If you’re over 30 and you’re looking for a great anti-wrinkle skin care routine, you should listen up, because one of my favorite brands has just launched a powerful line that offers 100% protection against free radicals. Infused with stabilized vitamin C, the new Caudalie Polyphenol C15 serum, eye cream and SPF moisturizer is a powerful anti-aging mix that will definitely work.
You get up early, go to bet late, work towards a great career, a personal life and try to get a moment to catch your breath, read a good book and take care of yourself. Your day might be exhausting, but you definitely don’t need to show it.
For those moments when you need to boost your energy levels and tend to those stress related fine lines, you can count on the benefits of these highly effective and tolerant skin care products.
Caudalie launched an extremely powerful skin regime, that fights against oxidative stress and wrinkles. The line includes three expert treatments, that replenish the needs of your skin, giving it a youthful, healthy glow.
Caudalie Polyphenol C15 range
Polyphenol C15 acts as a super antioxidant and it’s suitable for all ages really, since most of us expose our skin daily to stress and pollution. Caudalie’s exclusive grapeseed polyphenols are the wonderful ingredients that protect skin from oxidative stress, which is responsible for 90% of our wrinkles.
To further blow your mind, research shows that polyphenols are 10,000 times more effective than the industry benchmark, vitamin E. These inhibit the oxidation process caused by free radicals (UV rays, stress, pollution) and protect the quantity and quality of the collagen and elastine, that are crucial to the youthful appearance of our skin.
Combined with stabilized vitamin C – something that is very hard to do – the effect is even more powerful. It can combat free radicals, help reduce the risk of cell damage, protect and stimulate collagen production. Furthermore, it makes out skin smooth and gives it a gorgeous glow.
Sounds great on its own, but Caudalie discovered that when their polyphenols are paired with vitamin C, the youth-preserving capabilities of both ingredients are intensified and work even better. Combined with hyaluronic acid and olive squalane to plump and smooth the skin, you get round-the-clock antioxidant protection and a smoother, brighter and younger-looking complexion.
Caudalie Polyphenol C15 Anti-Wrinkle Defense Serum
Caudalie Polyphenol C15 serum
The Anti-Wrinkle Defense Serum is the star of the range and has the highest concentration of this mega-potent, wrinkle-reducing cocktail from the line. This intensely powerful shot of antioxidants blocks free radicals, corrects and defends the skin against the aggression of UV rays and pollution and thanks to its formula enriched with hyaluronic acid and olive squalane, it has a moisturizing and plumping action, that makes your skin supple.
Thus, your skin is protected from daily stress factors and it also is more prepared to defend itself naturally. Lines and wrinkles are visibly corrected and you can see the effects after even one day of use. The complexion becomes brighter, plumper and radiant.
The texture is really light and it absorbs beautifully, leaving the skin smooth and visibly replenished. I use it mornings and before bedtime, and two drops of this stuff is enough to cover my face and my neck. It sinks in beautifully within about 30 seconds, after which I continue with the eye cream and moisturizer.
I also like to apply it to my clients before I do their makeup, as this is – much like the Caudalie S.O.S Thirst-Quenching Serum, a wonderful base or a primer, if you will, fitted for all skin types. Moreover, its delightful scent of mandarin, lemon, cucumber water and fresh mint has a reinvigorating effect and gives them a soothing experience.

Caudalie Polyphenol C15 Anti-Wrinkle Eye & Lip Cream
Caudalie Polyphenol C15 eye cream
The Caudalie Polyphenol C15 Anti-Wrinkle Eye & Lip Cream is a double-action gel-cream that reduces dark circles, puffiness and smooths the area around the eyes and lips.
The grapeseed polyphenols + vitamin C anti-oxidant, anti-wrinkle formula is enriched with Matrixyl 3000 (a gold star peptide combination that I will tell you more about in a separate post) and fern, horse chestnut for a smooth skin, liquorice as a decongestant.
The witch hazel and chamomile extracts soften the eye area and make the skin supple and smooth.
This eye cream is the best I tried so far. It’s instantly tightening, smoothing and moisturizing, it relieves dark circles and puffiness and has an immediate anti-wrinkle effect on fine lines.
Matrixyl 3000 is a brilliant mix of peptides to help with fine lines and wrinkles which is frequently lauded as a ‘wonder’ ingredient in eye creams. It combines palmitoyl oligopeptide and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7, two peptides that produce a dramatic synergy when used together, with great improvement on the skin matrix by 2,5 – 3,5 times. In particular, the synthesis of collagen type I increases by 258%, fibronectin by 164% and hyaluronic acid by 179%.
Here are some of the beneficial effects of Matrixyl, after two month of daily application:
- Reduction in main wrinkle: -15% in depth and -18% in volume
- Reduction in roughness: -14%
- “Lifting” parameter: 16%
- Decrease of deep wrinkles: -37%
- Increase in skin tone: +15%

It’s light, as it contains no oils, absorbs brilliantly and leaves skin rehydrated, smooth and out of free radicals’ harm. I love that fact that it’s not greasy and works compatibly with my makeup products.
As soon as it is applied, the skin is smoother, more filled out and perfectly protected all day long. The tangy and fresh fragrance notes awaken all the senses. I’m mesmerized by the sweet mix of orange plum and the fresh scent of mint.

After I applied the new Caudalie Polyphenol C15 serum, eye cream and moisturizer, I felt like a weight was lifted from my face and I knew I had to tell you all about it, even if it took more characters than most of you have the patience to read. Hope you give them a try and tell me what you think. I’m telling you, they’re a must try!
