The Most Expensive Facials in the World
Facials are a relaxing yet effective way to get glowing skin, but you'll never believe the cost of the world's most luxurious options.
If your idea of a dream weekend involves an elegant spa and some much-deserved pampering, you'll love reading about the most luxurious facials in the world. A facial's cost varies depending on the services involved and the products used. The average price in America is $63, but it escalates to the thousands when lasers are involved, or for high-tech procedures like vampire facials.
While a basic experience involves steps like cleansing, steaming, exfoliating, and extraction, many high-end places go above and beyond these procedures. From snake venom to gold, diamonds, and rubies, there are many high-end ways to improve the appearance of your skin— for the right price.

The gold helps boost radiance and fight wrinkles. Next, you'll unwind in a soothing milk and rose oil bath, followed by an argan oil massage before finishing your experience with a champagne and caviar lunch.
HD Diamond and Ruby Facial from Scott-Vincent Borba: $7,000
Aesthetician Scott-Vincent Borba, also the founder of e.l.f Cosmetics, offers his private celebrity clients a diamond and ruby facial. According to Borba, the rubies act as an antioxidant while diamonds add sheen and luster to the skin. During the process, clients suck on ice cubes, to reduce puffiness while precious gems are applied to the face, neck, arms, hands, and décolleté. Borba also uses a paraffin silk fiber mask during the facial procedure.
