It's that time again — the fourth annual Amazon Prime Day (aka Black Friday in July) is upon us. And if last year's deals are any indicator the best Amazon Prime Day beauty sales will be worth stocking up on.

This year, Prime day officially starts at 3 p.m. on Monday, July 16, 2018 with new deals going live as often as every five minutes.

Not a Prime Member? Sign up here for a free 30-day trial, plus you'll get access to all of today's deals.

If this is your very first Prime Day, congratulations — you are about to gain exclusive access to some of the best beauty deals and weird but genius products you'll see all year. This is the time to stock up on a few extra concealers and powders that you know you'll need in a few months. It's also the perfect opportunity to try out that lipstick shade or formula you're not sure is quite right for you or to upgrade your skincare collection and switch over to all of those Korean beauty products you've been hearing so much about.

Starting on Monday, July 16, Bustle will be keeping track of the best deals worth snagging on Prime Day 2018, so be sure to watch this space for the latest. But for now, check out the deals from last year to get an idea of what is in store.
