It's time for Nordstrom's Half-Yearly Sale: Stock up on beauty bestsellers from MAC, NARS and more

The after-Christmas discount extravaganzas are here, and Nordstrom's Half-Yearly Sale is here to kick it off. Not only are clothes, shoes and handbags marked down; tons of beauty products from all the best brands are on sale, too. MAC lipstick, NARS blush, Kiehl's hand cream — all those and more are up to 40% off now through Jan. 6.

If you've never shopped at Nordstrom's beauty department, here's your cue. A moisturizer set from Clinique is 30% off (a Nordstrom-exclusive deal, BTW) and perfect for these cold, dry winter months. And when your skin needs a rosy boost? This Bobbi Brown lip and cheek oil goes on silky smooth and plays nice with all kinds of complexions.

Nordstrom's Half-Yearly Sale features markdowns on a slew of products that regularly sell out at their regular price — that's a compelling reason to snap these deals up soon rather than later. Some bestselling items are already gone, and the sale just started! So go ahead — get set for a beautiful 2025 with our editor-approved picks.
