items These are the products that I would recommend to anyone who wants to splurge on beauty/self care products but aren't sure if it's worth it and/or quality products that work but also won't cost you your whole pay check.
My skin over the years have become more sensitive and made me more aware and cautious of what I put on my face and body.
Through many trial and error, and a lot of money spent, I have reached the point where I just want to be able to repurchase the same products because they work instead of following trends.

As someone that is prone to cold sores and cracked/dry lips - this product has been the only lip product that has stopped my cold sores from getting worse and even getting rid of it altogether!
I buy the original one as its flavour and smell is mild and doesn’t make me feel sick. It locks in moisture and keeps my lips soft.
And it’s soo affordable. Cannot recommend this product enough!
- Affordable ($14AUD)
- Keeps lips hydrated and soft
- Very mild (if any) scent *the original lip balm
- Personally have helped with cold sores and prevention of cold sores
- Great for people like me who often have dry/cracked lips

Mario Badescu - Lip Balms and Treatments
This serum is on the pricier side but it's been the only Hyaluronic Acid serum that I have been repurchasing since finding it.
I love the texture and while it does have a mild scent to it, I find it quite pleasant.
This is my staple morning serum, my face looks like healthy, plumped, glowy and feels soft and smooth all throughout the day.
It's great for my sensitive skin and a little goes a long way. This product does go on sale quite often which is usually when I purchase it so don't let the hefty price scare you if you're considering it! (you can save it to your wish list and keep a...
- Plumps and hydrates skin - helped with my dull & dry skin
- Goes on sale often (so don't let the price put you off)
- Anti-Ageing, Hyaluronic Acid

La Roche-Posay - Anti-Ageing Serum Hyalu B5
Okay this has been one of the best creams I have gambled upon!
I saw it and for some reason the consistency intrigued me and I'm so glad I took a chance on it because I'm never looking back.
My mum asked me what I have been using as my face has been looking soooo glowy and bright.
My partner even asked if he could use some and loved how it felt.
I use this as my night cream and my skin feels so clean and fresh after applying, it has many skin benefits such as hyaluronic acid and squalane to strengthen the skin’s moisture barrier.
AND don't get me started on the price tag - SO affordable for the quality and amount of product you get.
- Affordable and on sale often
- Improves skin elasticity and reduce wrinkles
- Promotes brighter skin
- Has properties to strengthen skin barrier

medicube - Collagen Jelly Cream
I was using another more expensive brand for Salicylic acid and just found that I was running out soo quickly, paying triple the price and it just wasn't substantial money wise.
I found this and so glad that I did because it lasts ages, I don't have to be stingy with the product as the whole wipe is soaked with product.
It does the same as other products and for a fraction of the price!
- Extremely affordable
- Cleans and exfoliates the skin
- Salicylic, Glycolic and Hyaluronic Acids

This is my morning cream, it is so soft and delicate on the skin and has no scent! It's so affordable and have lasted me ages - I have only had to repurchase twice since the start of the year as.
It has great moisturising properties and great for sensitive skin and normal skin. It adds an extra glow and hydration to your face.

The Face Shop - Rice & Ceramide Moisturizing Cream
One of my staple hand creams to have around. Its small but you don't need much as all you need is a small bit and it keeps my hand moisturised and soft.
Also one of my favourite scents - wish they had a full body cream of this scent!
- Amazing scent
- Very moisturising
- Non oily
- Small tube but a little goes a long way!

Bastide - Figue d'Ete Hand Cream
I have only purchased this once (and still currently using it) and I'm sold - This will definitely be a repurchase, I was in search of a new night cream as I have been off contraceptive so much skin breaks out more than it did and this has kept it at...
I love the texture and consistency and feel so fresh after applying.
The scent isn't over powering but the biggest selling point for me was the infused tea tree oil.
Though the price is quite hefty I will say that I believe it is worth it. Absolutely recommend!
- Calming and soothing for the skin
- Mild scent but does not irritate my sensitive skin
- Has tea tree oil

You can never really go wrong with vaseline.
My legs get really itchy especially after shaving and i have tried and spent a fair bit of money trying to find specified creams that could aid with the itch and razor burns and honestly this lotion has been the only cream to keep the itch at bay.
My lesson was you don't need to go looking or spending more than you should because luxury branded products doesn't always means it works.
This lotion is extremely affordable especially for the volume you get, smells amazing, isn't greasy and lasts a very long time - If you get itchy legs or rashes like me, I highly recommend this product!
- Affordable and very accessible (can purchase online or in store at drug stores, supermarkets etc.)
- Smells amazing without it being too overpowering
- Helps with razor burns and itches
- Non greasy

Vaseline Body Lotion Cocoa Glow
Jo Malone is differently a splurge but one that I believe is absolutely worth it.
Their scents are more musky, floral, woodsy, powdery and fresh rather than sweet, so if all that is listed is more your vibe and the kind of smells you like, I cannot recommend Jo Malone enough.
I had been searching for my ultimate staple scent for so long and I have found them.
I own 3 full bottles, and a few 30mls which includes:
English Pear & Freesia - Fresh & clean
English Pear & Sweet Pea - fresh and musky
Mimosa & Cardamom - Musky with a hint of sweetness
Personally, I find the longevity great, you don't need to spray too much either, and theres a scent that could cater to anyones vibe - I recommended sampling the discovery set to see if they do cater to your go to scents before purchasing the full bo...
- Different scents that could cater to anyones go to scents - however Jo Malone produces more floral, woodsy etc. kind of smells.
- Longevity is great
- Splurge but don't need to spray much so will last you very long

Jo Malone Fragrance
I have stopped wearing make up so often but when I head out this is one of the only products I use to look some what put together.
It gives the perfect amount of tint and keeps my lips feeling soft throughout the day.
It is not sticky at all and scent is very mild but smells great!
It's a bit on the pricier side but will last you ages as you do not need to apply much at all.
I always get the Dulce De Leche which is perfect for my olive skin.
- Lip balm and lip tint!
- Different colours to choose from
- One tube will last you a while
- Not sticky
- Very mild scent
