I Did the Math: Nordstrom's Beauty Deals Just Saved Me Over $1100
These luxury buys are selling out fast.
In case you missed it, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is happening right now, which means it's a great time to invest in any beauty products that have been on your wish list. One of the best parts about the event is that Nordstrom has such a wide offering of products ranging from everyday essentials to luxury buys that are available at a fraction of the cost. Personally, I already stocked up on my must-haves, and with all the money you can save on these deals, exploring luxury options was a natural next step for me.
Initially, I was just window shopping, but eventually I caved on some purchases. To be fair, my five-plus years of experience in the beauty industry have helped me develop a sharp eye for products that are actually worth the investment, so ignoring sales that were this big would have left me with some regrets. The result? Over $1100 saved.
If you're hoping to get in on the sale, the good news is it doesn't end until August 9. The bad news is that a lot of these luxury items are pretty much guaranteed to sell out fast. Curious to know which picks are worth adding to your cart ASAP? Keep scrolling for my recommendations.
Sometimes all we need are our favorite skincare essentials, which is why this set from La Mer is a must-have. For a value of $670, you'll be getting an eye cream, serum, and moisturizing cream. These rich formulas nourish the skin barrier while healing dryness and protecting against irritants. For over $200 off, it's a total steal.
This Augustinus Bader trio comes with a face cream, eye cream, and serum worth $530, but with the sale, you'll be getting almost $200 off. These products were designed to firm skin and reduce signs of aging while promoting plump, smooth, glowy skin. These products have been known for being worth the hype, so it's best to cash in on this deal before it sells out.
I'm all for multitasking products, which is why I'm a huge fan of this Dyson straightener. Unlike other ones on the market, this one dries and straightens your hair at the same time. Not only does this cut down the amount of time it takes to style your hair, but it's also designed to prevent heat damage. It has two styling modes, three airflow speeds and heat settings, and an auto pause feature that turns on after three seconds of inactivity.
I struggle with puffy under-eyes, so investing in something like these de-puffing eye masks was too tempting. These cooling patches also combat signs of early aging thanks to the NAC Y2 complex. You can expect plump, smooth under-eyes in just a few weeks.
I'll be the first to admit that I am not an enthusiast about investing in new perfumes. In fact, I barely wear fragrance at all. However, I would be lying if I said I haven't been trying to get my hands on some Le Labo fragrances. Rather than spending money on a single fragrance hoping I like the scent, I like the idea of buying multiple mini ones to figure out which one is actually my favorite.
If you've never seen this hat from HigherDose, let me explain what you're looking at. This hat uses red light therapy to increase blood circulation to the scalp to promote hair growth and scalp rejuvenation. That means less hair loss and optimal hair follicle function. Each treatment only requires 10 minutes of wear time, and results show up after 16 weeks of use with three to four sessions a week.
Over the years, I've used my fair share of makeup products to fill in my eyebrows. Although they're not thin, they're sparse and need constant shaping to maintain a fuller look. If you're in the same boat, chances are you can benefit from this kind of brow serum set from NeuLash. This formula contains peptides, proteins, vitamins, and essential oils for thicker-looking brows in just four to six weeks. .
I don't know about you, but I love a good face mask. Whether it's a sheet mask or something more high-tech like this TheraFace one, it's my favorite way to relax and recover. This one offers a 12-minute treatment that cycles through different kinds of light therapy to boost collagen, minimize wrinkles, and treat discoloration and acne. Meanwhile, the VibraWave technology provides a scalp massage. This mask is cordless, lightweight, and Incredibly breathable, making it worth the long-term investment.
I've always been a big fan of Sisley products, and this Black Rose Skin Infusion Cream and a Black Rose Eye Contour Fluid Works wonders for boosting radiance and smoothing skin. The cream can be applied to your face and neck twice a day, and the eye serum is gentle enough to be applied around the eye area and on the eyelids. It's worth $367, but with this sale, you'll be getting it for over $100 less.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but the quality of your makeup brushes absolutely plays a role in how your look comes out. With that in mind, you might want to consider investing in these Hourglass Essentials makeup brushes. In this set, you will receive a travel bag, concealer brush, complexion brush, and a two-sided edit brush. This kit holds everything you need for everyday makeup.
