This review is totally based on my opinion!...
Crème de la Mer face cream….I’ve heard so much about this ‘amazing/very expensive’ cream and I’ve always been curious about it… 1 month ago, I went shopping with a friend, and I passed the Crème de la Mer counter, so thought I’d check the cream out, first opinion when I touched it was ‘woahhhh this cream is sooo thick’… got talkin with the sales lady and she was really nice and gave me a sample to try it out….The sample tub she gave me was small, but its lasted me for more than a month now, and I still have like 1/3 of it left….
The story behind this cream is also very touching…well I found it touching….but basically…
The creator of Crème de la Mer was a man named ‘Dr. Max Huber’; he was an aerospace physicist for NASA. During a lab experiment, he suffered severe chemical burns on his face. Dr Huber couldn’t find any products that were on the market to help heal his burns, so he decided to invent one….it took him 12 years and nearly over 6,000 experiments before Crème de la Mer was invented.
Soooo…when I heard this story, I was like woahhh this cream can help to heal burns?!sounded kinda crazy to me…I also heard that famous celebrities like Beyonce and Kate Moss uses this product….but hey, there rich…they can afford it…
Prices for this cream is like
· 30ml - £95
· 60ml - £180
· 250ml - £600
· 500ml - £1150
Apparently in order for this cream to work its wonders, there's a special technique you got to do...
The quote "Apply day and night for a lifetime"...made me laugh!!!whaaaat...lifetime?!!...are u bein seriouuuusss??!!!!imagine the amount of money you'd be spending, on JUST a moisturising cream =S
But yeh, my personal opinion...the cream did kinda work for me, my skin has gone a bit smoother and more hydrated and brighter, but i'm not sure whether i'd pay £95 for a tub of 30ml cream though...there's soooo many different brands out there, i'd prefer to spend the £95 on finding the 'right' moisturising cream for me...
