Laura Mercier Review

 Updated On:

Overview

Laura Mercier is a cosmetic brand that offers skin care products, makeup and bath and body treatments, as well as makeup application tools. Not only is this line offered via the official website, but there is also a store locator apparatus found on the website that points consumers to nearby Laura Mercier store locations. Although there doesn’t appear to be any background information provided on the website, all of the products are for sale directly online. Under the skin care category, there are lines like Cleanse, Masks, Treatment, Moisturize, Exfoliate, and Prepare.

As you may have already guessed, the Laura Mercier brand addresses common skin dilemmas like wrinkles, collagen loss, dark circles, sun damage, dryness, age spots, hyper pigmentation, and crow’s feet. Some of the Laura Mercier products under the Treatment category are the Flawless Skin Crème, Multi-Vitamin Serum, Illuminating Brightener, Night Nutrition Renewal Crème, and Renewal Serum. Major active components incorporated into these skin care treatments are Dead Sea Water, Vitamin E, Skin Health Complex (sugar beet extract, oat beta glucan and sodium hyaluronate), Vitamin A, and Vitamin C. The official Laura Mercier website does reveal a brief description of each product and what they aim to do for the skin, however, full ingredient lists are not offered at this time.

Product Details

Laura Mercier is a line of skin care, makeup and body care products suitable for women of various skin types. The goals of these treatments are to moisturize, repair, boost collagen levels, exfoliate, soothe and replenish skin. Similar to many other regimens, Laura Mercier should be used daily in order to be effective. Currently there is no money-back guarantee posted on the official website, and it is revealed that Laura Mercier products purchased from stores cannot be returned through the website. No actual clinical data is presented to potentially support the claims made about how well Laura Mercier products work. Free trial samples are not offered via the website.

The Good

  • All Laura Mercier products can currently be attained through the official website with ease.
  • Brief descriptions of each skin care product are offered on the website.
  • There is a store locator tool provided on the website.

The Bad

  • A solid cash-back guarantee is not offered online to back up Laura Mercier makeup and skin care products.
  • There are no positive reviews offered from past and current users found on the website.
  • Certain unknown ingredients found in Laura Mercier skin care and makeup products could irritate the complexions of some individuals.
  • Clinical research is not provided on the website at all.
  • No company background information is provided on the website.

The Bottom Line

The Laura Mercier brand is rather similar to many other cosmetic lines in some ways. This product line is presented with skin care treatments, makeup and body care products, which all aim to cleanse, hydrate and improve the user’s skin. Unfortunately there isn’t much offered on the website to back these kinds of claims up. While it is convenient that all Laura Mercier products are for sale directly through the website, it’s too bad that the ingredients for each product aren’t listed out. It may be a good idea to contact Laura Mercier and learn more before actually purchasing anything from this line.

Our Top Pick For 2009:  Dermapril-SP

Dermapril-SP was rated the best-in-class performer, with a cutting-edge formula and results visible immediately after use. Matrixyl 3000™, the primary active ingredient in Dermapril-SP, is backed by clinical research that showed reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles of as much as 33% after two months of use. Additionally, the formula contains the European miracle ingredient Argatensyl™, which creates an immediate tightening effect on applied areas, making results visible within minutes of use.

The treatment helps the skin regain a more youthful biochemical makeup by supporting the natural production of three building blocks – Collagen, Fibronectin and Hyaluronic Acid. The result is a rapid rejuvenation, diminishing the appearance of wrinkles and other cosmetic signs of age caused by sun exposure, smoking, stress, and other common factors.

In clinical trials, Matrixyl 3000™ decreased the appearance of wrinkles by as much as 33% over a six week period. With the immediate tightening benefits of Argatensyl™, this formula has a completely unique combination of short-term cosmetic results as well as sustained, cumulative benefits to the skin. Common reported results include smoothing and firming; softer skin; diminished appearance of fine lines and wrinkles; and healthier looking, glowing skin. Based on the high cost and quality of the ingredients, Dermapril-SP is reasonably priced. Customer satisfaction seems high and Dermapril-SP offers a risk-free trial, so users can evaluate the product prior to paying the full retail price.
