Affordable Luxuries

Spa-like products to pamper without the price tag

From the LifeMinute team

You don't have to hit the spa or splurge on pricey products to get a quality treatment and look fabulous. OK! Magazine's Style Director Pandora Amoratis introduces some luxurious beauty buys that won't break the bank.

"I find a cold cream is one of the most luxurious beauty products to cleanse your skin," says the style guru. If you're new to this beauty secret it's as easy as applying a thin layer over your face and wiping it off with a warm washcloth. Pandora's pick to do the trick is Ponds Cold Cream Cleanser. "It's my favorite because unlike ordinary cleansers it's made with 50% moisturizer so it deep cleans, it removes dirt and makeup while pampering the skin and infusing it with vital moisture leaving it soft and radiant," she says. This gem trusted by generations of women is less than $10 at drugstores.

You don't have to visit your salon to get your hair in check. Pandora is super excited about a newly launched premium line of care and styling products called the Wella Professional Luxe Oil Collection. The line includes shampoo, a restore mask, leave-in conditioning spray, an oil elixir and a light oil protection spray all offering a lightweight solution to transform the texture of hair, giving it three times more keratin protection. "The fusion of keratin plus luxurious oils like argon, almond, and jojoba really nourish, hydrate and transform the hair from the inside out to leave hair looking, feeling, and smelling fantastic," she says. You can find all the products at Wella salons or online at wella.com.

Cancel your next appointment because Completely Bare, New York's #1 hair removal spot has come out with their own full line of at-home waxing products. "They're innovative, easy to use and they make it possible to have that spa-like quality experience in the comfort and the privacy of your own home," Pandora says. The wax kit, on-the-go travel kit, hair minimizers and numbing sprays are all less than $10 at CVS, Ulta and at perfumemania.com.
