THE LA MER STORY

THE LA MER STORY

The story of the legendary Crème de La Mer began half a century ago, when the aerospace physicist Dr. Max Huber was the victim of a serious accident during one of the experiments he was carrying out in his laboratory. This leaded to severe burns on his face.  As neither medicine nor science could help him to eliminate his scars, he decided to find a way of making them disappear and giving his skin a second youth. He dedicated 12 years of his life to the quest of transforming the look of his skin thanks to the healing power of the sea. After 6'000 experiments, his tenacity and faith payed off when he created the nutrient-rich Miracle BrothTM, La Mer's miraculous ingredient that enables him to transform his skin.
THE MIRACLE BROTH

THE MIRACLE BROTH

Dr. Huber has always been convinced that the sea was a miraculous resource. Fascinated by sea kelp, he believed into their regenerating power and potent nourishing properties. He started then to ferment kelp gently with simple and pure ingredients, infusing them with light and sound until he created the famous nutrient-rich Miracle BrothTM. This active principle, used today in each La Mer product, has the power to really transform the complexion, leaving the skin softer, firmer and visibly younger.
