La Mer Holiday 2009 Gifts

Here is an overview of La Mer holiday 2009 gifts for beauty. For this holiday season, La Mer brings us three skincare gift collections as well as lip, hand and body care products. All these three skincare collections presented in luxury gift boxes are limited-edition, while the lip, hand and body care items are existing items.

Legendary Luxury ($1,390.00)

This treasure is home to the jewel of La Mer - a magnificent (16.5 oz.) jar of the Crème nestled in a sleek green box with chrome detail and a lucite lid. In a short time, skin becomes softer, firmer, and looks virtually creaseless. This limited edition offering is simply the Crème de la Crème.

The Connoisseur Collection ($395.00)

The Connoisseur Collection brings together three essential skincare treatments perfect for any time of year: Crème de la Mer (2 oz.), The Lifting Face Serum (.3 oz.) and The Eye Concentrate (.5 oz.). Presented in a festive keepsake box, this offering is a beautiful way to both gift and experience La Mer.

The Signature Collection ($240.00)

Jet-setters will revel in the limited edition Signature Collection. Featuring convenient, travel sizes of Crème de la Mer (1 oz.), The Lifting Face Serum (0.5 oz.) and The Eye Concentrate (0.17 oz.), The Signature Collection lets your loved ones indulge in La Mer at home or away. Presented in La Mer’s signature, gift-ready box.

The Body Refiner ($110.00) & The Body Crème ($195.00)

Who wouldn’t love to receive the gift of diamonds? Treat someone special this holiday with La Mer’s latest innovation, The Body Refiner. This plush, creamy and calming treatment utilizes precious ingredients—including 1.75 carats of pure diamond dust— to deliver a cushiony resurfacing treatment that both polishes and softens the skin. For the ultimate winter treat, follow with The Body Crème, a sumptuous treatment that lavishes skin in a wave of long-lasting hydration.

The Hand Treatment ($70.00)

The Hand Treatment is a silky formulation that helps protect and even heal the driest hands. La Mer’s smart seaweeds attract moisture, an exclusive Skin Lightening Complex improves skin tone and clarity, and magnetized water helps reduce feelings of fatigue as it soothes on contact. Perfect for winter pampering, it encourages hands to look younger and feel softer to the touch.

The Lip Balm ($45.00)

Hydrate and help protect lips with the soothing Lip Balm. A truly luxurious emulsion, it works on contact to soften and moisturize. Like the original Crème de la Mer, the results are immediate, yet long lasting. This small gem is sure to please each and every one on your list this season.

Edward Bess Fall/Holiday 2009 Jet Set Collection

Born in Charleston, South Carolina, Edward Bess would discover his muse early on. With an innate sense of style and attention to detail, Bess was transfixed by varying degrees of beauty and the dichotomy of sleek and sexy with pure and provocative. These early images would serve as the impetus for his eponymous cosmetic line, a vehicle where Bess could channel his refined vision of how women should look, whether impeccably groomed or naturally seductive.

From attending Manhattan’s prestigious Professional Performing Arts School, where he studied theater, to a brief relocation to London where he lived among the fast-paced world of modeling, Bess collected and honed inspiration along the way helping to cultivate his idea of beauty.

This fall and holiday season, Bess embarks on a true voyage with his new rich colors, inspired by his trips around the world. Each product is available individually as well as within the new collective Jet Set collection.

Jet Set ($125)

- Presented in a signature luxury travel bag, this selection of products—comprised of Island Escape Shadow Trio, Compact Rouge, and Defining Lip Liner—is the perfect pick me up for glamour-on-the-go, quintessential for first class travel. Building on the success of his past collections, Bess is excited to launch Jet Set — another sure-fire cult favorite.

Island Escape Eyeshadow Trio ($60)

-Dress the eyes in Island Escape Eyeshadow Trio for day or night. This set includes three exotic and universally flattering shades that are rich to the touch for a luxuriously smooth application. While adding natural sex appeal to any woman’s look, this trio will also maintain your summer glow well into the fall with its skin-enhancing hues. Island Escape Eyeshadow Trio is comprised of three must-have shades: a shimmery beige, neutral tan and deep brown. Compete with a dual ended eyeshadow/liner brush and signature velvet pouch.

Compact Rouge in Island Rose ($36)

- A cream-based formula intended for both cheeks and lips – the sheer color, Island Rose, makes the perfect transition from summer into fall. This rouge conveniently gives a sheer tint to cheeks and lips for natural looking color, and can immediately brighten the entire face with the perfect combination of subtlety and sensuality.

Defining Lip Liner in Natural ($29)

- Perfectly accentuate the pout with Defining Lip Liner. This waterproof, long-lasting lip liner delivers a precise, professional line. Its automatic pencil design never needs sharpening while the creamy formula stays put for hours without feathering. The shade, Natural, will leave your lips with subtle yet seductive color.
