You know the one. The opaque, ceramic jar that feels heavy enough to be a family heirloom.
The real magic is the ritual — you have to warm it between your fingers to activate the cream. Feels like a secret handshake.
It’s a thick moisturizing cream. $205 for 1 oz. The claim? A “miracle broth” that heals and transforms skin. I had to see.
The Broth
Fermented sea kelp and nutrients — the whole brand story.
The Texture
Solid balm in the jar, turns into an oil-rich emulsion on skin.
The Feel
Intensely rich. Not for the faint of heart.

The hero is the “Miracle Broth™” — fermented sea kelp. It’s an antioxidant and soothing agent. The rest is a classic, elegant moisturizing base.
- Seaweed (Algae) Extract: The fermented hero for calming
- Mineral Oil: Seals in moisture — old-school but effective
- Citrus Oil: For scent, can be irritating for some
- Lime Tea Extract: Antioxidant
It’s thick. Like cold butter. Warming it up is non-negotiable — otherwise it just sits there. Smells like…expensive old-fashioned cream.
Week 3: My dry, winter-flaky patches were gone. But my blackheads? Unchanged. It’s a brilliant moisturizer, not a miracle worker.
My skin was supremely hydrated and calm. No more tightness. But it didn’t shrink pores or erase fine lines. It just made my skin very, very happy.
It’s a phenomenal moisturizer for a specific need. But it’s not a cure-all. You’re paying for the silky texture, the ritual, and the legacy.
