La Mer

La Mer, a luxury skincare brand, was founded by aerospace physicist Dr. Max Huber in the 1960s after he suffered burns in a lab accident and sought to create a healing solution. After 12 years and 6,000 experiments, he developed the Miracle Broth™, a fermented blend of sea kelp and other natural ingredients, which became the cornerstone of the brand’s iconic Crème de la Mer moisturizer. In 1995, Estée Lauder Companies acquired La Mer, expanding its global reach while maintaining its luxurious and transformative skincare reputation. ​
