A 101 GUIDE TO LA MER

two la mer products: creme de la mer and le concentrate surrounded by glass vases

The {La Mer} story began with aerospace physicist, Dr Max Huber, who was researching ingredients and products to heal wounds and burns incurred during a lab experiment gone wrong. Through this research, he discovered the regenerating potential of local sea kelp and other pure ingredients from the ocean. Now formulated with this magical sea kelp, the Miracle Broth he created is incorporated into all La Mer products.

So, what exactly is La Mer’s famous Miracle Broth? This regenerating elixir is the formula that started everything. Miracle Broth’s central ingredient is the natural sea kelp found on the stunning Pacific Coast, which stores the sun and sea’s richest nutrients. The kelp is sustainably hand-harvested and precisely fermented to intensify its self-generating elements and natural antioxidants, creating the Miracle Broth elixir that forms the base of every La Mer product.

{Crème Da Le Mer} is the product that launched La Mer into the beauty world and evolved the way that people feel about luxury skin care. La Mer also formulates cleansers, moisturisers, serums, treatments and make up, focusing on using the Miracle Broth to make a real difference to the way your skin looks and feels.

WHAT IS IN CRÈME DE LA MER?

{Crème De La Mer} is one of the brand’s most iconic skin care products and is rich in active ingredients and formulas to ensure the best possible results. Of course, you’ll find the brand’s Miracle Broth, a combination of nutrient-rich sea kelp and other natural ingredients, infused with energies of light and sound to intensify its potency. You’ll also find Lime Tea Extract that works to protect the skin alongside an innovative Liquid Crystal Technology that ensures the product penetrated deep into the skin’s surface for optimal benefits.

 

HOW TO USE LA MER CREAM

Use the La Mer cream precisely to ensure you receive the full benefits of this iconic daily moisturiser. Take a small amount of cream from your pot using the integrated spatula and warm between your fingertips until the cream becomes translucent, which activates the Miracle Broth within. Gently press the formula into your face and neck until fully absorbed.

 

HOW TO USE LA MER CONCENTRATE

The La Mer Concentrate should be applied as your serum step in your skin care routine. Using the wand, apply a small amount of product onto your fingertips and pat gently onto the face and neck. Once you’ve dispersed the concentrate, massage into the skin until fully absorbed. We’d recommend using this twice daily or as often as you feel your skin needs it for the best results.

 

HOW TO APPLY LA MER EYE CREAM

When using a La Mer eye product, start with clean skin and gently use the applicator to apply a small amount of product to the eye area. Gently pat and press the product into the skin and leave to absorb fully, following it with your La Mer treatment products.

 

WHICH LA MER PRODUCT IS BEST?

It always depends on your skin type and specific skin concerns when deciding which product will be the best for your skin. {Crème De La Mer} is La Mer’s most iconic and best-selling product, making it a perfect choice when starting to integrate this luxury brand into your skin care routine.
