Review | Caudalie Beauty Elixir

 
 
Over the past year, Beauty Elixirs have been one of the main focuses of beauty bloggers. They are said to be this miracle product that is going to leave you with perfect glowing skin, and it all started with Caudalie Beauty Elixir.
 
I have never been too swayed by the hype that surrounds them, but after reading countless good reviews of the Caudalie Beauty Elixir, I decided to bite the bullet and purchase the 30ml bottle from Space NK. 
For what it is, it is quite an expensive product, but if it is going to do something, I don't mind paying. I would call Caudalie quite a high end brand anyway. I have the 30ml bottle which cost me £11. (£28.80 per 100ml- 29p per ml).
 
It contains grape, rosemary and peppermint oil. It is said to 'Smooth away fine lines, tighten pores, and give your complexion a boost of radiance. It also states it will help fight acne. (A statement that I would say is a little steep). When spritzed on the face, it leaves your skin incredibly calm and cool. It also smells delicious.
I use this in the morning after I have cleansed my face (with Neutragena Pink Grapefruit Cream Wash), let it dry then apply a moisturiser (Neutragena Pink Grapefruit Oil Free Moisturiser).
I feel like it gives my dull, early morning skin the boost of radiance it so desperately needs.
 
I wouldn't say it has miraculously improved the condition of my skin, as essentially it is just a water containing minerals. But in conjunction with other products I am currently using- my skin has never been in such good condition. For the first time ever this week, I have felt completely comfortable wearing absolutely so foundation and just my Maybelline BB Cream (which has a very light coverage)!
 
Overall I will defiantly be repurchasing the Caudalie Beauty Elixir. It is available to purchase from FeelUnique and Space.NK.
 
What are your thoughts? Have you ever tried it?
