Big City Beauty’s End of the Year Giveaway
Happy BCB Eco-Friday my pretties! How neat is it that both Christmas Day and New Years Day fall on an Eco-Friday!?! 
Well I have some very exciting eco-news to share with you all before I get started with the giveaway. I am extremely excited to announce that I have officially started working for my absolute favorite eco-beauty line: Caudalie!!! Yup, yours truly will be doing facials with a true leader of natural and organic skin care at the world-renowned Plaza Hotel in NYC come 2010.
During my recent trainings with Caudalie, I fell even more in love with the company and their philosophy. In 1993, a young, beautiful couple was giving a tour of their vineyard to Professor Vercauteren, a professor of the Pharmacy Faculty of Bordeaux. On this tour, the professor had asked the couple what they did with the unused grape seeds from their harvest and proceeded to explain to them how these seeds contained polyphenols, the most powerful antioxidant in the plant world. With the professor’s anti-aging research, and Mathilde and Bertrand Thomas’ passion for skin care and their vineyard, Caudalie was born.
What most people don’t know about Caudalie is that they were the first company to discover and use stabilized polyphenols in cosmetics. In addition to this groundbreaking patent, Caudalie also has patents on Resveratrol (which stimulates cellular renewal) and Viniferine (which promotes radiance and treats dark spots). Another fascinating fact about the company is that they were at the forefront of eco-beauty before it became what it is today. Their products are free of parabens, phenoxyethanol, mineral oil, artificial colorings or sodium laureth sulfate. In addition, no ingredients of animal origin are used, products are not tested on animals and a maximum of natural active ingredients can be found in all of their products.
With their devotion to skin care research and the environment, Caudalie has not only grown to be my favorite eco-beauty line, but a part of my life now as well.
So without further ado, I would love to present to you the THREE prizes I have to offer for Big City Beauty’s End of the Year Giveaway:
First Place
Caudalie Vinotherapie Spa in a Box
Second Place
Caudalie Fleur de Vigne Fresh Energizing Fragrance
Third Place
Caudalie Beauty from the Vine Sample Pack
