The best beauty deals to shop from the Nordstrom sale

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale officially opens to the public in stores and online on Wednesday, and you know what that means: It's time to do some serious stocking-up on all your favorite beauty products.

This year's beauty offerings represent a perfect mix of classic, beloved products from legacy brands and of exciting, buzzy finds from up-and-comers. Indie brands are better represented than ever before — particularly in the fragrance and candle categories — and there are notably a few more woman-, queer- and BIPOC-owned brands in the mix than in the past as well. (There are, however, very few Black-owned or -founded brands included in the sale lineup. Seeing as Nordstrom recently joined the 15 Percent Pledge, here's hoping that changes come next year's sale.) Nordstrom's beauty exclusives are well worth paying attention to: There are majorly discounted makeup sets, two-for-the-price-of-one brow serums, jumbo shampoos and more.
