In 1993, when a professor of Pharmacy Faculty of Bordeaux met a young couple and future Caudalie founders Mathilde and Bertrand Thomas, he explained that the grape seeds they threw away after harvest were actually a skin care goldmine. Stabilized polyphenols, he told them, are a treasure for skin because they are the most powerful free-radical trappers in the botanical world.
Since then, it has been the Caudalie mission to continually innovate in formulating effective products developed from the most precise research, always maintaining the greatest respect for skin and the environment.
