Caudalie Vinosource-Hydra S.O.S. Intense Moisturizing Cream 15 ml Mini Review

Ingredients:

aqua/water/eau, glycerin*, squalane*, ethylhexyl cocoate*, ethylhexyl palmitate*, cetearyl alcohol*, vitis vinifera (grape) fruit water*, borago officinalis seed oil*, potassium cetyl phosphate, coco-caprylate/caprate*, cetearyl wheat straw glycosides*, caprylic/capric triglyceride*, palmitoyl grape seed extract*, vitis vinifera (grape) juice*, crithmum maritimum extract*, sodium carboxymethyl beta-glucan, sodium hyaluronate, oleyl alcohol*, cetearyl glucoside*, hydrogenated olive oil stearyl esters*, parfum (fragrance), tocopheryl acetate*, carbomer, caprylyl glycol, hydrogenated vegetable oil*, helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil*, citric acid*, sodium hydroxide, tocopherol*, acrylates/c10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate (235/001)


I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Ingredients thought to be good and useful for skin I mark green.  Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...



Thoughts:

Broke me out slightly but consistently during the three week test period (breakouts stopped when stopped using) which leads to:

Lots of comedogenic ingredients that seem to be trigger at least to my oily-combination skin

Full size 50 ml comes in a jar if you are against jars



Light scent, pleasant to me

Soft cream, excellent consistency, not too oily or too thick but still protecting, leaves skin soft and smooth, not sticky

Feels moisturizing (but I would not call it S.O.S. Cream - for dry skin probably nice daily cream), nice combination of moisture and hydration

Cute pink packaging (pink is my weakness after all)

Caudalie is vegan and uses mostly natural derived ingredients if you are into these things



* I do have a soft spot for Caudalie products, for some reason. I guess I like their aesthetics! What I have tried their formulas are very nice and it almost seems like the scents are not as strong as few years ago. Or I have lost my sense of smell because I have smelled too many cosmetics products.

For my oily-combination skin I have loved Caudalie's Moisturizing Sorbet and Vinopure Purifying Gel Cleanser.



Price: 

25-35 € / 50 ml full size product

Bought from: 

Got from Lookfantastic Advent Calendar

Buy again? 

No.

Worth the money? 

To me no, because Caudalie Vinosource-Hydra S.O.S. Intense Moisturizing Cream broke me out, but otherwise it was very pleasant rich cream that is not too rich and did what it was supposed to do: moisturized nicely and worked with my other products. For dry skin probably excellent, but for irritated dry skin I would search something else.
