Luxe Clean Beauty Worth the Splurge
Let’s be honest: there are a lot of very expensive beauty products out there, especially in clean beauty, since the ingredient standards are higher which means the cost of them is often higher as well. Many of these products are overpriced. However, there are some out there that are absolutely worth the splurge and will deliver on their promises. This post contains affiliate links, so if you decide to purchase any of these, I would be ever so thankful even you used them (I also have a few discount codes sprinkled in!). I’ve tried & happily used them all, so get ready to finally discover what’s worth your hard earned money. ☺️
Luxury Clean Skincare Worth the Splurge

True Botanicals Ginger Turmeric Cleansing Balm ($48): this balmy cleanser works SO well as a first cleanse to remove your sunscreen and/or makeup! It’s rosacea friendly (contains azeleic acid), leaves the skin soft but not greasy, and it helps reduce redness. Using this is a truly sensorial experience! A little goes a long way, which makes the product last a while. Get it here!

Kosas GrowPotion ($48): This is a 2-in-1 brow and lash boosting serum with peptides and vegan keratin, pro-vitamin B5 and hyaluronic acid. I’m AMAZED at how GrowPotion has helped me regrow brows/lashes in the areas in which I was missing them, and it made my brow and lash hair follicles stronger. It’s also super gentle on your eyes; mine are very sensitive and I haven’t experienced irritation at all. Get it here!

Clearstem Skincare CELLRENEW Serum ($62): This is a one-of-a-kind serum, that originated Clearstem as a brand. It’s perfect for both acne and anti-aging: it’s filled with collagen stem cells, green tea, reishi mushroom, saw palmetto (help balance oil production & hormonal acne), turmeric and B5 (that halt inflammation) and aloe vera. It’s completely changed my skin by healing hyperpigmentation, diminishing hormonal acne and speeding up healing time on existing acne PLUS it also calms my rosacea.

Alpyn Beauty Willow & Sweet Agave Plumping Lip Mask ($28): This lip mask is super rich and hydrating, melts into the lips and created a protective layer that lasts. This is an elite product for sure, and if you have dry lips (who doesn’t) this will repair and nourish them 100%. When I apply this at night, I find my lips are still nourished in the morning. It’s the perfect clean dupe for the Laneige Lip Mask (which isn’t clean). Use code GREENBOOTLIFE to save 15% off Alpyn Beauty and shop here!

Le Prunier Plumscreen SPF 30 ($78): Let me tell you, this sunscreen is MAGICAL. Never in my life have I felt a mineral sunscreen go on my face this smoothly, just like a light moisturizer would. It gave me zero irritation, zero breakouts, and zero greasiness. I skip my moisturizer and just use this instead, as it’s nourishing enough for my combo skin (this is very rare with a zinc based sunscreen!). This is definitely an investment, however, if you’ve not found the right SPF after years of searching and have very finicky skin, give it a try by getting their travel size first! This SPF leaves no white cast whatsoever. Finally, I love that it comes in a recyclable aluminum tube. Get it here!
Luxury Clean Makeup Worth the Splurge

Fitglow Beauty Lip Colour Serum ($42): Lip color and lip treatment in one: that’s what you get with the Fitglow Lip Colour Serums! “Organic Pomegranate Plant Sterols, Beet Extract, Vegetable Collagen and Antioxidants improve lip structure, diminish look of fine lines, and leave lips full and soft.” I can attest to this! My lips always look and feel more hydrated, plump and healthy, PLUS they never get dry even when the lip serum fades! These are one of the cleanest lip glosses on the market, hands down. My go-to shade is “Nudie” (pinkish nude). Shop them here!

Ilia Multi Stick ($36): This is a great on-the-go, easy-to-use, multi-tasker. The multi-sticks come in 12 shades and are great as blush and lip color (and some even double as a highlighter!). It’s got great color payoff and a little goes a LONG way. Ilia’s Multi Sticks MELT into the skin for a natural flush of color. I LOVE the shade “A Fine Romance”. Buy it here!
Image Source: Haus Labs
Haus Labs Triclone Skin Tech Foundation ($45): Ever since I bought this foundation at Sephora, I’ve not stopped using it! I am absolutely BLOWN AWAY by it. It’s acne safe, sensitive skin friendly (thanks to arnica!), and non-toxic. The foundation offers buildable, medium to full coverage that blends beautifully for a natural, satin finish. My skin is very finicky (I have acne & rosacea), so most clean beauty foundations either break me out, sensitize my skin or end up being too oily looking - this doesn’t happen with the Haus Labs foundation at all! Totally worth the money. Well done Lady Gaga & Haus Labs team! Shop it here!

RMS Beauty Eyelights Cream Eyeshadow ($28): This cream eyeshadow is a dream product for anyone looking for eye makeup that doesn’t crease, is nourishing, long lasting and has beautiful luminosity! Eyelights come in sustainable aluminum tubes, and a little goes a super LONG way. They’re great for all ages and come in 9 beautiful shades!

RMS Beauty ReDimension Hydra Powder Blush ($35): This blush went viral when it came out for a reason. The Hydra Powder Blush is so unique: its’ bouncy, light-as-air gel blends and builds color, which gives the cheeks a hydrated & luminous look (which is hard to achieve with powder blushes). PLUS, once you buy your first, you can save by only purchasing the refills and inserting them into your original compact. Use this link and code GREENBOOTLIFE for 20% off RMS Beauty!
