Rodial's Black Friday sale is offering 10% off its travel-sized beauty minis for 24 hours, bringing Amanda Holden's favourite Banana Lowlighter down to £25.20 from £28.

The luxury cosmetics brand is running a series of daily-changing deals as part of its Black Friday promotion, with the current offer applying to mini formulas until 23.59pm on Sunday, November 15.

The Banana Lowlighter and its fans

The Banana Lowlighter is a colour corrector-concealer hybrid designed to brighten tired-looking eyes, neutralise dark circles and give skin a fresher appearance. Its yellow-toned pigments help colour-correct dullness, while caffeine and hyaluronic acid refresh and hydrate the under-eye area.

Amanda Holden shared her enthusiasm for the product earlier this year in an Instagram Reel, saying: "This Banana Lowlighter is one of Rodial's most iconic products. I cannot live without this every morning because, as you know, I do Heart Breakfast and I get up super early."

Demonstrating the product on one side of her face, she added: "Look at the difference - tired… awake… 90-year-old… 45-year-old. It lights from within, darling. There's a natural yellow undertone to it so it combats those horrible dark circles."

Shopper reviews

Shoppers have also praised the brightening formula. One John Lewis customer called it "amazing", writing: "I could not leave home without this, it hides a multitude of sins and makes you look wide-awake even on a few hours of sleep."

Another Space NK customer said: "The best Rodial product I have tried. My dark circles can be bad and I often find this product is enough and indeed can be used without concealer or foundation. I very highly recommend it."

Some users noted the product offers limited coverage. One shopper said it was a "good brightener" but that they "need a bit more coverage" for their under-eye area. Another reviewer highlighted its natural finish, saying: "It melts into the skin rather than sitting heavily on top, which helps create a much more natural-looking finish... instantly makes the complexion look fresher and more awake."

Other minis in the deal

Rodial's Dragon's Blood Sculpting Gel, typically £31, is available for £27.90. The lightweight gel-cream formula is designed to hydrate skin while improving the appearance of elasticity and definition.

The Glass Powder mini, usually £32, costs £28.80 during the deal. The finely milled loose powder is designed to set makeup while maintaining a luminous finish, blurring the appearance of pores and adding brightness with peach-toned pigments.

The Bee Venom Eye Cream Mini, now £31.50 instead of £35, is designed to soften the appearance of crow's feet while improving the look of firmness and elasticity. One customer commented: "Bought the mini version to test out before purchasing a bigger size. Have only been using for a few weeks but can already tell that my dark circles appear reduced, wrinkles and creases are slowly becoming less visible and make up sits really well on top of the product."

Another shopper said: "I thought, gosh Mini pot. But WOW just loved it a little goes a long way. The skin around my eyes is certainly less wrinkled and de-puffed, pat around absorbs easily, lovely under eyes, not at all dry or taught feeling, I don't need under eye concealer, so win win situation."

A more lukewarm review read: "Only been using for 4 days and haven't seen any difference in my eye bags yet but hoping I will soon." Another "couldn't believe the difference it made", adding: "Brought for my hubby who suffers with dark circles. This is so good. Sits perfectly under make up too. Will definitely be purchasing a full size."

The 10% discount on Rodial's minis runs until 23.59pm on Sunday, November 15.
