As early as 15, my mom taught me to moisturize my face at least twice a day. I became a solid Olay Moisturizer user from 15 until early 20s. When I got married, I shifted to Clinique moisturizer and other beauty products. I guess all of my mom’s beauty regimen are paying off because she is almost 60 and still, she has not used any anti-wrinkle cream. I even have more blemishes than her. Anyways, I have been reading a lot of reviews on La Mer for quite sometime now and if not because of the skyrocketing rates, I would have tried it along time ago. Now, are you curios what this miracle cream’s ingredients are? Check the list below which I got HERE. I am this close in buying a trial size.

Ingredients:
• Seaweed (Algae) Extract

• Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seeds: Sesame oil is anemolllient, can be irritating to those with very sensitive skin. However, I believe that the whole seed are included here as part of the Miracle Broth component of the creme, which means including all of the vitamins and minerals within the seeds.
