How much would you pay for better, younger looking skin?
Some women are paying as much as $1200 for a jar of skin cream and it’s so popular merchants can’t keep it in stock.
It’s what many of the stars use on a daily basis.
Jennifer Lopez practically bathes in it and Jennifer Garner splurges on it.
It’s called Creme De La Mer and it’s considered the ultimate in skin care.
Jennifer Walsh is the owner of The Beauty Bar in San Marco.
She says she can’t keep the $1200 jars of the cream on the shelves.
“The process alone is what makes it so expensive because it takes three or four months to make one jar and these are all handmade.”
A NASA scientist who was chemically burned over 90-percent of his body developed the cream because he couldn’t find anything else to heal his body.
Now, women of all ages swear by it.
Erin Wells is in her early 30′s and has been using La Mer for months.
We asked the owner of The Beauty Bar to compare other skin creams to La Mer.
Jennifer Walsh says, “Mario Badescu is a great product but really it’s comparing apples or oranges.
How it’s manufactured, the actual ingredients are totally different then each other.”
She says it’s hard to compare because with La Mer you don’t need a toner, an eye cream, or serum.
She says it’s all in one and that’s where you save money.
Susan Brennan recently switched from using Mario Badescu to La Mer.
You just pat it on and go.”
With the more reasonably priced skin care, there may be more steps but in the end the results are similar.
So you don’t need to spend $1200 on moisturizer unless, like the celebrities, you really want to.
It’s a matter of what you’re trying and what you want to try out next.”
La Mer also comes in a two-ounce jar which costs around $200.
The reason many people prefer La Mer is for it’s healing properties and because it’s one step.
