My favourite products from Caudalie Sun Care line are:
Anti-wrinkle Face Suncare SPF50 protection and skincare rolled into one. I love multi-tasking products and Caudalie has nailed the SPF game with this light and creamy formula that utilizes organic products like grape water that nourish and protect the skin while saving the environment as well. Built-in skincare products retain the youthful look of your skin while offering sun protection. SPF for the face is non-sticky, doesn’t leave a white cast and it’s safe for skin and nature thanks to its non-toxic, non-nano formula. I also love the smell and the packaging of the line a lot.
Suncare Oil SPF30 is ideal for those who can’t get enough of that tan. The grape oil rich formula ensures maximum UV protection while providing a natural radiance boost. The texture feels so luxurious and is not greasy at all. It leaves nice flattering shine on the body. I would recommend to use it if you want to look great in the bikini as it elongating legs and enhancing the decolletage. It has UVA/UVB filters. On holiday, I was applying this to my legs long after the sun went down!
If you want to make that tan last long Caudalie Tan Prolonging After-Sun Lotion is your best bet. This coconut oil, grape water, and aloe infused formula will transport you to your tropical vacation every time. It cools skin and helps with repairs on damages.

Clean Skin with Patyka DETOX CHARCOAL MASK
The DETOX Charcoal mask from Patyka Paris is musk that surprised me and it was a positive surprise. I tried a multiple amount of charcoal masks and they all had thick texture, dried my skin and smelled rather not welcoming 🙂 This product is completely different. It has a nice, pleasant smell, contains charcoal, green clay and algae extract. Texture is more clay, gel, light and creamy more than thick. It can be left on a skin a bit longer without drying the skin. After rising the mask my skin is purified, glowing and soft. Most of impurities are gone. As all Patyka products is it an organic certified mask, so you can stay assured that quality is amazing.
