Best Black Friday Sales

above Jenni Kayne sweater on sale 25% off

Black Friday is here! I hope you had a great Thanksgiving holiday. We had an early Thanksgiving lunch at our home and then went to see Wicked in theaters. It’s been forever since we’ve been to the movie theater and we all thought the movie was very cute. Loved it!

The sales this year are some of the best I’ve ever seen. I already shopped some early sales and wasn’t planning on shopping more, but the sales are SO good I can’t help but keep browsing. Here’s a roundup list of the best ones I’ve found to save you some time from clicking and searching around.

Save 25% off During the Bluemercury Anniversary Sale

September 13, 2024

Best Beauty Staples from the Bluemercury Anniversary Sale

It’s been a while since I’ve done a sale alert roundup but this one is too good to not share. Bluemercury is celebrating their 25th anniversary with up to 25% off orders $250+ now through 9/22 for Bluerewards members (some exclusions apply). Use code NEWBLUE. If you’re not a member you can sign up for free to unlock access to members-only benefits, offers and events.

This came at the perfect time for me since I’ve had a few pricey things on my list to restock but was waiting for a promo somewhere. I shared my Top 10 luxury beauty must-haves on Instagram in partnership with Bluemercury. I received a lot of great feedback on RMS, La Mer and some other things so I wanted to share a closer look here with some swatches.

Brand exclusions include: Aesop, Baobab, Bluemercury Sets, Diptyque, IS Clinical, Jan Marini, SkinCeuticals, Trudon, Victoria Beckham Beauty, Vintners Daughter. Brands capped at 20% include Elta MD, Oribe, PC Skin, Sturm, Therabody. Dyson products are 15% off.

Skincare Favorites

There are so many great skincare brands that are part of the sale. Three I rotate regularly include La Mer, Sisley and Augustinus Bader. I still love the La Mer Moisturizing Soft Cream as one of my daily go-to’s for a luxury cream. As far as hydrating face mists go, I’ve really loved La Mer for a luxe option and the new Revitalizing Face Mist is one I’ve really enjoyed.

I’m still very sad that La Mer discontinued their original The Tonic and replaced it with The Essential Tonic, but it’s very good – just thicker, more hydrating and almost like an essence/toner. I do recommend it but the Sisley Floral Toning Lotion is my absolute favorite (alcohol free) for sensitive skin. It is scented but it’s very soft and fragrance is very low on the ingredient list. Out of all the toners the Sisley one is the one I’ve repurchased the most and it really works well to refresh and balance the skin.

La Mer The Moisturizing Soft Cream, The Concentrate and The Eye Concentrate

I’m obsessed with sheet masks and eye masks. There are so many I have on my list that I want to try. I still really love the La Mer Treadment Lotion Hydrating Masks but they are insanely expensive. A couple of you recommended I check out the Deep Purifying Mask and I think it’s my favorite purifying mask (sold out online but might be available at your local store). I didn’t want to splurge, but it’s 10/10 as good as you have said it is.

For an eye mask I love the Augustinus Bader Eye Patches for a hydrogel mask. It really does work well to help with depuffing and it leaves the under eye area refreshed. I also really enjoy the 111Skin Rose Gold or Cryo De-Puffing ones. ReVive also makes an excellent one called the Instant DePuffing Gel Eye Mask.

 

Hair Care Favorites

Haircare Favorites Oribe

I’m obsessed with Oribe and Hair Rituel by Sisley. I feel like Oribe has some of the best shampoo, conditioners and masks – no matter what I try, I keep going back to the Gold Lust line and love the Shampoo, Conditioner and Dry Shampoo.

Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray and Gold Lust Dry Shampoo

The Sisley Hair Rituel Hair Oil is the best hair oil I’ve tried. I’ve tried dozens and this has the best consistency that doesn’t weigh down my hair for a soft glossy shine and has a pleasant scent. I also really love their shampoos and conditioners but at the rate I go through hair product it would be too expensive for me to repurchase over and over again.

Hair Rituel by Sisley Precious Hair Oil Review | The Beauty Look Book

Mason Pearson brushes are also part of the sale. I rarely ever see these go on sale (although Gilt has a good selection at a discount). Out of all the brushes I’ve purchased the Mason Pearson brushes are the best quality and have lasted me the longest. I love the larger Popular Brush and the Pocket Size (bristle + nylon).

Mason Pearson Brushes

Makeup Favorites

Lots of makeup favorites that is part of the sale. There’s really so much I could mention but here are some highlights.

I’ve been playing with RMS Beauty more and am beyond obsessed. I think the ReDimension Hydra Powder Blushes are 10/10 on all points: colors, pigment, texture, glowy finish, lasting power, blendablity. I have a few shades and love Crystal Slipper for the best neutral and anytime I wear French Rose I get TONS of compliments (I should wear it more). Also think the ReDimension Hydra Dew Luminzer and Hydra Bronzers are incredibly beautiful, but the blushes are the stand outs.

RMS ReDimension Hydra Powder Blushes swatches

ReDimension Hydra Dew Luminzer and Hydra Bronzers

I picked up some lip items to try. I absolutely LOVE the Legendary Serum Lipsticks. These are twist up super opaque creamy lipsticks with a satiny matte finish and the formula is unlike anything else I’ve tried. They almost have a cooling sensation when you apply (not minty or tingly though). The pigment is INCREDIBLE. There are few new nude shades and I really love Mae and Jayne.

RMS Legendary Serum Lipsticks

I love the Go Nude Lip Pencil texture. I definitely want to check out more shades soon but I picked up Morning Dew and Night Time Nude.

I could go on and on about Tom Ford Beauty. I would say my top 3 picks are the Eye Color Quad (love so many of these but think Hazy Sensuality is incredibly), the Eye Defining Pen is the best liquid liner, and the Shade and Illuminate Duo in Peach Light.

Tom Ford Hazy Sensuality

Tom Ford Hazy Sensuality

Pat McGrath LUST Gloss is the best smooth non-sticky gloss on the market. I really love all the shades, in particular Love Potion, Nude Venus and Peach Perversion.

Pat McGrath LUST Gloss

RMS Legendary Serum Lipstick Jayne + Pat McGrath LUST Gloss Peach Perversion + RMS Crystal Slipper Blush

RMS Legendary Serum Lipstick Jayne + Pat McGrath LUST Gloss Peach Perversion + RMS Blush in Crystal Slipper

Sisley makes the best matte eyeliner, I love the Phyto-Khol Star Matte Eye Pencil.

A quick shout out for the La Mer Lip Volumizers. I really love the formula as a hydrating lip product. They added sheer tinted shades and while these are pretty much clear on the lips, I still really love the formula. On me they’re really not plumping but more like a smooth glossy serum that hydrates them with a cushiony feel.

La Mer Lip Volumizers

Beauty Tools

Best Beauty Tools Hourglass, NARS and Laura Mercier

A quick mention on makeup brushes. Makeup tools are expensive and quite an investment. Three brands I really love for quality and ones that have lasted me years are from Laura Mercier, Hourglass and NARS. I shared a closer look here in a video format which I think is more helpful than photos (they’re also linked).

Perfumes

Parfums de Marly Valaya

My last mention is perfume. Parfums de Marly, Creed, Tom Ford and a lot of luxe brands are part of the sale. I still really love Valaya. I might repurchase Creed Aventus for my husband.

I know I covered a lot, I hope this helps in case you were wondering about any of the items I shared in my video yesterday! I know there will be more sales coming up in the holiday months but if you were looking to try out anything new or restock something I think the savings in this event are very good!

UPDATE: A few of the links were not working but I fixed them all. Hope they work now. Also for those of you who said the code NEWBLUE doesn’t work, be sure to be signed up for the Bluemercury BlueRewards! It’s free – you just have to setup your profile first before the promo code will work.

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2024 – First Look

July 7, 2024

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2024 BEAUTY EXCLUSIVES PREVIEW

The Nordstrom Anniversary sale starts this week with early access for cardmembers. They launched an online preview of this event and I’ve rounded up the highlights for their Beauty Exclusives, clothes, accessories and more.

The Anniversary Sale happens once a year. Nordstrom Cardmembers have early access depending on what tier you are. Access dates are as follows starting July 9th this week:

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2024 Dates

There are a lot of options available and since things tend to sell out quickly I recommend going through each category that interests you and start building a wishlist. There’s an “Add to Wish List” button on each individual product page. Simply click the heart icon and it will save it to your Wishlist Page in your account. That way when your access date starts you can easily add things to cart.

For my beauty lovers there are lots of NSALE Beauty Exclusives. I’ve shopped the sale every single year and over the years they’ve seemed to shift the offering themes to discounted bundles and value sets (or sizes) vs. new exclusive colors or things you can only find during the sale.

I went through every category and still found quite a few things to put on my wishlist. There are a lot of luxury brands that have value sets I think are worth checking out, especially if you’ve had something like La Mer, Parfums de Marly, Armani Beauty, Jo Malone, Augustinus Bader, Oribe etc. on your radar.

Whether you’re shopping in store or online, be sure to check out the GIFT WITH PURCHASE page! Once the sale starts Nordstrom updates this page regularly. They don’t always have all the gifts in store (some are online only) and even in store in the associates don’t always know about brand specific GWPs.

Here’s what I’ve put on my radar by category. Quick note: since many of these are bundles or value sets of “best sellers” know that similar options will probably launch come the holiday season. Still it’s a nice way to save.

Quick update: Special shoutout for the Eric Javits Hamptons Hats as I get a lot of questions about them. They are on the expensive side but are very sturdy. They’ve lasted so well even with pool and salt water (I just make sure I rinse them with fresh water if they ever get wet). The weave is thick enough that it does protect your face from the sun. I also love that they’re floppy but not so floppy they end up covering your eyes (if that makes sense). They have a lot of different styles and brim sizes too. Their visors are nice but I prefer the full coverage hats. For those who want to know about the different colors I’ll repost a photo I shared a few years ago. (Andrew actually picked out the hats for me!)

I have one tote from them the Squishee Isla Straw Bag and I really love it (I also think this colorway is pretty). I think I may get another style.
