I went along to the rather glamorous Estée Lauder building last Thursday to learn about new developments with luxury skincare brand, Crème de la Mer.
Over a glass of champagne (lovely) I learnt all about the different products. Most people are familiar with the brand’s popular Moisturizing Crème but if, like me, you think a cream of this type is better suited to more mature skins, there are plenty of alternatives. The Oil Absorbing Lotion, Moisturizing Lotion and Moisturizing Gel Cream are lighter and quicker to apply but all contain the ‘miracle’ formula in the original Moisturizing Crème.
Crème de la Mer is currently offering various complimentary treatments at their counters – there is no obligation to buy and the staff are welcoming and friendly. I would recommend trying the eye care treatment I opted for. The eye creams are applied using a silver-tipped applicator, which reacts with the haematite in the eye product and encourages blood to flow to the surface for a de-puffed, glowing eye area (something I definitely need in the morning, these days!).
Yes, this kind of skincare doesn’t come cheap but if, like me, you struggle with your skin, it really is a worthy investment. Whilst you might initially baulk at the occasionally triple-figure price tags, the quality of the products mean that you need to use about a quarter of the amount of a more affordable counterpart. If used correctly, these products will last for ages and the results they manifest will surely be worth it. At the age of 26, I am starting to think seriously about my skin and beginning to think about anti-ageing. Crème de la Mer’s Moisturising Lotion is looking like a good place to start.
My favourite Crème de la Mer products:
A Dukan dinner: beefburger, prawns, an egg, 0% fat yoghurt and a gherkin. Mmm delicious.
Thanks for reading my blog, I hope you have a lovely Christmas and a very happy new year!
If you’re anything like me, you’ll spend a lot of time, money and effort on your skin, smothering yourself in the latest and greatest products on the market. The order in which you get ready for the day says a lot about the amount of importance you place on things. I shower, wash my hair, do my skincare routine and then cake myself in slap. If I have time, I will blow dry the front of my hair and then rough dry the rest. As you get older though, it’s not just your skin that ages, your hair does too and are affected by three environmental factors; Environmental, Thermal and Chemically-assisted. These things unfortunately mean that it’s possible for a 20 year old to have the chronological ‘hair’ age of someone who is 60! Luckily, label.m has developed ‘Therapy Age-Defying,’ a system which works by helping to repair the gaps which form inside the strands of ‘age-challenged’ hair to combat dullness and frizz.
