Nordstrom’s Fall Beauty Sale Is Full of Editor-Approved Finds
I found the best 20 products to shop before they sell out.
Fall is almost officially here. While I’m well-stocked on my fall fashion essentials, my beauty routine is in dire need of an update. My skin and hair change as the seasons do, after all, so swapping in a luxurious, fall-ready routine is a must. That’s why I’m turning to Nordstrom’s fall beauty sale to hunt down everything I need for the new season, and for less than usual.
From now until September 21, select beauty finds in Nordstrom's massive beauty section are 25 percent off. I scrolled through seven pages of on-sale products to find the best options in the hair, skin, and makeup categories.
My picks include a mascara duo from Westman Atelier—I fell in love with the brand after testing its brand-new concealer—and a cream blush from Tata Harper that I’m going to be wearing this fall to tap into the red blush trend. In the skincare department, I found a hydrating face primer from Bobbi Brown and a body scrub that will make quick work of my dead, dry winter skin.
I also found so many haircare finds from Aveda on sale, like a super-moisturizing deep conditioner that will save my strands from the incoming winter weather. Plus, there are a few new shampoo options I’ve been thinking about trying.
Keep scrolling to shop all of my hand-selected, editor-approved finds. Here's to better, brighter, and healthier-looking skin and hair this fall (and winter).
Nordstrom Fall Sale Makeup Finds
Nordstrom's beauty selection includes tons of luxury fall finds, including a creamy pencil eyeliner from Westman Atelier and a setting powder from Laura Mercier that locks my makeup in place without drying out my skin.
It's no secret that I love these eyeshadow sticks from Laura Mercier. They're basically a smoky eye in a tube.
Perfectly smudgy and workable, this liner-mascara duo from Westman Atelier is the secret weapon your beauty bag needs. Keep them both on-hand to instantly elevate your daily routine.
I love a peachy pink blush to make my summer tan last a little longer. This formula is weightless and melts into the skin for a natural-looking flash.
This micro-fine powder is perfect for brightening and setting your makeup in place. It's top-rated because it disappears on the skin.
Bobbi Brown's makeup selection is great if you want simple products that really work. Case in point: This lip oil from the line leaves your lips feeling hydrated and smooth.
This is the red blush I was talking about earlier. The shade "Naughty" is a deep cranberry hue that will work on a variety of skintones to give you that fresh-from-the-beach slightly-burned look.
A few colors of this MAC Cosmetics Lip Liner Pencil are on sale right now, including best-selling options like "Spice" (a deep pink shade) and "Chestnut" (a true brown hue).
Team your lip liner with this matte lipstick from the line. It's not drying like other formulas (I'm a fan of the shade "Over The Taupe") but it lasts like one.
I grew up wishing I could buy every single MAC Powder Blush. I can now live out my dreams and pick up a few shades now that they're on sale. "Melba" and "Gingerly" are on my list.
Nordstrom Fall Beauty Sale Skincare Finds
I obviously take care of my skin year-round, but I amp up my routine in the fall. Luckily, so many of my favorites are on sale right now, including the face wash I use in my double-cleansing routine, a body oil I use to give my skin a healthy glow, and more.
I personally use and swear by this eye cream duo from Kiehl's. It's deeply hydrating (a must as we head into colder weather).
If you have a NuFACE microcurrent device, you need this gel—but finding them on sale is rare. This duo is on sale now for $41 and the price of a single bottle of the conductive gel is $50.
This scrub from Kate Somerville will leave your skin glowing in just a few uses. Simply apply it to your body, leave it on for three minutes, and then wash it off for a refreshed look.
I tested this primer from Bobbi Brown at my bachelorette party and my makeup lasted all night long. I'm buying it now in this cute set that also includes the brand's eye cream.
Haven't you heard? Bar soaps are back! This one from Aveda has a cruelty-free formula that contains peppermint oil and rosemary extract for a spa-like shower experience.
I love oil cleansers because they gently remove makeup without stripping the sensitive skin on my face. This is one of my all-time favorites.
Nordstrom Fall Beauty Sale Haircare Finds
My hair is pretty low-maintenance, but that doesn't mean I don't care about it. That's why I'm using Nordstrom's sale section to boost the look and feel of my hair this season.
The best time to buy a flat iron is when it's on sale. This tool from GHD is a celebrity-stylist favorite and has glowing reviews on Nordstrom's site.
Product build-up can leave your hair feeling grimy and weighed-down. This clarifying shampoo from Aveda gets rid of that residue to leave your hair looking and feeling its best.
I have the kind of hair that gets so dry in the winter. That's why I'm stocking up on this hydrating shampoo to keep it feeling healthy.
"My hair is on the oily side and this gets it clean and allows me to go two-to-three days without washing," says one five-star reviewer of this shampoo. "It smells so clean and refreshing too." I'm sold.
If you hair is looking a little worse-for-wear, add this deep conditioner into your routine. "I absolutely love this mask," wrote one reviewer. "In just five minutes I feel it did wonders to my hair. It left my hair feeling soft, silky and strong."
If it's been a while since your last salon visit and you want to keep your dye job looking its best, this is the product from you. Reviewers say it smells great and leave their hair feeling amazing after one use.
