There’s such a huge variation when it comes to pricing for skincare products. Buy your cosmetics at your local drugstore and you’ll only spend a handful of dollars, whereas if you do your shopping from a premium skincare brand, you’ll end up parting with far more cash.
So, why spend more money on premium skincare when there are cheaper products around? Are these high-end formulas really worth it? In many cases, yes. Keep reading as Venofye explains why!
Useful and Proven Ingredients
The most important part of any skincare product is the ingredients within it. This is something that you should always pay attention to first and foremost. Why? Because this determines how good a product is going to be and how effectively it will be able to produce the results that you’re hoping to see.
This is usually where there’s a huge difference between budget and premium skincare products. Premium skincare tends to contain fewer filler ingredients, which budget products are usually full of. This leaves very little room in those budget formulas for useful ingredients.
On the other hand, premium skincare products are usually packed with useful, proven ingredients. Of course, this isn’t always the case but, most of the time, it’s one of the main reasons why premium skincare products cost more.
Take the Venofye Royal Jelly Bee Luminescent Eye Serum, for example. Take a look at the first 5-10 ingredients on its ingredient list and you’ll see so many names that have been proven by science. Peptides are one, with numerous studies backing up how peptides are able to leave the skin looking smoother and less wrinkles. You’ll also notice sodium hyaluronate, one of the best hydrating ingredients in the industry, along with green tea extract, calendula extract, and several other botanicals.
One ingredient on there that you may not be familiar with is bee venom. It’s our signature ingredient at Venofye – you’ll find it in all of our products. Again, research shows how beneficial this ingredient can be, particularly when it comes to smoothing away the look of wrinkles and giving the skin some extra antioxidants. It’s an ingredient that you won’t find in budget skincare products!
Unique and Advanced Formulations
Compare the ingredient lists of a few different budget skincare products and you’ll likely notice several similarities. Often, those products, which tend to be produced by large companies/manufacturers, take standard formulas and only tweak them slightly in a couple of ways to make them their own. They’re not very unique and, as such, you won’t see such a big difference using one product over another.
With premium skincare products, however, unique formulations are everything. After all, no one is going to pay more money for a skincare product if an identical formula is available at a fraction of the price.
Premium skincare products tend to be formulated in a way that enables them to easily stand out from the competition, just like the Serpent Thermatox Mask from the Venofye Serpent Thermatox Collection. This is a clay mask, of which you’ll find many budget formulas available. What makes this mask unique is how it has been concocted. In addition to kaolin, which many clay masks contain, this one has also been formulated with thermal catalysts. These cause the mask to heat up when it’s being applied to the skin. This leaves the pores feeling more relaxed and permeable, allowing the clay to work effectively.
With that said, there’s even more to this mask than that. Like all other Venofye products, this one is also brimming with powerful and proven ingredients. In this formula, you’ll find vitamins A, C, and E, along with extracts from coffee seed, sweet almond, aloe vera, lemon, and more!
Constant Innovation and Research
Budget skincare brands often don’t prioritize research and innovation. Their formulas stay the same for years. Sure, they might be tweaked a little over time but, in essence, those bog-standard products don’t usually contribute to pushing the boundaries of the industry.
With premium skincare brands, however, boundary-pushing is often an aim. Premium brands are always seeking out ways in which they can take their formulations to the next level. This is something else that makes those high-end products different. It helps to justify their price tags too since research and innovation don’t come cheap!
At Venofye, being innovative is hugely important to us. We want to offer products that you won’t find elsewhere and, so far, we’ve been able to stick to that goal! Over the years, we’ve released a number of different collections. Each one harnesses the latest research and brings together all of our experience and innovative ideas, ensuring that our brand and products stay relevant.
The Blossom Bee Advanced Wrinkle Corrector, which is one of our newer products, is a great example. There are so many lower-end skincare products out there that promise to instantly banish the appearance of wrinkles. However, if you’ve tried any of them, you’ll probably be aware of the disappointment that follows after you realize that those formulas don’t actually deliver on their promises.
With our Blossom Bee Advanced Wrinkle Corrector, results can be seen in seconds. We’ve done our research and have formulated this solution to include a blend of innovative high-performance ingredients. Sure, it costs more than the budget alternatives but, on the flip side, you’ll actually be able to see a big difference in your complexion after using it!
Skincare Becomes an Experience
Some people find skincare to be quite tedious. They do it because they have to, not because they enjoy the process of carrying out their skincare routines. These feelings are exacerbated when using budget skincare products. Sure, some of those products may feel quite nice when applied to the skin but they won’t take your breath away in the way that some premium products can.
Many premium skincare brands strive to make skincare an enticing experience. Not only do these products contain high-end ingredients but they also feel more luxurious and decadent when applied to the skin. This makes skincare a much more enjoyable experience. As a result, you’ll likely be stricter when it comes to following your skincare routine. You won’t want to skip a day because you’ll genuinely love applying your skincare products.
At Venofye, all of our formulas feel absolutely exquisite when applied to the skin. Our moisturizers, such as the Apitoxin Collagen Cream, feel like silk and melt into the skin beautifully. Our serums, like the Iron Bee Boosting Serum, are the same. Even though serums are very lightweight formulas, you’ll immediately feel refreshed and revitalized after applying our products to your skin. Premium skincare can elevate the self-care aspect of your routine in a way that budget products often fail to do.
Sustainability Costs Money
Sustainability is becoming increasingly important to consumers, and rightly so. More and more people are becoming aware of how their purchasing decisions are impacting the environment and are taking steps to reduce this impact as much as possible.
Sadly, skincare is often deemed as quite a wasteful industry. This is particularly the case when it comes to packaging. The beauty industry is responsible for producing 120 billion tons of packaging waste each year, most of which ends up in landfills.
Why is so much of the beauty packaging out there unable to be recycled? Because producing recyclable packaging that holds up in transit and is able to keep the product within safe costs money. It’s much cheaper and faster to opt for plastics and other materials that can’t easily or fully be recycled. When a brand is charging budget prices for its products, sustainable packaging isn’t a cost that it can handle.
Fortunately, sustainability is easier to find among premium skincare brands. Sure, you’ll end up paying more but you’ll also be able to shop guilt-free when it comes to your environmental impact. At Venofye, our products come in recyclable packaging. The packaging that we use is still sturdy, strong, and capable of holding up to rough transit conditions but, at the same time, you’ll be able to recycle all of those components rather than adding to landfills.
Product Reviews Will Tell You More
So far, we’ve made quite a few generalizations when it comes to premium skincare products. Going by what we’ve said, it would be easy to assume that all premium products contain innovative and proven ingredients and consist of high-performance formulas that always deliver results.
Unfortunately, this isn’t the case. Just like with every industry, you get the good and the bad. Not all premium brands adhere to the above. Some produce budget formulas but still stick a high price tag on them, meaning that they aren’t actually premium products in the slightest.
This is where product reviews can be extremely helpful. They’ll tell you so much about how a product works in various real-life situations. They’ll give you information that’s often better, more useful, and more reliable than what you’ll find on an official product page. This is why, before splurging on premium skincare, it’s worth having a read through a few product reviews.
With Venofye products, reviews are easy to find. You’ll notice them on each product page while this link rounds up various reviews from the web and social media. Finding out more about a product before purchasing it will make you feel much more confident in your choices!
Premium Skincare Products From Venofye
There’s no denying that in some cases, premium skincare products aren’t always better than budget formulas. However, the majority of the time, those premium products will often offer ingredients and advanced ideas that budget brands can’t compete with. This is how premium products are able to produce such noticeable changes in the complexion, improving it for the better rather than simply maintaining an average standard.
