The Treatment Lotion

La Mer The Treatment Lotion is the first thing your skin should meet after cleansing. A watery lotion charged with the brand's signature Miracle Broth™, it cushions on contact, sinks in rapidly, and sets skin up to absorb everything you layer afterwards — while delivering hydration that holds all day.

What it actually does

• Primes skin for your routine. Its Active Liquid Hydrogel texture penetrates quickly, preparing skin to take fuller advantage of the serums and creams that follow.
• Hydrates and visibly plumps. The hydrogel plumps and protects while the formula keeps skin hydrated through the day.
• Energises with Miracle Broth™. La Mer credits its signature ferment with supporting skin's oxygen capacity and energy to activate renewal.
• Calms reactive-looking skin. The Revival Ferment helps skin resist visible irritation for a calmer, healthier look — in the brand's clinical testing, 93% of panelists showed reduced sensitivity to redness and irritation 150 minutes after applying.
• Targets fine lines, dryness and loss of firmness across normal, dry, combination and oily skin. The product is an Allure Best of Beauty award winner, per the brand.

How to use

1. After cleansing, scatter a small amount onto your fingertips — or soak a cotton pad — and press into the skin.
2. Follow with your serum, then moisturiser.
3. Use it as the opening step of any routine to prep skin for what comes next.
4. For a richer pairing, La Mer suggests warming a little Crème de la Mer (sold separately) between your hands and pressing it on after the lotion.

Questions

Is this a toner?

It plays the same position in your routine — straight after cleansing — but it's a hydrating treatment lotion rather than a clarifying toner. It adds water and preps skin instead of removing residue.

Fingertips or cotton pad?

Either works. Pressing it in with fingertips wastes less product; a saturated cotton pad gives more even coverage. Both are brand-approved methods.

How long does delivery take?

Delivery takes 3 to 21 working days, depending on availability. In-stock items arrive sooner; items ordered in for you take longer.

How can I pay?

Credit card, debit card, Instapay and mobile wallets — no cash on delivery.

What's the return policy?

We accept returns for defective, damaged or expired items only, reported within 1 day of delivery. Refunds are issued to the original payment method within 15–30 days after verification.
