You know the one. The opaque, sea-green jar that sits on every influencer’s vanity like a trophy.
The real flex isn’t owning it — it’s finishing it. That takes commitment.
It’s a thick moisturizer. $205 for 1 oz. I tried it because the “Miracle Broth” legend is too loud to ignore.
The Broth
Fermented sea kelp — the whole brand hinges on this.
The Ritual
You’re meant to warm it between your fingers to “activate” it.
The Feel
Rich, occlusive, almost balm-like. Not for oil slicks.

Beyond the kelp broth, it’s a masterclass in elegant formulation. Luxe emollients, skin-identical lipids, a hit of citrus oil for scent.
- Miracle Broth™: fermented kelp for barrier repair
- Mineral Oil: classic occlusive lock
- Lime Tea Extract: antioxidant + that signature scent
- Glycerin: humectant to pull in moisture
Texture is dense — like chilled whipped butter. Melts on contact. Leaves a subtle, dewy film. Not a matte finish in sight.
Surprise: my chronically flaky patches around my nose just… stopped. No other cream did that. But a tiny blackhead appeared on my cheek. The price of richness.
Measurable change: barrier felt fortress-strong, winter wind didn’t sting. Zero change: fine lines, firmness. This is a repair cream, not a time machine.
It’s a phenomenal moisturizer for a very specific need. But is it a miracle? No. It’s a beautifully engineered, wildly expensive hug for your face.
