Holidays and back to school wiped out your wallet? A girl’s still got to have a little luxury to get her through the year.
By Kate-Marie Thorpe
We’ve rounded up ten delicious treats from the top luxe brands that have more dash than cash.
These little luxuries pack an ongoing spoil-me-rotten punch and will help put a little pep in your step every day. We think you’re definitely ‘worth it’.
For the Fragrance Fanatic: There’s no second-guessing when it comes to Chanel scents. Cult favourite Chance is now available in a limited edition 35ml bottle for a little luxury to take with you everywhere.
RRP $99 from Selected Myer, David Jones and Chanel Beauty Boutiques
For the Clean Queen: La Prairie take skincare to a new level with their water activated Foaming Cleanser. A relaxing mousse formula purifies and soothes, creating a lush finish for oh-so-touchable skin.
RRP $90 from David Jones and laprairie.com.au
For Eye Candy: When it comes to packaging perfection, Guerlain take the cake. Their Écrin 4 Couleurs features silky-smooth eyeshadow come housed in a luxurious, reflective gold case for instant glamour. A must have collector’s piece.
RRP $77.00 from selected David Jones stores and Davidjones.com.au
For Saving Face: Refresh your visage with Sisley Floral Spray Mist. This luxe facial spray instantly freshens and moisturises, and doubles as a decadently scented makeup remover at the end of a long day.
RRP $100 from David Jones and Sisley.com.au
For Rodeo Drive Lashes: When you’re feeling indulgent, mocha seems to be the naughty option over a flat white. To spoil your lashes, try Tom Ford’s Extreme Mascara in Mocha Rush. A rich, dark formula to coat each lash for smoldering, chocolaty eyes.
RRP $62.00 from selected David Jones stores and Davidjones.com.au
For Timeless Elegance: It’s the illuminating cult classic we all know about – if you don’t own YSL’s Touche Èclat, you need to. For those who do, treat yourself to the Limited Wild Edition print, packaged in YSL signature gold and striking leopard spots. Rawr!
RRP $57 from Myer and David Jones while stocks last
For the Cheeky Ones: A revolution in liquid makeup, the Giorgio Armani Maestro Blush highlights cheekbones for a weightless, dewy finish. Available in 3 decadent shades – Fusion 300, 400 & 500 – it’s the cheeky treat you need in your life.
RRP $65 from David Jones and Davidjones.com.au
For Bathtime Bliss: There’s little in this world that is more indulgent than a long, hot soak by candlelight. Jo Malone’s Wood Sage & Sea Salt Home Candle evokes a fresh sea air breeze and windswept shorelines for the ultimate undulgence. Me-time sorted.
RRP $85 from selected David Jones stores and jomalone.com.au
For the Polished Princess: Paint the town red… or pink, or whichever shade of Dior Vernis Nail Polish your heart desires. Their Limited Edition Spring Collection features a cocktail of colours to have your paws prepared for a night of lavish. Our personal favourite is Aventure for a brilliant tangerine gloss – delicious.
RRP $39 from Myer and David Jones
For Luscious Lips: Would a rose by any other name smell as sweet as By Terry’s Baume De Rose Lip Care Wand SPF 15? Not likely. This travel friendly wand with hydrating and plumping formula is definitely worth the investment, if only for the scent alone…
RRP $72 from Mecca Maxima
