Turn off all the “stress noise” in your skin: La Mer’s upgraded The NEW Concentrate, safe to use even after aesthetic treatments

With daily shifts in the environment and occasional aesthetic treatments such as pico laser sessions, our skin seems to be under constant stress, with redness and dryness or itchiness striking without warning. If your vanity has been missing a skincare product that can come to the rescue anytime and give you real peace of mind, La Mer’s new The NEW Concentrate, launching September 1, is well worth investing in for the second half of the year.

Upgraded powerhouse ingredients: Give your skin “noise-canceling headphones”

More than simply hydrating the skin’s surface, this serum draws on neuroscience to help block stress signals in the skin. Its formula is infused with the brand’s signature high-concentration Miracle Broth™, which can boost key lipids that soothe the skin’s nerves by 117%. Like noise-canceling headphones for delicate skin, it blocks out the “noise” of environmental stress and changes in climate, allowing skin to calm down and repair itself. With continued use, it can visibly improve skin plumpness by 21%.

The instant it touches the skin, the serum’s outer liquid barrier forms a supple cushion, while its rich micro-droplet texture delivers the comforting feeling of being gently enveloped.

Is there a solution for stubborn hyperpigmentation, too?

Beyond calming redness, this upgraded formula is even more appealing for its addition of a new clarifying algae ferment and patented Lime Tea Concentrate. After a bout of skin sensitivity, many women worry most about the uneven skin tone it can leave behind. This algae ferment works at the source, and clinical testing has shown that it can reduce uneven skin tone by 57%, fading existing dark spots while preventing new pigmentation from appearing to restore a clear, translucent complexion.

A repair guide for everyday use and after aesthetic treatments

If you have a pico laser treatment booked, this serum is an indispensable ally. Used before treatment, it can help strengthen the skin barrier by 56%; after treatment, using it for three consecutive days can boost skin hydration by 168% more than a regular moisturizer. Among high-end skincare products in the same price range and tier, it is clearly more effective and precise at repairing the skin barrier. For skin that is easily affected by external irritation, this investment can mean long-term stability.

The NEW Concentrate is now available at all La Mer concept stores and counters, priced from HK$ 1,815 (15 mL) to HK$ 8,035 (100 mL), depending on size. If you’re looking for a skincare savior to help repair your skin, try it in person and experience its texture for yourself.
