Award-winning Financial Advisor and Founder of She’s on the Money<\/a> podcast, Victoria Devine<\/a>, has built her career on empowering women to be more financially literate. In her balanced approach to inspiring women on how to best enjoy their hard-earned cash, she proves that you can invest in your future as well as your skin.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Never thought that financial literacy and skincare went hand in hand? Well, let’s dive into how to make the right skinnvestment <\/em>for you.<\/p>\n Since the pandemic began, there has been an absolute boom <\/em>in people taking their skincare routines more seriously.<\/p>\n While good skincare can be expensive and that expense can make us feel guilty, the She\u2019s on the Money<\/a> team is here to remind you that it\u2019s more than okay to indulge in swankier items from time to time<\/strong>, so long as they align with your values and don\u2019t compromise your larger money goals.<\/p>\n In this post, we\u2019re going to tell you exactly why it\u2019s okay to work skincare into your spending priorities, and then we\u2019re going to explain how you can do it in a way that won\u2019t sabotage your savings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Let\u2019s dive in.<\/em><\/p>\n One of the things we talk about again and again at She\u2019s on the Money<\/a> is spending in line with your values. For example, while Person A may love eating out and trying new restaurants, Person B may prefer to spend their money on serums or incredible beauty tech like what FOREO<\/a> offers. This is okay! What\u2019s really important here is to identify where you feel fulfillment in your spending, so you can work it into your budget and ensure you\u2019re not spending money in meaningless ways<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Sometimes on our journeys to financial freedom, it can be easy to forget that money is also a reward for our hard work, and that it\u2019s more than okay to treat ourselves from time to time. The key is treating yourself to those items that truly satisfy you and that fit within your budget<\/strong>, instead of frivolously spending, craving more, and then racking up huge amounts of debt.<\/p>\n The next thing we want to highlight is to factor in cost-per-use when it comes to something like skincare, or whatever your chosen indulgence may be. For example, if you\u2019re eyeing off the $299 FOREO LUNA 3<\/a> or $395 UFO 2<\/a> (aren\u2019t we all?), which seems like a substantial cost to fork out all at once, it\u2019s a good idea to think about how that product could save you money in terms of cost-per-use versus what you would pay for services like facials.<\/p>\n Especially when UFO 2<\/a> is a supercharged facial masking device<\/strong> that offers treatments in under 2 minutes. We\u2019re no mathematicians, but if you\u2019re someone who loves getting a facial once every second month, then that\u2019s around $1,200 you\u2019ll be spending per year on that service. By investing in something like the LUNA 3<\/a> or UFO 2<\/a>, you\u2019ll just spend that initial fee and then you\u2019ll have that product for years to come<\/strong>, which is cheaper than those expensive facials.<\/p>\nIt’s okay to treat yourself to quality skincare<\/strong><\/h2>\n
