3. No 1 eye contour brand in French Pharmacies in 2011

Yes, Caudalie is the top skincare brand in French Pharmacies, formulated with a maximum of Natural ingredients, grape seeds in order to preserve the environment and the skin.

Now that we’re clear that this is a very very very special brand that is highly established the world over, we would like to share with you more about the stories behind the brand. The Western hemisphere has already witnessed the phenomenal success of the Caudalie brand and experienced the extraordinary results of its products, it’s now our turn to learn a few French beauty tricks, ya?

Here are a few key points that this blog post will touch on today.

One, Caudalie is all about natural beauty products inspired by the vines. Yes, we’re talking grapes here. And through the years, Caudalie has developed products with their three very special patents (yes, yes, we will cover that a little later).

The other two important things you need to know about the Caudalie brand is their 0% philosophy and how eco-friendly the company strives to be.

So now, are you ready for the full works of the Caudalie brand?

CAUDALIE | HISTORY

Let’s first hear from the creators of the brand, Mathilde and Bertrand Thomas.

I created Caudalie because I believe that it is possible to formulate ultra-effective and Natural beauty products with refined, luxurious textures inspired by the vine.

For more than 15 years, we have continued our research with Professor Vercauteren, in a tradition that respects both your skin and the environment.

Next up is the history of the brand. It’s interesting to see how the brand came to be and how it has evolved over the years.

1993 – AN IMPORTANT ENCOUNTER

It was in 1993.

During the grape harvest on the family estate, Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte, we met Doctor Vercauteren, a professor at the University of Pharmacy of Bordeaux, who upon seeing the grape-seeds, exclaimed:

“Do you know you’re throwing away treasures?“.

He revealed to us the extraordinary anti-oxidant power of grape-seed polyphenols. They provide exceptional protection for the skin against free radicals, the main cause of skin ageing.

1995 – THE BIRTH OF CAUDALIE

We registered a patent on the extraction and stabilization of grape-seed polyphenols in 1994. A new path in anti-ageing cosmetic treatments was opened. For the first time, grape-seed polyphenols were used.

The first 3 products in the Caudalie range were released in 1995 and we began to sell them in pharmacies in Bordeaux.

The following year, Caudalie signed a research agreement with the University of Pharmacy of Bordeaux, and installed its own team of researchers.

1999 – THE CREATION OF THE FIRST VINOTHÉRAPIE®SPA
1999 – RESVERATROL OR THE MOLECULE OF THE FUTURE

In 1999, we registered our 2nd patent for Resveratrol.

Resvératrol is the vine’s own immune defence. Extracted from vine stalks, this active ingredient provides exceptional results in fighting wrinkles and loss of firmness. It was the starting point for a new range of effective and Natural anti-ageing products: Vinexpert.

A recent study conducted by Harvard Medical School proves that Resveratrolprolongs the life span of a cell by stimulating the production of sirtuins (longevity proteins). This discovery opened a new door in the fight against skin ageing and for medicine in general…

2004 – THE POWER OF THE “TEARS” FROM THE VINE

Each spring, the vines reawaken. Sap flows from the vine stalks, and it is said that the vines are weeping. This sap that flows from the stalks was once used by young women to reduce spots and brighten the complexion.

After years of research, we were finally able to identify the molecule responsible for creating such radiance:
Viniferine. This active ingredient gave life to a new range of radiance and anti-dark spot products:

Vinoperfect, which would become a best-seller in pharmacies!

2006 – A COMPLETELY PARABEN-FREE RANGE

From the beginning, we formulated our products with a maximum of Natural ingredients in order to preserve the environment and the skin.

In 2006, Caudalie made an innovative move by removing parabens from all its products. From that point on, our formulas have contained preservatives used by organic brands.

AND… TODAY!

Grape-seeds have made it all around the world! Now, our products are distributed in more than 25 countries.

We dream of a greener world. For us, “cosmetics” is synonymous with “ethics”. We favour using biodegradable active ingredients. We are in the process of reducing all our paper usage. This year, we will have saved 75 tons*… it’s a start!

*more than 1,200 trees!

CAUDALIE | COMMITMENTS

Since 1995, Caudalie has “recycled” grapes, grape-seeds, and vine stalks. Nature gives us so many riches. Preserving nature is our goal!

Caudalie’s eco-friendly plan: these aren’t just words, but company objectives.

1.Reduce our paper consumption

5.Eliminating waste

CAUDALIE | PATENTS

In 1995, Caudalie was born from a major scientific innovation: an exclusive patent on the extraction and stabilization of grape-seed polyphenols, the fruit of our collaboration with Professor Vercauteren, a world-renowned specialist in polyphenols.

CAUDALIE | WHAT’s IN A NAME?

And… there must be one question hovering on everyone’s mind at this point!

We’ve shared sooooo… much about the Caudalie brand, but what about its name? What does it mean?

DID YOU KNOW?

Caudalie is an oenological French term that quantifies the duration of a wine’s flavor in your mouth. One second of time equals one Caudalie. The finer the wine, the longer its flavor lingers on the palate – thus meriting more Caudalies!

We will be back to blog more about the brand and also some of its latest products.

Meanwhile, you can check out THIS BLOG POST ABOUT CAUDALIE’s PREMIER CRU RANGE.

The Premier Cru range is a fantabulous anti-aging range that has won fans the world over. It was launched exclusively at all SaSa stores for the Malaysian market in late 2011.

Did you know there’re actually many many many (get the idea? keke!) different types of masks to cater for different skin conditions and problems. It’ll be good if you know your own skin well and know what sort of masks to get.

For instance, you may wish to buy an assortment of deep moisturising, anti-aging and whitening masks if you’re concerned about achieving radiant, fair and youthful looking skin. But if your concern is pimple breakouts, then you probably want to control the sebum secretion, so you may wish to try some oil-control masks.

And oh, except for sleeping masks (which are meant to be left on while you sleep…), you shouldn’t leave mask on your face for a protracted period of time. read the instructions on the mask product and be sure you remove the mask within the stated time. You run the risk of dehydrating your skin if you leave mask on for too long.

We’ve put together some beauty tips about using masks for you…

What about the Mask Kingdom special deals, you ask?

Did you know that there are over 300 *GASP!* different types of masks that our shops carry? Yup, so many you’ll be spoilt for choice!!

And now, moving along… can’t wait to share this uber-fabulous news with everyone!

Remember we’d blogged about the Taiwanese skincare brand that’s been raved about by just about a million peeps, and that’s been recommended by countless beauty gurus and magazine editors?

Yea, we’re talking about NEOGENCE!

Neogence is actually a ‘doctor’s brand’, yea, a cosmeceutical brand. That’s actually a combination of cosmetics and pharmaceutical. You may click HERE to read everything you need to know about cosmeceutical brands and products.

Most of you would probably know that Neogence is exclusively available at all Sa Sa stores in Malaysia. When we’d first rolled out the brand back in late 2010, we’d posted a series of brand and product introduction.

Did you miss out on these?

INTRODUCING NEOGENCE, PART 1: OVERVIEW
INTRODUCING NEOGENCE, PART 2: THE BRAND
INTRODUCING NEOGENCE, PART 3: THE IMPORTANCE OF HYDRATION
INTRODUCING NEOGENCE, PART 4: THE TECHNOLOGY OF HYDRATION

Today, we’re gonna be introducing a new product range that will be the savior for many of us living in this part of the world.

Now, tell me, how many of you peeps have combination or oily skin? Hands up!

One, two, three, four…. okie, okie, too many to count!

Comparatively speaking, we peeps with oilier skin are sorta blessed coz the signs of aging tend to show up less or later on our faces vis-a-vis peeps with dry skin.

But but but, we too have our own host of problems.

Other than being more prone to acne and pimple breakouts, did you know that our oilier skin condition is also a hindrance to the absorption of all the goodness in our skincare products?

Yes, if we don’t do the necessary cleansing and skincare steps to prepare our skin to receive the nutrients of the skincare treatment products, we’re wasting our money spending so much on skincare products, and we’re also wasting time on our skincare regime.

But fret not! Neogence has a new product range that will help us take care of this problem. And whoa, this range is also a whitening range….!

ZZANG…!! Introducing

Neogence ACE!

Yes, as official marketing tagline says… Relieve your heavy skin with Neogence ACE, the Revitalizing and Brightening Series!

The Neogence ACE series is effectively an All-Round Skin Revitalizing System – for Skin Renewal, Brightening, Protection and Anti-Oxidant.

For a start, we’re launching six products under the Neogence ACE range, and they’re rather affordably priced at RM50 to RM160.

The products are already on the shelves, so do check them out at our stores. You may also refer to our retail colleagues for more advice as to whether or not these products suit your skin condition.

Meanwhile, we’ll just share abit more about these products with you.

As shared earlier, peeps with oilier or combination skin tend to have problems ensuring that the nutrients of the skincare treatment products actually get absorbed into their skin. This is due to our skin condition blocking the absorption.

As you all probably know, our skin consists of various layers. The top most layer of our skin is called the epidermis. Peeps with oilier skin tend to have more old and dead skin cells sticking onto the surface. This poses as the first layer of obstacle for our skin to properly absorb the nutrients of the skincare products.

Then there is the stratum spinosum (or spinous layer), which is a layer of the epidermis found between the stratum granulosum and stratum basale. This layer is also referred to as the ‘spinous’ or ‘prickle-cell’ layer. For peeps with oilier skin, the structure of their spinous layer tends to be more irregular and disorganized, and this makes absorption harder as well.

And then there’s the dermis, which refers to the layer of skin between the epidermis (with which it makes up the cutis) and subcutaneous tissues. In the case of peeps with oilier skin, there often occurs slower metabolizing.

So yes, Neogence clinical trials have proven that oily skin tends to have poor absorption issue. Further trials and tests further show that oily and combination skins have an advantage in that the skin do not show as readily (as dry skin) signs of aging such as roughness , dullness, dark spots, loss of skin firmness, but yet, at the same time, this particular type of skin suffers from poor absorption in skincare products.

Because of the relatively slower metabolism for this skin type, making the structure of epidermal cells irregular and disorganized… As such, the excess sebum secretion makes the old and dead skin cells stick to and accmulate on the skin surface, and this leads to the poor absorption ability.

If no remedial action is taken, even if thousands bottles of precious skincare products were applied, the results would be limited.

So now that we know why and how oilier and even combination skin can pose such issues to our proper and ready absorption of skincare and treatment products, let’s have a look at how the newly-launched Neogence ACE range of products can help to counteract all these…

Basically, there are two main strategies involved.

Strategy 1 – Patent Liposome®
Conduction Technology that Increases ingredient penetration by 300%

The first strategy involves liposomes, or more precisely, it involves improving the conduction technology, rendering the delivery and absorption of nutrients better! In fact, trials and tests have shown that this conduction technology can improve ingredient absorption by a whopping 300%!

Liposome® Patented Liposome Conduct Technology:

Through use of the structure of a special double Phospholipid liposome is able to coat a large amount of active ingredients and pass through layers of stromal cells to the target area.

Liposome then deforms to release the active components in a stratified manner, aiding oil-soluble ingredients that would otherwise be unable to penetrate the skin and reach the deepest layer of the epidermis to do so, effectively increasing absorption of ingredients by 300%!

Yes, you didn’t hear wrong, 300%!

Strategy 2 – Vitamin A
Works on the deep, underlying layers of skin to renew, restructure, and metabolize old skin cells, improving absorption

In fact, the Neogence ACE range gives you more than just these two strategies. This range also boasts of an All-Round formula – Renewal x Brightening x Anti-Oxidant!

With the help of Vitamins A, C, and E in skin renewing, lightening, and anti-oxidant, plus another two patented ingredients, Biophytex (eye contour brightening factor) and Matrixyl™3000 (fine lines smoothing factor), the Neogence ACE series effectively releases skin from dullness and roughness, darkness and restore skin firmness.

Biomedical Conduct Technology
- Rovisome® ACE Plus Effect Diagram

Whoa! That’s a whole lot of information to digest in a single post! Are you overwhelmed yet? Guess we’d better continue with Part 2 later.

This first part is all about the Neogence ACE range, and we will be introducing the six products in greater details in this ACE series in Part 2. So do watch out for it, ya?

We’re gonna be rolling out more activities to celebrate the happy launch of the Neogence ACE range!

For instance, there’s gonna be a mighty interesting blow-by-blow trial campaign by the magazine peeps! Yup, we’re gonna be inviting a couple to try the products and share their before and after pics. Yup yup, we’re gonna be able to see the progress and improvements of their skin with the use of the Neogence ACE!

And… wait this space (and of course, also OUR FACEBOOK PAGE!) for more updates and promos!
