I’ve done enough shopping the past few weeks to last me a lifetime, but here I am, still willing to do more of it because Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale is still going on. Through August 4, you can receive some serious discounts on so many beauty editor–approved products. I honestly wouldn’t be doing my job if I didn’t share at least a handful of the items in my cart. After all, beauty editors like to stock up too, and there’s a good chance some of the items I’ve added below might appeal to you.
Like I said above, the Anniversary Sale only lasts through August 4, so I’ll be making haste on buying a few (or all) of these things. For every fragrance, makeup, skincare, and haircare product I’ll be buying (before I lock up my credit card for the rest of summer), keep scrolling!
Vacation
Summer Scent Duo
I’ve talked about how much I love Vacation’s Summer Oil and accompanying eau de toilette fragrance before, but I’m moving with a sense of urgency now that I see the two of them are on sale at Nordstrom rn. Both smell delicious, oozing with Vacation’s signature scent of pineapple, coconut, and solar musk. If you like a beachy, tropical scent, trust me, you’re going to love both!
Diptyque
Eau Rose Eau De Parfum & Hair Mist
Seriously—every Diptyque perfume is a work of art. Eau Rose is a classic for its rich notes of rose damascena, chamomile, and lychee, but the hair mist is also a huge necessity because it makes your hair smell freshly washed all the time. Trust me, I’m not usually one for hair mists, but this one is so special. I feel like I’ve been to the spa every time I spritz it in my hair.
This blush duo features two of Nars’s best-selling shades of all time—Orgasm and Deep Throat. I’ll let you in on a little secret. Normally, I’m not really into powder blushes, because they tend to look a bit chalky on my skin, but this formula is one of the only exceptions. It’s super buildable and has great color payoff without rearing into clown territory.
Yves Saint Laurent
Lash Clash Extreme Volume Mascara Duo
I shout about how good this mascara is often, and I’ll never miss an opportunity to stock up on it for a cheaper price. As a beauty editor, I try a lot of mascaras, and I hate to be so ruthless, but most of them end up in the trash because they just don’t compare to this one. It offers so much length, volume, and curl and never budges or flakes for me, especially when paired with a lash primer.
Westman Atelier
Petite Lit Up Highlight Stick Duo
I don’t think there’s a single Westman Atelier product I’ve tried that I don’t like. The brand makes such fantastic everyday makeup essentials. This highlighter duo gives you a radiant glow that’s never too over the top. I honestly use it as both a highlight and eye shadow during the day—especially during the summer when it can really pop.
Bobbi Brown
Vitamin Enriched Face Base Moisturizer & Primer Duo Set
I was influenced by a makeup artist on TikTok to try this face cream, and it did not disappoint. It’s a great multi-use product that creates such a smooth creamy base for makeup. It acts as a moisturizer and primer in one to really lock in hydration and create the perfect base for foundation.
Burberry
Her Eau De Parfum Gift Set
Add this one to cart at a run, folks. With rich notes of blackcurrant, blueberry, raspberry, and jasmine accord, this iconic Burberry scent is perfect for anyone who loves a fruity gourmand fragrance. I’ve never tried the accompanying body lotion, but I definitely will be now.
NuFACE
Mini+ Smart On-the-Go Facial Toning Starter Kit
Lift, tone, and firm your skin with NuFace’s mini toning device. This one is perfect to travel with because it comes in such a compact size. You’ll definitely want to snag this quickly while it’s on sale.
Kopari
Hyaluronic Moisture Set
I’m a huge Kopari fan, and this hydration set offers some of the brand’s best products (IMO). The body oil features illuminating gold leaf to give you a serious summer glow while the body butter provides such rich, luxurious moisture all day long.
Jo Malone London
English Pear & Freesia Body & Hand Wash
I always enjoy it when my bathroom smells like an expensive spa. This hand-and-body wash from Jo Malone contains one of my favorite scents from the brand, English Pear & Freesia. It’s so light, fresh, and spa-like.
Ghd
Platinum+ Styler 1-Inch Flat Iron
GHD tools are beloved by editor and celebrity stylists alike. I’ve had my eye on this flat iron for quite some time and now’s the time to pull the trigger.
Olaplex
No. 5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner
Seriously, don’t miss out on this opportunity to stock up on a jumbo size of Olaplex’s cult-loved bond-rebuilding conditioner. I love using this as a deep conditioner sometimes to give my curls a huge boost of hydration.
