Caudalie

When college sweethearts Mathilde and Bertrand Thomas decided to spend a summer working on their family estate in Bordeaux, France, they had no idea they were about to launch a skincare empire. After meeting Dr. Vercauteren, a polyphenols specialist, they discovered the vast potential of utilizing grapes in skincare. In 1995, they created Caudalie and thus became the pioneers of luxury vinotherapy. Recognizing that vines, grapes and seeds contain multitudes of antioxidants and anti-aging properties, they became one of the earliest developers of resveratrol, now a skin care staple seen in many Caudalie formulas. Marrying old world ingredients with new world techniques, Caudalie remains a forerunner in the skin care community.
