What a fantastic post from the Caudalie team. So we thought we would share this with you. 🌞😎

Don't forget our Caudalie skincare event this Wednesday (2nd August) from 10am-4pm. To take advantage of this free event please book an appointment with our team over the phone, or message us directly.

UVA, UVB RAYS... WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE? 🧐

There are 2 types of ultraviolet rays that reach our skin:

1️⃣ UVA rays, which represent 95% of the sun’s rays and are what make your skin age faster
2️⃣ UVB rays: they don’t pe*****te the skin as much as UVAs but still have a really powerful effect. These are the ones that cause sunburn and pigmentation problems

What do we suggest? Use antioxidant suncare products for full action against UVAs and UVBs ✅

Our Vinosun Protect sun creams contain a powerful, patented antioxidant cocktail with Polyphenols, Spruce and Vitamin E. They capture free radicals and neutralise them before they cause damage to your body, meaning your cell structure doesn’t get damaged.

Our Vinosun Protect High Protection Cream SPF50 is the exact opposite of sun creams you hate using!

Why should you use it?

✅ It’s not greasy or sticky: it’s absorbed fast and leaves your skin moisturised

✅ It doesn't leave a white cast: its cream texture is invisible once you have spread it over your skin

✅ It doesn't pill under make-up: you can apply it with no worries after your moisturiser

✅ It doesn't cause acne: its formula is clean and non-comedogenic

✅ It suits adults as well as children over 3: now you don't need to cart a tonne of sun creams around with you in your beach bag
