Combining every single one of Caudalíe’s registered patents into one, powerful anti-aging, anti-hyperpigmentation and firming (anti-sagging?) day and night moisturiser. What immediately struck me about this product was how easily it sinks into the skin without leaving a residue, despite feeling quite thick and rich in texture. The thing I love about Caudalíe? It all come from grapes, which to me means only one thing, wine!

The founders of Caudalíe, Mathilde and Bertrand Thomas, along with Professor Joseph Vercauteren discovered the unbelievably powerful anti-oxidant effects of the vine and have harnessed this power into their 4 registered patents, using the leaves, grapes, stalks and sap of the plant. So what are these patents and what on earth do they do?

Grape-seed Polyphenols

Discovered in 1995 by the Caudalie laboratory, these powerful antioxidants of the plant world are considered the best anti-ageing shield for the skin by stopping free radicals, the main cause of skin ageing.

Resveratrol from grapevine stalks

Discovered in 1999 by the Caudalie laboratory this molecule of the plant polyphenols family, found in grapevine stalks, is an outstanding activator of cell regeneration. It makes the skin firmer and younger-looking.

Viniferine from grapevine sap

This was discovered in 2004 by the Caudalie laboratory, grapevine sap has been used since ancient times to reduce dark spots and brighten the complexion. Stabilized and titrated by the laboratory, it corrects existing dark spots and their appearance while restoring radiance to the complexion.

Vine Resveratrol – Resveratrol-Oleyl

Discovered in 2012, this unique molecule acts at intra-cellular level by stimulating collagen fiber production and increasing epidermal thickness. It also acts at an extra-cellular level by inhibiting carbonyl stress to prevent glycation while encouraging the production of superior quality collagen and elastin.

So before Premier Cru, these actives were available amongst a wide range of treatments within their product wardrobe, but only now have they all come together in one rather gorgeous, glass pump bottle. I must add that the scent of this product is incredible, you can really smell grapes. It leaves my skin incredible soft but as mentioned before, it doesn’t leave a sticky residue so you’ll retain a matte, but fresh look. I’m noticing after only a week or so use, my skin looks brighter, partcularly as I’ve been feeling rather run down of late which has been showing in my complexion.

If you really want to make a difference to your skin, defending against ageing or helping to treat those unwanted signs, then Caudalíe Premier Cru The Cream is definitely worth checking out here from Space.NK. Use the code SNKHARR to bag yourself free delivery.
