Attention, shoppers: Your favorite sale of the year has finally arrived. While the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has technically been available to shop since July 14 (if you have cardmember status, that is), the price-slashed assortment of fashion, beauty, and home wares is officially available to all. From now until August 9, you can take up to 70% off those pricey wish-list items you’ve been eyeing, and if you’re anything like me, that folder is usually dotted with brands like Dyson, Chantecaille, and Prada Beauty. Lucky for both of us, these brands and more are seeing steep deals at this very moment.
As a shopping editor–turned–beauty editor, I believe the best time to pounce on makeup, skincare, fragrance, and hair-tool splurges is when they’re discounted, and no sale delivers quite like the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. In honor of the mega-retailer’s 125th anniversary, Nordstrom has expanded its sale with more brands than ever, and I’ve done the digging to see which beauty buys are worth your hard-earned cash.
From Dyson hair tools to iconic Le Labo fragrances, this beauty haul is unbeatable. Keep scrolling for the best beauty sales Nordstrom has to offer on the first official day of the Anniversary Sale.
The 23 Best Beauty Deals From the 2026 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, at a Glance

T3

Bio Ionic
1.25-Inch Long Barrel Styling Iron
It’s important to invest in high-quality hair tools—lest you damage your strands at the expense of a bargain buy—but this curling iron from Bio Ionic proves that good tools don’t need to break the bank. This long-barreled iron is made with special cuticle-sealing technology that keeps your hair looking and feeling sleek, and it’s only $109 during the Anniversary Sale.
T3
Curling Straightener 2-in-1 Hair Styling Iron
In 2026, you should have a hair tool that does it all. Meet the T3 Curling Straightener, a two-in-one tool that curls and straightens and has auto–world voltage for all your overseas travel. It’s my best travel buddy to this day.

No one wants to spend 20 minutes blow-drying their hair, and this powerful tool from Laifen ensures that you’ll never experience a lengthy drying session again. The speedy hair dryer works on all hair types, shortening dry times down to as little as 30 seconds for those with short hair and around four minutes for those with long hair.

Best Fragrance Deals From the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
Le Labo
Santal 33 Eau de Parfum
Le Labo’s Santal 33 is a sensual, woody fragrance that has captured the attention of beauty lovers since its debut in 2011. A blend of cedarwood, Australian sandalwood, iris, smoky wood, and leather shrouds the wearer in an alluringly androgynous cloud, making it a sure crowd-pleaser. Le Labo’s scents are famous for being on the expensive side, so I’d recommend adding this one to your cart while it’s under $200.
YSL Beauty
Libre Eau de Parfum Gift Set
YSL Beauty’s Libre perfume was practically viral from the moment it arrived on the scene in 2019. This musky take on lavender and citrus tantalizes the senses, and with this discounted set, you get a full-sized bottle to keep at home and a travel-sized one to throw in your purse for quick touch-ups. Oh, and a chic designer makeup pouch seals the deal.
If you favor unique scents over viral ones, consider this edgy wood fragrance from Heretic. Known for its alternative scents, Heretic twists the warm, earthy scent of hinoki wood with lemon, thyme, and nutmeg. The result is an androgynous elixir that keeps people guessing.
Prada Beauty
Paradoxe Intense Eau de Parfum 2-Piece Set
If you could only walk away with one scent from Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale, let it be this one. Lauded by Who What Wear editors as one of the most complimented perfumes of all time, this deep floral is simply irresistible. Accented with jasmine, warmed by amber, and grounded with moss accord, there’s something in this scent for everyone. That explains why people have attracted dates from across a crowded room with just a single spritz.
TOM FORD
Fabulous & Lost Cherry Eau de Parfum Discovery Fragrance Gift Set
Tom Ford makes some of the most decadent designer fragrances to date, but the sprawling selection and mysterious names leave much up to the imagination. If you’re unsure which of the brand’s iconic scents is for you, might I suggest nabbing this discovery set for just $45 with two of the brand’s most famous scents? Make it a couple combo, or keep them both to yourself—they’re just that good.
Le Labo
Another 13 Eau de Parfum
Here’s another full-sized bottle you can’t risk leaving behind. While Santal 33 is a storied crowd-pleaser, this musky scent flies a bit below the radar. Barely-there florals dash this animalistic, ambery scent, drenching the skin in a mossy wood that feels lighter and, dare I say, chicer than its smoky sibling.
BYREDO
Mojave Ghost Fragrance Set
Mojave Ghost hive, rise. This fragrance set is a perfume lover’s dream, consisting of a full-sized perfume, a travel-sized bottle, and a hand cream for 33% off. Does it get any better than this?
Parfums de Marly
Signature Trio Fragrance Set
Parfums de Marly is famously regal, outrageously elegant, and very pricey. It makes sense that a trio of its most renowned scents would total nearly $800, but during the Anniversary Sale, you can nab Delina Eau de Parfum, Valaya Eau de Parfum, and Valaya Exclusif for just $515. One purchase is all you’d need for a lifetime.
Best Skincare Deals From the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare
DRx Spectralite Faceware Pro
If you’ve been on the hunt for the perfect LED mask, allow this rare deal to be your sign to make the purchase. WWW beauty editors named Dr. Dennis Gross’s DRx Spectralite Faceware Pro the best option on the market for those with acne due to its bacteria-fighting blue light therapy, but its supplemental collagen-boosting red light doesn’t hurt either. Snag it while it’s 25% off.
Chantecaille
Bio Lifting Eye Cream
Not every luxury item is worth the splurge, but eye cream from Chantecaille very much is. The powerful formula is packed with eye bag–blasting peptides and botanical actives that smooth the appearance of fine lines, offering a refreshed and youthful appearance with every swipe. Though the price is still on the higher side, it’s much more palatable at 20% off.
Nécessaire
The Body Lotion
Bodycare is a big topic of conversation in the beauty sphere these days. After all, our skin is our biggest organ and stretches far below the neck, so it should be treated with the same care as our faces. The Nécessaire Body Lotion is a great product to implement no matter where you are on your bodycare journey thanks to its gentle, fragrance-free formula packed with moisturizing lipids, plant butters, and smoothing niacinamide. Plus, you can put an extra $10 back in your wallet if you buy it now.
L’Occitane
Showered in Almond Set
It’s the little things that make life luxurious, and this elevated, silky-smooth bodywash is the smallest change you can make to turn your everyday shower into a spa experience. Editors adore this luxe shower oil for its decadent scent and deeply hydrating results, leaving your skin feeling nourished and moisturized for hours on end.
OSEA
Hyaluronic Body Serum Duo
Neither my mom nor I can get enough of Osea’s Hyaluronic Body Serum, so I’m picking up this duo while it’s 39% off. Our skin drinks up the lightweight concoction—a blend of weighted hyaluronic acid, microalgae, peptides, niacinamide, and aloe—and our skin texture is smooth and hydrated for up to 24 hours.
Supergoop!
Unseen Sunscreen Broad-Spectrum SPF 50 Jumbo Duo
While I always suggest stocking up on good sunscreen whenever there’s a sale, I’d especially recommend grabbing this value pack of editor-loved Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen while it’s 30% off. This non-acnegenic (it won’t clog pores or cause acne), gel-like, blurring SPF leaves zero white cast and sets the skin up perfectly for a face of foundation or an active no-makeup day. No matter how you wear it, your skin will remain truly protected—with a filter-like blur to boot.
Donna Karan New York
Cashmere Mist Body Lotion
If major savings are what you’re after, look no further than Donna Karan’s Cashmere Mist Body Lotion. This 32-ounce bottle is valued at $287 (but actually retails for $122 post-sale) and is going for as little as $75 right now. The luxurious formula is scented with the brand’s stunning Cashmere Mist fragrance—a warm, ambery floral cut with sandalwood—and leaves skin drenched in hyaluronic acid–boosted hydration.
Estée Lauder
Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Multi-Recovery Complex Serum
If premier skincare is what you’re after but the price is not quite in your budget, this is the time to shop. Estée Lauder’s famous Advanced Night Repair Serum is seven serums wrapped up into one potent blend—smoothing fine lines, strengthening the barrier, hydrating and plumping the skin, and so much more. Right now, it’s 33% cheaper.
SALT & STONE
Bergamot & Hinoki Body Wash Duo
WWW beauty editors can’t get over Salt & Stone’s fabulous array of products, but the bodywash has to be my favorite of the bunch. The Bergamot & Hinoki scent starts my day with a fresh, invigorating push, and the formula’s vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and more smooth my skin’s tone and texture for optimal body-lotion absorption. I’m grabbing this value pack while it’s 32% off.
