Nordstrom is preparing yet another beauty event that’ll be pillaging my checking account: their annual Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Beauty Exclusives. The event runs from July 18th through August 3rd and will feature a very limited supply of goods from over 100 beauty brands, including MAC, Chanel, NARS, Kiehl’s, Laura Mercier, Dior, Bobbi Brown and Philosophy.
So how can you get in on the action if you’re not up for fighting the sale-mongering harpies at 7am? Easy: pre-order your products online! Go to Nordstrom.com and reserve your limited edition beauty products before the droves of shoppers have a chance to snatch them out of your hands. I heart the Internet.
Check out the press release about it below:
June 17, 2008 – July 18th through August 3rd, shoppers nationwide will participate in what has been an annual ritual since the 1960’s, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. Vacation days are planned around it, lines form in anticipation of it – and it’s not only for the pre-season savings on fall fashion and accessories.
During the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, the Cosmetic department provides their devoted beauty customers the opportunity to scoop up unique limited-edition items from a wide variety of brands, which are only available during this time.
The Nordstrom team works closely with their fragrance, cosmetic, hair care, skincare and men’s grooming brands to develop compelling and one-of-a-kind offerings solely for this event. Some brands use this opportunity to preview fall product launches while others see it as a chance to get a little experimental with the product development process. It also allows brands to create value sets for their customers. This means sneak previews of next season, the chance to pick up something few others will have, and the prospect of finding great beauty deals.
This year, over 100 beauty brands are participating. Some highlights include MAC, Chanel, Juicy Couture, NARS, Kiehl’s, Laura Mercier, Marc Jacobs, Dior, Bobbi Brown and Philosophy. True beauty addicts can go online to nordstrom.com or stop into Nordstrom stores to pre-order starting on June 23rd. As of July18th, the sale goes live and customers both in store and online can purchase the limited-edition Nordstrom Beauty Exclusives.
