There’s something so rewarding about scoring that high-end moisturizer, pricey bronzer or designer fragrance at a price much lower than the original. What’s even more satisfying is being among the first to snag a brand new product straight off the delivery truck. Nordstrom’s Anniversary Beauty Exclusives Event gives those of us who diligently shop deals all year long access the latest beauty collections and exclusive free gifts at brag worthy prices. Get the best of both worlds on Monday, June 22 when items go on pre-order at nordstrom.com and in Nordstrom stores. The sale goes live for two weeks starting July 17 both online and at a Nordy’s near you.
