Road Test
La Mer is one of those beauty brands which always fascinates. It’s a story which began in the 1950s when the aerospace physicist, Dr. Max Huber, suffered burns in a lab accident and set out to find something to help repair his skin. After 6,000 experiments and 12 years of searching, Dr. Huber came across a fermentation process which transformed sea kelp and other pure ingredients into the “miracle” that would help transform the look of his skin. He called it Crème de la Mer, a skin cream regarded by many as one of the most coveted in the world. Since then, a number of other skincare products have joined the lineup started by that legendary cream, one of which is La Mer The Treatment Lotion. This super hydrator, described by La Mer as akin to "liquid energy", is a fast-absorbing treatment lotion which delivers an instant boost to your complexion to visibly soften, nourish, improve texture and even tone. Key ingredients in the formula include La Mer’s The Softening Waters, made from a unique algae micro gel that is immersed with the energies of Miracle Broth, The Revitalizing Ferment, as well as 73 sea minerals. Using the product is simple. After cleansing, and before your serum of moisturiser, just add a few drops to your fingertips and press into skin. The lotion has virtually no fragrance, and the silky formula, which is like a watery gel, melts into the skin reasonably quickly leaving it soft, smooth and plump. And although it does deliver an instant boost as promised, after using the lotion for a week, just at night, you’ll really notice a number of positive changes to your skin, especially if it is dry and mature. One is improved hydration and a softening of fine lines and wrinkles, but it’s also extremely calming and makes your skin tone look more even. If you travel frequently this wonderful lotion not only comes in a more convenient size to transport, but it also combats a number of issues which can arise with your skin on the road. Put it on your next holiday shopping list under "essentials".
