How does Waves de La Mer work?

Waves de La Mer is a loyalty program that rewards customers for purchasing La Mer products and participating in certain brand experiences. It is a tier-based program determined by the number of points a member has earned within a single year on eligible purchases and through qualifying activities, beginning on the date when you enroll. There are 3 tiers with associated benefits:


• Tier 1, Marine           0 – 499 points
• Tier 2, Aquamarine   500 –1499 points
• Tier 3, Ultramarine    1500 + points

When you join, you’ll automatically be placed in Tier 1 (Marine) and be eligible for all the benefits Tier 1 members receive. If you earn at least 500 points in your first year, you’ll be automatically moved up to Tier 2 (Aquamarine). If you earn 1500 points or more in your first year, you’ll qualify for Tier 3 (Ultramarine).

Your status in a particular tier is good for the year in which you qualify for that tier and the following full year. After that, you’ll need to earn enough points to qualify for that tier each year. For example, if you qualify for Tier 2 (Aquamarine), during your first year, you’ll maintain Aquamarine status during your second year. But, if you earn less than 500 points on eligible purchases during your second year, you’ll drop back down to Tier 1, Marine status on your second anniversary date.

The higher the tier, the better the benefits.

What benefits do members receive?

As a member, you earn points that determine your points benefits plus tier levels and tier benefits.

Points Benefits: At different point levels, you will be able to redeem your points for rewards that can be used in conjunction with a purchase on www.cremedelamer.com. These rewards are based on the total number of points you have accumulated in a single year as listed below. You may redeem one reward per transaction on www.cremedelamer.com. You must redeem your available points prior to your anniversary date, or the available rewards will expire. On your anniversary date, your points reset to zero (0) and you start accumulating new points and earning new rewards.

• Free full-size product (value up to $65+MRSP) with purchase (online only, valid at 650 points).
• Free full-size product (value up to $150+MRSP) with purchase (valid at 1,500 points).

Tier Benefits: Certain benefits are based on tier level achieved and you are eligible for these benefits while you are in that tier regardless of the number of points you currently have. Tier benefits can only be redeemed on www.cremedelamer.com with the exception of exclusive in-store member events and VIP events or as otherwise noted. On your anniversary date, even though your points reset to zero, your initial tier status for the year is determined by the number of points earned in the prior year.

How do I earn points?

To earn points, you must be enrolled in Waves de La Mer at the date of purchase. If you are not a member of Waves de la Mer at the time of purchase, you must enroll on www.cremedelamer.com within the next 24 hours, using the same email address you provided at the time of purchase, in order to be eligible to earn points on that purchase. Waves de La Mer members receive 1 point for every $1 spent on eligible purchases on www.cremedelamer.com*. Eligible purchases include regular priced merchandise and exclude eGift Cards, Gift Cards, sales tax, state fees, discounts, shipping and delivery charges, and/or other excluded charges specified by us from time-to-time.

Members will not receive points or benefits from retail purchases made at airport store locations or from purchases made at retailers. Purchases made outside of the United States are also not eligible for Waves de La Mer.

In addition to these purchases, here are more ways to earn points at www.cremedelamer.com:
• Bonus Points Events

* All points are pending until your order ships, at which time they are added to your account and may be redeemed for rewards. It may take up to 24-48 hours from the time your order ships for points to appear in your account.

I placed an order online, but no points have been added to my account yet. Is something wrong?

Points will be added to your account once your order ships. It may take up to 24-48 hours from the time your order ships for points to appear in your account.

Why have my points disappeared?

When you redeem your points for product rewards, the available points in your account will decrease based on the amount of points you redeemed.

Points are valid for one year from your Waves de La Mer anniversary date. On your anniversary date each year, your points reset to zero (0) and you start accumulating new points.

On your anniversary date, even though your points reset to zero (0), your tier status is determined by the number of points accumulated in the prior year.

What is my Waves de La Mer anniversary date, and where can I find it?

This is the anniversary of the date when you enrolled in the Waves de La Mer loyalty program and occurs on a 12-month cycle. For example, if you joined Waves de La Mer on November 15, 2019, your anniversary date would be November 15, 2020, and every November 15 of each year following.

Your anniversary date is shown in your Waves de La Mer loyalty account page.

Why is my current tier status not reflected by my current points?

In year one of your Waves de La Mer membership, your tier status is determined by the points you accumulate during that first year. After year one on your anniversary date, your points reset to zero, and you can start earning points benefits again. While your points decrease when you redeem them for points benefits and reset each year on your anniversary date, your initial tier status for the year is determined by the points you accumulated during the prior year of membership, and you are eligible for those tier benefits regardless of the number of points you have.
