With the long weekend here, it seems like every brand and retailer is having a Memorial Day sale. I decided to look through the beauty markdowns and, of course, had to start with the first retailer that always comes to mind when it comes to beauty: Sephora.
Through Tuesday, May 26, Sephora’s Memorial Day sale is offering up to 50% off select beauty items, with 825 products currently discounted. Beauty Insiders can also use the code STACKPOINTS to earn 500 bonus points on purchases over $75. The highlights are First Aid Beauty’s Ultra Repair Cream Intense Hydration, Benefit’s Benetint Liquid Lip + Cheek Blush Stain, Maison Margiela Replica’s Beach Walk Eau de Toilette, and Kosas’ BB Burst Tinted Moisturizer Gel Cream.
At Nordstrom, the May 2026 Half-Yearly Sale is going on through June 1, with up to 50% off. In the beauty section, standouts include Westman Atelier’s Vital Skin Care Complexion Foundation, Kate McLeod’s ultra-hydrating Body Stone, Armani Beauty’s bestselling concealer, and NOTO Botanics’ Agender Hair & Body Oil.
