Creme de la Mer : The Gel Cream

Wow it has been a long time since I wrote a post! Happy New Year (even though it is almost the end of January)

So to kick start the New Year, I want to talk about Creme de la Mer. I had been considering getting this stuff for ages, and in October I decided to go for it.

I went to the counter in Harvey Nichols and was pampered and spoiled for choice! I decided on The Moisturizing Gel Cream over the traditional face cream.

I decided to do this because I wanted something that would be light on my skin, and not oily (even though the other creams are not oily at all) I really liked the texture, more like a serum that a face cream, and found it went over my skin so nicely!

The container this comes in is exactly the same as the normal face cream, so if you are considering this, make sure you pick up the right one, although I am sure you will not be disappointed with any of the products from the range.

Price wise, it is pretty steep. A 30ml tub of this is £105. But I got mine back in October, and I use it every morning, and I'm still going strong! (about 50% down)

Is it worth the cost? I have been really happy with this. I find that as soon as I put it on, my pores look reduced in size and my skin has a more even feel.

Would I buy this again? YES. I think it is perfect for summer or people with really oily skin. I think that even though my skin is quite oily, it could still do with a little tiny bit more moisture in the winter months. So I think over the winter, stick with the original cream, and change over to this as the sun starts shining :)
