La Mer Creme de La Mer

When I was 40 I had no wrinkles and looked young, but had a dry patch that on my forehead between my eyes...I tried every product on the market and even went to a dermatologist. Nothing worked. I was shopping and there was someone giving away La Mer samples and told me it would work. (didn't know then how much it cost). Within a week the dryness was gone. When I went to purchase it and saw the price I ran away. A week later, the dryness was back. I started using it every morning 11 years ago (I'm 51 now ) an I still have NO wrinkles and people always think I'm in my 30's. My sister is about my age and has tons of wrinkles. It may cost a ...  Read the complete review

Popping into Harrods for a loaf of bread the other day (as you do) I decided to have a little look at the cosmetics counters. I was drawn to a certain face cream which was snip at £73 for a 30ml jar, the promises of eternal youth and wonderful skin was enough. I got some. If it's good enough for Madonna it's good enough for me, J-Lo uses it too but it's definitely TOO good for her! The formulation of Creme de la Mer is a complicated one. Every batch takes three to four months to make and includes a process called 'Sonic Chemistry' which is *ahem* taking sound waves and wiring them into the cream as it's fermenting. It's made from ...  Read the complete review

First the details: I am 31yrs old, started using skincare products when I was 19.Have tried almost All the available brands on the market. My Skin: Is oily and prone to adult acne break outs. I am always trying to find the right cleanser and moisturiser combo, as I know oily skin is often made worse by not using the correct moisturizer. The beginning of this year my skin changed from all over oily, to extremely dry (and Flaky) spots and a Very oily T-Zone. My doctor said this could be because of the medications I started taking due to an illness. I was horrified, I am getting married in 4 weeks time and my skin was totally out of ...  Read the complete review

I cant actually remember how & why I ended up using this product, however it is now my staple moisturiser. Ive been using creme de lar mer now for a good few years and until last December there were occasions when it ran out & I had to resort to a fill in moisturiser. During this period i always noticed my skin becoming much dryer and sadly I think i look older! Creme de la mer is a very thick cream which reminds me a bit of cold cream that was used many years ago, it kind of smells a bit like that as well! From the minute you use it (& you really only need a tiny amount ie finger nail size) you can feel it pumping up your skin with ...  Read the complete review

Ok.......to set the record striaght from the start, I am a guy!!! However, I still have skin and just like all you ladies out there, I would like to stay young and healthy looking. I will tell all about creme de la mer, but first I would like to explain to you all how I arrived there. Actually my obcession started when I was much younger and had spots. Like many teenagers, Clearasil was my first line of choice. At the age of 17, someone kindly informed me that most spots are caused by bacteria transferred from fingers to the skin on your face. So, I stopped touching my face after that except to wash it, and Voila, slightly clearer skin. At ...  Read the complete review
