French connection

French skincare brand Caudalie is putting down roots in Hong Kong, opening its first standalone store next month on Central's Gough Street. The two-storey space will house the brand's vino-therapy skincare collection - developed with founder Mathilde Thomas' family vineyard in Bordeaux - and treatment areas for nail, face and body services. Must-have products include the newly launched Premier Cru anti-ageing cream and eye cream (above).
