“As long as a woman can look ten years younger than her daughter, she is perfectly satisfied.” –Oscar Wilde
THE TRICK
Whether you are dedicated to a skincare regime, or, you are a face cream novice, the La Mer Holiday Collections are this Beauty Editor’s choice to pamper and nurture skin not only this Winter, but all year round.
Dull, uneven skin: For those new to La Mer products, The Radiance Collection combines three of the most coveted creams and treatments in introductory sizes. Crème de la Mer, The Radiant Serum, and The Eye Balm Intense, all work together to leave you with an even-toned, bright complexion.
Dry, fatigued skin: The Rescue Collection is a carefully curated selection of treatments to help visibly repair fragile and tired faces. This includes Crème de la Mer, The Concentrate (my personal favorite), The Eye Concentrate, and The Lip Balm.
Delicate, mature skin: The Ageless Collection provides the lifelong, skincare connoisseur with mini indulgent pleasures in the form of Crème de la Mer, The Regenerating Serum, The Lifting Intensifier, and The Eye Concentrate to further firm and smooth a mature epidermis.
The addict: For the zealous La Mer devotee, the iconic 500ml Crème de la Mer is available in a chic, limited edition case.
THE TIP
Correct application of your chosen face cream will affect how much your skin benefits from the active ingredients. Far too many of us rub the cream into our palms first; this is a waste of the product. Always be sure of the quality of your skincare treatments and use them sparingly; as with treatments, quality supersedes quantity. To obtain full advantages, take a small amount between your fingers and dot directly on your face, starting at the center and massaging upwards and outwards. Some products, like the original Crème de la Mer, need to be warmed gently with the fingertips prior to application to activate the ingredients.
