Caudalie Vinoperfect Concentrated Brightening Glycolic Essence

Product Description
Caudalie Vinoperfect Concentrated Brightening Glycolic Essence is the first step in the Vinoperfect anti-dark spot routine, for all women looking to prevent or reduce their dark spots, whatever their cause: sun, acne, age, pregnancy.

Effective yet ultra-gentle on the skin, it eliminates the dead cells that cause complexion dullness and revives the skin’s natural radiance. Its aqueous texture, between a serum and a lotion, is instantly absorbed and prepares the skin for the benefits of the Vinoperfect Serum. The delicate, natural orange blossom fragrance provides an instant sensation of freshness.

I purchased Naturisimo Glow Starter Kit which comprises of Caudalie Vinoperfect Concentrated Brightening Glycolic Essence, Pai Skincare Light Work Rosehip Fruit Extract Cleansing Oil, 100% Pure Bright Eye Mask, Evolve Bio Retinol Gold Mask and OSKIA Super-C Beauty Capsules sometime back and I have emptied the rest except for this essence. 

And it's been over 5 years since I last used a Caudalie product, with my most recent ones being the Caudalie Moisturizing Toner and Caudalie Grape Water

Hailing from France, Caudalie was started by Mathilde and Bertrand Thomas in 1995 after realizing the incredible antioxidant powers of grapevines during a harvest in the vineyards of Château Smith Haut Lafitte. They continue to seek the planet’s most powerful anti-aging and skincare plants and extracts, and work with top researchers in laboratories based in France.

Caudalie is part of the “1% for the Planet” movement and donates 1% of its global sales to non-profits around the world that work to protect the environment. The programs Caudalie supports reach from reforestation efforts in the United States to China, Indonesia and Brazil.

“Give back to the earth a little of what it gives us each day.” – Mathilde and Bertrand Thomas, CaudalÍe Founders

Packaging, Scent and Texture

Caudalie Vinoperfect Concentrated Brightening Glycolic Essence Texture


My Caudalie Vinoperfect Concentrated Brightening Glycolic Essence was a 30ml travel sized product, housed in clear plastic bottle. It has a lightweight medium consistency with the Caudalie distinct fragrance which I am not a fan of.

How To Use :
1) Use the Concentrated Brightening Glycolic Essence morning and evening before your Serum. 
2) Apply to cleansed skin using a cotton pad, all over the face and not forgetting the neck. 

note : Avoid the eye contour.

Performance and Ingredients

Caudalie Vinoperfect Concentrated Brightening Glycolic Essence is a natural brightening essence that is powered by exfoliating glycolic acid and hydrating grape water to visibly reduce the appearance of dark spots.

This lightweight, refined formula is both gentle and effective, said to leave skin feeling smooth, plumped and illuminated as the essence works to eliminate dead skin cells, hydrate and moisturize, and bring out a beautiful complexion.

As recommended, I poured Caudalie Vinoperfect Concentrated Brightening Glycolic Essence onto a cotton pad and swipe it all over the face 1-2 times a week at night. My skin always feel cleaner, softer, smoother after each use, enabling the serum absorbed better in the next step of my skincare routine. 

It has a refreshing sensation whilst providing a gentle exfoliation for the skin. Since the essence contains glycolic acid, I don't fancy using it on a daily basis on my sensitive skin, but instead it is based on what my skin needs for that week. 

And since I don't use it daily, it may somehow affect the brightening effect as I don't really see a difference to the lightening of my dark spots on my cheeks or an overall radiance to my face. 

The key ingredients are.....

White Peony : Provide brightening, luminosity and complexion evenness.

Organic Grape Water : Moisturising and soothing. Offers a prebiotic action that contributes to a healthier skin.

Glycolic Acid : Eliminates dead skin cells and provides radiance.

Conclusion

To conclude, Caudalie Vinoperfect Concentrated Brightening Glycolic Essence always left my skin cleaner, softer, smoother after each use, enabling the serum absorbed better in the next step of my skincare routine.
