Nordstrom 125 beauty deals are live now, with 15% off sitewide as the retailer marks its 125th anniversary through a Beauty Savings Event running from 15 to 23 September. Unlike the tiered summer Anniversary Sale, this one is open to everyone from day one, no loyalty status required.
The event covers skincare, fragrance, makeup, and haircare, and includes a handful of N125-exclusive sets alongside the standard sitewide discount. Select brands, including Bobbi Brown, MAC, Sisley-Paris, and Moroccanoil, are carrying deeper discounts beyond the standard 15%.
What the Nordstrom 125 Beauty Deals Actually Cover
Autumne West, beauty director at Nordstrom, describes the current shift in how shoppers are approaching their routines. ‘It’s less about piling on more product and more about upgrading the formulas you already use so your routine works harder for you,’ she says. That thinking shapes much of what is on offer across the skincare section, where skin-care-infused makeup and standalone treatments sit side by side.
On fragrance, West sees the season pushing in a familiar direction. ‘Expect things to get a little warm and spicy this fall, though that vanilla note is still lingering everywhere,’ she says. Jo Malone’s Scarlet Beetroot Eau de Parfum is down to $78 from $92, balancing beetroot and blackcurrant with earthy patchouli. The Victoria Beckham Eau de Parfum 21:50 Rêverie, a 2025 Best of Beauty winner with a vanilla, plum and tonka bean profile, drops to $170 from $200.
In makeup, Estée Lauder’s Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation falls to $44 from $52. The formula was recently reformulated to cover 70 shades with a longer wear time of up to 36 hours. Allure editor-in-chief Jessica Cruel noted it held up after hours of sweating and socialising. MAC’s MACximal Sleek Matte Lipstick, which claims up to 12 hours of matte coverage, comes in at $21.
Haircare and the Case for a Lighter Oil
Haircare is well represented across the Nordstrom 125 beauty deals, and a few products stand out for solving specific frustrations. The Moroccanoil Treatment Mist at $17 (down from $20) is worth a look if hair oils have previously weighed your hair down. The mist format gives you more control over application, so strands stay nourished without going greasy even on consecutive days.
Cosmetic chemist Sherry Backman, based in Brattleboro, Vermont, pointed to the Oribe Hair Alchemy Strengthening Treatment Serum as a practical choice for hair that is becoming finer or more prone to breakage. ‘A serum like Oribe’s Hair Alchemy Fortifying Treatment Serum can shield and preserve aging hair,’ she says. The formula combines chia seed, bio-fermented bamboo, and plant-based protein; it is currently on sale at $27, down from $32.
New York City-based hairstylist Jennifer Korab called the T3 Airebrush her go-to styling tool for beginners, citing its simple settings, lightweight build, and quick results. At $128, it is down from $150.
Skincare highlights include the Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Overnight Hydrating Face Mask, formulated with 10.5% squalane, at $38 from $45, and La Mer’s Crème de la Mer Moisturizing Cream at $332 from $390. Jenny Bailly, executive beauty director, singled out True Botanicals’ Chebula Multi-Corrective Eye Patches, at $64 from $75, saying that after wearing them through her morning routine, ‘my eyes look refreshed and my concealer goes on much more smoothly.’
The Nordstrom 125 Beauty Savings Event closes on 23 September, and stock on sale items, particularly the N125-exclusive sets, is finite.
