NEW! Caudalie Vinosource quenches and hydrates skin to the pink of its health

May 27, 2016 Paris B 11 Comments

Caudalie has been looking pretty in pink these days, with the new repackaging of their popular Vinosource range of products. Vinosource, if you’re not as familiar with the brand, is the hydration range. This is infused with their signature grape water for hydration, and polyphenols extracted from grape seeds for an antioxidant effect.

While previously packaged in a rather uniform white and maroon packaging, Caudalie has recently repackaged their signature creams, to make it easier to identify what you need for your skin – also looks a lot more attractive, if you ask me!

Quite many years ago, when I was first experimenting with the brand, I dabbled a little in the Vinosource range. For me, I consider this one the “starter range” for those new to Caudalie, as it is the most basic for most skin types. After all, all of us could do with a little more skin hydration!

With the new packaging, it is now easier to identify the moisturiser that best suits your skin type, as the tubes are now colour-coded into 4 handy pink shades.

The lightest pink shade is the Vinosource Moisturising Sorbet (RM140 | US$39 | £23 for 40ml) which is tailored towards those having sensitive skin. The texture is that of a gel-cream and as the name suggests, it has a very lightweight texture that seems to immediately sink into your skin. If your skin is very reactive, then this promises to soothe with the grape water, and to strengthen and protect with the polyphenols infused into the formula.

The next up is the Vinosource Moisturising Mattifying Fluid which serves combination skin best, as it has a light liquid texture, yet offers a mattifying effect on skin. This oil-free formula promises to add moisture to skin while keeping excess oil at bay.

Going up the pink scale, we have the Vinosource Moisture Recovery Cream, which is where I come in, for it is best used by dry skinned types. The texture is creamy yet light, and it promises to restore and strengthen the moisture barrier so skin seals in the moisture better. I tested this on my hand and it felt nice. Not heavy nor oily, yet seems to give dry skin that comfort we seek in a moisturiser.

The Vinosource Intense Moisture Rescue Cream is not available in Malaysia, as it is targeted at those with very dry skin, but it is available in the cooler climates which I think it serves best. This one is supposed to have a heavier texture, yet without feeling heavy or too oily on skin.

In general, I found the Vinosource moisturiser range quite light in texture. If you feel that your skin is feeling a little more reactive or dry, you can even do as I do, and sandwich the Vinosource Moisturising Sorbet between your serum and another moisturiser. I tested it on some evenings, and it seems to be quite nice, as the moisturising sorbet takes on a very watery texture on contact with skin. So, I treat it like a serum and my drier skin seems to take it well 🙂

Just FYI, for a limited time, the Caudalie Grape Water (I love the French name Eau de Raisin, because it sounds a little strange to associate water and raisin – dehydrated grapes – in the same phrase) is available in pink packaging (It’s usually green). It’ll be available for RM35 | £6 | US$13 for the travel sized 75ml bottle. I’d never tried this one before, only the Beauty Elixir but at the press event, I had some spritzed on my skin and it felt quite lovely! A fine mist that refreshes the skin, and which I saw with my own eyes, does not change the PH level of your skin. I’ll tell you a little more if you’re interested, or YOU can tell ME if you’ve used this before or are a fan! 😀

Have you used the Caudalie Vinosource range before this? Do you have a favourite product?

I have heard a lot about the Vinosource SOS Thirst Quenching Serum which sounds so promising doesn’t it? Thirst-quenching. I gave an involuntary swallow of my parched throat, reading that! 😀 Have you tried it?

Caudalie Vinosource is available at Caudalie counters, Caudalie Spa at Bangsar Shopping Centre, Sephora stores and online, Caudalie online stores. Prices are as set out above.

    There’s just something addictive to the beauty elixir which I can’t quite tell what is it. Probably the smell , I love it as toner, to refresh make up during mid day, on long haul flight …. Anything really… I won’t say it’s that special that you can’t find in other spritz, but it’s just so addictive and I can’t stop replenishing it every time I run out of it…. Weird, eh.

      Hehe there’s a reason it’s Caudalie’s most popular product, so you’re probably not alone! 😀 I wasn’t too much a fan of the Beauty Elixir unfortunately, but I’m in the minority 😉

    I kept a bottle of the Grape Water in my office. I have the Melvita and Trilogy mist at home. Although I can’t tell the difference between them (i.e. effectiveness), I find Caudalie’s Grape Water has the finest mist, and it comes in big bottle (200ml).

      Mmm I want to try it now coz I love fine mists! Also, it’s now back to being hot here so a nice cooling face mist would be lovely in the middle of the day just as I start to wilt and get sleepy 😀

    I’m using the moisturizing sorbet as a day moisturizer and I love it! It’s so light and comfortable. I use a hydrating serum under as a boost and so far so good. A little too light for night time though 🙂

      Definitely too light for night, but would be lovely in the day. The little burst of water like texture on the skin is nice right?

    I just bought the value set today, Paris! The moisturizing sorbet, that is…tried it on the back of my hand and it absorbed into the skin pretty quickly so I thought of giving it a try. What would you recommend though for a night moisturizer that won’t break the bank too much? Loving all the pink in your photo!

      Hi Yee, I hope it’ll work for you 🙂 For night moisturiser, a lot depends on what you’re looking for in a moisturiser really. I like REN moisturisers, and Antipodes, mainly because of the texture which are less siliconey. But if you use a facial oil or a serum in the evening, you could get away with using the same cream that you use in the day. After all, moisturisers are really meant to just seal in the goodness of your serums.

        Thanks for the recommendations, Paris! The grape water plus moisturizing sorbet combo feels pretty nice so far! I don’t use any serums or toners currently *cue the gasps* but I think it’s high time I start using one and start taking proper care (or at least some basic care) of my skin. I’m very lazy with skincare, you see. Gonna look through your archives on serums!

I remember when I first tried the #antipodesskinca I remember when I first tried the #antipodesskincare Aura Manuka Honey Mask. It blew my mind away! Soothes skin. Boosts hydration and just makes you feel like you have the best skin ever! Not kidding. If you have a spot or irritated skin, it calms it down and helps get rid of your spots too. Honey is anti bacterial after all, so it’s a great multitasker. 
I also love the Manuka Honey Skin brightening Day Cream. It’s light but creamy and sinks into the skin. I’ve reviewed them both on the blog in the past. If you run a search for Antipodes, you’d also notice how much I love the brand! 😁
I’m super late with this but if you’re planning to purchase any of these 3 Manuka honey items from TNS Skinlab, the code MYWSTUFF10 will give you an extra 10% off (until tomorrow 31 Dec) I highly recommend grabbing the Aura mask. You’ll never want to be without (I always have a backup!) 
Thanks for the gift @tnsskinlab and I must apologise for my tardiness 😩 I’ll learn to cope better from next week! 
Now I have to scuttle and write my year end musings. Some traditions must be kept! 😜

Place your order, and pick up in store or have it delivered. 
Had a bit of breather today and put together a little video. Blink and miss my little monster 🐶 helping me shop! Not sponsored but I did receive a gift from L’Occitane, for which my sun-exposed, dry dog-walking skin thanks you! 
Haven’t done any Christmas shopping this year. It has only just struck me that it’s but mere days away! 😨 Have you done yours?
