Small luxuries

The line between luxury & necessity tends to get a bit blurred when you're on a forum whose average member drops about $1500 for a pair of shoes (give or take $500, LoL), but I think this one qualifies:
Eudermine. Shiseido's oldest product, dating back to 1897. It's essentially a glorified toner, ridiculously over-priced, and totally irresistible. Even the bottle is amazing. People usually think it's a perfume – not something you saturate a cotton ball with and rub over your face.

what a great topic; my day is stuffed with small luxuries that make life easier and more enjoyable.
I’d like to throw my pen in here:
the Muji gel pen.
it’s small, sells for 1£ cheap and does it’s job everyday. friends told me stories about their pens leaking, scratching, whatever — though mine never did.
I have several other pens, also a few quite expensive ones, but this is my favourite.
ed: what I completely forgot to say: after all, it’s also quite beautiful.

radio-aktivität – I might call that a small practicality. Especially for that small of a price. I love a good gel pen, though; the worst are those fine-point ballpoints that rip through the paper you're writing on.
Raw – Every food I like that's considered "specialty" somehow gets rationalized by my brain as a necessity. There is very little guilt this way, especially with ice cream..

Haha, good call after all, I guess. Thanks, interest1. But, seriously, that tooth paste, yum!Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

Orange Blossom-, Rose- and Lavendar-Water.
I spray it everywhere: Onto my bedsheets, my towels, my curtains, bathwater, as a body tub, face, hair, tea...you name it.
Also the Sultane de Saba body scrubs: Way overpriced but they smell soooo good.lavender menace

@Dane – I almost bought the pitcher the other day. The one with the black 'bobble' (naturally) caught my eye. I hate liquids in plastic, though, so I put it back. Not that anyone would want to carry a glass bottle around in their bag.

Urbanears Medis earbuds
$55 bucks, best sound of any earbud I've encountered after burning through various pairs of Bose, Schur, etc, mostly to the tune of $200 a pair and up
best thing is the cloth binding seems to prolong the life of the wiring
It's absolutely Hedious!
