Caudalie Crushed Cabernet Scrub Review

 

Together the thick consistency and coarse granules provide skin with a thorough exfoliation, even on tough dry patches. With nourishing ingredients like grape-seed oil and juniper oil, Caudalie’s Crushed Cabernet Body Scrub won’t strip your skin of its moisture as it takes away the dead skin.

The essential oils also give the body scrub a refreshing scent, making it feel like a luxury beauty product to use.

Caudalie’s body scrub is more than just an exfoliator though and it targets women concerned with dieting and cellulite with its ‘6 draining and cellulite fighting essential oils’, but does it work?

The thicker consistency encourages you to massage the product into your skin, which in turn will increase your circulation and reduce cellulite, making it an ideal body care product to compliment a detox or diet. On it's own though, it won't tackle cellulite or take inches from your thighs.

Overall this body scrub is high performing and definitely worth splashing out on if you’re looking for an exfoliator that feels like a seriously pampering product with the extra benefit of helping to reduce cellulite slightly.

Caudalie’s Crushed Cabernet Scrub is £21.50 and available from Caudalie.com.

Rating: 6/10 – A little goes a long way due to the coarse texture, so Caudalie's exfoliator will last and does leave skin feeling soft and smooth. 

Caudalie Tinted Moisturiser Review

Although Caudalie’s tinted moisturiser is technically for ‘dark’ skin, don’t be deterred straight away. This is a great product for almost any shade of skin. A small amount goes a long way and leaves skin with a healthy, sun kissed glow. 

The formula is paraben-free and packed full of nourishing ingredients like grape seed, shea butter and olive squalane. The coppery pearlizers give skin the natural illumination, while ylang ylang and rose oil help to soothe and relax skin. 

Feather light yet creamy, this tinted moisturiser feels like a second skin and is a lighter alternative to foundation. Being fragrance-free it won’t clash with the smell of your moisturiser, making this the perfect product to give you a touch of sun throughout winter.

Caudalie Tinted Moisturiser for dark skin is available from Escentual.com for £16.70. It is worth mentioning that this product is also available in lighter shade too. 

Rating: 7/10 – This is a great product, especially if you don’t want to wear a heavy foundation, however finding the right amount to use for your skin tone is trial and error.
