The Best Beauty Sales of the Week
As a deals writer, I sift through hundreds of discounts every day, and my favorites are always the beauty sales (the price drops are often very impressive). Each week, I find the best beauty products on sale, exclusively for Beauty Brief newsletter subscribers. Everything I surface here is something we stand behind — either we have written about it before, or it’s from a brand we trust. Below, my top picks of the week. To make sure you never miss a good beauty sale, sign up for the Beauty Brief newsletter.

Lots of impressive beauty deals just dropped for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, including a handful of rarely-on-sale Le Labo scents. If you’ve never given the statusy fragrances a try, I’d go for this Discovery kit featuring some best sellers (Todrick Hall specifically swears by Santal 33).

Another cost-effective kit, the “Best of Verb” set includes the brand’s revitalizing Ghost shampoo, conditioner, and hair oil; all three are Best in Class and beloved by Strategist editors.

My final recommendation from the Anniversary Sale (though I could recommend well over 20 products) is our favorite blow-dryer brush that never snags hair, is extremely lightweight, and has serious drying power at 1,200 watts.

A more affordable dryer from the Strat-vetted brand Shark delivers salon-level blowouts and is also on sale.

This Best in Class mascara is, in fact, the drama. The hourglass-shaped wand coats every inch of Strategist writer Kitty Guo’s lashes without clumping, leaving them bold, voluminous, and perfect for nights out. I found both the mascara and our favorite mascara primer on sale as a nifty duo at Sephora.

Augustinus Bader’s luxury and effective skin care is 25 percent off at Dermstore for rewards members (all it takes is a simple email sign-up) with the checkout code “VIP” until midnight tonight.I suggest buying the “super-repairing” and dermatologist-backed Rich Cream while it’s a tad less expensive.

If $200-plus skin care isn’t really your thing, our best-overall night cream is now just $17 at Amazon. It ticks all the boxes for our beauty writer Tembe Denton-Hurst, meaning it has a “rich texture, nourishing ingredients, and lots of moisture.”

Also make sure to grab my all-time-favorite moisturizer (and the thicker, fragrance-free version of our best-overall pick) for your morning routine while it’s 25 percent off.
