The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has officially arrived, and oh my god, is it incredible. For context, I usually reserve all my beauty restocking for this very moment when my favorite luxury brands are slashed up to 50% off. (Seriously—Augustinus Bader for less than $100?! Feels like stealing.) And I'm truly spoiled for choice this year, as the spendy products and tools I use on the regular (and genuinely fear running out of) are included. Nordstrom, I swear you can read my mind…
Do I need another luxury hand soap right this second? Perhaps not, but when I can save big bucks on a staple I know I'll end up buying as soon as I finish (no lie, it makes my NYC one-bedroom feel like a luxury hotel), I'll go ahead and bite. In fact, after tallying up my cart, it turns out I can save $1540 on all of my tried-and-true favorites. (Yes, really. I did the math!) Discover them below, and shop these gems while you still can; the sale concludes on August 3, but I don't expect them to stay available until then.

Sea Salt Hand Wash ($55)

Our entire beauty team is deeply obsessed with this Chloé perfume, so much so that it won our Best Timelessly Classic Fragrance award this year. I'm still currently going through my first bottle, but I truly never want to be without this stunning staple, so I'm definitely going to score another while I can. A bonus? This set also comes with a travel-size and body lotion version.
YSL's Loveshine Lip Oil Stick is one of my favorite beauty-bag staples. It provides a perfect kiss of color with just the right amount of juicy shine. I won't rest until I have one in every color!
I didn't know how badly I needed high-end hand soap until I tried this gorgeous Jo Malone number that's scented with the brand's iconic Wood Sage Sea Salt fragrance. Seriously—it elevates my bathroom into a luxury spa.
Can you tell I'm restocking my fragrance shelf? Byredo's Blanche is an exquisite scent. This trio sets lets you layer with a full-size perfume, travel-size perfume, and hand cream version.
I take a baby Delina with me on every vacation. Not only does it make me smell like a French baroness, but the gorgeous, tasseled bottle is a work of art. My friends borrow a spritz or two whenever they see it in my cosmetic bag, so I can't wait to add a mini Valaya and Delina Exclusif to the rotation.
Yes, La Mer products are really worth it. These formulas in particular smooth fine lines and plumps the delicate skin like no other, and I'd snag four each if I had the budget. Just one bottle of The Lifting Firming Serum is tagged at $435, so I highly recommend getting yourself this trio for $5 more.
Tom Ford perfumes are pricey—like, over $300 per bottle. So when I see two of the most irresistible potions tagged at a mere $40, you better believe I'm scooping them up ASAP.
I've been using U Beauty's The Super Hydrator every single night for the past month, and I'm genuinely dreading the day I run out of my bottle. The formula truly makes my skin look like cashmere. This jumbo-size version feels like fate!
Designer perfume often has a designer price tag, so I'm taking advantage of this Prada Paradoxe Eau de Parfum Gift Set while I still can. It's so chic.
111Skin has some of the best sheet and eye masks on the market, but they usually come with a hefty price to match. This set features the brand's best-selling Black Diamond Eye Mask and Black Diamond Eye Cream. I'm going to cop it while I can, and I suggest you do the same!
Whenever someone asks me if Augustinus Bader products really work, I say, "Unfortunately, yes." They do cost a pretty penny (that's the unfortunate part), but the impressive skin-tightening results are 1000% worth it. Whenever they do go on sale, especially a sale this major, it'd be a sin not to take advantage of the magic.
Believe the hype—this tool lifts and tones my cheekbones like no other.
I'm on a mission to perfect flat-iron waves this summer (a much beachier result than full barrel curls), and this one-inch straightener will do just the trick. The custom blend ceramic plates simultaneously smooth down the hair cuticles, resulting in less frizz and glossy shine.
I've tried more hyaluronic acid serums than I can count, and I always come back to Dr. Barbara Sturm's magic potion. Truly nothing plumps and hydrates my skin like this winner, so I will be taking advantage of the full-size option here, along with those nourishing glow drops to really take the dewiness up a notch.
Call me dramatic, but I let out an audible "Noooo!" when I realized I ran out of this skin-smoothing serum. A ton of products claim to be "Botox in a bottle," but this formula is the closest it comes, IMO. It's straight-up liquid gold. I couldn't hit "add to cart" fast enough.
