Makeup, skincare, tools, and all.
It’s a good day to be a Bloomingdale's fan.

For the fashion girls, if you need a fall wardrobe reset, now’s the time to jump on it, but on my beauty-obsessed side of the internet, I always go to the cosmetics section of any sale first. Let me tell you right now: the pickings are good.
Some of my favorite products, like Dyson hair tools, Chanel makeup, and even a few skincare goodies, are all on offer, but if you’re not as steeped in the beauty industry as I am, you may not know exactly where to focus your attention. That’s where this curated edit will come in handy.
I’ve gone through every single beauty product that is included in this sale and have found the seven best items worth the splurge. Whether you’re going for a little treat-yourself moment, are getting ready for the holidays, or are simply feeling the shoppies, these are the beauty products on sale at Bloomingdale's that even the most storied beauty professionals would salivate over.

Best Face Serum
If you need a fall skin reset in as few steps as possible, pick up this serum set from Cellcosmet. Hydrating ingredients like glycerin and propanediol help keep your skin hydrated, while the brand’s proprietary CytoPep™ cellular extracts and postbiotics complex fortify the formula’s moisturizing ingredients while also providing protection against pollutants and other environmental stressors like blue light from our phones and computers. It’s simple, effective, and gentle enough that it shouldn’t overwhelm sensitive skin, but as always, make sure to patch test before committing to the full regimen.
Review: “After using this for a few weeks, I noticed a real improvement in my fine lines. The wrinkles around my eyes and smile lines look softer and less noticeable. My skin feels firmer and more elastic overall. It gives a subtle lifting and smoothing effect that I really love. Definitely one of the best anti-aging products I’ve tried.” — cellcosmet.com
Best Face Oil
I’ve waxed poetic about this oil before, so I won’t go on too long of a tangent here. TL;DR? It’s the perfect facial oil for anyone with dehydrated, acne-prone skin because plum oil is non-comedogenic. Tack on its moisturizing properties thanks to ingredients like vitamin E, polyphenols, and omega fatty acids, and it’s a no-brainer addition to your shopping cart.
Review: “While this is now my holy grail face oil, it’s been our beauty director, Hannah Baxter’s, favorite since 2018 (yes, she showed me proof). It’s made from one ingredient, plum seed oil, and is fantastic at giving my acneic skin the most angelic glow. It also has a light fruity scent that I simply can’t get enough of.” — Ariel Wilson, Beauty Writer
Best Mouthwash
I love products that make my life (and travels) easy. Enter: Supersmile’s powdered mouthwash packets. Not only do these little packets allow you to pack one less liquid product in your luggage, but all you have to do is add water to the sachet, and boom! You have mouthwash. It’s such a genius invention that seriously solves a pain point for the beauty lovers who don’t skimp on oral hygiene when they travel.
Review: “I bought this to use when I'm on the go. It's so convenient to just put water into the packet, "swish", and have clean teeth and fresh breath. I love it!” — Bloomingdales.com
Best Body Oil
Costa Brazil is one of the chicest bodycare lines on the market, and it does not get the hype that it deserves. As the colder months start to loom, make sure your body stays moisturized by adding an oil like this one to your routine. A combination of seed oils plus Murumuru and Cupuacu butters makes sure that your skin is moisturized to the high heavens while simultaneously firming as well. The bottle is also incredibly chic and would look beautiful on any vanity.
Review: “One of the best oils I have ever used. I love this so much that I have a little stock of it because I hate to run out. I adore the scent and the oil keeps my skin feeling supple and soft. I like to use it just out of the shower when my skin is ever so slightly damp, to keep some moisture in." — Bloomingdale's
Best Hair Clips
I don’t know if this is a Short Hair™ problem, but my hair is in that stage where it’s no longer quite a true bob but isn’t super long either. This has sent me on the hunt for fun hair accessories for when I just don’t feel like styling my hair, and these are simply adorable. Use the tomato as a pop of color for your hairstyle, or opt for the more functional route and have it actually clip your hair out of your face. Whatever you choose, the result will be adorable, guaranteed.
Review: These little hair accessories make the most adorable addition to any hairstyle. However you decide to style your hair, these adorable little clips will be sure to be a conversation starter and the cause of multiple compliments daily. You’re welcome.” — Ariel Baker, Beauty Writer
Best Makeup Product
If you’ve read any of my previous work, then you know that this is one of my favorite makeup products of all time, not just from Chanel. Everything from the easy-to-use twist-up packaging to the stunning sheen it leaves behind once applied screams luxury, and I am here for it. No notes.
Review: “This is a game-changer in my cosmetics arsenal. I can wear it any day, any time, and it gives me back that youthful glow I had for years. I use it sparingly, just on my upper cheeks and sometimes my lips, but it's lightweight and classy. Especially when I'm not wearing foundation, it leaves my skin with a soft, dewy look.” — Bloomingdales.com
Best Beauty Tool
Winter is on the way, which means that it’s humidifier season. To keep your skin from feeling like sandpaper, especially if you experience skin conditions like eczema, use a humidifier like this one from Canopy. It not only has mold-inhibiting technology, but it also has dishwasher-safe parts, making cleaning the device a breeze. Plus, you can add essential oils to the tank for an at-home aromatherapy moment.
Review: “This is a total game-changer for healthier air and glowing skin! It uses advanced anti-mold technology and a paper filter for the cleanest, purest moisture. It’s dishwasher-safe and stylish enough to blend seamlessly into any space. Plus, the built-in aroma diffuser makes your home smell amazing. If you want better sleep, hydrated skin, and fresher air—this is the one!” — Bloomingdales.com
