description

The moisturizer that started it all. With a heart of cell-renewing Miracle Broth™ and antioxidant Lime Tea, this ultra-rich cream delivers healing moisture, daily protection, and energized natural repair. At first touch, sensitivities look soothed. Dryness disappears. And, with daily devotion, skin feels firmer, lines and wrinkles are visibly diminished, and a more uplifted, rejuvenated look emerges.

I am not going to go ecstatic like the media has for years and years over this cream, but I like it enough to keep buying it despite the exorbitant cost. I know I will get super soft skin from it,...

Overrated, overhyped and overpriced. Buy yourself a tub of Nivea and you'll have a product that's 99% similar for a fraction of the cost. What does sea algae really do for the skin? Is there...

I feel this product is overrated. First of all, I believe it is too heavy, made my 54 year old skin breakout, did not make my skin smooth at all, really expensive, and most of all, I can't stand...

this product is the only one my skin loves. I have very reactive, acne-prone skin. I can find moisturizers that hydrate my skin, but they normally clog my pores, cause irritation, or acne. La Mer...

The product smell soft& pure, not much of chemicals. Really pricey product & not working so well except for it hydration. The cream is thick& not easy to spread on. Not suitable for oily skin.
