Black Friday feels different this year. Is different this year. To put it cleanly, most U.S. small businesses have had a doozy of a time, making this the year-of-years to, please, not “give Christmas to Amazon,” as the saying goes. We’re using our budding voice to spread love and support small businesses.
Our editors scoured the internets for the best in Black Friday beauty deals, aiming primarily for small businesses in the clean beauty space.
Whether we call it by different names—Black Friday, Green Friday, Small Business Saturday, or Cyber Monday—and whether each of these businesses is truly “small,” something we can all be certain of is they aren’t Amazon, and they aren’t Walmart.
Explore. Enjoy. Spread love and support small businesses.
