What is Amazon Prime Day and how does it work?

Amazon Prime Day is Amazon’s biggest sale of the year, and it’s packed with amazing discounts on everything from beauty to tech and Amazon homeware deals. The catch? It’s only for Amazon Prime members, so you’ll need to be signed up to get your hands on the best deals. Think of it like a mini Black Friday just for Prime members, with flash sales, limited-time offers, and even early access to some bargains. If you love beauty, it’s the perfect time to treat yourself or stock up on your favourites without spending a fortune.

When is Amazon Prime Day 2025?

Amazon Prime Day 2025 is finished - having ran from Tuesday 8 July to Friday 11 July. The sale took up four whole days this time around, which is two days longer than usual. It gave us something new to get excited about (along with all the deals, of course). You had plenty of time to take advantage of those amazing beauty bargains, plus deals across all your favourite categories, like home, garden, tech and pets. So whether you're looking to stock up on foundation, take advantage of garden and furniture deals to give your outdoor space a spruce up, or the latest kitchen appliance discounts to upgrade your cooking setup on a budget, now's a great time to shop. these last-minute Amazon deals.

When does Prime Day end 2025?

Amazon Prime Day 2025 ended on July 11th, but there are still deals to be had (!)

Which beauty brands take part in Prime Day?

A huge mix of beauty brands get involved in Amazon Prime Day, so you'll really be spoilt for choice on deals. Everything from affordable highstreet staples to premium favourites are heavily discounted; big names like CeraVe, Maybelline, Garnier and L’Oréal drop prices across skincare and makeup must-haves. Those more on the luxe side, like Elemis, Olaplex and even ghd, feature limited-time discounts, too.

Is Prime Day better than Black Friday?

Whether Prime Day is better than Black Friday really depends on what you're shopping for, but when it comes to beauty, Amazon Prime Day definitely gives Black Friday a run for its money. One of the best parts? You don’t have to wait until November. With Amazon Prime Day landing in July, it’s the perfect chance to stock up on your summer must-haves. Think SPF, lightweight skincare, and warm-weather makeup picks.

Why is Amazon Prime not always next day?

Wondering why your parcel hasn't come yet? Well, Amazon Prime's one-day delivery isn't guaranteed due to item availability, location, and potential disruptions.

Do Prime Day deals change every day?

Day to day, products don't seem to change, but you'll likely find that prices may change every day.

Are you an Amazon Prime Member?

Just checking, have you joined Amazon Prime yet? Amazon's biggest beauty deals and all the other Prime Day discounts are exclusive to Prime members, so you'll need a membership to take advantage of all the bargains over the next couple of days.
