Nordstrom Has Some Super-Effective (and On-Sale) Skincare Products—These 13 Will Sell Out First

Greetings from your friendly neighborhood beauty editor. I'm here to remind you that Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale is officially on, and with it come some stellar discounts on designer makeup products, effective hair tools, and more. While every beauty category is worth shopping, I happen to be Who What Wear's resident skincare obsessive, so I'm allocating most of my time, energy, and spending money to the (you guessed it) skincare section.
After scrolling through the entire skincare category, I've whittled my shopping list down to 13 can't-miss products and Nordstrom-exclusive sets. Keep scrolling to see them all, from a powerful LED light mask to an iconic moisturizer and more.
If you don't have an LED mask (or a reverse-ager, as I like to call them), now's the time to get one. This is the exact one I use, and it's almost 30% off. It combines red and near-infrared light to target lines, wrinkles, dullness, discoloration, and uneven texture. It only takes 10 minutes, the medical-grade silicone feels comfortable against the skin, and the adjustable band is one-size-fits-all. This one is a no-brainer, and I'm certain it will sell out soon.
I know so many fellow beauty editors who love U Beauty's The Super Hydrator. It's a next-level moisturizer that hydrates the skin up to 48 hours thanks to five unique sizes of hyaluronic acid and a proprietary capsule technology. If your skin is dry from swimming, sweating, and high summer heat, or you know it will be come fall, now's the time to get the fix for a whopping $70 off the original price.
This serum-like sunscreen has a light, fluid texture that sinks into the skin, protecting it with SPF 50+. I love it so much that I recommended it to my sister. Now, it's her favorite face sunscreen ever. We're both stocking up on it during Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale.
This is another Kiehl's product that I use as part of my daily skincare routine. The Ultra Facial Cream has the perfect balance of light and thick texture, never pills, and deeply moisturizes my skin. I've also found that it pairs beautifully with makeup. That's why I'm buying this Home & Away Duo, which includes a full-size and a travel-size moisturizer (because I don't want to interrupt my skincare routine for travel).
La Mer is iconic, and it has an iconic price tag to match. If you've been wanting to try the brand's effective (and expensive!) products without draining your bank account, I highly recommend snagging this Mini Miracles Moisturizing Set. It includes mini sizes of The Treatment Lotion, the Renewal Oil, the Crème de la Mer Moisturizing Cream, and the Rejuvenating Night Cream. Use it to test-drive the brand's best-selling products or keep it on standby for travel.
You know I love a Nordstrom exclusive! This two-piece set of Osea's Anti-Aging Body Balm is so worth the money. The formula is silky and hydrating and provides all the anti-aging benefits of a body serum. There's alaria seaweed to improve skin elasticity and firmness. There's passionfruit seed oil to increase skin hydration. There's even coconut oil to deliver fatty acids and seal in moisture. Together, these ingredients make the skin look plump, smooth, and healthy.
It's only July, which means we have a lot of summer left. That's why I'm stocking up on sunscreen—Supergoop's Spray to Play SPF Trio, to be exact. The non-aerosol, water-resistant formula is perfect for packing in a beach bag. The mist is lightweight and refreshing, and can even be applied to wet skin!
Donna Karan's Cashmere Mist is an iconic warm-floral fragrance that centers lily of the valley, Moroccan jasmine, and sandalwood. It's the OG "quiet luxury" scent, and if you want it on it, I highly suggest snagging this jumbo-size body lotion. It will hydrate your skin with lightweight moisture, while wrapping it in the alluring scent. Use it alone or pair it with the Cashmere Mist Eau de Parfum ($32) for a long-lasting scent-layering trick.
I love Vacation's sunscreen products, and this two-piece set is no exception. It includes two products. First, there's the Vacation Shimmer Oil with SPF 30. It's a luxe body oil that contains a pearlescent glaze and gold mica flecks for stunning, shimmery limbs. Then, there's the Chardonnay Lip Oil SPF 30. Formulated with grape-seed oil and SPF 30 (duh), it delivers moisture, shine, and a delicious caramel-vanilla flavor profile.
Sunday Riley's Good Genes Lactic Acid Treatment is a do-it-all serum that promises to improve the complexion on so many levels. Let's count the ways, shall we? First, lactic acid hydrates and exfoliates the skin for a smooth, luminous texture. Second, licorice extract brightens the skin and boosts overall radiance. Third, lemongrass refreshes and tones it. There's also arnica, prickly pear extract, and aloe to soothe the skin. It's basically better skin in a bottle.
Real ones know that if you use Sunday Riley's Good Genes Lactic Acid Treatment in tandem with the C.E.O. Brightening Serum, you'll get the most stunning, luminous skin. The latter uses a highly stable, oil-soluble form of vitamin C to erase dark spots and discoloration, while skin-soothing ingredients to mitigate irritation.
I love eye patches because A) I almost never get enough sleep, and B) I'll never deny myself a little self-care moment. These ones, from Patchology, brighten and de-puff my under-eye area with caffeine, hydrolyzed collagen, and a special moisture-delivery system. Buy these, and you'll be able to fake eight hours of sleep like me.
