I Spent Hours Finding the Best Deals at the Nordstrom End-of-Summer Beauty Sale So You Don’t Have To

I’ve been a massive fan of BK Beauty products for years, but this brush in particular has to be the diamond of the entire collection. It’s a little slanted, which allows it to fit perfectly under the eye, and the synthetic fibers used for the bristles avoid soaking up too much product, which keeps the coverage your concealer provides intact.

​Review: “This is such a great brush. It's the perfect size and shape to apply and blend without over-applying or the brush soaking up too much product. Plus the flat side of the brush is perfect for setting powder. Worth it at full price, but on sale it's a no-brainer.” — Nordstrom

This blush palette has pretty much every color you could think of, including a sultry brown for fall. Whether you’re a professional makeup artist or just an everyday consumer, these shades are literally all you need to get that youthful, flushed look for a fraction of the price.

​Review: “I absolutely love the palette, and it's so versatile and pigmented and creamy. A must-have.” — Ofra Cosmetics

Love smelling like an inviting little snack? Ktoret Candy perfume from Michael Malul will bring you endless compliments. Jasmine, citrus, rose, vanilla, and more combine to create an intoxicating scent bubble that smells like the perfect confectionery treat that everyone wants a piece of.

​Review: “The fragrance was everything I knew it would be. Smells exactly like candy in the best way. Can't wait to get my hands on more from this line.” — Fragrancenet.com

I’m a massive fan of the Kate McLeod body moisturizers, and this one in particular has my heart. Cacao and cinnamon are the stars of the show, and not only does it smell delightfully festive for the winter season, but these stones are also heart-shaped and packed with ingredients like cocoa, almond, and avocado butters. In other words, it’s the perfect little product to grab and rub onto your body for a sensual “me” moment.

​Review: “As my third bar from this business, it's become my favorite. It subtly smells like chocolate. And the cinnamon takes center but it absolutely complements the bar. Definitely recommend for a girl or just for yourself. Especially for softer skin.” — Nordstrom

I hope by now you’ve upgraded from your loofah or traditional washcloth to something more exfoliating. If not, the Luv Scrub is the absolute best place to start. Not only does this African net sponge exfoliate as it cleanses, but it’s also long enough to easily reach your back without any awkward maneuvering in the shower. If you experience body acne, grab this body exfoliator while it’s on sale.

​Review: “I’ve been using this scrub (fishnet in West Africa) for over 25 years! I’m beyond pleased to see this commercialized and sold in amazing colors! I won’t have to wait for my trips to Benin to get my replacements anymore! Thank you for bringing a bit of West Africa to the US market. Your skin will get so many compliments after continued use!” — Nordstrom

Speaking of exfoliation, one of my favorite pre-shower rituals is dry brushing, especially when my skin feels particularly itchy. The slightly longer handle on this one from Pursonic makes getting to those hard-to-reach areas like the shoulder blades exponentially easier, and the nylon bristles keep the process gentle.

​Review: “This is excellent for dry brushing. It holds up through multiple dishwasher cycles and is a good value and not expensive compared to some other dry brushes.” — Nordstrom

I can’t recommend LED red light therapy enough, and this deal is an incredible place to start. This neck-specific device offers seven color modes to refine texture, boost elasticity, address uneven tone, and minimize redness, plus a warm massage feature for the perfect end-of-the-day treat to relax.

​Review: “Ok, nothing earth shattering, but I've been using this daily since purchasing it during the NAS, and I must say I do notice a difference in my skin. My skin is smoother and more even in tone. The device is easy to charge and easy to use. Based on my experience to date, I would recommend it.” — Nordstrom

If you’re a skincare lover, you likely know that barrier care is the name of the game to keep your face intact while you try out all of the latest that the beauty industry has to offer. Products like this Barrier Essence from Haru Haru Wonder are fantastic to use regularly because not only are you regularly flooding your skin with ceramides, panthenol, and more, but if you ever upset your skin barrier, having a gentle, hydrating product like this essence will have you thanking your past self for thinking ahead.

​Review: “A little goes a long way. It makes a super hydrating prep. I have normal skin, and I’m using less serum and can sometimes forego moisturizer. With or without foundation, my skin looks and feels fresh, plump, and glowy. Happy camper!” — Nordstrom
