Amazon Prime Day 2022 is incoming, so veteran beauty sleuths, stand to attention. Forget what you thought you knew: Amazon Prime Day isn’t just for vacuum deals, mattress deals, and discounted tech and coffee machines.
As one of the internet’s biggest sales of the year, Amazon Prime Day is actually a treasure trove of goodness for those who are like magpies for luxury beauty and haircare. The retail giant’s flagship sale serves up a huge range of discounts across brands like GHD, thisworks, Revlon, Elizabeth Arden and CeraVe, so it’s worth getting acquainted.
Here’s everything we know so far about Amazon Prime Day 2022 – including the dates, best Amazon Prime Day deals and how to take part.
What is Amazon Prime Day?
ICYMI, Amazon Prime Day is Amazon’s flagship shopping event and their biggest sale of the year. It was initially started as a one-day celebration of Amazon’s 20th anniversary back in 2015, and it lasts for 48-hours (with plenty of early Amazon Prime Day deals dropping as a warm-up event). On par with Black Friday and Cyber Monday, some might say.
Amazon Prime Day 2020 was the retailer’s most successful to date (we’ve got lockdown to thank for that). Amazon delivered more than a million deals across the two-day period, and sales surpassed £2.5 *billion* (!) across 19 countries – a number which was up 60% compared to the year before. In 2021, Amazon Prime Day was described by the brand as “hugely successful,” with more than 250 million items being purchased by Prime members worldwide. Rest assured, Amazon Prime Day 2022 is set to be big news.
