In doing my research for the most expensive and luxurious skin creams, I came across an article on Forbes.com all about Ultra-Pricey Cosmetics. Some are ones I have already covered here in my luxury skin care features.

They feature the following products with nice little descriptions and pictures:
La Mer Essence
$2,100 for 1.5 oz
RéVive Peau Magnifique Youth Recruit
$1500 for 0.03 fl oz
La Prairie Skin Caviar Luxe Cream
$650 for 3.4 oz
Crème de La Mer Miracle Broth
$1,200 for 16 oz
La Prairie Cellular Radiance Concentrate Pure Gold
$525 for 1 oz
Sisleÿa Elixir
$435 for .7 oz
Sisleÿa Daily Line Reducer
$405 for 1 oz
Elemis Pro-Collagen Wrinkle Smooth
$339 for .5 oz
SK-II Ultimate Revival Cream
$300 for 1.7 oz
Darphin Stimulskin Plus Rejuvenating Lifting Serum
$295 for 1 oz

Seriously, if money were no object, would you spend $1500 for 1/3 ounce of product?erhaps if you were one that believes in miracles!

A Miracle Cream at What Cost.

Teri Cosenzi — Mon, 21 May 2007 11:39:00 +0000

I have used moisturizing creams that have cost as very little as $1, to the ultimate in Luxury, La Creme from Cleau de Peau Beaute at $700 for 2 oz. .

Now, I will tell you that the cream I purchased for $1 was awful, and that the luxurious La Creme was amazing. La Creme did wonders for my skin, but not enough for me to keep using at such an extreme price. Maybe my expectations were too high.

I hear about so many that swear by Creme de La Mer that retails for around $100 for 1 oz. I haven’t had the chance to try anything from La Mer yet, and wonder if the “wondrous miracles” it professes ring true.

My miracle cream of the moment is StriVectin-SD. StriVectin-SD retails for $135 of a 6 oz. tube, which seems more reasonable than most of the other luxurious creams. And it is certainly not marketed as a luxurious cream. Just a miracle cream.

Do you have a miracle cream that you swear by? And how much would you pay for your ultimate miracle cream.
