Shoppers rush to buy £150 Creme de Mer dupe that's scanning at the tills for only £9.50 | The Sun

WITH a cult following behind it including celebrities JLO and Kate Hudson, to name a few.

It’s safe to say that La Mer’s Créme de la Mer Moisturizing Cream is a must-have for creating the ultimate celebrity-inspired makeup bag.

  • Avène Cicalfate+ Restorative Protective Cream, £9.50, lookfantastic.com – buy here

While this sounds like a total dream, the £78 price tag for 15ml, £150 for 30ml, and a whopping £1,850 for 500ml exceeds far beyond our beauty budget for just one product.

However, Avène’s Cicalfate+ Restorative Protective Cream is being hailed as a must-have for its similarities to the La Mer créme but with a much more affordable price.

Available from lookfantastic.com, the £9.50 for 40ml is a total steal in comparison.

Avène, the dermo-cosmétique brand (which combines cosmetology and dermatology) is best known for its high-performing skincare products suitable for all skin types including those with sensitive skin. Whilst also ensuring respect for nature.

The lightweight Cicalfate+ Restorative Protective Cream works to soothe and rejuvenate skin from sensitivity and dryness.

The formula is infused with the first post-biotic biotechnological active ingredient derived from the brand’s well-loved thermal spring water which is key in many of the brand’s other products including the XeraCalm A.D Lipid-Replenishing Cream and the Thermal Spring Water Spray.

La Mer’s Créme de la Mer Moisturizing Cream also works to hydrate and rejuvenate the skin with its soothing formula that contains Vitamin C.

La Mer and Avène also boast a similar product texture.

Both products of course have their differences too, including, the packaging type.

The Avène Cicalfate+ Restorative Protective Cream sits in a sizeable tube that’s easy to carry around, whereas La Mer’s Créme de la Mer Moisturizing Cream sits in a pot that many hail as luxurious.

The Cicalfate+ Restorative Protective Cream can be used on the whole family from infants to children and adults and its 100ml tube is perfect for exactly this.

The cream is suitable to be used several times a day, simply apply it to the irritated area and massage the product in.

At £9.50 we’re not surprised that this cream is such a hit.

You’ll have to be quick though as the hype for this cream shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon and rightfully so.
