Amazon is our go-to for last-minute gifting, but the retail giant is no slouch when it comes to early holiday shopping. The best early Amazon Black Friday deals can currently be found on the site’s Epic Deals page, which refreshes around the clock. Highlights of the sale so far include must-have items like AirPods, Echo Dots, and Instant Pots, all of which are available with eye-catching (and, in most cases, extremely time-sensitive) discounts.
As is usually the case with Amazon sales, you don’t want to wait on this one—or lose time scrolling through page after page of markdowns. From fitness to kitchen appliances to beauty products, below, we’ve selected some of the standout categories and items that you can snap up right now, ranging from Le Creuset cookware to Revlon volumizing brushes to robot vacuums to Tuft & Needle mattresses. Read on to find the best early Amazon Black Friday deals that are live for a limited time, and thank yourself later when you can take a breather on actual Black Friday (and Cyber Monday, and maybe even the rest of the holiday shopping season)

You should definitely grab a few moisturizers and masks during this fantastic sale, but if you leave room in your cart for only one beauty item, we just might nudge you toward the Revlon One-Step Hair Dryer and Volumizer, which rid one SELF writer of bad hair days for good.
CeraVe Moisturizing Cream
This cream includes both of Dr. Mudgil’s favorite eczema ingredients—hyaluronic acid and ceramides—which are very hydrating, he says. “It’s super mild and great for all skin types, even those with eczema.” An added bonus? The cost-effective large container will last you a long time.
