More details
The Caudalie story began in 1993, in the heart of the Bordeaux vineyards of Château Smith Haut Lafitte. Mathilde and Bertrand Thomas, heirs to this wine-growing land, met Prof. Joseph Vercauteren, an expert in pharmacy. He reveals a fascinating secret: grape seeds contain polyphenols, the most powerful antioxidants in the plant kingdom. This discovery turned their vision of skin care on its head, and laid the foundations for a pioneering natural cosmetics brand.
In 1995, Caudalie launched its first skincare products enriched with grape-seed polyphenols, combining effectiveness and naturalness. With a backpack full of products and a lot of determination, Mathilde and Bertrand set out to meet pharmacists. Their audacity paid off: the quality of their formulas quickly won over professionals and consumers alike. The brand became a key player in dermocosmetic care.
In 1997, Eau de Beauté, inspired by the Queen of Hungary's elixir of youth, propelled the brand into the international arena. Adopted by celebrities and make-up artists alike, this multifunctional product reflects Caudalie's philosophy of creating skincare products that combine science, nature and pleasure of use.
Naturalness, effectiveness and respect for the environment are the pillars of Caudalie's approach. The brand has established itself as a model in "clean" cosmetics, developing formulas containing at least 95% ingredients of natural origin. In 2006, it introduced a "cosm-ethics" charter that excludes controversial substances such as parabens, silicones and PEGs, while guaranteeing high-performance, pleasant skin care.
Caudalie goes even further by integrating eco-responsible practices into every aspect of its business. Since 2012, it has been a member of the "1% for the Planet" initiative, donating 1% of its worldwide sales to environmental projects. To date, the brand has funded the planting of over 10 million trees worldwide, including in the Amazon, Thailand and the United States. By purchasing a Caudalie product, every consumer contributes directly to this reforestation initiative.
Science is at the heart of Caudalie's DNA. In collaboration with renowned laboratories such as Dr David Sinclair's at Harvard University, the brand develops patented molecules with exceptional properties for the skin. Three emblematic active ingredients embody this expertise:
Each Caudalie product is formulated in its research laboratory in France, guaranteeing highly concentrated, effective and sensorial skin care.
From the outset, Caudalie has distinguished itself by its pioneering approach to sustainable cosmetics. In 2020, the brand is removing 60 controversial substances from its formulas and reinforcing its commitments to even "cleaner" skincare. In addition, all packaging is designed to be recyclable, recycled or refillable. This approach is part of a long-term vision to reconcile beauty, performance and respect for the environment.
In 2018, Caudalie inaugurates a new research center in Bordeaux. This eco-designed space houses laboratories dedicated to innovation and natural formulation, where over 1,000 active ingredients are studied. With passionate teams, the brand continues to push back the boundaries of natural cosmetics.
Caudalie offers a wide range of products to meet the varied needs of consumers. Each range is formulated with patented active ingredients derived from the vine and complemented by natural ingredients to offer targeted, effective and sensorial solutions.
Caudalie invites its customers to transform their routine into a true moment of pleasure. Light textures, delicate fragrances and eco-responsible packaging testify to our attention to detail. Each product blends harmoniously into everyday life, offering an experience that is both sensory and effective.
For over two decades, Caudalie has set the standard in natural cosmetics.

Its strong values, sustainable approach and innovative formulas appeal to an ever-widening audience.
