Pricey Beauty Products I Can’t Live Without
At the ripe old age of 34, I’ve found myself with a medicine cabinet full of pricey beauty products that I adore.
There’s only one real way to determine if pricey products are worth the cost ->
PROOF
and ALL of these products have proven their worth to me.
Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer
As a natural brunette with bleach blonde hair, the health of my hair is a top priority…after I’ve damaged it with ALL the bleach!
The Dyson Hair Dryer dries my hair incredibly fast (10 minutes total compared to 30+ minutes with other dryers), and it’s by far my favorite hair tool. It dries my hair extremely smoothly without sacrificing volume and doesn’t create any flyaways or frizz whatsoever.

Nécessaire
The Body Routine
save $35 when you buy all four from Nécessaire
The Body Essentials
save $20 when you buy all three from Nécessaire
TBH it is annoying how much I like this collection of body care.
Do I still love my under $5 Trader Joe’s body wash?
YES
But let me tell you,
I had no idea as to what I was missing out on until I started to use these products!
My skin has never felt softer, especially after a ton of travel and outdoor adventures.
BKR Glass Water Bottle
Water is the key to enhancing your beauty and to prolonging your youthful look. Consuming an adequate amount of water every day gives you fresh, soft, and glowing skin ->
It helps maintain the optimal body temperature, keeping the skin moist.
It hydrates and replenishes the skin tissues leading to an increase in the skin’s elasticity.
This helps delay the signs of aging such as wrinkles, dark circles, or fine lines
So I bought myself a fancy glass water bottle and haven’t looked back since!
OLAPLEX
Olaplex belongs to the rare elite of buzzy beauty products that ACTUALLY live up to their miraculous claims. It’s the product to which Kylie Jenner has credited her ability to go from raven to platinum overnight. It’s what allowed Julianne Hough to literally transform her natural hair texture from straight to wavy.
I know that the entire system is quite the investment ->

Donna Karan Cashmere Mist Deodorant
Donna Karan Cashmere Mist Deodorant Is the U.S.’s Best-Selling Prestige Body Product
Yep, you read that right.
This deodorant outsells all the other fancy-schmancy products you can get for your body. In fact, New Beauty reports a bottle of Donna Karan’s super-luxe deodorant is sold every two minutes in the United States.
And I FINALLY snagged it after seeing SEVERAL people share their love for it on social media.
Well, the reviews were right. This product is a SERIOUS game changer…even if it is $29.
SkinCeuticals
When it comes to your skin, you can never be too young to start taking care of it (and investing in it).
Rather than fighting your way back to clearer and younger-looking skin, taking a preventative approach by starting early will not only delay the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, it will also put your skin in the best possible position to defend itself against pollution, the sun and other environmental aggressors that can age your skin prematurely.
As our skin changes with age, so should our skincare routine -> and it’s time to invest in SkinCeuticals.
Why do you need to invest in medical-grade skincare?
Investing in medical-grade at-home skincare WILL significantly improve existing skin issues while slowing the skin aging process and protecting against future damage. This means you will be less likely to need aggressive (and pricier) treatments to deal with skin issues in the future.
If you are going to start with any pricey beauty products make it the LHA Cleanser Gel. This is my go-to pricey cleanser for a REASON and it is an easy introduction to the (very expensive) brand.
Aesop Resurrection Rinse-Free Hand Wash
At $10 per 1.7 fluid ounces—this hand sanitizer is expensive for the category but reasonable for the brand.
We are all living in 2020 COVID times so Aesop’s Resurrection Rinse-Free Hand Wash seems like a necessary extravagance, no?
The oils in the rinse-free hand wash (Mandarin orange, cedarwood, and lavender to name a few) subtly overpower any purell alcoholic scent, reminiscent of a doctor’s office.
This hand sanitizer leaves hands noticeably soft, smooth, and fresh feeling.
I’ve yet to hand it over to a friend and have them NOT remark on how marvelous it is!
Like the Donna Karen deodorant, this product sells out quickly…so snag it ASAP.
