At Rennaï, we're honoured to bring luxury and innovative skincare to Canadians and our growing community. And let's be honest—La Mer is a name you instantly think of when we talk about timeless skincare.  

At the heart of La Mer’s transformative power lies The Miracle Broth, a legendary elixir that harnesses nature’s healing energies to restore skin. Infused with nutrient-rich Giant Sea Kelp (Macrocystis Pyrifera), it visibly soothes irritation, strengthens the skin barrier, and stabilizes the skin. Known for its self-regenerative properties, Giant Sea Kelp is 70% water, similar to skin composition, and features a protective outer matrix that mirrors the skin’s stratum corneum. Responsibly harvested from the Pacific Blue Coast, it revitalizes, hydrates, and protects skin while acting as a natural humectant. The Miracle Broth is the foundation of La Mer’s entire collection, helping to repair and regenerate skin. 

In other words, La Mer is the brand you'll be scraping the bottom of the jar for because it's simply that good.   

We asked La Mer's Education Manager, Joe Dovizio, to answer all your skincare questions about the brand and its latest launch, The Rejuvenating Night Cream. Time to take notes!  

  

Question: What are the main ingredients in The Rejuvenating Night Cream, and how do they address specific skin concerns? 

Answer:   There are 2 Key Actives in the new Rejuvenating Night Cream:  

·      The Miracle Broth - A powerful and proven source of soothing energy for the skin. It helps skin combat visible aging through a Triple Mode of Action that stabilizes, strengthens and recharges skin's cellular energy.  

·      MRA-3™ (Marine Retinol Alternative) - A sea-borne source of power, this concentrated trio of 98% naturally derived, responsibly harvested sea plants carefully crafted to support skin's ageless proteins for visible renewal and repair. Helps speed rejuvenation without the irritation of retinol.   

Q: What clinical data supports the efficacy of the Night Cream's ingredients, especially for sensitive skin and various skin types? 

A: Here are some key insights that we’ve found:  

·      MRA-3 Boost: This ingredient has been shown to boost cell renewal by 30%, resulting in plump, smooth skin.  

·      Client Feedback: In a 4-week study, 95% of clients reported that their skin felt firmer, while 90% noticed an improvement in the appearance of lines and wrinkles.  

·      All-Night Protection: The Night Cream provides all-night antioxidant protection, helping to prevent and resist signs of aging and visible irritation.  

·      Dermatologist Tested: Rest assured, this product is dermatologist tested for safety and efficacy.  

·      Combined Use Benefits: When used with The Moisturizing Soft Cream, 92% of women reported that their skin looked more youthful after using both products for 4 weeks.  

·      Clinical testing: After using the product overnight, 31 women saw improvements across 8 signs of aging—fine lines, plumpness, softness, radiance, firmness, smoothness, texture, and wrinkles.  

·      Consumer testing: The testing involved132 women who used The Moisturizing Soft Cream in the morning and The Rejuvenating Night Cream at night for 4 weeks.  

Q: What makes the Rejuvenating Night Cream unique compared to other night creams on the market?  

A: In just one night, the new Rejuvenating Night Cream begins to reverse 8 critical signs of visible aging—lines, plumpness, softness, radiance, firmness, smoothness, texture, and wrinkles—thanks to Miracle Broth and MRA-3™, which accelerate rejuvenation without the irritation of retinol. Its "pillow-proof" texture hugs the skin's surface for a non-greasy feel, and with continued use, the appearance of lines, wrinkles, and nasolabial folds is visibly diminished.  

 

Q: What core La Mer products would you recommend pairing with The Rejuvenating Night Cream?  

A: Thankfully, our Rejuvenating Night Cream is a versatile product. You can easily pair it with:  

·      The Micro Peel - A potent yet gentle treatment that refines, replenishes and rebuilds skin overnight without stripping or weakening the skin's natural barrier. It's suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.  

·      Treatment Lotion - Like 'liquid energy' for skin and a booster for your skincare, it delivers continuous, all-night healing hydration.  

·      The SPF 50 UV Protecting Fluid – This provides daily sun protection SPF 50 and helps prevent the appearance of future discoloration and long-term skin damage.
