy to the touch, and uses exfoliating agents to combat acne.
After cleansing your skin, you need to moisturize it. The SELF team put a bunch to the test for our 2024 Healthy Beauty Awards—one standout is Youth To The People’s Superfood Air-Whip Moisture Cream, which has a light texture that layers well with other skin care.

I didn’t think I’d be Running to repurchase a $48 cream, but here I am!” (Lucky for you, it’s just $36 during the sale.)
Serum, oils, and Treatment Deals
Treatments and serums can help with dryness, acne and discoloration. Tula’s 24-7 Ultra Hydration Serum is packed with three forms of hyaluronic acid to help your skin stay plump and smooth—you can slip this 2023 Healthy Beauty Award winner into your A.M. or P.M. routine (or both). We also have to mention Peace Out’s Skincare Acne Day Dots, another Healthy Beauty Awards standout. One tester said: “Out of all of the acne patches I’ve tried, these are some of the best! They’re thinner than others on the market, which makes them more comfortable to wear all day (or night, if you prefer to sleep with a patch on).”
It’s hard to beat a cool shower at the end of a hot summer day. But, it is even better if you use a scrub, soap, or serum that feels and smells like a spa. What’s our top pick? Youth To the People’s Superfood + Niacinamide Body Cleanser, a 2024 Healthy Beauty Awards favorite. “If I imagine what a rich person’s body wash would look like in their luxury bathroom, it’s this product,” one tester said. “My body felt super refreshed, revitalized, and hydrated after using this, and it’s become my new go-to.”
Finding a sunscreen that doesn’t make you feel sticky or look like Casper the Friendly Ghost isn’t impossible, but it might take some trial and error. We found some solid options during our 2024 Healthy Beauty Awards, including Kiehl’s Better Screen UV Serum. The lightweight formula glides on smoothly, and testers reported that it left their skin looking dewy.
Shampoo and Conditioner Deals
It’s not a joke: You can save 25% on almost all shampoos, conditioners and other beauty products at Sephora during the sale (with some exceptions). There are several shampoos and conditioners that we think you should rinse and repeat. If you’re searching for a set, we recommend Nécessaire’s The Shampoo and The Conditioner, both of which are formulated to avoid irritating sensitive scalps. The duo won SELF’s 2023 Healthy Beauty Awards testers over, who praised The Shampoo for its gentle but thorough clean and The Conditioner for softening and detangling hair in one swoop.
Sephora is changing up its makeup deals every day throughout the sale, but here are a few Healthy Beauty Award–winning products we recommend keeping an eye on. Some of our tried-and-trues: Kosas’ Brow Pop Nano that’ll add shape and definition, Saie’s Dew Blush for a fresh-from-the-sun flush, and Laura Mericer’s Real Flawless Weightless Concealer to touch up blemishes or dark circles.
