It’s that time of year again—time for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. It’s happening now through August 4. And if you’re a certified sale-seeker like I am, I’m pretty sure I know exactly what you’re thinking and feeling right now. You’re thinking of all the beauty products you can buy for a major discount—products from elite and luxurious brands like Diptyque, Charlotte Tilbury, La Mer, and more. And you’re feeling the twitch of your fingers as they prepare to scroll and click “Add to cart.” That’s what I’m thinking and feeling at least.
I’ve been preparing for this event all summer. Now that it’s here, I’m not wasting any time. In fact, I already ordered a selection of on-sale items, and I’m telling all of my family and friends to do the same before they sell out. And because I refuse to gatekeep, I’m sharing them with you, too. Keep scrolling to see all 16!
Diptyque
Eau Rose Eau De Parfum & Hair Mist Set
When Diptyque goes on sale, I don’t mess around. The luxury French fragrance house is usually pretty expensive, so I’m snagging this set while it’s on sale. It contains the brand’s iconic Eau Rose perfume as well as its matching hair mist. So, yeah, I’ll be walking around in a cloud of rose-scented bliss until further notice.
Fresh
Soy Face Cleanser Home & Away Duo
This best-selling face cleanser is a must for anyone who wants a soft, clean complexion. The gentle formula removes dirt, oil, and makeup without stripping my skin of its moisture. I plan on keeping the full-size bottle in my bathroom and the travel-size bottle in my carry-on for clean skin no matter where I go.
Nécessaire
The Body Wash Duo
I use Nécessaire’s Body Wash every day, so why wouldn’t I stock up on two bottles for a major discount? Not only does the formula foam up into a silky lather, but it smells incredible like fresh eucalyptus and treats my skin to a multitude of vitamins and minerals.
T3
Airebrush Blow Dry Brush
Blow-dry brushes have been going viral on Instagram and TikTok, and it’s easy to see why. They deliver smooth, voluminous styles in no time flat. This one, from stylist-recommend brand T3, is $50 off during the sale, so act fast!
Olaplex
No. 4 Bond Maintenance Shampoo
Anyone who colors or chemically processes their hair will surely be delighted that the jumbo-size version of Olaplex’s bond-building shampoo is on sale. This giant is more than four times bigger than the traditional eight-ounce bottle, so it’ll keep your hair clean, smooth, and healthy for many washes to come.
Olaplex
No. 5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner
Don’t forget the matching conditioner.
Charlotte Tilbury
Pillow Talk Lip Kit
Charlotte Tilbury’s Pillow Talk Lipstick is iconic. I wear it all the time. So of course I’m stocking up on this cute little kit that contains the cream and liquid lipsticks as well as the matching lip liner. It always looks so flattering!
La Mer
Radiant Renewal Collection Set
If there’s one word that’s synonymous with La Mer, it’s expensive. Luckily, this Radiant Renewal Collection Set is discounted during Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale. It’s the perfect way to try out some best-selling La Mer products for yourself without paying an arm and a leg.
slip
Set of 2 Silk Queen Pillowcases
A silk pillowcase might seem kind of extra, but use one, and I promise you’ll be converted. It reduces friction on the skin and hair cuticle while you sleep, so you wake up with smoother skin and hair. Trust me, it really makes a difference.
Supergoop!
Play Everyday Lotion SPF50 Home & Away Sunscreen Set
I wear sunscreen every single day (and you should too). Since it’s a product we need, rather than just want, I’m snagging this SPF 50 duo on discount. It includes full-size and jumbo-size bottles of Supergoop’s Play Everyday Lotion. The formula is water- and sweat-resistant and non-greasy. What’s not to love?
Kiehl’s Since 1851
Ultra Facial Cream
One of my favorite moisturizers of all time, Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream is a staple in my beauty cabinet. It’s rich, creamy, and moisturizing, yet it never breaks me out. I always recommend it to my friends and family when they want a no-frills moisturizer that does what it says it will.
ARMANI beauty
Prisma Glass Lip Gloss Duo
A new Armani Beauty product that’s already on sale? Yeah, I bought it. The brand’s Prisma Glass Lip Gloss offers 24-hour hydration thanks to a squalane-rich formula. It has a glass-like shine and an oil-like texture. It’s never sticky or goopy.
NuFACE
Trinity+ Smart Advanced Facial Toning Starter Kit
I love My NuFace device, but it’s time for an upgrade. That’s why I’m snagging the brand’s Trinity+ Advanced Facial Toning Starter Kit while it’s on sale. It uses microcurrent technology to target the facial muscles, lifting, contouring, and sculpting the face and neck both instantly and over time. This high-tech iteration sends 25% more microcurrent where you need it with the “boost” button for best results.
Jo Malone London
Wood Sage & Sea Salt Cologne Home & Away Set
I’m sorry, but you’ll never regret buying a perfume that’s as iconic and universally loved as this one. Jo Malone’s Wood Sage & Sea Salt smells fresh, cozy, and aquatic, like you’re wearing a cable-knit sweater while watching the waves roll onto the English coast.

Platinum+ Styler 1-Inch Flat Iron
I can’t live without a flat iron, and I’m so excited to add this one to my collection. It uses something called predictive technology that recognizes and adapts the temperature of the plates 250 times per second. That means it automatically customizes the heat according to the thickness of your hair and the speed at which your styling. Pretty cool, right?
Kiehl’s Since 1851
Ultimate Strength Hand Salve
Fall is coming, people. And then winter. I’m preparing early, so I had to purchase this hand-perfecting salve while it’s on sale. The heavy-duty formula soothes, moisturizes, and protects extremely dry, cracked skin. Since I put hand cream on every night before bed, I’m planning on adding a thick layer of this over top of my lightweight formulas to seal them in and keep my hands and cuticles pristine.
