If you thought the fashion section of Nordstrom's anniversary sale was good, you might be a little overwhelmed by the beauty section—in the best way imaginable. I went through the preview of beauty offerings for this highly anticipated sale and was truly taken aback by the deals.
At the end of my search, I ended up with 30+ products in my cart and had to go through the excruciating, impossible, and unfair process of narrowing it down. My cart was filled with products that I know and love in jumbo sizes, fragrances that I think would perfectly suit me, beauty tools that could potentially transform my skin, and even things that could make my apartment feel even more like home. After that seemingly impossible challenge of considering what truly are the best deals, 17 items remain—which might still seem excessive to some, but for me feels completely reasonable.
Ahead, the 17 beauty items from Nordstrom's anniversary sale that survived in my shopping cart.
Therabody TheraFace Mask Glo-LED Skincare Mask
I've been using the TheraFace mask for a few months and can honestly say that it's made a significant improvement in my skin's brightness and clarity. Now, it's sitting in my cart as the perfect gift for a loved one. It uses both red light and blue light technology for treatments that pack a punch.
HigherDOSE Red Light Hat
Hair thinning, breakage, and lack of growth are a daily struggle for me. Now, I'm committing to using HigherDOSE's Red Light Hat for 10 minutes a day, and I encourage you all to do the same. I'll report back with results, but the positive reviews leave me with high hopes.
RevitaLash Advanced Eyelash Conditioner
Lately, I've been trying to put as much effort into caring for my eyelashes and eyebrows as I do for my hair. RevitaLash's conditioner has been on my radar for a while, but perhaps this is my sign to finally try it. This formula uses a Biopeptin complex, antioxidants, and amino acids to strengthen lashes.
Kiehl's Avocado Creamy Eye Duo
I've tried a ton of eye creams, and this is the one I keep returning. So, I see this as the perfect opportunity for a restock. If your biggest skin concern is dryness and your under-eye area suffers, especially in the winter, the avocado oil and sodium PCA in this formula will work in your favor.
PMD SilkSteam Renew Pro Facial Steamer
I'm the proud owner of one of these units, and now I'm thinking about how it makes for the perfect gift. My favorite self-care routine: a 15-minute steam session to soften my pores and allow for better absorption, followed by a treatment mask.
TOUCHLAND Rosewater Glow Mist Hand Sanitizer Duo
Hand sanitizer should be cute, too—and, arguably, nobody does it like Touchland. From the packaging to the scents that genuinely smell good, this brand makes staying clean and healthy cute and fun.
MOON Platinum LED Teeth Whitening Device
I've been seeking whiter teeth, but without having to go to a dentist and play boatloads of money. The reviews of MOON's teeth whitening device sort of speak for themself: 94% had noticeably whiter teeth after just one week. It's time to seriously consider this purchase.
Briogeo Don't Despair, Repair! Super Moisture Conditioner
I love Briogeo through and through, and the brand's Don't Despair, Repair! line has worked wonders on my hair. Anyone with curly or coily hair knows that we're more prone to breakage and require a bit more TLC to thrive—and this conditioner provides just that. It's looking like it's time for a restock.
DERMAFLASH LUXE+ Advanced Sonic Dermaplaning & Peach Fuzz Removal Set
I'm no stranger to using cheap dermaplaning razors from the beauty supply store to remove peach fuzz, but perhaps it's time to up my game. I'm also intrigued by this tool for its skincare and exfoliation benefits.
Nécessaire The Body Wash Duo Set
Nécessaire's body wash is a beauty editor's favorite for a reason. Rich in vitamins and formulated with niacinamide for the sake of skin health, this body wash isn't going to leave your skin dry or irritated.
NEST New York Grapefruit & Bamboo Reed Diffuser
I had a NEST diffuser in my old apartment, and it truly made a difference. Now, these feel like the perfect addition to my (relatively) new home. Plus, they also look chic and elegant.
Jo Malone London Jumbo Wood Sage & Sea Salt Body & Hand Wash
As a major fan of Jo Malone's perfumes, I'm naturally intrigued by their body and hand wash offerings–especially in this wood sage and sea salt scent.
BLISSY Pure Sleep Silk Pillowcase & Scrunchie Set
As a coily-haired girl, I know the importance (and luxury) of silk pillowcases and scrunchies—and I think everyone, regardless of hair texture, should experience it. I've been looking to replace some old pillowcases, so the timing couldn't be more perfect.
T3 Curling Straightener 2-in-1 Hair Styling Iron
Several years after my big chop, I'm actually considering putting heat on my hair for the first time in so long—crazy, I know. When I do, I'm turning to T3 because they make styling tools that genuinely work on all hair types.
Sunday Riley Jumbo Good Genes Face Treatment
One of my favorite skincare products ever! I have dry skin that doesn't always react well to exfoliants. My skin is obsessed with Sunday Riley's Good Genes serum though. It keeps my texture smooth and my skin bright without dryness, irritation, or redness. It's time to restock with this massive jumbo size!
Therabody TheraFace Depuffing Wand
Having had such great experiences with the TheraFace LED mask, I'm eager to try more Therabody tools. This tool features cold and heat facial treatments to depuff and glow.
Parfums de Marly Signature Fragrance Duo Set
Something about prestigious French perfume house Parfums de Marly just feels inherently royal. And, as someone naturally drawn to rose scents and intrigued by fruity scents, this fragrance that balances Damascena rose, lychee, rhubarb, and more seems right up my alley.
