My main qualm with my skin is the pigmentation. I’m much more self
conscious about dark spots (scarring left from previously active spots) than I
do about the actual spots on my face. For the past couple of years, I’ve tried
to rectify and reduce the appearance of them, but I’ve never found something
that has properly worked. Back in 2005, Caudalie produced a form of cosmetology
by providing a solution to dark spots (a.k.a. pigmentation). This was in the
form of the Vinoperfect Radiance Complexion Correcting Serum, which has an
active natural ingredient that makes the skin more radiant and reduced dark
spots. Fast forwarding to 2015, Caudalie has taken this one step further and
has concocted a tinted moisturiser to go alongside the serum to treat dark
spots.
This is an anti-dark spot, light and milky product, which is supposed to
help with pigmentation. It contains 1000ppm of viniferine, which is the
ingredient to reduce the appearance of dark spots. I use this product after my
toner, before my moisturiser by applying about four-five drops with the pipette
and applying it over my face. I use this twice a day, once in the morning and
evening. I’ve found this product to really treat my skin and reduce the
appearance of my pigmentation to the point where I’ve left the house without
any foundation or tinted moisturiser! The first time I used this product, I
remember that I woke up and my skin felt really soft and radiant!
The latest Caudalie launch is the tinted moisturiser, which is to not
only help conceal, but also treating at the same time, therefore being a
treatment and a makeup product all in one. It’s meant to provide enough
coverage to conceal a vast amount of pigmentation. The shade range is very limited
as it only consists of two shades, light and medium. The tinted moisturiser has
500ppm of stabilized viniferine, which is the same ingredient that’s in the serum,
used to treat pigmentation. I use medium which is still too light however when
I apply powder, it just about works for my skin tone (about a MAC NC44). It
lasts really well on my skin and is perfect for those ‘no makeup’ makeup days
and it has SPF 20 which is great for protecting the skin from sun damage!
Have you tried any of these? What do you think?
I love Caudalie products, these sounds lovely, i love the sound of the tinted moisturizer, especially as i find myself picking them up over my foundations recently!
