History of Caudalie
Caudalie is a French skincare brand founded in 1995 by Mathilde and Bertrand Thomas, inspired by the antioxidant properties of grape seeds discovered in their family vineyard in Bordeaux. Partnering with Dr. Joseph Vercauteren, a leading expert in polyphenols, they developed skincare products harnessing the natural power of grapes. Their first innovation was stabilizing grape seed polyphenols, known for their anti-aging benefits, leading to the launch of their initial product line.
Over the years, Caudalie has expanded globally, offering a range of clean, natural, and eco-conscious beauty products, including the iconic Beauty Elixir. Committed to sustainability, the brand avoids parabens, sulfates, and silicones while actively supporting environmental initiatives. Their Vinothérapie Spas, located in luxury destinations, provide treatments utilizing grape-based formulas. Today, Caudalie remains a leader in natural skincare, blending science with the benefits of vineyards to promote healthy, radiant skin.
