Healing

I had a chemical burn on my face from too much glycolic acid, I had sample of this and in an hour it calmed the red down, stopped the itching and burning so it definitely has healing properties.

Very moisturizing and soothing

This is a first impressions review as I've not been using the product for long. As one who has long used Nivea cream, I can see why that's what people would want to compare it to, but I would hardly say it's a dupe. La Mer is a lot softer and feels like it has more petrolatum or soft wax worked into it. The closest thing I've used in feel was a Victorian era cold cream recipe that was mostly petroleum jelly and jojoba oil (standing in for spermaceti.) But the La Mer not as oily looking as products this heavy usually are. Here's the thing: I have super dry skin and live in a super dry climate. I always love skincare products that mostly have bad reviews from people complaining they're "too heavy/oily" or that they contain mineral oil (the only stuff that works.) This stuff is great for someone like me who really needs the extra moisture. It's a rare product that doesn't leave my cheeks burning an hour later from dryness. I hope I'll continue to love it (at this price!)
