What are the Benefits of Resveratrol?

Resveratrol is a natural antioxidant compound found in high amounts amongst the skins of grapes and in red wine.

When ingested it can reduce inflammation in the blood vessels and improve their function, preventing them from clumping together to form the clots that lead to a heart attack or stroke. This explains the heart-healthy benefits of red wine, YAY!

For youthful skin to thrive it needs collagen and elastin, which free radicals can affect the production of. Resveratrol is a particularly potent antioxidant that neutralizes free radical damage and allows the collagen to keep on pumping. It has become a world-famous anti-ageing ingredient, pioneered by Caudalie around 20 years ago. The way it banishes wrinkles and enhances firmness is similar to the regenerating process that allows grape vines to live for a century.

Research from the darling French brand has shown a new synergy between resveratrol, and a complex of micro hyaluronic acids. Each of these ingredient is individually effective, but together they create an ingredient powerhouse  that support the skin's own production of naturally occurring hyaluronic acid.

Caudalie subsequently patented this complex – and bottled the benefits into a dedicated skin care range designed to restore your skin’s youthful contour. Thank you Caudalie.
