NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE BEST OF BEAUTY

Okay, so!! šŸ™‚ The Nordstrom Anniversary sale does goes public TOMORROW. If you are still trying to decide what to buy, Iā€™d recommend purchasing what you for sure want today so that you get it – I have heard of SO many people ordering just a few minutes later and the item was sold out. In fact, the the sale went live to cardholders, I did a post on *Products That Will Sell Out* – just so you guys can get a first chance at them and so many of them were gone in the first few HOURS of the sale being live, it is crazy!

Any who, today I am just wrapping up what I find to be the BEST OF BEAUTY on the site. I have been covering the beauty selection of the sale for several years and I have SOOO many products that I purchased during the first NSALE I ever shopped – and I still use! Iā€™ve collected some photos and shot more photos so break down some of the best deals! So as you scroll down you will see items that I really love & use + info on them!

#NSALE BEAUTY MUST HAVES:

#1. IMPRESSIONS VANITY MIRROR

This is a must if you are someone who wears make-up! I have a few different brand of mirrors – I love my Simple Human & my Riki! But this one is great because not only is it more affordable, it is small enough to travel AND it comes w/a travel mirror – which is how I get ready on airplanes/in the airport! It lights up and has a mirror on both sides. I will attach a photo below! So you get the small travel one that goes into your purse and you get the one that sits on a vanity + a magnifying mirror.

On sale for $51 regularly $78

#2 FACIAL HAIR REMOVER / MICRONEEDLING TOOL / ETC.

Next up are not new to my blog by any means but they are worth the mention since they are on sale!

-You all already know I ADORE my GloPro Microneedling Tool. Iā€™ve been using it for a year now and I have covered it in a lot of my weekly beauty round ups. This tool is a game changer – I love it because I have acne scars that are stubborn and large pores and see a difference when I use it!

-I also love the NuFace, in fact I have one for face and one for body! These are similar to the GloPro but very different – I like them because they are for aging skin so they help to tighten and contour the skin. I would recommend reading up on this if you havenā€™t heard of them!

-Lastly, I love the Illuminage for ā€œlaserā€ hair removal AT HOME. I love anything that allows me to stay home and not have to go out as much, lol. Iā€™ve had this for a little over a year and really love that I can use it at home!

#3. BRUSHES & BRUSH CLEANERS

Now is THE best time to get new makeup brushes! I have a few holy grail brushes and most of them are part of the sale – as are the cleaners!

SIGMA BRUSHES [the F80 is my foundation go-to!]

Beauty Blenders [couldnā€™t imagine trying to do makeup w/o one of these – these are magical and are a MUST so that you arenā€™t cakey! I love the new storage thing that comes w/these!]

CLEANSING PADĀ

#4. KIEHLS LOTIONĀ 

#5. BLOWDRIERS / STRAIGHTENERS / CURLING IRONS

Nordstrom has always been my go-to place for hot hair products. I use a lot of T3Micro – as you all have seen for many years now! I keep a travel sized drier in my guest bedrooms along w/a travel size straightener from the brand. I keep a travel sized drier in my luggage as well – that is how dedicated I am!

#6. MY FAVORITE SHAMPOO / CONDITIONER

If you have followed me for long you already know – this is my jam! Iā€™ve been a loyal user of Alterna for probably 3 years straight?! I ordered this set bc I go through this like crazy!


MISCELLEANEOUS

LeLabo Travel Set [oh em gee! Bought this in the store – one of the first things I grabbed!]

Of course the SILK pillowcases I talked ab in yesterdays post [HERE].

ABH LIP KIT – Kind of random and I donā€™t like it UNLESS I use a dark liner but it is a super pretty nude combo and looks amazing if you like a nude-pink look!

EVIAN – Also random but I keep these everywhere and swear by these when traveling!!

Anthony Wipes – These are the best! Everyone should be using these at night – I love them for when I am traveling and am worn out and canā€™t take time to do ALL of the night time skin care steps.

The HA I use every night and morning is also on sale! I swear by this – it was recommended to my by girlfriend Kaeā€™La! She has amazing skin and said ALWAYS use this and it will plump up and hydrate your skin!
