After hearing Caroline Hirons liking Caudalie products I thought I would look into Caudalie
Caudalie products are cheaper the brand of skincare I normally use. So I thought I would browse a site Caroline reccomended too esentual.com
I found the products were priced between £6 and £46. And above this price the premier cru range.
I needed moisturizer as I was on my dregs of my moisturisers which were samples, having run out of my Clarins Hydra moisturizer. I chose the Vinosource range as it’s the moisturising range , and my skin as been dehydrated with been indoors most of the time.
But first I will let you know more about Caudalie. Its a green skincare range made from grape extract, veg oils waxes and butters, essential oils, floral and botanical butters,plants and fruit extracts.
Caudalie does not use parabens and phenoxyethanol, animal derived ingredients,mineral oils or sodium laureth sulfate.
Caudalie also gives 1% turnover for reforestation.
I saw the moisturiser in a collection it was a best seller the Vinosource Moisturising Sorbet £23 for 40ml. With it was a Vinosource SOS Thirst quenching serum sample 10ml and Moisturising Mask sample 15ml.
The moisturizer ingredients includes Chamomile, Shea butter,grape water,polyphenols ( anti age and antioxidant)
The serum full size retails £29.00 for 30ml and ingredients are Hyaluronic acid, vinolevure,olive squalene,grape water and polyphenols.
The mask retails at £22 for 75ml and contains Hyaluronic acid, Vinolevure and green grape.

The mask is lovely I have had it on twice now. For 15 minutes and overnight as you can use it both ways. It left my skin feeling smooth and moisturized. It has a very earthy smell to it and a creamy thick texture.
Both the serum and moisturizer have fruity fragrance to them but a natural smell not synthetic. The serum absorbed into my skin and both products were soothing. The moisturizer was light and mousse like and the serum light and silky on my skin.My skin as felt soft and smooth since and its alleviated my dryness.
I did like the packaging it came in and they try and make it recyclable.
I feel as I may repurchase in the future. As I feel that they benefit my skin. And they are worth the price considering the ingredients.
Caudalie do a few collections and mini size products to try. Do look at the Caudalie site for further information as they can give you more information on there values and ingredients.
I hope you have enjoyed the article.
Bye for now 💋oxo

Thank you for sharing your review. A few years ago I started looking at ingredients and found information on how what’s in many of our personal care products adds to estrogen dominance issues in women. The only moisturizer I use during the winter months is Vitamin E oil. It’s light and doesn’t clog pores and makes my skin soft. What do you think about our personal care products and estrogen dominance?

Everything we use is a chemical from water to oxygen to cleaning products.
Some beauty companies use fear to sell products and Caroline Hirons a well known facialist is against the fear selling. However if you steer towards natural led and green cosmetics there are less harmful chemicals in them. Companies such as Body shop Caudalie and Clarins come into this group. But more and more companies are going parabens free such as Laura Geller. VitaminE oil is great and natural. I think there are more sun care companies going natural led . I use La Roche Posay which is a company approved by dermatologist and Clarins skincare due to my sensitive skin. Its important to have a good SPF to avoid skin cancer.

Thank you for your additional tips and suggested companies. As you say, chemicals are in everything, it takes a mindful person to navigate shopping for personal care products!

Also sensitive skin care avoids parabens and phlates chemicals which are thought to cause estrogen dominance. So look at the ingredients lists when looking at skincare.
