I’ve shopped a lifetime’s worth of items in the past few weeks, but I still have more to shop, because Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale is still on. A ton of beauty-editor-approved products are available at deep discounts through August 4th, and honestly, I wouldn’t be doing my job if I didn’t share at least a few of the items in my cart. After all, beauty editors love to stock up, too, so there’s a good chance that some of the items listed below will appeal to you, too.
As I mentioned above, I’ll be rushing to snap up some (or all) of these items, as the anniversary sale only lasts until August 4. For all the fragrance, makeup, skincare, and haircare products I’ll be purchasing (before I lock away my credit card for the rest of the summer), keep scrolling.
vacation
Summer Scent Duo
I’ve mentioned before how much I love the scent of Vacation’s Summer Oil and its accompanying Eau de Toilette, and I’m stoked to find that the two are currently on sale at Nordstrom. They both smell absolutely delicious, with Vacation’s signature pineapple, coconut, and solar musk notes. If you like beachy, tropical scents, you’ll love both.
Diptyque
Eau Rose Eau de Parfum & Hair Mist
Seriously, every Diptyque perfume is a work of art. Eau Rose is a classic with its rich notes of rose damascena, chamomile and lychee, but their hair mist is also a must-have because it leaves my hair smelling freshly washed all the time. Trust me, I’m not usually one to use hair mists, but this one is special. Every time I spray it on my hair, I feel like I’ve been to the spa.
This blush duo features two of Nars’ best-selling shades of all time: Orgasm and Deep Throat. I’ll let you in on a little secret: I’m not usually a big fan of powder blushes because they look chalky on the skin. But this formula is one of the rare exceptions. It’s super easy to build up and super pigmented without veering into clown territory.
Yves Saint Laurent
Lash Crush Extreme Volume Mascara Duo
I’ve often hyped up how great this mascara is, but when I get the chance to pick it up cheap, I never pass it up. As a beauty editor, I try a ton of mascaras, and — hate to be cruel — most of them end up in the trash. But this mascara can’t compete. It adds tons of length, volume, and curl, and it doesn’t cake or flake, especially when combined with a lash primer.
Westman Atelier
Petit Lit Up Highlight Stick Duo
I don’t think there is a single Westman Atelier product I’ve tried so far that I don’t like. This brand makes amazing products that are essential for your everyday makeup routine. This highlighter duo gives off a luminous glow without being too flashy. I use it as both a highlighter and an eye shadow during the day, especially in the summer.
Bobbi Brown
Vitamin Enriched Face Base Moisturizer & Primer Duo Set
Inspired by makeup artists on TikTok, I tried this face cream and it did not disappoint. It’s a great, versatile product that creates a smooth, creamy base for your makeup. It acts as a moisturizer and primer in one, locking in moisture and creating the perfect base for foundation.
Burberry
Eau de Parfum Gift Set for Her
Add this to your cart right now, everyone! Featuring rich notes of blackcurrant, blueberry, raspberry, and jasmine, this iconic Burberry scent is perfect for anyone who likes fruity, gourmand scents. I haven’t tried the body lotion that comes with it yet, but I’ll definitely give it a try next time.
New Faces
Mini+ Smart On-The-Go Facial Toning Starter Kit
Tighten, firm and lift your skin with the NuFace Mini Toning Device. This compact device is perfect for travel, so grab it while it’s on sale.
Kopari
Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Set
I’m a big fan of Kopari and this moisturising set features some of the brand’s best products (IMHO). The body oil is infused with shimmering gold flakes to give you a serious summer glow, whilst the body butter provides rich, luxurious hydration for all day long.
Jo Malone London
English Pear & Freesia Body & Hand Wash
It’s always nice to have your bathroom smell like a luxury spa, and this hand and body wash from Jo Malone has one of my favorite scents from the brand, English Pear & Freesia. It’s so light, fresh, and spa-like.
God
Platinum+ Styler 1 inch flat iron
GHD Tools are a favorite of editors and celebrity stylists, and I’ve had my eye on this curling iron for quite some time, but now is the time to make the decision to purchase one.
Olaplex
No.5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner
Seriously, don’t miss this opportunity to stock up on the extra large size of Olaplex’s Bond Restoring Conditioner, I’m a huge fan and I love using it as a deep conditioner from time to time to give my curly hair extra moisture.
