The 31 Best Beauty Deals I'm Buying at the 2025 Nordstrom Sale

This is hands-down the best face mist for calming irritation and nourishing parched skin. I traveled all the way to Budapest to experience this brand right from the source and I can attest, the founders know their stuff when it comes to skin health. I have a bottle of this on my desk at all times.

La Prairie is the epitome of luxury skincare, hands down. This cream is such luscious and velvety, and it leaves your skin feeling similarly expensive. If you want make it to one of the brand's luxe spas for a facial, a morning face massage with this moisturizer will be a very close second.

I kid you not, I've used this serum since I was 23—I'm that obsessed with it as my go-to nighttime repair formula. There are few other things that soft fine lines, nourish, and hydrate all while you sleep so that you wake up looking impossibly luminous. The jumbo bottle is the way to go, as well. I promise you'll struggle to not slather this all over your chest, neck, and back as well (which you absolutely should).

Sale season is the ideal time to finally snag that skincare tool you've been eyeing, and a LED mask is definitely a must. I use mine five days a week to battle hyperpigmentation, boost collagen production, and minimize breakouts. Be patient with yourself (results take time) and after a few months your skin will be looking absolutely breathtaking.

A curious phenomenon happens to me in the summer—my skin can still feel dry and peel (especially when I'm using a retinoid at night) but a too-thick moisturizer will clog my pores and leave me feeling even more greasy than I am in sweltering temps. It's why I was so grateful to finally try this cult-favorite gel moisturizer, which contains a botanical blend of ingredients to strengthen the skin barrier and lock in hydration without the weight of a cream.

Another mask that's worth your time and attention! Sheet masks are the quintessential self-care day staple, and truly, nine times out of ten, I reach for a 111SKIN mask from my collection to rehydrated my skin, soothe irritation, banish dullness—you take your pick from the pack.

This is the body lotion to which I hold all other formulas on the market. It's just... perfect. My skin is left soothed and hydrated, the cream sinks into the skin quickly, there's no overwhelming scent. I can find no flaws basically, which is why I stock up on at least two bottles, if not more, every time it goes on sale.

I'm utterly obsessed with this aerosol-free spray (those are the nasty chemicals that can make a mist harmful to your lungs). The formula is lightweight, rubs in easily—you have to rub it in to get adequate SPF protection—and it's water-resistant so it's perfect for a day at the pool or beach. I keep a bottle in my summer tote to reapply throughout the day.

My skin absolutely devours La Mer's signature concentrate serum. I slather this on when my skin is particularly stressed (read: I drank too many glasses of wine at dinner) and it gets to work plumping, smoothing, and enhancing my glow immediately. The baby bottle in this set is ideal to take my must-have formula with me when I travel.

The rumors are true—the rich cream really is that good. I hoard these bottles in my bathroom cabinet for fear that I'll ever run out. The texture is to-die-for and it seriously erases any blemish or irritated patch overnight. I use it as a night cream year-round and as both day and night in the fall and winter for a flawless complexion.

I never thought I would abandon my original Dyson dryer but then the Nural debuted and I can never go back. It has better heat protection to keep your scalp healthy, and the drying time with the diffuser, even for my fine wavy hair, is ridiculously fast.

I've tried a lot of flat irons over the years but I can safely say that this particular hair straightener is my favorite. The floating plates have a high gloss coating so your hair is left extra shiny with each pass, and the ergonomic design makes achieving waves, curls, or a pin straight style easier than ever.

Fact: you can never have too many silk scrunchies. This is the only thing I use to tie back my hair in a slick-back bun. The silk is extra gentle on your strands to help prevent breakage, and I also feel like it has better hold throughout the day, especially when your hair is extremely long like mine.

Girlies with the long hair, come to the front! I have rib-skimming waves and any time I used to curl my hair I'd run out of space on the barrel. That's a thing of the past with the XL curling iron, which utilizes smart technology to keep the heat even throughout your styling session.

There are few things more chic than pulling one of these stunning Prada lipstick bullets out from your bag. The trio contains two gorgeous matte colors as well as a tinted balm that reacts to your skin's pH for a customized shade.

The setting powder to end all setting powders, MC Beauty Writer Ariel Baker turned me onto this classic formula a few weeks ago. I'm all about a dewy skin look but in the summer, when my glow is more sweat gremlin than radiant goddess, I need a swipe of powder to finish off my makeup in the morning. This formula cannot will not fail.

Sigma is the only brush brand I'll use at this point. The bristles are so soft, with the perfect weight, and they hold powder beautifully. Ask any makeup artists and they'll tell you that this is the gold standard for brushes.

These woody and floral fragrances are ideal for your summer beauty routine, with crowd-pleasing notes that will have strangers clamoring to stand near you.

This scent single-handedly convinced me that I actually love floral perfumes. The woody, bergamot-forward blend is so sensual and fresh, and it never fails to procure some compliments from strangers on the train. The maximalist bottle is also such a star on my vanity.
