Mid-Week Beauty Report, May 16, 2012: My Latest Skin Care Crushes From Sephora

May 16th, 2012 by Karen 29 Comments

Well, I finally finished my beloved tube of Caudalie Vine Body Butter last weekend, and yes, it was just like Maxwell House Coffee (good to the last drop).

Polishing it off also left a void in my heart that I knew only one thing could fill, and the name of that thing starts with the word, “Sephora.”

Okay, that doesn’t make any sense at all, but you know me. Anything to try something new! 🙂

I stopped by Sephora on Monday night to look around, and here are three things (among many others) that caught my eye…

1. Caudalie Nourishing Body Lotion

As soon as I stepped foot in the store, I made a beeline for the Caudalie display. I’m still on a Caudalie kick, so I’m taking their Nourishing Body Lotion ($36 for 8.4 counces) out for a test drive.

With summer approaching, this is about the time I usually switch to lighter body lotions that don’t feel so heavy on my skin.

This one, for normal and dry skin types, contains antioxidant grape polyphenols and ginkgo biloba (of cognition-enhancing fame) to help keep skin soft and firm.

I’ve only been using two days, including today, and I already love it. It’s rich and moisturizing but doesn’t leave my skin greasy, and it absorbs more quickly than the Vine Body Butter.

If you’ve ever sniffed Caudalie’s Hand Cream before, it has the same light, fresh grassy scent.

So refreshing after a shower… It might be too early to say this, but I think I found my new summer moisturizer for my bod.

Ingredients: Aqua (Water), Glycerin, Caprylic / Capric Triglyceride, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil, Butylene Glycol, C14-22 Alcohol, Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil, Potassium Cetyl Phosphate, Palmitic Acid, Stearic Acid, C12-20 Alkyl Glucoside, Dimethicone, Parfum (Fragrance), Sodium Acrylates Copolymer, Caprylyl Glycol, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Sodium PCA, Cetyl Alcohol, Lonicera Caprifolium (Honeysuckle) Flower extract, Borago Officinalis Seed Oil, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Phospholipids, Polyglyceryl-10 Stearate, Tocopherol, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed extract, Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Benzyl Benzoate, Citronellol, Coumarin, Geraniol, Hexyl Cinnamal, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Limonene, Linalool, Hydroxyisohexyl-3-Cyclohexene Carboxaldehyde

2. Caudalie Firming Concentrate

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
