With everything going on in the world today, it’s no surprise that we are all just a little bit stressed out—and it shows. None of us are getting enough sleep, we are all just a bit on edge and our skin is suffering. Skin is an organ, just like the heart or kidneys, and it requires care. In the same way that getting exercise and drinking water help your internal organs, these things can help your one, very large, external organ (your epidermis!).

Dull skin can be caused by anything from dehydration and poor diet to forgetting to use moisturizer or alcohol intake. Don’t forget stress, not getting enough sleep and of course pollution. Compounded, these things can make you feel like your once stunning complexion has turned muddy and drab.

If you’re tired of using highlighters everyday in order to simply brighten your face, we have your back. If you feel like you have a dull complexion and just want to feel naturally confident about your skin, we promise, it is possible!

Long ago, in the French vineyards, young girls would prune the vines and use grapevine sap to brighten their complexions. Flash forward to 1995, when—in the heart of the Bordeaux vineyards—Mathilde & Bertrand Thomas found that grape seeds and vine sap contained Viniferine, a powerful antioxidant. The ancient French tradition inspired them to extract this patented ingredient and Caudalie was born.

Both effective and natural, Viniferine is sixty-two times more effective than Vitamin C at boosting radiance and evening the complexion. Caudalie’s Vinoperfect Radiance Serum has thus become a cult favourite, with one sold every thirty seconds globally. It is now even more effective* with the addition of a natural emulsifier for quicker penetration into the skin.  There is more to love than just the updated formula, Caudalie is also taking steps toward more eco-friendly packaging.  By 2022 their goal is to have 100 per cent  planet-friendly packaging. The relaunch of their products have started with 100 per cent recycled or recyclable packaging.  

 Suitable for all skin types, it works to visibly reduce the appearance of dark spots, including pregnancy marks, acne marks, sun pigmentation and age-related dark spots, and prevents them from reappearing. Its oil-free formula is refreshing while its subtle fragrance combines notes of citrus blossom, orange tree leaves, watermelon and mint. It’s made of 98% natural ingredients, and as with all Caudalie products, no parabens, phenoxyethanol, phthalates, mineral oils or animal-derived ingredients are used.

While it visibly brightens and evens skin tone, this serum creates a radiant looking complexion, which is exactly what we need these days.

So…are you reaching for vitamin C or the Vinoperfect Radiance Serum? We know which one we’re choosing!
