I have visited the land of high-end skin care products and I want a revolution *now*.

A $700 Value

AIEEE! Oh god, ok, no. Apparently my addiction is to some other category of skin care products, where $35 is splurging.

Edit: because $35 for a product IS SPLURGING EVEN FOR RICH PEOPLE OMG WTF is wrong with those Nieman Marcus shoppers!

I saw the list price for the above item in a magazine and thought it was a typo.

I do not believe there can be anything in those little jars that is actually worth $700. You could convince me, but I would want to see a LOT of data.

I like Lush sometimes. But apparently it's not even in the same universe as some of the stuff I've been seeing recently. Certainly not the same decimal point!

maybe the super high end stuff has always been there and we haven't noticed? I mean, I always thought that tea came in tea bags....little did I know the delights of loose leaf!

I'm sure as a general category it's been there for a while, although I think the astronomical price tags are also indicative of that widening income gap I keep hearing so much about.

I hear that.....when the talking heads say things like "middle class" I ask, where?

How do we break into that market? If I get furloughed, I'll need a new job.
