Cover Discover your skin's potential with La Mer's beloved moisturisers

A guide to La Mer's bestselling moisturisers, including Crème de la Mer and The Moisturizing Soft Cream

One of the most reliable skincare brands in the world, La Mer has never faltered in its mission to deliver effective, high-quality beauty solutions for every skin type since its conception in 1994. At the heart of its success is its signature Miracle Broth, discovered and perfected over countless experiments and trials over 12 years by La Mer founder Dr Max Huber. 

Fermented for four months, the Miracle Broth harnesses the potency of giant sea kelp, vitamins, minerals and other pure ingredients, and enhances it with light and sound energies to create the cell-renewing elixir that can be found in all of La Mer's beloved products. It is the main ingredient in its moisturisers, combined with ultra-soothing antioxidant lime tea, to give the face a healing and hydrating boost.

Offering a luxury of choice with five different textures, La Mer's range of moisturisers—the original Crème de la Mer, The Moisturizing Soft Cream, The Moisturizing Soft Lotion, The Moisturizing Cool Gel Cream and The Moisturizing Matte Lotion—caters to all skin types, situations and preferences. 

Want to find out which moisturiser you should pick to start your La Mer journey to smooth, supple skin? Here's an easy guide: 

Crème de la Mer

Tatler Asia

This ultra-rich cream is La Mer's first creation, dubbed 'the moisturiser that started it all'. It is ideal for drier skin or those travelling to colder, drier climates. Many also incorporate the Crème de la Mer into their evening beauty routine, swapping out moisturisers with lighter textures for a richer, more luxurious experience to relax and unwind at the end of the day. 

To unlock the 's rejuvenating ingredients stored using the brand's Liquid Crystal technology, one must follow The Ritual: warming the moisturising between the fingertips until translucent and pressing gently onto the face to seal in the moisture.
