General, ingredient-based — not your personalized match.
See how this fits your skin
Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testLa Mer’s Genaissance de la Mer™ The Concentrated Night Balm is a sumptuous balm that supports natural renewal while you sleep. This silken ampoule-strength treatment penetrates deeply while you sleep plumping skin with renewing hydration helping support skin's natural collagen and elastin and its natural moisture barrier. It softens the look of fine lines wrinkles pores and age spots and helps skin feel firmer.
Genaissance de la Mer™ The Concentrated Night Balm 50ml is a cushioning balm from LA MER. The formula is built mainly around hydration and soothing. The ingredient list runs to 116 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as moderately cushioned — emollient enough to feel like a cream, without the heaviest occlusives near the top. It contains both silicones and oils, a combination that usually finishes smooth and slightly satin and sits well under makeup. Hydration is handled by Glycerin, Butylene Glycol and Propanediol, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: Very high. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Propanediol and Sodium PCA.
Soothing: High. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Algae Extract, Acetyl Glucosamine, Polygonum Cuspidatum Root Extract and Laminaria Digitata Extract.
On richness alone it suits Balanced skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry, Combination (dry), Combination (oily) and Oily skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on antioxidant protection and cell renewal. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is paraben-free, sulfate-free and no animal-derived ingredients. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging. It does contain fragrance, essential oils and drying alcohol, worth knowing if your skin reacts to any of them.
Use it in the morning. In a routine it goes taken with food. Follow the dose on the pack and check interactions with anything you already take.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
Drawn purely from the ingredient list
Scored on how rich or light the formula reads from its INCI order.
No ingredient in this formula carries a common-irritant flag, making it a reasonable option for reactive skin. A patch test is still recommended, as individual skin reactivity varies.
