I spent some time earlier this week rounding up all thebest things in Nordstrom’s sale section. The greatest number of deals is in the women’s section, though color and size availability can vary greatly. My top picks: light-wash Levi’s for 60 percent off, a Reformation pajama set (that’s at an even better discount thanthe brand’s own summer sale), and organic-cotton undies.

Nurse injectorVanessa Leetold us this sunscreen stick is one of her favorite drugstore buys. “This formula has vitamin E, and it glides on so easily without a greasy feel,” she says. “You get this cooling effect on the skin. It almost feels like when you put on aloe after a sunburn. It’s so pleasant on the skin, and it makes you look forward to reapplying, where the other ones kind of feel like a drag to reapply.”

This blackoutmaskfrom MyHalos is one of our best tricks forgetting a good night’s sleep, even in a dorm. We learned about it from comedianNikki Glaser, who likes to wear it on planes. “Masks are the No. 1 essential thing in my life,” she says. “I’ve tried every sleep mask. I have hundreds of them; I try new ones all the time. And this one I’ve been committed to for a year now. I buy it for all of my friends that have trouble sleeping.”

Lead editorLauren Levysaysthis stain-remover spray is her “laundry holy grail.” She spritzes a little on offending marks, soaks the item in a little water, and it gets rid of nearly everything. “Cherries! Mustard! My 3-year-old gets regular overnight nosebleeds, and I promise you would literally think hissheetsare brand new,” she writes. We’ve also previously recommended this stain remover as the key tocleaning underwear; it’s made with a mix of three enzymes, so it easily tackles starch stains, protein stains (including blood), and oil stains.

The signature “gelato-case-display-like folds” come from spandex (most blankets are made of just polyester), which also lets theblanket“stretch when it cocoons you, making it feel even more like a hug,” she says.
