10 Best Black Friday Sales in Singapore (2020)

black friday 2018

I want to say that Black Friday is the one annual shopping event that everyone saves up for, but let’s be real -— our bank accounts are kinda still bleeding from the 11:11 madness.

For the benefit of the suaku folks who are asking just what is Black Friday: Black Friday is actually an American shopping holiday. It is the day after Thanksgiving, marking the day people begin Christmas shopping. Black Friday was traditionally for offline stores, while the following Cyber Monday is for online stores.

This year, Black Friday is on 27 Nov 2020 — so if you haven’t got your shopping lists ready then you had better hurry get your act together.

Sephora Black Friday deals 2020 — up to 20% off 

As a full-time beauty junkie and hardcore Sephora fan, I’m a little disappointed with the Black Friday discounts that will start at the stroke of midnight on Nov 26. 

On Nov 26 and 27, enjoy 20% off with a minimum spend of $150 on online and in-store purchases. You can still get a discount, albeit a lower one at 15% off with no minimum spend.  

I say I’m disappointed because they have 20% off storewide sales quite often, so this pales in comparison. Nonetheless, if you have something urgent you need and can’t wait for a better sale, then go ahead. It’s most worth it to shop for cosmetics from brands like Dior, NARS and Urban Decay because these don’t typically go on sale at their own boutiques.
