10 High-End Beauty Products Worth The Splurge

It’s not a lipstick, it’s not a lip oil – it’s both! YSL’s Loveshine Lip Oil Stick provides the colour payoff of a lipstick and the nourishing slip of an oil. It’s the best of both worlds! It features a creamy, buildable formula and provides hydration for up to 24 hours. And let’s face it – nothing feels more luxe than pulling a designer lippy out of your purse and applying while on the go.

Everyone seems to be obsessed with PATRICK TA’s Major Headlines Double-Take Crème & Powder Blush Duo, despite its higher price tag. If you think of it as two products in one, which it is, it makes sense. The duo compact comes with a cream and powder blush formula, designed for layering. Resulting in a long-lasting bold colour that melts into skin for a beautiful, radiant glow. The same goes for the Contour & Powder Bronzer Duo!

Not nearly enough people talk about Estée Lauder’s Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation. It’s one of those foundations that looks just like skin! It feels weightless while still providing great coverage, and it lasts. It’s everything a $70 foundation should be!

Setting powders, in our opinion, are a makeup product that qualifies for the saying, “You get what you pay for.” Some drugstore powders simply don’t compare to their high-end competitors! Charlotte Tilbury’s Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder features an ultra-fine powder that blurs imperfections and visibly reduces shine, without ever looking cakey. It’s a fan-fave for good reason!

If you’re going to splurge on one thing, let it be skincare. As amazing as a great makeup product is, your skin, therefore skincare, is actually worth investing in. The Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant is a holy grail on our top shelf. Simply applying a small amount to the skin before bed does wonders overnight. It leaves the skin feeling smooth and glowy, while working to reduce fine-lines and blemishes.

Listen – we get not everyone can justify a $280 moisturizer, no matter how great it is. But, if you’re one of the few who can, no one does moisturizer quite like La Mer. The brand came to life after Dr. Max Huber suffered burns in a lab accident and was inspired to create his own destiny. 6,000 experiments and 12 years of searching later, Miracle Broth™ was created. A cell-renewing elixir at the heart of Crème de la Mer, which would finally transform the look of his skin.

You really can’t go wrong with LANEIGE’s Lip Sleeping Mask. It’s ultra-hydrating and can be used as an overnight mask or easily applied throughout the day. Plus, the $32.50 retail price is justifiable for not only how well it works but also for how long it lasts! These little jars of glorious lip product seem to last a lifetime.

If you’re looking to invest in a beauty product that feels luxurious to use, you’ll love Caudalie’s Beauty Elixir Prep, Set, Glow Face Mist. It’s a versatile face mist that preps and nourishes the skin while immediately tightening pores. It can also be used after makeup and throughout the day, working as a refreshing setting spray. (Plus, it smells like a spa.)

K18’s Biomimetic Hairscience Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask is magic in a bottle, if you ask us. It clinically reverses damage in just four minutes. No, really. It does. The patented peptide technology works to repair damage from bleach, colour, chemical services, and heat, restoring strength, softness, smoothness, and bounce to hair. This product is a game-changer for hair!

If you struggle with frizzy hair, COLOR WOW’s Dream Coat Supernatural Spray Anti-Frizz Treatment might be worth a try! It’s described as a spray that keeps straight, wavy, or curly frizz-prone hair silky, glassy, and frizz-free for days – and the reviews seem to agree! Many shared that it’s made a huge difference in the appearance of their hair.
