Many wonder why the cost of professional skincare products is higher than skincare items you can get at your local store, and perhaps if any particular skincare product is actually worth the splurge. You may also be wondering why certain products we carry are more expensive than others. Both are great questions, and we’re happy to explain why there are some must-have skincare products that are worth the splurge!

The main difference is that the professional products we carry are pharmaceutical-grade products. The reason this is important is because the skincare products you might pickup at Sephora or really any drugstore are only sitting on the surface of your skin. While your skin might feel good after using your products, they are not penetrating deep into your skin to actually resolve your skin concerns. Pharmaceutical-grade products have higher quality and higher concentrations of ingredients that are designed with patented technology to give the greatest results.

Skin health is also a part of your overall health. Just as you choose to put high quality, organic food in your body, you also want to use high quality products to promote the health of your skin. We all live in a world filled with free radicals, pollution, sunlight, poor lifestyle choices, and stress. The body’s largest organ is the skin; it is crucial to protect the organ that protects the entirety of your body. This is what we like to call an investment in your skin or “skinvestment”!

Now that we have discussed the importance and science behind high quality products, we want to tell you about some products that are worth splurging on!

First up on the list is our fan favorite – Beta Gel! Beta Gel from DMK is a serum containing beta-glucan. It is super hydrating, so throw away your hyaluronic acid! This healing serum is perfect for anyone who has skin! If you ask anyone who uses it, you will understand why this product is in such high demand.

Another product that you should absolutely incorporate into your routine is the Skinbetter Science Alpharet Overnight Cream. This product is your number one go-to for lines, wrinkles, uneven tone, and texture! Alpharet uses retinol and lactic acid to give you anti aging benefits without the irritation. Did you know that your cellular turnover declines after 25? This means that the sooner you target the aging process, the more benefits you will see in the long run.

The final product we wanted to feature is the SkinBetter Science Alto Defense Serum. This product is going to be your antioxidant in your routine; an antioxidant is crucial to your skincare routine because it creates a defense shield against oxidative stress caused by UV rays, blue light, and pollution. Think of this as the SPF within your skin! Alto has Vitamin C, E, and 17 other antioxidants so it is going to do wonders on anyone’s skin!

All of our products at Allure are great with guaranteed results! These are just a few of our favorites that should be staples in your routine just as they are in ours. If you have any questions about these products (or any others), stop on by and we would love to chat more!
