As a commerce editor, I’ve tested thousands of skincare products at this point in my career in all different categories. Serums, cleansers, fancy schmancy beauty devices—you name it, and it’s probably crossed my desk multiple times in my career at W+G.
The same goes for sunscreens; I have a drawer full of tested SPFs in my bathroom right now to get me through winter (because, yes, you should be protecting your skin even in the colder months!). Still, ask me what product I’m buying for Black Friday? The award-winning Tula Protect + Glow Daily Sunscreen Gel Broad Spectrum SPF 30 (now $27), which is 30 percent odd during the brand’s Black Friday sale. Yep. This SPF is so spectacular that, despite my overstock of sun protection, I’m buying a bottle of it while it’s on sale.
Why? For starters, this sunscreen is not your typical thick, chalky SPF that leaves your face feeling like it’s wearing a mask. The Protect + Glow formula is a lightweight gel that glides on like silk and absorbs almost instantly, leaving behind a dewy, radiant finish. No greasy residue, no weird white cast—just hydrated, happy skin. Bonus: It’s packed with probiotics (Tula’s whole thing) and pineapple extract, which give my skin a little extra love, brightening and nourishing it while providing top-notch sun protection. It’s basically skincare disguised as sunscreen, and I am here for it.
But what really seals the deal for me is how wearable it is. This sunscreen plays nicely with my makeup (no pilling or weird texture issues), and I’ve gotten so many compliments on my “glow” when I’m wearing it, even when it’s the only thing on my face. Plus, it’s reef-safe, cruelty-free, and smells subtly citrusy in the best way—like a mini vacation in a bottle. As someone who’s notoriously picky about SPFs, this one checks all the boxes and then some. It’s no wonder I keep coming back for more—and why I’m stocking up during this sale.
But wait, there’s more! All of Tula’s probiotic-packed skincare goodies are 30 percent off through Wednesday, Dec. 4, giving you more than time (and options) to shop. Scroll to snag more of my faves from the Tula Black Friday sale (but please get this sunscreen! Trust me!).

Packed with probiotics and superfoods, this ultra-creamy moisturizer hydrates and nourishes without ever feeling heavy, making it perfect for morning and bedtime routines. It leaves skin looking plumper and glowier after just a few uses and it’s not greasy—which is hard to come by with a cream this hydrating.

This gel mask is like a glass of water for thirsty skin. It’s infused with hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and prickly pear extract to drench your face in hydration and leave it looking refreshed in just 10 minutes. I actually love using it for slugging when my skin really needs some help—I’ll just apply a thick-ish layer of it before I go to bed and hit the hay. The next morning, my skin feels softer and happier, it’s that easy.

This cult-fave eye balm kinda put Tula on the map thanks to its ability to instantly wake up tired eyes. Swipe it on for a cooling, de-puffing effect and a natural rose-toned glow that makes you look way more awake than you feel. Bonus: It doubles as a subtle highlighter for cheekbones and brows.

Another best-seller, this potent yet gentle serum combines three types of vitamin C to brighten dark spots and even out your skin tone without irritation. There’s also a blend of prebiotics and probiotics, like lychee and mango extracts, to give you a lit-from-within look. It’s like sunshine in a bottle, but better, because it actually protects your skin from environmental damage, too.
Normally $34
Give your shower routine an upgrade with this exfoliating wash that leaves skin silky smooth. The combo of gentle scrubbers and probiotics helps buff away dead skin while keeping things soft and hydrated. Trust me, your legs will never feel as buttery as they do after using this.
