The Caudalie Formulas Every Skin Routine Needs
There's science behind every formula, too. In partnership with Harvard University, Caudalie has developed patented technologies designed to help target the most common signs of ageing. With a long-standing commitment to highly natural formulations, you'll find that each product from the brand contains 95-100% ingredients of natural origin and avoids irritants and ingredients that can interfere with your hormones.
So, to introduce you to the very best of Caudalie, we've explored the brightening Vinoperfect range, iconic Premier Cru collection and more of the brand's must-have formulas for healthy, radiant-looking skin.
Who Is Caudalie’s Vinoperfect Range For?
Caudalie's Vinoperfect range is designed to even out your skin tone and reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation caused by ageing, sun damage, acne and more, with gentle yet effective ingredients. While you've probably already heard of the iconic Vinoperfect Serum, there are lots of other brilliant formulas to explore, including the innovative Brightening Peel, which can be found in the brand's latest skincare set.
Caudalie
Vinoperfect Brightening Dark Spot Serum Vitamin C Alternative, £52.00
The Brightening Serum
This serum has become a go-to for anyone tackling post-acne marks. It uses Viniferine™, a patented ingredient derived from vine sap that's said to be 34% more effective than niacinamide at brightening, to help fade the appearance of pigmentation, sun damage and acne scarring. It's a great alternative for anyone who's found vitamin C too punchy but still wants in on the brightening benefits.
Caudalie
Vinoperfect Dark Spot Correcting Duo, £52.00
The Transformative Duo
The bestselling Vinoperfect serum, praised for preventing and correcting dark spots, is joined by the new mandelic acid brightening peel in this brand-new duo. Massaged onto dry skin after cleansing and gentle enough to use every day, the exfoliating foam works to get rid of dead skin cells while brightening and moisturising to reveal a clearer, more radiant complexion. If you're struggling with dark spots or hyperpigmentation, be sure to add these hard-working additions to your routine.
What Makes Caudalie’s Premier Cru Line So Special?
Caudalie’s Premier Cru line comes with a luxury price tag, but like vintage wines, it’s absolutely worth the investment. Utilising the power of the Caudalie X Harvard Medical School Longevity Patent, each and every product in the range can help to lift, smooth and firm your skin. The line comprises two moisturisers (a lightweight and a rich version), an eye cream, and a serum, so you can experience a full routine.
Recently, the patent has undergone further clinical testing with longevity expert and member of Caudalie's scientific committee, Jean-Marc Lemaitre, revealing that just one jar of The Rich Cream can help skin appear fuller, reduce the look of fine lines and dark spots, boost collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid production, and strengthen your skin barrier. The result? Fresher, bouncier looking skin.
Caudalie
Premier Cru Anti-Aging Eye Cream for Fine Lines and Wrinkles - 15ml, £45.00
The Multitasking Eye Cream
We’re not going to beat around the bush; this is easily one of the best eye creams we’ve tried. It’s light yet hydrating and the natural plumping effect helps to subtly lift dark shadows and smooth fine lines.
Caudalie
Premier Cru Anti-Aging Serum with Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid - 30ml, £85.00
The All-In-One Serum
Many beauty editors agree that your serum step is worth the investment, and Caudalie’s formula makes a strong case. Rosewood extract is one of the key ingredients, which supports your skin’s health span and helps it stay bouncy, working alongside niacinamide to help even skin tone, resveratrol and honokiol to help boost collagen production, and viniferine to target pigmentation.
Caudalie
Premier Cru The Rich Cream, £85.00
The Future-Proofing Moisturiser
At this time of year, most of us need our moisturiser to work a little harder, and Premier Cru’s Rich Cream delivers intense hydration - thanks to hyaluronic acid, shea butter, and ceramides. It helps smooth the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and dark spots for a brighter, plumper-looking complexion, while its barrier-repairing formula locks in moisture for lasting hydration.
The Best Caudalie Products For All Skin Types
Caudalie
Resveratrol Lift Lightweight Firming Cashmere Cream, £39.00
The Weightless Moisturiser
Think of this as the lightweight sister of Firming Cashmere Cream – a fluid version that’s perfect for combination skin types who love weightless hydration and don’t want to miss out on all the perks of Caudalie’s Resveratrol collection. It still hydrates to perfection and reduces the appearance of wrinkles, plus, despite its mattifying finish, it gives an instant healthy dew.
Caudalie
VinoHydra S.O.S Deep Hydration Moisturiser - 60 mL, £20.00
The Power Hydrator
Caudalie’s VinoHydra range works wonders on all skin types, including sensitive. Packed with hyaluronic acid to hydrate, organic grape water that’s bursting with antioxidants and the new addition of shea butter to repair frazzled skin barriers, despite the rich, luxe texture, it sinks in beautifully.
Caudalie
Resveratrol-Lift Firming Cashmere Cream, £49.00
The Seriously Hydrating Face Cream
Caudalie’s Resveratrol Lift Firming Cashmere Cream really is a very, very good moisturiser. It’s creamy, hydrating and yet it melts into skin effortlessly. Featuring vegan-friendly collagen, hyaluronic acid and nourishing grapeseed oil, it leaves your skin feeling soft and plump.
Caudalie
Vinopure Natural Salicylic Acid Pore Minimising Serum, £32.00
The Blemish Buster
Some blemish-fighting serums can be too harsh and send your skin’s oil production ability into overdrive. Using salicylic acid and niacinamide, Caudalie Vinopure Blemish Serum strikes the perfect balance between loosening blocked pores and keeping skin hydrated. It’s gentle enough to be used daily and works very well with Caudalie Vinopure Pore Purifying Gel Cleanser, £20.00.
Caudalie
Vinoclean Gentle Cleansing Almond Milk, £17.00
The Everyday Cleanser
If you’re of the belief that life is too short for multi-step routines, this cleanser is the one for you. It removes makeup, including stubborn eye makeup, and gives your skin a deep cleanse. Enriched with almond milk, it leaves your skin feeling comfortably clean rather than dry and tight.
Caudalie
Beauty Elixir Prep, Set, Glow Face Mist, £18.00
The Classic Caudalie Mist
A roundup of the best Caudalie products wouldn’t be complete without the Beauty Elixir. This face mist helps to hydrate skin and refine pores, leaving you with a fresh, healthy-looking glow. It can be used as part of your morning routine or misted throughout the day to refresh and revive your makeup and your skin. If you try just one product, make sure it’s Caudalie Beauty Elixir.
Don't Forget To Explore Caudalie's Suncare
Caudalie’s Suncare range helps defend your skin against sun damage and premature ageing, while nourishing it deeply with natural antioxidants such as grape seed oil and vitamin E. Every Caudalie SPF is powered by the CollagenSkinProtect complex, which helps preserve collagen by protecting against UV rays, infrared and blue light.
Caudalie
Very High Protection Lightweight Cream SPF50+, £18.00
The Featherlight Face SPF
With its ultra-light, invisible texture, this is an SPF you'll look forward to wearing. It melts into skin with no white cast, and being fragrance-free, it's suited even to sensitive skin - while its featherlight finish doubles nicely as a makeup primer for daily wear. If you have dry skin, there's also a richer version to choose from, which layers just as beautifully underneath makeup.
Caudalie
Invisible High Protection Stick SPF50, £15.00
The Sun Stick
When you're out and about during summer, it’s imperative that you have something quick and easy to apply that doesn’t require your hands to be free of sand, saltwater or ice cream. This invisible, fragrance-free SPF 50 stick is ideal for topping up your protection without fuss, and it's suitable for everyone in your family - even babies.
Caudalie
High Protection Glow Oil SPF50, £22.00
The Dry Oil Mist
This SPF 50 dry oil mist is a good option for anyone who doesn't love the feeling of sunscreen. The silky texture absorbs quickly and leaves your skin with a pretty sheen. We like using it as a substitute for body glow, getting both protection and radiance in one.
Caudalie
Invisible High Protection Spray SPF30, £22.00
The Invisible Lotion Spray
A high-protection cream in an easy spray format, this lightweight milky mist melts into your skin with minimal rubbing and has a hydrating effect that lasts for a few hours. We also love the coconut water and white flower scent - it's beautiful but isn't too overpowering to wear all day.
Caudalie
Very High Protection Cream SPF50+, £19.00
The Hydrating Face SPF
This face SPF is so creamy and hydrating, you can often forgo your regular moisturiser. And while you might think creamy + hydrating = shine, that isn’t the case here. Instead, it has a velvet-like finish that leaves your skin looking healthy, radiant, and glowing from within.
Why We Love Caudalie
Savvy skincare users buy Caudalie because the formulas feel luxurious and deliver results, but they come with French pharmacy price tags (for the most part). You can pick up a gentle cleanser for less than £20 and a hydrating serum or face cream for less than £30. We love that the brand prioritises natural, vegan ingredients, alongside luxury textures.
