items These are all products I've used and hated to love because they're so pricey. But I keep repurchasing because they're just too good and I can't find alternatives that come close.

The expensive stuff - but oh so good!
Why do you have to be sooooo good?!
Lancôme Advanced Génifique Serum (SUERO ACTIVADOR DE JUVENTUD)
I've found nothing else that works this amazing on my skin when it's feeling rough and dry. This stuff instantly transforms!
Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads
The instant radiance and glow this gives your skin… without a doubt one one of THE BEST day moisturizers out there.
C.E.O. Afterglow Brightening Vitamin C Gel Cream
Lux Makeup
Yes, definitely a splurge but the kind you won't regret.
I've used many high end lipsticks, but this refillable one from Prada won me over. It is pure luxury, from the scent to the feel on your lip and even the luxe packaging. This a when a splurge ends up being worth it.
Prada Beauty Lipstick
Initially thought I'd never wear this and ended up loving it above all other blushes I own. The shades are all gorgeous and though expensive, I think it's worth it because I keep wearing it constantly.
Discover Eye2Cheek Blush & Eye Color
Another product I initially judged as one I'd never care for and it ended up being my most used. I would even pick this over Charlotte Tilbury any day. The kind of glow it gives you is unlike any other and it's the perfect way to finish off your look...
Highlighting Powder
This stuff is incredible and I hate that it is because it's $40 and not that big! But ever since I got it, I use it non-stop. My lips look and feel amazing with this on! Whyyyy!
YSL Loveshine Plumping Lip Oil Gloss
My lashes never look better than when I've prepped it with this (and the best mascara I've found for it is the Lancôme Lash Idôle Flutter Extension)
Lancôme Cils Booster XL Super-Enhancing Mascara Primer
I love using this mascara only when I'm pairing it with the Lancôme Cils Booster XL Super-Enhancing mascara. That's when I have the longest, separated lashes that look insane!
Lancôme Lash Idôle Flutter Extension Lengthening Mascara
In any shade, it doesn't matter. It's the most flattering, silky feeling formula I've ever used. I will always purchase this even though it's outrageously expensive.
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette
The luminosity! Oh my word! I love the way this looks and feels on my skin. And just a teeny tiny bit is needed so although expensive, it'll last a long time.
V-Lighter Face Primer and Highlighter - Valentino
This gives your skin, but utterly flawless. Not to mention that it feels like having zero makeup on and is made with skin-loving ingredients.
Bobbi Brown Intensive Serum Foundation SPF 40
Fragrances
I'll narrow it down to the ones that I find irresistible and is ALWAYS getting complimented on
The #1 compliment getter in my collection. I can never wear this and not be asked about it many times over that day.
Prada Paradoxe Eau de Parfum
Think mysterious, confident, bold. It's so so good!
Pas Ce Soir Extrait BDK Parfums for women and men
It is aptly named. It's such a feel good scent that everyone notices!
Clinique Happy™ Perfume in 6 Unique Scents
I find it a bit strong for my preference but whenever I wear it, everyone loves it, so… I wear it!
Lancôme Idôle Power L'Eau de Parfum Intense
