The Most Expensive Skincare Products in the World

Bougeoir is here to tell you that your ten-step skincare routine is not over the top; in fact, there's always another expensive skincare product to try that promises shocking benefits. Here are a few of the newest and classic cult favorites to try.

While some prefer to keep their routines quick, simple, and affordable, skincare lovers often seek out high-end, luxury skincare lines with eye-opening price tags. And that's not to say that either one is better than the other—the whole point is to stick with whichever works with your preferences and needs. Still, if you're getting sick of being told your ten-step routines are "too elaborate" or "over the top," Bougeoir has rounded up the most expensive skincare products to make you feel otherwise. So, the next time someone criticizes how much you spend on skincare, or even makeup, pull out some of these examples.


Dior L'Or de Vie La Crème - Métiers D'Art Limited Edition: $7,500

​Dior L'Or de Vie La Crème - Métiers D'Art Limited Edition

​Though Bougeoir's beauty experts were expecting to find some jaw-dropping price tags, nothing could have prepared us for the cost of Dior's limited edition face cream. It's one of the most expensive moisturizers in the world, if not the most expensive skincare product. How can they justify four figures on a 1.7-ounce moisturizer? Well, for one, there are only 130 of these in the world. But if you're wondering about the key benefits, Dior claims that this eliminates signs of aging, thanks to its Yquem sap.

La Prairie Platinum Rare Haute-Rejuvenation Face Cream: $1,690     

La Prairie Platinum Rare Haute-Rejuvenation Face Cream

While this is a lot cheaper than the Dior L'Or De Vie cream, $1,690 on a moisturizer is still incredibly hefty, even for La Prairie. Among the most expensive skincare products in the world, this La Prairie moisturizer claims to rejuvenate the skin from the deepest layers, but its key selling point is its ability to reduce wrinkles and fine lines through its heavily researched Platinum Multi-Peptide.

​Guerlain Orchidee Impreial Black Cream $1500

Guerlain Orchidée Impériale Black Cream

The Cream succeeds in the prowess of conciliating high-efficacy and high-sensorial experience thanks to its fine and generous formula that wraps the skin in a luxurious cocoon of protection. Made with ingredients with different fusion points, it offers a soft balm touch that triggers a cascade of melting sensations upon application. Continuously protected, skin can thus devote all its resources to its regeneration, for skin that is more beautiful and younger-looking, for longer.

​Clé de Peau Beauté Synactif Cream: $1,125

Clé de Peau Beauté Synactif Cream

Similar to the La Prairie and Dior moisturizers, this moisturizer from Clé de Peau Beauté promises to reverse signs of aging. However, it claims to do more than just that. (I mean, if it's one of the most expensive skincare products in the world, it should). The Synactif cream nourishes and repairs the skin barrier, and, thanks to its unique formula that includes retinol, neem leaf extract, and double hyaluronic acid, to name a few, it also helps the skin look more lifted and contoured.

Chanel Sublimage L'extrait De Nuit Ultimate Rejuvenating Night Concentrate $720

Chanel Sublimage L'Extrait De Nuit

Composed of 91% naturally derived ingredients*, its innovative formula rejuvenates the look of the skin and helps to protect its moisture barrier. From the very first morning, the complexion has a rested, radiant appearance. Its formula features a transforming texture and contains millions of micro-droplets, for the perfect balance of freshness and nourishment. It offers a unique sensory experience enriched of all the beneficial fractions of Vanilla Planifolia, combined with Swertia extract. 


​La Mer The Renewal Oil: $285

La Mer The Renewal Oil

La Mer might have some of the most outrageously expensive skincare products ever, but if there's one thing you should consider purchasing from them, it's their Renewal Oil. Though its price mostly comes with the luxe feel of using a La Mer product, this facial oil literally does it all: it softens lines and wrinkles, and nourishes and protects your skin from environmental stressors. Plus, it helps you achieve a natural glow from within. When you really think about it, $285 on a face oil might break the bank, but sometimes you need to treat yourself.
