15 Luxury Beauty Brands I Didn’t Know I Could Get on Amazon

Great beauty does not have to be expensive, but it’s fun to indulge yourself with fancy products every once in a while. These days, splurging on high-performing beauty has never been easier, thanks to Amazon. Call me naïve (and really, working in beauty, I should have known better!), but I had no idea so many luxury brands were available on Amazon, often with Prime’s guaranteed two-day shipping and sold directly from the brands themselves.

Now, in the same package as toilet paper, my daughters’ Pull-Ups and my husband’s razors, I sometimes like to throw in skin care, hair care and makeup from brands like Dr. Barbara Sturm, U Beauty, SkinMedica or Clé de Peau Beauté. Keep reading for 15 luxe brands you can find on Amazon—and a product from each that we think you deserve to treat yourself with, from science-backed anti-aging serums to 24-karat gold face masks.

Oribe Gold Lust Nourishing Hair Oil
($42)

Celebrity hairstylist Johnny Lavoy previously told NewBeauty that Oribe’s Gold Lust Nourishing Hair Oil is especially great for thick hair. “This oil is lightweight but quickly penetrating which is actually good for thick hair. Thick hair usually gets a lot of heat because of styling, so heat protection is important. It will also speed up dry time,” he says. Plus, it “works great for detangling and adding shine.”

Is this face oil an investment? Absolutely. But we’ll wager to say a worthy one when you experience how satiny-smooth it makes your skin.

U Beauty Resurfacing Compound Serum ($148)

If you’re looking for that one does-it-all skin care product, this is it. Thanks to U Beauty’s SIREN Capsules technology, its formula releases highly active ingredients (retinol, stabilized vitamins C and E, glycolic acid, mandelic acid, hyaluronic acid, glutathione, aloe and witch hazel) in only the damaged areas of skin that need repair, rather than all over where they might negatively impact healthy tissue. When reviewing its launch, our editor called it “glass skin in a bottle.”

Fine and thinner hair types need moisture, but so many formulas end up just weighing strands down into a limp and lifeless mess. With Sachajuan’s Ocean Silk Technology, you get all the extra moisture, body and shine without the heaviness.
