Call withdrawn.

We withdrew this call. Our earlier ingredient and pH analysis does not match the current source, and the substitute claim was not established.

The earlier call and its buying link are withdrawn while we reconcile the evidence. This is a correction to our work, not a finding that the product is ineffective or unsafe.

What we are correcting

  1. Creme de la Mer — La Mer US

    Earlier record: No water declared; tromethamine implies pH 6–7; lime peel oil.

    The current US list declares water and lime peel extract, and does not list tromethamine. It supplies no pH measurement. Our pH/carrier deduction and ingredient identity require correction, rather than inference from this list.

  2. Creme de la Mer — La Mer US

    Earlier record: CeraVe delivers the same job; no independent trial supports the premium.

    No attached head-to-head comparison or documented literature search establishes those conclusions. The brand’s own clinical claims are not independent comparative proof, and generic moisturizer guidance cannot establish equivalence.
