The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale: Beauty Edit

It's finally here, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. It's been around for about a week but only to card holders.  This sale is for a limited time only, and it is on new season merchandise. So many good buys, but today we are featuring their Beauty Exclusives. I wait for this sale all year long. Time to stock up and treat yourself.

P.S. Everything ships for free!

L'Occitane Almond Shower Duo

I love this product. It's moisturizing, a little goes a long way, and smells fabulous. Anniversary Sale Price $49

Sigma Beauty Brush Set

These are excellent. I own all three. Use them for applying liquid or powder makeup.

Vitamin Enriched Face Base Moisturizer & Primer Duo Set

I use this every single day. Love it, and I have been waiting for this sale. It keeps my make up on until I wash it off. No touch ups needed. These are FULL sizes. Normally $69 each but at Nordstrom you get two for $74. 

Westman Atelier "Lit Up" Highlight Duo

This is a great line of clean beauty. A limited-edition set of clean, multi-tasking highlight sticks that leave a facial-fresh, radiant glow. These are mini sizes but they last forever. $40

Olaplex Shampoo & Conditioner

If you love and use this iconic brand, you probably need the super sized bottles. $120 Values for $77

NuFace Facial Toner Starter Kit
I love mine. It is a microcurrent facial toning device that will lift brows, improve cheek contour, firm the face and neck, and improve fine lines. It's a $250 value on sale for $165

Nars Mini Multiple Duo

It's a multi purpose stick that can be used on face, eyes, and lips. I wear the shade South Beach (a peachy beige) as my blush. It's so creamy. I also like it as a lipstick, and as a crease color on my eyes. Excited to try the Orgasm shade. It's the prettiest pink. $30 for the two.

Mac Cosmetics Lip Kit Trio

This is such a good idea. Everything you need for the perfect pout. $73 Value for $45

Nest Fragrances Reed Diffuser Duo

These really work, and look lovely while they are scenting your home. And how good does Grapefruit & Bamboo sound? It's a $124 value. Now on sale for $83

Jo Malone Sale

A rare occurrence when you find this brand on sale. You can save on several of her fragrances, gift sets, and even candles! Time to stock up.

Kiehl's Retinol Skin-Renewing Daily Micro-Dose Facial Serum

Lots of Kiehl's products are in the sale. The link above takes you to the Kiehl's sale section. This Serum is on sale for $59, but will be $92 after the sale.

8-Inch Sensor Rechargeable Tabletop Mirror

I have heard good things about this model and the brand, Simplehuman. On sale for $140. After Sale it will be $200

St. Tropez Self Tanning Mousse

A great little set for home and away. In my opinion, it's the best self tanner on the market. Zero smell and easy application. If you already use it, here's more. It's a $128 value for $56.

Kate Somerville

Age Arrest Wrinkle Cream

Kate Somerville creates serious products that do what they say. By the reviews, this cream will not disappoint. Now $49 but will be $98 after the sale.

The 20 Must Haves At The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

The Annual Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is on and it's big! What makes this sale so special is most of the products included are new for Fall or exclusive to Nordstrom. Their reduced prices will go back up August 4th. A few things I had my eye on have already sold out, so I suggest that you shop fast. This edit of fashion, accessories, home decor and beauty, will help narrow down the wonderful options. Just click on any photo or title link to get shopping and saving on your favorite "Must Haves."

Tibi Mixed Check Blazer

Playing with patterns is a Tibi specialty. I think that this is great fun. A belted blazer for Fall 
is trending.

Lafayette 148 New York Turtleneck

If you are like me, you are always on the hunt for a good turtleneck. Here it is. Loving the delicate chain detail and the circle cut out in back. This is so good.

Lafayette 148 New York Lyndon 
Leather Blazer

Luxe leather that is buttery soft in the best granite grey. A great addition to your Fall wardrobe!

Chevron Luggage Set

Designed by Nordstrom for stylish travel. Very good looking and well priced at $100 off. 

J.Crew Stretch Wrap Blouse
Who doesn't need a fresh new white shirt? This one makes a stylish statement.

Hunter Original Tour Gloss Packable 
Rain Boot
Packable? Now that is something new and necessary. Included in the special sale are several styles and colors of this classic boot for rain or snow. Now marked down by $50.

All Saints Trench
Cool girl style, and I just love it. Also available in sage green (but it looks taupe). It's the slouchy and fussy sophistication that makes this style a winner.

Burberry Sunglasses

In the vintage check that dates back to the '60s, these glasses are modern and chic in style.

Longchamp Le Pillage Leather Tote
The iconic bag style from Longchamp gets an upgrade in red leather. It's also available in pink. Great for a full day or a weekend getaway.
 Now marked down by $175.

Missoni Skinny Scarf
Whenever you can get your hands on a Missoni sale item, grab it. This skinny scarf will add panache and Italian style to every 
outfit and coat.

AllSaints Mila Bootie
Reflecting the label's industrial DNA, these feature lofty style. The gleaming studs and back zipper details make this a standout shoe.

Leopard Print Water Resistant Coated Trench Coat
This coat by Something Navy makes me want to go jump in puddles. It's fun and fierce with a glossy finish. Now less than $100.

Antica Farmacista Home Ambiance Perfume
What it is: A reed diffuser presented in an apothecary-inspired bottle filled with fragrance that permeates the air through the bottle's open neck. With many delectable fragrances like Lavender & Lime, Vanilla, Bourbon, and Mandarin, Prosecco & more, these are a treat for your home and your guests. Save $20 - $30 on each set.

Plaid Cashmere Wrap
A big, bold, and sweeping 100% cashmere wrap. Oh the things you can do with this!  Divine for less than $100.

Living Proof Full Hair Heroes
These are the hair products I use every day. I can honestly say that they plump up my fine limp hair. I also use the Hair Thickening Cream. Love it all. This set is a $30 savings.

Jaipur Glacier Rug
Update your home from the ground up with rugs on sale at Nordstrom. This beautiful blend of greys just might be my favorite. 

Kiehl's Bath & Body
One of my fave bath and body brands. Not only are their products good, they have not been tested on animals (can you imagine?) but they also do not contain harmful parabans. The Creme de Corps is one of the very best body moisturizers I have ever used. Very rich and elegant. Click the image to see what products are reduced.

Saturdays At Shop This: It's About Summer Beauty

{ Via: Vogue }

Since today is National Lipst*ck Day, I thought we would talk beauty this Saturday. And no, that isn't a typo. There's something strange happening in the cyber world of my blog. I can't type the word Lipst*ck without an issue. TMI but I did want to be au courant with this silly little day.  The photo above is borrowed from a fabulous write up at Vogue on Ayurvedic practitioner and herbalist Kari Jansen's, treatment space in Los Angeles.  Scroll down for more beauty news.

The coolest lip color ever: Laneige Two Tone Lipst*ck at Sephora. My favorite duo is the No.7 Cashmere Nude - Neutral Brown Pink. 
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 
Many of us are trying to be more mindful with our cosmetic, skincare, and suncare choices. My motto is when you know better, you do better. The EWG Skin Deep Cosmetics Database is very helpful and enlightening. 
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 
The chicest Shower Cap on the market: The  Shhhowercap.  It's so lovely, it can double as your poolside turban, for those days when you don't want to get your hair wet.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 
There's big savings to be had at Fragrancenet this weekend. Save an Extra 30% on already discounted fragrances like Hermes, Gucci, and Creed. They also carry high end skincare such as Erno Laszlo, Lancome, and Clarins. 
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 
Guest-Room Beauty Essentials at Goop: Stop the need for medicine chest snooping. If you are hosting this Summer, stock the guest quarters with these "clean beauty" products.  Any one of them would be fun for your visitor to try. I plan on trying the Ursa Major Essential Face Wipes. 
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 
Don't miss the National Lipst*ck Day Bundle just $10 with any purchase at Bare Minerals. It's the cutest Tote with 6 Lip Colors.

Neiman Marcus Beauty School: Exclusive Q&A's, how-to's, did-you-know's + more from 10 of your favorite names like Tata Harper's small batch skincare. It's an easy quick read.

Lip Service: Finding the perfect lip color is possible online. Chat with a specialist at Bobbi Brown and save 30% on select shades. You can even upload your photo for real time help. Click Here and scroll down.

My favorite Summer Beauty Buy has been Coconut Oil.  I use it as a moisturizer, for makeup removal, for dental oil pulling, and as my natural sunscreen.  You might like this article: Coconut Oil: 101 Uses, Benefits, & Why You Should Use it | Wellness Mama
