These Always-Popular Beauty Products Are Sure to Sell Out Before Fall Arrives

Kaitlyn McLintock  Fri, 04 Aug 2023  Who What Wear Get them before they're gone.

There are two types of people out there—those who wait with bated breath for the first day of fall to arrive, and those who mourn the end of summer. Somehow, I'm both. I'll miss warm, sunny days, but I'm excited to bring out my favorite sweaters and jackets. I'll miss the beach, but I'm excited to buy a fresh new face oil. I'll miss late-night drinks on the patio, but I'm excited to wear a full-coverage foundation without worrying it will sweat off as soon as I step outside. You get the idea.  It's better to be prepared than not, so I've already set my sights on the trendiest and most effective fall beauty products. While I've done a lot of online shopping, there's one place I keep coming back to, and that's Nordstrom, simply because of its selection of beauty products that live up to the hype. Keep scrolling to see the 15 Nordstrom beauty products that are worth buying before fall arrives—especially since some of them could be sold out by then. 

With the "cloud skin" trend and an emphasis on higher-coverage formulas, all signs point to this iconic foundation being even bigger come fall. I love its smooth, matte finish and its on-point shade range. 

This soft blue cleansing balm is the best fall skincare treat for makeup-covered skin thanks to soothing ingredients like blue tansy, German chamomile, and vanilla. It melts upon contact into luxurious milk that dissolves stubborn sunscreen, foundation, and lipstick. I'm planning on using this every night to create a sort of soothing skincare ritual. 

Fall is the kick-off to my hibernation season, so I'm obviously going to invest in skin and hair-benefiting silk pillowcases. The silk creates less friction than traditional cotton or linen, which means it doesn't cause rough hair and creased skin after a long snooze. It's low-key an incredibly effective beauty accessory. 

This perfume has been popular all year, thanks to a truly stunning streak on TikTok, but I predict it will make an even bigger splash in fall. That's because people tend to return to richer, smoother scents during that time, and this fits the bill. With notes of jasmine, saffron, cedarwood, and ambergris, it smells luxurious, warm, and slightly woody.

If you're like me, you could use some serious post-summer hair repair. And for that, I'm buying a bottle (or two) of this iconic strengthening treatment. It repairs broken bonds in the hair shaft, so it's a godsend when it comes to dry, damaged, and chemically processed hair. 

Since chemical exfoliants can make the skin more susceptible to sun damage, I tend to lay off them in the summer months. But the first day of fall is when I come back to them. I want to tackle any sun damage and hyperpigmentation that might have accrued, and I also want to smooth any rough texture. This internet-famous peeling solution does both. 

I'm calling it: Fall is the season in which big, bouncy blowouts can return without being affected by high heat, sweat, and humidity. My favorite way to easily achieve the look is with these hot rollers. They might seem old-school, but trust me, they work (and I have proof). 

In the realm of TikTok-viral beauty products, this Dior Lip Glow Oil might reign supreme. And I can totally see why. Its lightweight texture and sheer color make my lips look glossy and plump. I'm predicting it will continue to be buzzy long into the fall season—if not even more so. 

My skin needs a rich cream come fall, and this no-frills formula is the one. It boasts five essential ceramides to support the skin barrier and keep moisture locked in. 

Boy Smells is a brand that's always popular, but I'm convinced this limited-edition candle will be an item that's particularly difficult to find come fall. With notes of cedarwood, rose, cardamom, moss, and cinnamon leaf, it's rich and grounding. Plus, that scarlet packaging is entrancing. 

Come fall, my sun-kissed glow is on its way out, so I like to fake it with this shimmery-but-not-glittery highlight stick. I like to use it on the high points of my face and my eyelids for sophisticated radiance. P.S. Sofia Richie-Grainge calls this her "favorite highlighter ever." 

I'm obsessed with body care products all year round, but my skin needs a little extra help when the weather turns cold. This iconic formula has antioxidant-rich ingredients as well as moisturizing cocoa butter, so it never fails to make parched skin feel smooth and soft. 

Another TikTok sensation, this perfume is a warm floral fragrance with notes of lavender, orange, and musk. It smells warm and sophisticated, which is why I think it's a perfect fall scent. 

Niacinamide, B-glucan, hyaluronic acid, shea butter, argan, and avocado oil make this moisturizer incredibly hydrating. Yet, there's no heaviness or stickiness; it's a lightweight emulsion that sinks into the skin. 

A lip mask is a non-negotiable staple in my nighttime routine, especially in the fall. This one is formulated with rich emollients to keep moisture locked into the lips, while papaya enzymes gently whisk away dead or flaking skin.
