From cult-favorite skin care by Sunday Riley to summer fragrances our team loves, there’s a lot to take in. To make things easier, we narrowed down the most tempting Nordstrom Anniversary Sale beauty deals you won’t want to pass up in every category.
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2023: Skin Care Deals
Snag your favorite serums, expand your moisturizer selection, or recover from a day in the sun with the retailer’s long list of discounted skin care products. That means splurge-worthy brands with reviews to back the price tag, like Lancôme, Elemis, and La Mer—at a fraction of the price. Not sure where to start? We love Sunday Riley’s Radiance Duo—it’s a gift set that appears once or twice a year and includes its a full-size bestselling gentle exfoliator plus a potent vitamin C serum for a more radiant skin combo. Vacation’s beloved SPF products are also up for grabs in a cash-saving bundle, as is Lancôme’s cult-favorite eye makeup remover. If you’re dealing with hormonal acne—or sunscreen-induced breakouts—consider trying this foaming face wash from Kate Somerville, it will provide a deeper cleanse but not leave skin feeling tight or raw.
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2023: Discovery Beauty Kits
The best way to get a new brand—or score multiples for less—is through (you guessed it) discovery beauty kits. Nordstrom tends to have really great exclusive ones for the holidays and its big sale events, and after years of covering the Anniversary Sale, we’re happy to confirm these are truly some of the best we’ve seen. The NuFace Mini+ comes in an adorable baby pink with all the accouterments—ideal for a complete skin care system—while La Mer has put together a four-piece travel bag of four of its all-time bestsellers. (You might already love the cream, but the foaming cleanser is just as good and leaves you smelling like a fresh baby who lives by the sea.) For more luxe beauty offers, check out Sisley-Paris’s eye cream set, which comes with the tiniest massage tool for depuffing and contouring the small, tight corners around your eyes, temple, and nasolabial folds. Augustinus Bader is offering a two-for-one kind of deal with a regular and travel-size version of its legendary The Rich Cream. Both Dr. Dennis Gross and Osea have bundles that promise to leave your skin looking more radiant than ever: Dr. Dennis Gross’s Glow Up Bundle includes 90 (!) peel treatments of regular and extra-strength pads that will probably last you a few months (plus a pre-cleansing gel), while Osea’s body care essentials will nourish dry skin; the body butter is one of our editors’ go-to’s—in her review, she called it the “ultimate winter moisturizer.”
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2023: Makeup Deals
Whether you like to go all-out glam or prefer a natural beat, do not sleep on Nordstrom’s staggering selection of makeup deals. Highlights in this section include a makeup set of Dior bestsellers (the clear lip balm is something you’ll always find in our bag); a Westman Atelier highlighter duo with the yummiest blendable gel-like formulas; Bobbi Brown’s beloved dual-ended creamy eye shadow stick that’ll let you create a legendary smoky eye look, and a complete kit of Anastasia Beverly Hills products for effortlessly smoothing or fluffing up brows.
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2023: Hair Care Deals
Give your hair some much-needed TLC with these editor-approved products from Olaplex, Bumble and Bumble, Briogeo, and Oribe. Slip’s silk scrunchies (and its pretty pillowcases, also on sale!) are a fail-safe buy; they don’t stretch out over time, are cute to wear, and surprisingly hard to lose! Plus, they make for great gifts when in a pinch. Briogeo’s clarifying shampoo and scalp massager will give your hair the deep cleanse it needs, while Oribe’s texturizing spray will give limp strands instant volume and body.
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2023: Hair Tool Deals
If you’re buying hair tools at full price, you’re slippin’. Just take a look at the array below. T3, GHD, and Dyson? It really doesn’t get any better. Shoppers sing praises for the Dyson Airwrap for its ability to curl, straighten, and add volume and shine for straight and curly girls—even ones with long hair. Our senior beauty editor, Ariana Yaptangco, wrote previously in a review that “it’s completely worth the price point”—and now you can score a Nordy exclusive red set for $60 less than normal. If the Dyson’s too intimidating for you, GHD’s 1-inch straightening iron is almost $100 off, and Drybar has a great blow dry brush that’ll let you create bouncy curls. Otherwise, there’s a simple (but no less effective) blow dryer from T3 on sale, though you can also splurge on the Dyson Supersonic—also available in limited-edition red—for $430 instead of $490.
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2023: Bath & Body Deals
Low on body wash? L’Occitane indulgent almond shower oil (plus refill!) is a must. If you decided to already stock up on your fave from Amazon Prime Day, consider snagging an XL bag of Kiehl’s body moisturizer (the jumbo size will probably last you until the next Nordstrom Anniversary Sale), pampering your body is always a good idea. If you’re skipping the beach this year but not your golden-hour glow, St. Tropez’ bronzing mousse delivers just that in under an hour sans streaks—no wonder our editor-in-chief re-ups on this popular self-tanner whenever it gets marked down. Elsewhere, Kopari’s gel moisturizer is the beach essential you didn’t know you needed in your raffia tote: It provides SPF 50 protection with lightweight hydration—instant love.
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2023: Perfume Deals
Give your fragrance stash a refresh with these unbeatable deals on iconic designer scents. Chloé’s signature scent is on sale for more than $50 off, alongside other legendary scents from Hermès, Valentino, Yves Saint Laurent, and more. If you appreciate variety, you’ll be happy to learn that a bunch of discovery kits from Le Labo, Byredo, Diptyque, Maison Francis Kurkdjian, and Jo Malone are also in the mix. Candles are also up for grabs; we’re especially fond of Diptyque’s 4-piece setsince it includes hero scents like Figuier, Baies, Roses, and Mimosa—though, you can never go wrong with a trio of tins from Voluspa.
