25 Beauty Products To Pick Up At The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

It's not Christmas yet, but it is the annual Nordstrom anniversary sale, so it's basically the same thing since customers can get some of their favorite brands at an extreme discount—clothes, accessories, shoes, you name it. 

We'll be hovering around the beauty department, though, because Nordstrom goes the extra mile to work with brands on exclusive sets, limited-edition products, and really great deals you can't find anywhere else. Also, there are hundreds of options to choose from which can be overwhelming in a really, really good way. 

To help you sort through the offerings, we were granted early access to every lipstick, rose spray, and beauty device being discounted. Click through to see some of our favorites and get your wish lists all figured out ahead of time. 

P.S. The pre-sale is happening now while the public one starts tomorrow and lasts through August 6. And if you plan on checking out the selection in store, starting tomorrow, the retailer will be holding daily beauty events for customers, which include on-the-go spa treatments and smoky eye tutorials.

This double-sided palette includes 12 eyeshadows (with matte, shimmer, and metallic shades), two blushes, and two bronzers. So, pretty much everything you need for day or night in one place.
