A Morning At La Mer


As a birthday treat, Creme De La Mer invited me to a complimentary hand and arm massage using their products. Being a huge La Mer fan I jumped at the opportunity to be pampered for the morning.

When I first arrived I was greater by a lovely glass of champagne (which went down surprisingly well at 11am). I had an hour long hand massage with a variety of products and a discussion about which products would be useful to had to my regime with my upcoming wedding. 

Champagne and La Mer


La Mer are actually part of the Estee Lauder group and have a really interesting background. 

There 'Miracle Broth' was created when physicist Dr Max Huber suffered burns in a lab accident. He then spent 12 years developing a cream to help his horrible burns. This 'Miracle Broth' is now at the heart of all of the Creme De La Mer products. 

The range has numerous skin care treatments such as moisturisers, toners, cleansers, eye creams and so on. The range also includes foundations. 

Some of the beautiful products


Dr Huber focused his experiments around sea kelp as it has endless ability to regenerate itself, its nourishing properties and the powerful war it retained moisture.(http://www.cremedelamer.co.uk/miracle-broth)

Sea Kelp is a key ingredient in La Mer

One of my favourite products that was used when I was having my massage was the below body refiner. This stuff is so pretty. It is a scrub that leaves you looking with something from Twilight. It leaves little specs of diamond dust on your skin that make you look and feel so pretty. 

The Body Refiner. Price £80 for 200ml

I am getting married next year and am looking at improving my practically none existent skin routine. Below is one of the products that was recommended for my skin care regime. This lotion dries moisture into the skin to improve visible texture and even the appearance of skin tone. You apply this before your moisturiser and it helps your skin to absorb your product. Apparently applying this first means you will go through less moisturiser as your skin will be fully prepped.

The Treatment Lotion. Price £85 for 150ml
The next treatment that was recommended for my wedding skin prep was the Intensive Revitalizing Mask. This product was on the Glamour Beauty Power List 2014 and is a refreshing cream mask which energises, plumps and protects which makes your skin look lovely and youthful. The instructions say to leave this on for 8 minutes when wipe it away with tissue, however you can also just leave this on all day. 

The Intensive Revitalizing Mask. Price £105 for 75ml

Beautiful products


I had such a wonderful time trying loads of new Creme De La Mer products. The only issue is...which ones should I buy now?

I have a LONG shopping list
