I Just Saved $215 on 19 of My Most-Wanted Beauty Picks at Nordstrom—You Can Too

There's nothing more disappointing than getting your hopes up for a buzzed-about beauty sale only to realize—to put it nicely—it's rather anticlimactic. Either the savings aren't great, the brands/products aren't the best, there are tons of exclusions, or, in the most tragic of cases, it's a sad combination of all three. Luckily for you (and me), however, this isn't one such case. Through October 2, you can get some of the most covetable beauty products on Nordstrom's shelves—from brands like Dior, Giorgio Armani, Nars, NuFace, Benefit, and more—for up to 15% off.

As I scrolled through the very impressive selection, I spotted so many formulas that I'm either A) already hopelessly devoted to or B) itching to buy as they're at the top of my fall beauty shopping list.

So, as one does, I put together a 19-item long "want list" and tallied how much money I'd theoretically save if I were to buy them all in one go—$215! I'm not made out of money, so I'll have to curb my appetite slightly, but I still thought I'd share with you every single gem that made the cut. Below, 19 on-sale Nordstrom beauty buys I highly recommend. Keep scrolling! 

Fall is officially on the brain, and this rich, V-famous shade of rum-raisin polish from Dior is absolute perfection. I just snapped one up, and there are only a few left!

Speaking of Dior, you've likely seen this hyper-flattering pink blush all over TikTok and IG. And yes, it's 100% worth the hype and (temporarily discounted) splurge. 

So many makeup artists have told me this highly-pigmented cream eyeshadow is the ultimate pick for a rich-looking eye. The shade Groundwork, in particular, is a red carpet staple. 

I have this easy-to-use matte lip pencil from Nars in every color but Do Me Baby—described by the brand as a "chestnut rose"—is stunning for fall and winter and the one pencil in my entire collection that I've worn down to the nub. 

For days when I'm not feeling a matte finish (or if I just want to zhuzh a bare lip a little) I'll layer on this sheer, slightly shimmery balm from Nars. My faves are Deep Throat and Orgasm.

Can you tell I am in a moment of coveting all things rose-hued? Not only is this a fantastic lip liner in and of itself, but I wish every lip liner in the industry would handily come with a brush (for goof-proof application) on the opposite end. It's brilliant, and if you haven't yet used a lip brush when drawing and blending your liner, your life is about to change forever.

A more beloved foundation among makeup artists does not exist. The formula provides oil-free coverage with the most beautiful and satiny of finishes.

Trust me—it's an investment, but this is the only brush you'll ever need, and I firmly believe you get what you pay for when it comes to brushes. 

There's a reason this is one of the most famous bronzers of all-time—it has a flattering matte finish and provides just the amount of warmth and natural-looking glow to the skin. 

I love this balm—it gives a one-two-punch of color, hydration, and pillowy plumpness. The shade Dolly Fever is perfection.

This is the best lip gloss. It's expensive, but it's the best. And, for what it's worth, never have I ever received so many compliments about what I’m wearing on my lips than when I'm wearing the shade Aura, in particular. 

I'm not sure if another beauty brand exists with such a starring lineup of truly effective mascaras. Benefit's lineup is impressive, and each of its cheeky wands caters to specific lash goals. I have a few favorites I regularly recommend, but this one is the absolute best when it comes to curl and lift. Interestingly, it's inspired by hair rollers, and it boasts a patent-pending Hook 'n' Roll brush featuring teeny, custom-designed hooks to catch, lift, and curl every last lash. The hold will last for at least 12 hours, and your lashes will also benefit from the lush effects of provitamin B5.

If you’re someone who’s been around the beauty block, you’ve likely heard emphatic rumblings about NuFace’s collection of skin-tightening devices, but the OG, shown here, is definitely the investment to make if you’re looking to reap maximum results. Just like spendy in-office treatments, this little gal delivers professional-level microcurrent technology to your face from the comfort of your couch, bed, bathroom, or wherever you so please. 

If you're in the market for an A+++ vitamin C serum, this is the "holy-grail" formula Hailey Bieber swears by. 

This brow-growth serum is so effective that I quite literally had to stop using it only a month or so in due to how fast and furious my previously stagnant brow hairs were growing. I'd need at least four more hands to count on my fingers how many brow serums I've tried during my time as a beauty editor, yet this is the one I recommend without a moment's hesitation whenever people ask me for a brow-beefing rec. Trust—you won't be disappointed!

I have fair skin and like to self-tan all year round, especially in the winter to keep my glow up. This is the most luxurious and subtle (yet noticeable) facial formulation on the market—trust. 

One of my favorite eye creams of all time, this is probably the one I recommend to friends most often since it's a bit more affordable and so instantaneously effective. One swipe across your under-eyes and the mica-, caffeine-, and antioxidant-rich potion practically blurs away the look of lingering darkness. I honestly think this is Sunday Riley's best product. But that's just me. 

Bitter Peach is my favorite fragrance of all time. I have never smelled something so juicy, complex, and all-around addicting. It lingers and melts into your skin for a really warm and beautiful finish, but the mix of peach, davana (an aromatic herb native to India), and patchouli is so unique—I've never smelt anything like it. I can't get over it, and the second I spritzed it, I knew it was over for me and every other perfume I ever claimed to love. Buy the travel size (and perhaps eventually the full size), and it will be the best thing you gift yourself maybe ever. Normally, I say fragrance and perfume are extremely subjective, but this bottle just might be the exception.

I've been seeing this perfume from Prada all over my (various) feeds lately, and I can't wait to try out the mix of neroli, amber, and musk.
