7 Beauty Splurges worth the Hype

7 Beauty Splurges worth the Hype

If you’re looking to spoil yourself with something beautiful, I’ve rounded up my seven favourite high-end beauty products, that are totally worth the splurge! Clarisonic Plus Yes, yes, I know! A Clarisonic is a pretty pricey beauty splurge, but trust me when I say there is nothing else like it on the market. Or at least, that I’ve tried anyway!

I love using mine to cleanse all the makeup gunk off my face at night and I use my body brush to polish my shoulders and arms, which makes them feel soft and beautiful. To read more about this fabulous device, check out my blog post on it here. Price: R3499.00 Available at Stuttafords Chanel CC Cream Without a doubt, Chanel CC Cream is T-H-E best CC cream you will ever come across. I’ve tried a ton, and while there have been good…

Exciting news for all you makeup mad gals out there! There’s a new store in town that will allow you to buy all the world’s best cosmetics online, anytime, all the time! Yes, 24/7 shopping to indulge your beauty addiction. Now that’s what we call fabulous! UPDATE: Sadly it seems the Beauty Store has disappeared from cyberspace. We’ve kept this post up since (1) we don’t delete our content and (2) we’re secretly hoping for it to return. Launched yesterday, Thebeautystore.co.za not only stocks brands you already know and trust such as Bobbi Brown, Chanel, Christian Dior and Dermalogica to mention a few, but also those “I want them bad” brands you see in overseas magazines and blogs that you just can’t get in South Africa. You know, Nina Ricci, Anna Sui, NARS, Paula Dorf and Laura Mercier! Are you jumping for joy yet? I am! The Beauty Store was co-founded two young South African entrepreneurs living in London, Chris Cox and Chase Richards who aim to bring the UK’s online shopping culture to their home country. Thanks guys! You’ve just made a whole lot of new BFF’s! South African models, make-up connoisseurs and fashionistas are already getting excited about…
