My Top 10 Beauty Picks from the 2020 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Out of all of the products in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, I consistently get most excited about the beauty buys! Because I use them ALL YEAR LONG + then some!

The Sale is currently open to all cardholders this Thursday, August 13! Very excited that I’ll be shopping the sale that day! If you aren’t a cardholder, you can still add these items to your wishlist and shop them when the sale opens to the public, on August 19!

We’re talking TOP, quality brands at a discounted price, which never, ever happens. I have or have tried a lot of the items on this list so I can personally attest these finds are worth the splurge! Here are my top 10 beauty items from the sale this year:

Olaplex Maintenance System – I’ve seen so many rave reviews and bloggers talking about Olaplex. I’ve wanted to try their products and this sale gives the perfect excuse!

Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery – Well, I can’t say enough good things about this serum. We buy this on repeat at full price. Because it is MIRACLE serum. I know that’s crazy to say… but it takes away all redness, irritation, and makes your skin GLOW. Nic and I have loved and used this for 10 years!

T3 Luxe Brush Set – Well, this is a bit extra… but gosh, what a pretty set!

T3 Professional Hair Dryer – T3 makes awesome, professional grade hair styling tools. This dryer is on my wishlist because the reviews are stellar, it supposedly dries your hair super fast, and makes it smooth.

T3 Professional Curling Iron – This navy one is the exact curling iron I own and bought from the Nordstrom Sale about 3 years ago. Doesn’t get much better, IMO. This iron gives soft waves, gets super hot, and is professional grade. An investment but one you’ll have for YEARS.

Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Set – This is a great deal bc this shampoo/conditioner is not cheap at regular price. I used Alterna for a few years – made my hair super soft and shiny.

Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Set – I bought this set during last year’s sale and have just NOW ran out of the shampoo. Seriously, it was like a week ago. Perfect timing! Living Proof is perfect for color treated hair, too. It’s my current shampoo/conditioner go-to!

Oribe Dry Shampoo & Texturizing Spray – Okay, I’ve bought this set for 2 years in a row and plan to buy this again this year! Absolutely hands down, best texturizing spray on the market. Makes your hair have so much volume, texture, and that professional salon finish. Their dry shampoo is amazing too and I was super bummed when I ran out. Oribe products smell like magic, too.

Jo Malone Mini Fragrances – I bought these from last year’s sale and they have lasted! Just one or two sprays is good so they last forever!

Too Faced Mascara & Lip Plumper – I have worn this mascara for years! It’s my absolute FAVE! Makes your lashes thicker and longer but doesn’t clump!

5.) There are SO many tax benefits - ALL earnings, including interest, grow tax-free, 529 plan withdrawals are tax-free when used for qualified higher education expenses, and you can deduct your contributions from their Ohio taxable income, up to $4K per year, per beneficiary.
