On skin care, you simply cannot go wrong with the NuFace microcurrent device to lift and tone, or the Lightstim wand for an at-home, wrinkle-smoothing LED light therapy treatment. Dr. Dennis Gross’s LED mask is an editor favorite and available in a handy kit alongside the brand’s vitamin C serum, retinol-enriched eye cream, and daily face peel pads. Rather leave the hi-tech solutions to the pros? Add a magnifying mirror or fresh makeup brushes to cart.

In summertime especially, it’s time to give your body the same care you give your face. That means cleansing with a conditioning wash like Nécessaire’s that removes dirt and debris without stripping skin of its natural oils. The right hand cream is equally as important, like Jo Malone London’s formula infused with the label’s iconic Wood Sage and Sea Salt aroma. Good body care also requires a moisturizing lotion or cream; Osea’s trio includes two undaria seaweed-infused elixirs to maintain skin’s hydration levels while firming and softening. Don’t forget the body sunscreen! Whether its lotions by Supergoop! or Vacation’s SPF-infused oil, there are plenty of formulas for adequate UV protection. Eager to self-tan? St. Tropez’s mousse delivers a streak-free, sun-kissed bronze in just a few hours.

Interested in a revamped makeup regimen? Laura Mercier’s Caviar Sticks provide an easy wash of color to the eye, while MAC’s set features a date night-worthy shadow palette and complementing mascara to accentuate any gaze. Brows are arguably the most important step; give yours a proper shaping with cult-favorite products by Anastasia Beverly Hills. If a statement lip is on the occasion, look no further than Charlotte Tilbury’s trio in the iconic Pillow Talk shade or Bobbi Brown’s lip balm for a wash of sheer everyday tint. For a fuller-looking pout sans injections, consider Too Faced’s elixir, which instantly plumps and smooths lips upon first application. For a sunkissed glow, on the other hand, take your pick of multitasking illuminators by Giorgio Armani and Westman Atelier.
Best Hair-Care Deals
Luckily, there are a plethora of finds suitable for any hair types marked down during the Nordstrom sale. Living Proof’s set features a shampoo, conditioner, and dry shampoo to clean and revive your main, while Moroccanoil’s kit seeks to quench thirsty strands through a hydrating blend of argan oil, red algae, vitamin A and E. It may also be worth adding a hair mask to your regimen, in which case, Briogeo’s trio is just the ticket for stronger, healthier strands. When you think of hair care, you might not think of growth serums for the brows and lashes. In any case, options by Revitalash and NeuLash are known to thicken sparse brows and lengthen lashes in a matter of weeks (with consistent use, of course). Grooming products are featured in the sale, too, like Murdock London’s kit, which features a shampoo, moisturizer, and balm to keep your beard in tip-top shape.
Best Fragrance Deals
It should come as no surprise that many of the best colognes for men and perfumes for women are featured in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. Cologne shopping is a breeze with deals on bestselling aromas by YSL, Tom Ford, Creed, and Giorgio Armani. We’d recommend Gucci Bloom to someone partial to a floral fragrance—thanks to a blend of tuberose and jasmine—or, Parfum de Marly’s beloved Delina which leads with Turkish rose, lily of the valley, and peony. For someone not sure which scent profile they prefer, a fragrance discovery set is just the ticket. Maison Francis Kurkdjian’s option includes eight vials of their bestselling scents from Baccarat Rouge 540 to Amyris Femme.
