wearing: plaid pajamas & curling my hair with this curling iron
I always use the Nordstrom Sale as a good excuse to stock up on beauty essentials for the year! Here’s the rundown on everything I bought this year:
ONE // Kiehl’s Jumbo Creme de Corps
I purchase one of these EVERY SINGLE YEAR. No lie, it’s the best body lotion I’ve ever used! It doesn’t have a particularly strong or noticeable scent, which I like, and it’s incredibly rich, creamy and luxurious feeling without being greasy AT ALL. Plus, this bottle is huge – I use it every single time I get out of the shower, and it lasts a full year! I still have about a quarter of a bottle left, and I bought my last one during last year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. If you still don’t believe how good this lotion is, check out this blog post and this one!
My lips are somehow always flaky (which is really annoying when you put on lipstick!) so I picked up this lip exfoliating kit. I tried it out the other night before bed and it’s pretty magical – first you put on the exfoliating balm (it tastes sooo good, like coconuts!), rub it in really well and then wipe it off with a tissue. Next you apply the moisturizing balm. I woke up the next morning with soft, smooth lips!
THREE // Neulash Lash Enhancing Serum Duo
I’ve never used Neulash before, but I picked up this duo to see if it works. It’s supposed to help your lashes grow!
If you’ve read my Nordstrom posts for the past couple of years, you probably know that I pick up one of these sets every single year! I LOVE these candles – even more than the Bath & Body Works ones! The thing I really like about these is that you can light one and in a matter of minutes, the entire house smells amazing.
FIVE // Dior Addict Pink Glow Lip Set
I’m obsessed with Dior makeup and I love this cute little pink kit – it even comes with a mini lip maximizer, which really does plump your lips (temporarily!).
I own this hair dryer (although I got mine before the sale) and it’s the best dryer I’ve ever used. It dries my hair SO fast, and the negative ions help smooth the hair cuticle.
SEVEN // Dior Capture Youth Set
I picked this up too, although I have never tried any of these products before! As I continue into my late 20s (and soon early 30s), I am getting desperate to stop the aging process hahah! These serums have AMAZING reviews on beauty websites.
I use a T3 wand to curl my hair, so I couldn’t believe it when I saw one included in the sale this year!! This one already sold out, but could be restocked on July 20th when the sale goes live to the public (so keep checking). Or you can enter my giveaway and win one or free, below!!
NINE // Slip Pure Silk Queen Pillowcases
I have blogged about these a lot in the past (see here & here). I can’t LIVE without my silk pillowcase, I have even resorted to bringing my pillowcase everywhere with me when we travel! The silk is really gentle on your skin and hair, and also prevents pillowcase wrinkles from sleeping. Chris even loves his, too!!
I haven’t tried this yet, but I’m sooo excited to receive it in the mail!!
Hands down the best makeup brushes! I bought a few of these brush sets so I’ll never run out. I won’t apply my foundation with anything else!

Love this post! I got it he t3 hair dryer last year and it was worth the investment. I’m currently growing out my hair and it’s kinda thin so I need all the help I can get! Your hair is amazing! I love that it’s all yours (no dye or extensions)
Just a heads up I copied the email address directly from your post above and received an error: “the email address doesn’t exist.” Is there perhaps a typo in what you provided above?
Nice! Thanks for all of the tips! I bought the blow dryer at the sale.
Yasss! Caitlin, so happy you did a beauty Nords post. Saijo Persimmon is one of my favorite candles. It also comes in the mini set. I try to buy these for christmas gifts every year. Its such an easy buy. Thank you for sharing your top faves!

Not to be a downer…but that Kiehl's Creme de Corps has a terrible ingredient list. There are some beneficial oils but they use all 3 forms of parabens in this product as their method of preservation. There is enough research to show that parabens are to be avoided when possible (many product lines have taken them out for a reason). This is something you slather on your entire body so the rate of absorption is higher than a face cream for instance. If you are thinking of getting pregnant in the near future, you will have to clean up your beauty routine and switch to new paraben-free lotion anyway. Something to think about xo
Note to add: in case this sounds sketchy I am not representing any other company or am being paid to say this. I am simply a concerned devoted blog reader!
Awesome giveaway.

My hair refuses to hold a curl anymore, maybe it's time for a tools upgrade!
Need that curling iron! And to grow out my hair..
Having long hair, it's hard to find a way to have the curls last all day. I've heard great things about the reliability and sturdiness of the T3 Curling Iron.
I’m moving to Florida this weekend and I’m in need of a new curling iron and your curls are PERFECT!! Ahh so excited!! God bless. ��
Loveeee your curls! Hoping I can rock some cute curls/waves with my “mom” LOB!
I am dying to see the sale picks! I was hoping one of the T3 irons would be on there so it would be awesome to be the winner!!
Sending the email over now!! I’m in dire need of a new curling iron & it’s so nice to hear that you love the one you’re gifting!! Fingers crossed! 🙂
Ps- loveeee all your beauty essential picks for the Nordstrom sale! Can’t wait to shop it! Xoxo

Would Love to win the t3 curler!!!💕
