Something for everybody.

Behold, the Most Expensive Skincare To Blow Your Card On
Technically speaking, what you might consider the “most expensive skincare” can differ from someone else. Props to you dude, if you can pay for a four-figured sum for a tub of cream without batting an eyelid. Props to you too, if you’ve decided that $50 is daylight robbery for a cleanser. But what exactly constitutes this category of “most expensive skincare”?

It could be the selling power behind a luxury brand’s name or the money they shell out to spokespeople. It could be how they’ve bottled gold or caviar that forms the marketing. Or even the science like “stabilising of potency” or “harnessing of rare botanical extracts.”

Which brings us to this point. Sometimes, the most expensive skincare you write a blank cheque for isn’t necessarily better. The right product to buy is the one you like. Be thoroughly informed: do you like said product because it brings some glamour and fun into your routine or do you like it because you’ve read the ingredient list and decided that it’s for you?

That our friends, is the difference.

Pictured above: The Tom Ford Research Crème Concentrate (S$580) contains what we like about the eye cream (conveniently, a quick player in the most expensive skincare hall of fame) — energising caffeine, soothing algae extract and smoothing peptides — but is now applicable for application on the face.



Chanel’s Sublimage L’essence Lumiere (S$750) contains an ingredient called Anythllis: a plant that thrives in hostile climates which makes it a power player in this super moisturising, anti-oxidant rich and nourishing serum — cementing it into the most expensive skincare hall of fame.

The Dior La Solution Lumière Activated Serum (S$570) contains a 92% formula of natural-origin ingredients like Japanese artemisia capillari and white rose nectar to fade dark spots and impart a glow; even for sensitive skin users.



Each of the Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Concentrated Recovery Powerfoil Mask (S$254) contain ChronoluxCB™ technologies to instantly hydrate the skin while the iconic Advanced Night Repair Serum repairs and re-energises. One of the most expensive skincare products? Yes. One of the most worth it? Absolutely.

An icon for 30 years: the Eve Lom Cleanser (S$180) contains a blend of essential oils (clove for blemishes and Egyptian chamomile to soothe) to treat the skin as you’re rubbing it into your skin to break down makeup, oil and dirt.



In a tub of Shiseido Future Solution LX Total Regenerating Cream (S$420) is the highest amount of what the Japanese brand calls SkingenecellEnmei Complex — a concentration of anti-ageing ingredients that boosts the skin’s natural renewal process overnight.
