I’m one of those people known to go on a regular “beauty binge”. Yes, I have been known to spend loads of money on Aromatherapy Associates, Elemis, Yes To, Mama Mio, Morrocan Oil (amazing!) and MAC make up (to mention just a few of my regular beauty favourites).
This is all alongside the many dineros and time that I spend on having my face and eyebrows threaded, arms, legs & bikini waxed, the 5 hour permanent hair straightening with Yuko, and the laser IPL treatment 8 months ago. Oh, and did I mention the gym membership and the personal trainer?
So, you can only imagine how delighted I was when my lovely friend Marge gave me a little bottle of “Huile Divine” by Caudalie. To be entirely honest, I had bought and used Caudalie before – but had not been very impressed, so I had returned to Elemis – but I must say, this little bottle of Huile Divine is like a little bottle of magic potion – like a dream in a bottle!
First off – I’m a big fan of beauty oils. Bio Oil is an absolute must for me after every gym session and I’ve just finished a bottle of Elemis Cellutox body oil (smells great too!). So coming to this specific new oil – Huile Divine by Caudalie – it’s body oil heaven!
The Caudalie Divine Oil is apparently made of 4 different oils – grape oil (obviously, being what Caudalie is all about), extra virgin argan oil, extra virgin hibiscus oil and sesame oil.
The smell? Very sweet at first, but fades to leave a lovely dreamy after-smell, I think mostly hisbiscus? And do not be put off by the word “oil” – this is a dry oil that absorbs super fast without a trace, don’t fear the oil. It’s simply…divine?
