Caudalie Beauty Elixr
Hi ladies! So today's review is a
product that is brand new and you will have never heard of before…if you have
been living under a rock. I know I'm a bit late to the party but I wanted to use the whole bottle before I gave you my thoughts.
The Caudalie
Beauty Elixir took the beauty blog land by storm and is a product I have been
tempted to buy for quite some time. The reason I put it off for so long is the
price. At £9.90 for 30ml it’s not the cheapest and when you have bills coming
out of your ears it’s not always possible for me to afford all the lovely
products I would like to try.
Anyway at the
end of summer I finally got round to purchasing this from Feel Unique, which
was great timing as it came with 2 free Caudalie samples!
I think the
thing that really drew me to this product is the fact it’s marketed as a ‘Beauty
Elixir’ and not just another toner (which I think essentially is what it is)
makes it seem that little bit more luxurious.
Caudalie
Beauty Elixir smooths features, tightens pores, and gives the complexion a
burst of radiance. An excellent base for make-up, Mist onto the face before
your moisturiser and at any time of the day.
Apply between your foundation and powder to perfectly set make-up.this water
awakens the skin in the morning and livens it up before a night out.
I have
been using this after cleansing and it feels lovely on my skin, it leaves me
with a really fresh feeling. I like the way the product has a pump so I can
easily spritz it over my face.
I'm always on the hunt for products that make my make up last any longer than it usually would. At first I found it
quite strange applying it after my foundation but before my powder, as I've never used a setting spray before but I really did like the finish it gave.
It’s very
heavily scented, which I know some people find off putting but I actually quite like it it reminds me of vicks or eucalyptus when I spray it I take a deep breath and find it quite relaxing.
The one negative point I have with this product is that it does contains a lot of alcohol, which I usually try to avoid but it hasn't effected my skin in any way taht I can tell.
After a lot of consideration I would repurchase this. It's refreshing, sets my make up and I just really enjoy spritzing it all over my face and that's a good enough reason for me. I know I'm usually a bargain hunter but skincare is the exception, if I do like a product I have no guilt repurchasing.
I didn't try this when the buzz initially hit. It's died down a lot now, so I'm glad I stuck to my guns and didn't get it! x
ReplyDeleteI tend to by products after the hypes died down I think it can affect peoples opinion when everyone is banging on about it xx
DeleteI've been thinking about purchasing this for a while! Think I'm just building up to it a little bit at a time! Eksh - such an investment and I'm not sure what it would actually do for my skin! Mmm.. still debating
