During the holiday season
everyone is looking for a fun way to spend time with friends and family. Unfortunately the throngs of tourists that
descend upon Manhattan make it near impossible to enjoy the parks, department
store windows, or even a stroll down the sidewalk.
For a fun alternative that
combines beauty + booze, we have the solution: Cauldalie. This adorable new beauty boutique in
the West Village is where nature meets science and glamour. The brand was founded by Mathilde Thomas in Bordeaux (France), at the heart of the vineyards on the
family estate. She saw the
untapped opportunity in vines and grapes, and converted her vision into a
luxurious line of potions and lotions.
If you’ve got
an hour to kill, trek down to the sexy shoppe to check out their first ever
brick and mortar location. The
interior is designed in rich woods and marble that accentuate the products that
celebrate Mathilde’s vision. (note: you may want to redecorate your
apartment afterwards).
While there we
had the chance to make a customized scrub with the store’s resident vinotherapist,
Selina Malik. We mixed grape-seeds, brown sugar and
Gironde honey plus organic essential oils to concoct the perfect exfoliating
blend. As an added bonus, that
afternoon we opened up the scrub and let the zen-like aroma circulate
throughout our office. 
Stop in to
sample the sumptuous selection of creams and serums. We recommend:
This milky serum creates a
radiant complexion, corrects dark spots and prevents them from reappearing. the
complexion is evened out and more radiant. All skin types. Oil-free formula.
Non-photosensitizing, Non-comedogenic.
Apply morning and evening, to the face, neck and décolleté, before your
usual moisturizer. May also be used before your sunscreen for a flawless tan.
Inspired by
Queen Isabelle of Hungary’s elixir of youth, this treatment smooths away fine
lines, tightens pores and gives the complexion an instant boost of radiance.
Beloved by beauty addicts, celebrities and make-up artists alike.
This multi-use miracle oil
is ideal for hair, nails, bath, and massages. Divine Oil is a unique alchemy of
four extremely fine and evanescent vegetable oils (60 percent of the formula).
