Details & care

What it is: A sensorial facial scrub that refines, detoxifies and replenishes skin.

Who it's for: Ideal for those with dry, normal, combination or oily skin types.

What it does: Sugar crystals and sea salt gently smooth away dullness and fine, dry lines while sea kelp fibers work like a cleansing cloth to draw impurities from your pores as the proprietary Miracle Broth™ oils replenish, soften and smooth skin.

How to use: Apply to dry or damp skin as desired. For more intense exfoliation, gently massage onto dry, cleansed skin. For a creamier oil texture, add water to dissolve the natural exfoliating crystals. Rinse with warm water and pat dry. Use 3–4 times weekly.

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.

Exquisite!

I've been working from my dining room since March 11/20. Been through a lot- Zoom happy hours; Tiger King; watching people make sourdough, Zoom yoga with an instructor teaching from his kitchen on the upper east side of Manhattan, my brother-in-law passing away from COVID 19 in July and I couldn't go to the funeral; standing on my porch for 8minutes 40 seconds every evening for a week in remembrance of George Floyd's murder; gently saying, "no thank you, I can't help you understand privilege, but there are some great resources out there"; training alone and running alone in a virtual 5k race; the groundhog saw his shadow; a Christmas morning bombing in my city; an insurrection in my country - on my birthday; what am I missing? Yes, I deserve this face scrub - I mean, "replenishing oil exfoliator". It is worth every penny because IT MAKES ME HAPPY!

Not for ME

SORRY!!! I have to agree with some of the other people on here this Was very unpleasant to use . It has And BAD smell to it. It's too oily. And it doesn't exfoliate Good at all. So I guess I'll stick with my estee Lauder Exfoliate

Amazing!

I love this exfoliator and when Nordstrom was out of stock for a while I ended up ordering it from Sephora because I was afraid it was getting discontinued. Every time I use it, I feel like I’m in my personal spa. I don’t understand the reviews about the scent. That may be my favorite aspect of it. No way it smells rancid! I wonder if these reviewers got an old/bad product. This is worth the money to me!

Gentle Exfoliator

If you’re looking for a moderate exfoliator, something you can use more than once a week, then this is a good option. I like it, but I probably won’t buy it again. I’m just not sure it’s worth the splurge. It does feel nice to have an exfoliate with an oil based delivery system, but I’m not overwhelmed by it. I use it about twice a week and really I just feel like it’s giving me an oil treatment rather than truly exfoliating. So if you’re looking for a true exfoliator, I’m just not sure if this is it.

Hydrating and Smoothing

This is the best exfoliator I have ever used for my face. The quality of it is immediately apparent. I find it especially welcome for my dry skin because of how hydrated I feel after using it. It is also quite smoothing. However, to some, it might have a bit too much oil. Also, the smell is not great (but not awful either). I first used a sample, but fell in love and bought the full size.
