The Essence

Once only available by invitation, then by being on a waiting list, and now by in-store appointment only; Crème de la Mer The Essence, the most expensive creation from the La Mer Max Huber Research Laboratories, making waves at about $ 2,900.00 for the 3 week treatment, currently more expensive than platinum or gold.

The Essence gets presented with carrying bag in a foam-lined jewelry-style case with droppers and a beautiful Plexiglas container with three 15 ml (0.5 oz.) magnetized glass tubes.

It’s the miracle inside that caused more than 100 units to be sold within the first 3 weeks of it being available at Harrods of London – The Miracle Broth, Dormancy and Mariponic.

Radiant Serum - Limited Edition

Another Christmas gift I am going to spoil myself with - La Mer's limited edition larger sized Radiant Serum!

And what's that we're seeing here? This luminous product has evolved from dropper, to pump, and now spray top (like I love on The Radiant Infusion and the Hydrating Infusion).

The limited edition Radiant Serum will be available in a 2.5 oz. size (at $ 495), compared to the 1 oz. (at $ 250).

If you are devoted fan of Crème de la Mer, this serum is a must in your skin regimen, as it works deep into your skin, aids in improving complexion and discolorations, and gives you that J-Lo glow!

My friend Karyn-Louka Albertze attended the Luxury Facial. Here's her story for you.

"I was very excited to be invited to the La Mer Luxury Facial, and after hearing about its exclusivity, and the fact that the event is only held for one day of the year, I could hardly contain myself!

Banksia Boutique Hotel

The Luxury Facial was held at the upmarket Banksia Boutique Hotel in Cape Town, a little piece of heaven away from the hustle and bustle of city living. Its manicured gardens and tranquil setting set the tone for what I was in store for. Having been welcomed by the La Mer Expert, I was ushered into a room with a variety of La Mer products on display – it was like a candy store for the face!
