Caudalie Premier Cru Anti-Aging Cream Moisturiser
Works for
Anti-agingAdenosine, Palmitoyl grapevine shoot extract + 1 moreWorks well
“What it is: A powerful moisturizer that targets visible signs of aging like wrinkles, dark spots, and loss of volume.”
This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because it contains adenosine.
Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed to improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can “erase” wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.
MoisturizingGlycerin, Hydrogenated ethylhexyl olivate + 13 moreWorks
“What it is: A powerful moisturizer that targets visible signs of aging like wrinkles, dark spots, and loss of volume.”
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
glycerin, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: butyrospermum parkii butter extract, caprylic/capric triglyceride.

“What it is: A powerful moisturizer that targets visible signs of aging like wrinkles, dark spots, and loss of volume.”
This product contains ingredients (palmitoyl grapevine shoot extract) that could help reduce hyperpigmentation (for example, post-acne marks or age spots) in theory, but there is not enough evidence that they actually work.
Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Palmitoyl grapevine shoot extract, Vitis vinifera seed oil + 2 moreMay help
This product contains antioxidants (palmitoyl grapevine shoot extract) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is not enough evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin though.
