Luxury skincare label La Mer’s partnership with National Geographic Society is going into its third consecutive year, and building upon last year’s World Oceans Day campaign with the Society’s renowned Explorer-­in-­Residence, Dr. Sylvia Earle, it will honor the work of Emerging Explorer, Andrea Marshall. 

The Queen of Manta Rays, as she's known, continues her groundbreaking research and conservation programs, which help to save globally threatened manta rays, other vulnerable marine megafauna, and their critical habitats. The video above is her presentation at the Explorers Symposium organised by National Geographic.

"La Mer is proud to continue its partnership with National Geographic Society to help improve the health of our oceans,” said Global Brand President of La Mer, Sandra Main. "Emerging Explorer, Andrea Marshall shares our passion for preservation and her groundbreaking discoveries have been remarkable."

To commemorate World Oceans Day, a 100ml jar of Crème de la Mer with a new limited edition design will be available from now through June 2014.
