If you’re a skincare enthusiast, you know that Augustinus Bader is in the upper echelon of beauty brands. Usually, you can only find the iconic royal blue and gold jars and canisters in the back of Sephora, where the high-end products are, or in a major department store. That’s because their products, like the world-renowned The Rich Cream, are like the Mercedes-Benz of skincare and come with that luxury price tag. Or so we thought…
Believe it or not, there are quite a few Augustinus Bader products that cost well under $50. If you know the brand, you know that’s actually a very affordable price point (and honestly, a really good one for any premium skincare product in general). And — we know what you’re thinking — no, it’s not just a random beauty tool you’ll find for that price (although they have a wooden neem comb that’s just $33). But seriously, after doom scrolling on their site, we came across coveted products like The Cream Cleansing Gel or The Essence to create a luxurious facial routine and their haircare products for $40 or less. Since Augustinus Bader is so expensive (their go-to moisturizer starts at $98), these under $50 finds are actual gems, mainly because they actually work so well.
