Nordstrom Half Yearly Sale Picks

Hope you all had a very Merry Christmas! It was the best Christmas ever celebrating with my newly 7-year-old twins. I absolutely love this age! Experiencing the wonder and excitement of Christmas through their eyes has been incredible.

I’ll be sharing some personal reflections on 2017 later on this week, but wanted to go ahead and highlight the Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale, which started today! I know many of you have Christmas money and gift cards burning holes in your pockets, so here are my top picks of sale items to score while they are still in stock!

I have included several great athletic wear options {like my go-to Zella leggings} for those of you looking to amp up your workout/gym style in the New Year!

Also, Beautycounter launched a Winter Sale today. Lots of cosmetic items and makeup brushes are 30% off for a limited time with code WINTERSALE. It’s the perfect time to revamp your makeup bag to make it safer for the New Year!

Here are my Beautycounter Sale Favorites ::

1. Matte Bronzer.  My all-time favorite bronzer. The color is spot on and I wear this every single day! I wear No. 1 in the Winter and No. 2 in the Summer!

2. Eyeshadow Duo in Pearl/Champagne. This is my everyday go-to eyeshadow. I use this on my eyelid and brow bone for day and then layer with a darker shadow for evening. It also doubles as a highlighter for face! Several other eyeshadow shades are also on sale here.

3. Lip Gloss in Ruby. My all-time favorite red gloss. It’s a pretty sheer red that flatters any skin tone and is AMAZING layered over a red lipstick. This lipgloss is ultra-moisturizing and smooth rather than sticky! If you prefer a more sheer lip gloss, this color is also on sale.

4. Angled Blush Brush. I use this brush to apply my bronzer, blush and highlighter! I just bought a new set of Beautycounter brushes for the New Year and it feels so nice to start out with a clean slate! Several other brushes are on sale, too!

5. Ocean & Pacific Palette. This gorgeous palette includes six eyeshadows, plus a blush, bronzer, and highlighter. The colors are gorgeous, and I love how easy this makes packing makeup for travel. It also makes a fabulous gift!

Stylishly yours,
