From the likely sale dates to their typical discounts, here’s a look at everything you should know about Philosophy’s upcoming Black Friday 2025 sale.
Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates and Early Access
Based on previous years, the sale is expected to begin at philosophy.com on Monday, November 24, 2025 for Rewards members (that’s three days before Thanksgiving). People who are signed up for Philosophy’s newsletter often get early access. Last year, newsletter subscribers received a special promo code, EARLYBIRD40, that unlocked early deals.
The general sale is likely to open to everyone on Wednesday, November 26, 2025. The event will likely end on Sunday, November 30, 2025 at 11:59PM PT.
Discounts to Expect
Philosophy tends to stick with a strong sitewide discount during Black Friday, and for 2025, 40% off is expected, similar to last year. This discount typically applies to most full-priced products but comes with standard exclusions. These usually include past purchases, new products, gift sets, and bundles. Also, the sale cannot be combined with other offers, and free items may be substituted with a product of equal or greater value.
Philosophy Rewards members often enjoy extra perks, including free shipping and a free gift on orders over $50 using a promo code (last year’s code was VIPSHIP).
Examples from Last Year
Looking back at 2024, the 40% off sitewide promotion made it possible to purchase multiple products at a significant discount. Some examples from last year include:
-
Purity Made Simple One-Step Facial Cleanser (8 oz) – discounted from $24 to around $14.40. This cleanser is a staple for many and is frequently mentioned as a must-buy during the sale.
-
Renewed Hope in a Jar Moisturizer (2 oz) – went from $30 to about $18. This moisturizer is lightweight yet effective, which made it a top pick for those wanting to try something new or restock.
-
Ultimate Miracle Worker Gift Set – included multiple mini products at a fraction of the original price.
-
Body and Shower Gel Sets – several sets were available with 40% off, often including exclusive scents that were not sold separately.
