The Beauty Blog | Review: Vinoperfect Radiance Facial at Caudalie Spa
The French brand's vinotherapie makes its way to Hong Kong by way of Bordeaux.
Located at the back of the boutique, the spa is divided between a ground-floor area for quick treatments and sparties, and a first-floor area with two spacious treatment rooms. The brand’s grape-inspired ethos is evident in the signature wallpaper and a decorative vine stalks, but the overall look is clean and refined.
I tried the Vinoperfect Radiance Facial, designed to brighten, even and hydrate the skin. The treatment got off to a great start, thanks to the adjustable bed and wonderful scent of the products (not to mention the candle flickering in the corner). After a round of cleansing, including a quick swipe of the Clarisonic brush, the therapist performed rather thorough extractions followed by a gentle massage using warm and cool basalt stones – inspired by the stones placed at the base of the grapevines to regulate temperature, or so I was told. I was also treated to a soothing hand and arm massage while the Vinoperfect Enzymatic Peel Mask worked on further clearing and tightening my pores.
The treatment finished with the Vinoperfect Radiance Serum, and I was left with skin that was noticeably plumper and - at least for a few hours - actually glowing. I was also given a skin evaluation and product samples to try at home.
