LA MER THE MOISTURIZING COOL GEL CREAM REVIEW

Hi everyone,

It's been a long holiday and I haven't been writing since maybe 3 weeks. So now I'm back with a new skin care review. Here's La Mer The Moisturizing Cool Gel Cream. The most expensive moisturizer I've ever tried. 😍😍😍



Last month, I attended La Mer beauty event at Galaxy Mall. They launched the newest moisturizer that suitable for all skin type. During the event, I had a chance to try a hand massage treatment and they gave a sample size of La Mer The Moisturizing Cool Gel Cream (3.5 ml) as a welcome gift.

I was really excited because I know that La Mer is a really expensive and popular high end brand from UK which claimed to be perfect for anti aging. Many hollywood celebrity use this brand and I was curious what made this brand so expensive and how good it works on the skin. So now, all those curiousity is finally answered. 😍😍😍

Before I start talking about the product, here's the story behind La Mer.

La Mer’s journey began when Dr. Max Huber suffered burns in an experiment gone awry and set out to create his own destiny. Physicist by day, stargazer and dreamer by night, he hoped to unlock the healing power of the sea he held so dear.

Inspired by the oceanic world, Huber fermented nutrient-rich sea kelp with other natural ingredients. 12 years and 6,000 experiments later, Crème de la Mer was born – and Huber’s skin visibly restored.

That's all the story.

Here I got a sample size La Mer The Moisturizing Cool Gel cream that comes in a green box. They wrote all the information about this product on it. I couldn't understand what was written on the packaging box since they used france and maybe russian language (I'm not sure).









I tried to google about this product and here's what I got from the website.

La Mer The Moisturizing Cool Gel Cream.
This cooling gel delivers soothing moisture for a refreshed feel. Skin looks naturally vibrant, restored to its healthiest center. Miracle Broth™ – the legendary healing elixir that flows through all of La Mer – infuses skin with sea-sourced renewing energies. Ideal for combination / oilier skin.

Inside the box, there's a small white plastic jar contain 3.5 ml gel cream and it's just exactly the same shape, colour and design as the full size one that contains 80 ml.







Just like the name, this moisturizer has a quite thick gel texture in broken white color. And it has a light powdery scent that will soon gone after application.





The texture is light weight and easy to spread, easy to absorbed and doesn't leave sticky feeling. And you can see an instant glow right after application. Here's how the texture looks after applied.







I've been using this cream for a week and I only use very little since it's soooo expensive. I just don't want to waste it. Here I will show how it looks on my face before and after using this gel cream right away.



At the comparison pic above, you can see my skin looks more glowing after applying the gel cream. And this cream glides smoothly and directly absorbed into my skin. It doesn't feel heavy at all. 

Based on my experience using this gel cream, here's my pros and cons.

Pros :
~ very lightweight
~ easy to absorb
~ doesn't break me out
~ gives an instant glowing to my skin
~ has a nice and light powdery scent
~ makes your foundie looks better
~ firms my skin

Cons :
~ super pricey

Overall, I rate this 4.5 out of 5. ❤❤❤❤💕

So here's my conclusion about this product. This gel cream has a power to work like my usual essence, serum and moisturizer all in one. The result that I feel  after using this cream alone is the same as if I use my daily skin care routine. Plus it gives glowing effect.

However, the price of my daily skin care routine is less than half the price of this fullsize La mer gel cream. So considering my earn each month, I still choose to go on with my daily skin care routine. But I will give this cream 5 thumbs up and I'm so grateful to have a chance to try this super high end product.

If you ask me whether this cream is worth to buy, I will say yes if you have no budget for your skin care. But if you are on a budget like me, there are still many skin care choice with reasonable price that you can combine to achieve the similar result.

So that's all my experience trying this product. And I would like to say thank you to La Mer for having me and letting me try one of theor best selling product. Also thanks to everyone who read my blog.

Feel free to leave a comment below or reach me through my social media if you have question or anything about this product. I will reply ASAP.
Have a nice day and stay awesome!!!
