Busy lives? hectic schedule? Check and check! With being on the constant go and at times lacking the quality beauty sleep we need, it can take a toll on our skin, leaving it a little dull and in need of some golden glow and a bit of TLC.
Well, I can certainly help you achieve just that, all whilst in your lunch break! I know sounds so get out of the stuffy office or break free from the dreaded office air con and enjoy a fabulous spa treat facial all whilst in your lunch break.
A busy morning of preschool run, emails, opticians and meetings the list grows, I was in dire need of some r&r and was very much looking forward to the best appointment of the day at the Sarah Chapman Beauty Clinic in Chelsea, for my Dermalux LED Light Therapy Treatment, which you may remember from my Instagram.
As I sat down, in my comfy chair, faced cleansed, red LED Spaceship of wonders whizzed to life, I kicked back and relaxed, even snoozed a little whilst this non-invasive treatment took shape. I reluctantly opened my eyes 30 minutes later but was dying to see the outcome, I could feel it, my skin felt tighter, my eyes felt wider, dare I say it, it felt SHAMAZING! And by freaking heck it looked it, my sensitive, blotchy red skin, looked alive, gone are the red blotches, my skin was glowing and hydrated and lapped up Sarah Chapmans Skinesis skincare line. I looked like a woman who was well rested with not a care in the world, it was great.
Fast forward a few weeks, and I headed down to Marshall Street Spa at Everyone Active, just off Carnaby Street, to try out a new treatment department with Caudalie, with some fabulous blogger babes, for an evening of pampering. Yes, I said evening, but the facial I went in for takes up 25 minutes of your lunch break, enough time to still pick up some lunch.
Robe on, I headed into the dimmed treatment room, a quick application fill in and a lovely chat with my beauty expert to find out all about me and my skin and what I like and don't like and a few cheeky giggles too, then the facial commenced! With Caudalie's natural products worked into my tired face and learning all about the new Vinoperfecct range, which I am dying to get my hands on, especially as I could not stop having all about the Vino[Activ] range.
I have not been sleeping very well for the past few weeks, due to stress, which has left my face dull and lacklustre, bringing out those dark circles in full force and was doubtful that this 25-minute facial would help restore my face. Whilst these Caudalie potions and lotions are left to absorb into my face, I was given a much-needed hand and arm massage to my delight. It was result time! My complexion was healthier and glowing, dark circles diminished, face smoother and tighter and pores reduced on my sensitive skin! I actually looked like a normal human being again.
I think both facials are perfect for a lunch time pick me up, still leaving you with time to spare to pick up some cheeky products in the spa or some Percy Pigs from M&S.
Will you be heading for a facial this lunchtime?

I recently attended a beauty show and there I meet the lovelies from Caudalie. We had a great chat and an introduction to the french beauty brand, created by a humble family based in Bordeaux, who own a vineyard and one day were visitors by a doctor and were told not to cast out the vat of grape seed treasures, but to create something magical with them and shortly after, the first grape extract-derived antioxidant skincare came to life, leading to the creation of Caudalie a paraben-free, natural, environmentally friendly, active ingredient company.
Caudalie are always developing new products and they finally have a new beauty line, so I was pleased as punch when they sent me their new VINE [ACTIV] range.
The new VINE ]ACTIV] range is for the person be it male or female who lives an active life, who is always on the go, starting to sound a little familiar no?!
It's aimed at a person such as myself, who is a busy working mum, constantly on the run be it for preschool, ballet, swimming lessons you name it, I'm probably doing it! But what I do want whilst doing all the day to day life activities is to have smooth soft skins but with a natural glow and this is what Caudalie's VINE [ACTIV] range promise and does it deliver, well slow down don't be in such a hurry, I'm going to fill you in, but first I want to tell you that in this range, comes four products a serum, moisturiser, eye cream and a night oil.
I suffer from dark circles due to lack of sleep and a busy life and I have to say I truly adore this eye cream, it's been my life saviour, it totally refreshes my eyes. once patted in I feel and look more awake. It's not a heavy greasy eye cream but light, and silky and absorbs from the moment you apply. Now I've only been using for 10-11 days and I have to say for that time period, I've noticed a difference.
The self-defence Serum is super lightweight like water, but don't let that fool you, this concentrated serum, is jam packed with antioxidants to protect your skin from ever day aggressors such as pollution to keep your skin silky smooth and to add a natural glow. It also is there to help combat those first little signs of those pesky wrinkles and leave the skin plumper now tell me, who doesn't want to banish those wrinkles, even delay them a little while longer?
Moisturiser an important and vital part of anyone's beauty routine, I recently found that some friends don't moisturise and no offence , they wonder why they have dry skin and enlarged pores. It's so important to moisture daily and twice a day! Caudalie's 3-in-1 Moisturizer helps fight and protect our skin from the smallest of pollutants floating around in the London air, so we do not absorb all that dirt and grime, sounds gross right? It's not just a protective barrier, but it's velvety texture upon application just seeps into your skin helping smooth out those wrinkles day and night whilst giving your skin a natural glow, now tell me who does want their skin to glow?
I give you the final beauty in the lineup Overnight Detox Oil now I'm a major fan of face oils so it's no surprise as to how much I would love and appreciate this overnight wonder especially come morning. I wake and my face as weird as it sounds feels clean and not heavy from products. But wake and my skin feels refreshed, relaxed even, don't get me wrong I don't want to wake most mornings, always crave an extra 30 minutes in bed but with this dry oil infused with anti-oxidant grape-seeds, regenerating rose hip and soothing lavender it's not a bad way to wake knowing that this 100% plant based formula promotes cell renewal and toxin elimination leaving me with healthier looking skin.
For me, it's truly important to have healthy skin more so than to have great makeup (well let me be honest! I'm pants with it, but working towards rectifying that), yes I was gifted this new Caudalie VINE[ACTIV] range but all thoughts are my own, of use and learning and seeking out the knowledge that I've informed you of. When it comes to skincare, your skincare always ask questions, find out more about the brand and it's history instead of diving in, protect your skin with the right ingredients and you'll find the brand will take care and protect your skin.
The whole of the Caudalie VINE[ACTIV] range is suitable for all skin types, so no matter the type you are covered.

The only downside about this whole range is that I know I'm going to go through bottles of the blasted eye cream, it's that good! Now, do I just buy a gallon and not pay for Leanora to go preschool this month?
Have you purchased the new Caudalie VINE[ACTIV] range yet, if so what are your thoughts?
