“The history of Caudalie began when the future founders met Professor Vercauteren of the Bordeaux Faculty of Pharmacy. Scientific research has been a pillar of the brand’s philosophy starting with that first encounter and continuing on today...Since then, Caudalie’s mission has been to be continually innovative in formulating ever more effective products, developed from the most precise research into natural matter, always maintaining the greatest respect for the skin and environment.”
The fateful meeting between Caudalie’s founders and Professor Vercauteren, which took place at Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte (an authorized Grand Cru of Graves (Bordeaux) belonging to one of the founders’ parents), revealed an interesting bit of info: the grape seeds that were being thrown away after the harvests were known to contain polyphenols—powerful antioxidants. Such were the beginnings of Caudalie. Caudalie VinoPerfect Complexion Correcting Radiance Serum promises improved skin tone and clarity with satiny moisturization. Caudalie Anti-Ageing Serum Eyes and Lips touts the ability to immediately tighten eyelids and to firm eye and lip contours—as well as to diminish “chronic puffiness”.
Did you know?
Well, by now you’ve probably guessed why many of Caudalie’s formulas are called VinoPerfect: the grapes…that’s where it all began! And if you visit one of Caudalie’s VinoTherapie Spas, don’t expect to sit around tasting wine—but you can have a Barrel Bath—in an actual wine barrel!
