La Mer

La Mer creates luxury, high-performance skin care and makeup by harnessing the power of the sea. In the 1960s, aerospace physicist Dr. Max Huber set out to help heal the appearance of scars he suffered in a lab accident. Pioneering the use of sea kelp and bio-fermentation in skin care, he created Miracle Broth™—the elixir that powers the legendary Crème de la Mer.

Just enough

I am olive color skin and 40 years old and wanted a hint of brightness to my face and this did the trick without the overwhelming look of packed on makeup. Oh and normally I DON'T spend this kind of money for one makeup piece. Plus this would last me a while since I don't wear it's everyday and the package is beautiful.

Love this powder!

It gives a subtle glow and its not too glittery. The packaging is even luxurious.

Too subtle

Bought based upon reviews and have other La Mer powders that I swear by - this disappeared noted hugely and I returned it. Oh well...

Disappointing!

This product just kept popping up, so I thought I'd try it! Very disappointing, it literally does nothing! The little silver streak lasted one application with no "illuminating". Thought maybe I was not using incorrectly so I had both my daughters try it with the same results!
