Sensitivity, dryness or pregnancy are a few reasons that beauty consumers opt for retinol alternatives and Caudalie's Resveratrol-Lift skincare addresses the growing demand for gentle, non-irritating skincare with firming benefits. Caudalie's Resveratrol-Lift Ultimate Firming Set pairs a serum, a deeply hydrating cream and a smoothing and depuffing eye gel cream.
The full-size Instant Firming Serum in the set is a standout that boasts three times the efficacy of retinol for firming and lifting. As such, this retinol alternative can be safely used in the daytime without SPF, and it suits others who might otherwise avoid retinol.
In 2024, the French brand relaunched its Resveratrol-Lift skincare range in South East Asia to introduce a plant-derived vegan collagen. Additionally, the product features a plant-based collagen booster derived from sustainably harvested mahogany bark.
