When it comes to the best beauty deals of the year, Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2023 does not mess around. As a refresher, the fête kicks off on July 11 to card members and ends on August 6. Here are the key dates to mark down so you know exactly when you can start shopping:
- July 3: Online preview begins (so you can start bookmarking deals)
- July 11 to 16: Icon early access
- July 12 to 16: Ambassador early access
- July 13 to 16: Influencer early access
- July 17 to August 6: General access for all!
If you want to score early access, apply for a Nordstrom credit card asap. The retailer offers two types of cards, a retail credit card and Visa credit card, both of which provide the same benefits and are eligible for early access to the Anniversary Sale. While your cardmember status is dependent on yearly spend amounts, all cardmembers automatically start at Influencer status, which means you’ll get an extra four days to shop the sale before it opens to everyone.
Anyways, back to the sale. Why are we so pumped? Hundreds — if not thousands — of brands, including La Mer, Olaplex, Augustinus Bader, MAC, Charlotte Tilbury, and Supergoop have been marked down at the mega-retailer. While inventories are typically high for this annual event, popular items are bound to sell out earlier rather than later — so it’s in your best interest to start bookmarking all of your favorite deals so that you can shop them the minute you have access.
Nordstrom also typically hosts Glam-Up Days — a.k.a. one-day-only flash deals that are marked up to 50 percent off — throughout the general access sale. We’ll keep you posted on these as they roll out starting July 17.
If you want to get a head start on shopping, we’ve got good news: Nordstrom just released a sneak peek at its enormous list of deals and we took it upon ourselves to highlight some of the best deals.
