Sea kelp ferment — the ingredient that made La Mer famous — has been part of my formulations since the very beginning. In my Exfoliating Mask, it makes up 25% of the formula, paired with papaya enzymes for gentle exfoliation and deep hydration. A true ocean treasure for radiant, nourished skin.

Seed oils have been misunderstood — but in my skincare, they’re miracle workers. I use borage, rosehip, grapeseed, and jojoba with full intention because they nourish, calm, and support maturing skin. These aren’t fillers. They’re foundational. In this post, I share why I stand by them, what makes them different, and how fear-based messaging nearly silenced one of nature’s most powerful gifts.
