One of my goals with my beauty reviews here on the blog is to find cruelty free products that are worth my (and your) money. I don’t know about you, but I live on a budget and want every dollar I spend to be a smart decision. That’s why I want to highlight five high end beauty products that are worth the money. I have purchased each of these products (some more than once or twice!). Since they add a lot of value to my beauty routine, it’s hard to imagine not using them every single day.

Farmacy Clean Bee Ultra Gentle Facial Cleanser, $28
Being a huge fan of the Farmacy brand, I am game to try any and all of their products. This was a purchase from earlier in the year. I needed a new cleanser, something simple that will just clean my skin in the morning and after removing my makeup. This does just that and it smells so good. It has a gentle, spa-like scent that I can’t quite place. I look forward to using it every day, because it makes my skin feel clean without drying it out.

Tatcha Luminous Deep Hydration Revitalizing Eye Mask, $12
If you want one product to pamper yourself with, try an eye mask! They are the easiest way to take my usual night skincare from routine to pampering. These Tatcha masks feel very refreshing and slightly cooling. Any puffiness under my eyes is diminished after using these. I really like them.

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder in Diffused Light, $48
Back when this line of powders was released, they cost $45. My first Diffused Light Powder lasted me a long time, and I immediately repurchased another one (at $48). Each powder in the range has a different purpose, and this one’s purpose is to diffuse any redness in the skin. My skin looks really good when I wear this over my foundation. A couple of pro’s are that a little goes a long way (hence, it lasted a long time) and I can use this with any foundation. If you are wondering which powder would be right for you, this handy little chart explains the purposes of the six original powders.

Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Mashttps://rstyle.me/+zb2gHrB6P7cFIUfvEbq0Egcara, $26
We all have one favorite mascara, so this wouldn’t be a great round up without at least one mascara recommendation. I could probably recommend more, but we’re sticking to the high end products today. This has seen a repurchase for me 3 or 4 times. As a chronic new-mascara-tryer-outer (that’s a thing, right?), that is a huge for me. This mascara gives me everything I want — dark lashes, volume, length, and definition. Hands down, I will buy this again and again.

Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat in Pillow Talk, $22
This is one of my more recent high end finds that I can’t stop using. I’ve read so many great reviews of the Pilow Talk color, I had to find out for myself if it really is the perfect nude. To be honest, it actually is the perfect nude. I love how it has just the right amount of pink in it. It will look really pretty with a summer tan.
