The pursuit of beauty has always inspired extravagance in the world. While Mary, Queen of Scots, used to bathe in white wine, Cleopatra covered her face in pure gold before going to sleep. From a nail polish worth ₹7 crore to a regeneration that inspired conspiracy theories on social media—here are some of the most luxurious beauty products and treatments in the market.
White Diamond Manicure
Created by luxury brand AZATURE, the nail polish feautures crushed white diamonds worth ₹7 crore. In 2012, British singer Kelly Osbourne stirred controversy after donning AZATURE’s black diamond nail polish, which costs over ₹1 crore. This nail polish, however, has been outdone by its higher variant. Osbourne later clarified that all proceeds generated from selling the ₹7 crore bottle would go towards two causes close to her heart—The Sharon Osbourne Colon Cancer Foundation and Race to Erase MS. azature.com
OROGOLD 24K Cleopatra Nano Regimen
Inspired by Cleopatra’s infamous beauty regime that included the use of gold, this cream and the accompanying sheets contain 24 carat gold. It has three other ingredients that help reduce wrinkles and lines. After cleaning the face, the silk cream is applied. Next, three gold sheets are left on the skin for 20 minutes. The last step is applying the Nano serum on top of these sheets. This beauty regimen is believed to provide intense hydration to the skin. The nutrients and essential oils are said to leave the skin radiant and glowing. The treatment costs approximately ₹5.72 lakh. orogoldcosmetics.com
