Caudalie Beauty Elixir. Lately it has been hot in Vancouver. Okay, not “I can’t breathe, the humidex is off the charts”, kind of hot, but very warm for our coast. I look outside and there’s an amazing breeze coming off the ocean, but alas that doesn’t seem to translate inside my condo. You need to understand that many of us who live in the city have floor to ceiling windows that don’t open all the way and air conditioning is still a rarity. So first thing in the morning the blinds get drawn as we wait for the sun to heat up our fishbowl apartments.
I’m certainly not complaining since I really do love the warmth, but I find that my skin isn’t always as happy as the rest of me. We all know that it’s always crucial to stay well hydrated. There are so many reasons to drink water, it can help with weight loss and digestive issues and even boost your energy. Water is also an essential component for healthy looking skin. So not only do I make an effort to increase my water intake, but it’s in times like this that I turn to two of my favourite hydrating products.
Caudalie Beauty Elixir is an amazing hydrating spray. While I use it all year round, in the summer I keep my bottle in the fridge. With it’s cool peppermint effect on my skin, it always feels fantastic. I use it morning and night and I notice a huge difference if I miss a few days. It tightens and brightens my skin, and as a bonus, it is also great for setting my makeup.
When it’s especially hot, I love to spray Evian mineral water on my face and body. It’s like a cool mist that covers your skin creating a barrier between you and the heat, bringing your temperature levels down immediately. It’s also a refreshing touch if I’m not able to jump into the shower.
I’d love to pick up some more tips. What do you do to break the heat in these hot summer months?
Have you ever tried Caudalie Beauty Elixir? Do you love it?

I thinK that Evian is the best hydrating spray for the money. I love it, especially when traveling.

Yes! It’s such a lifesaver when travelling!

Hydrating is so important in the heat. I find I lose salts and Gatorade (which contains salts) replenishes me better than anything else.
Yeah, when I was dancing lots of my friends used Gatorade. I never liked the taste but the salt is necessary!

One thing i do is drinking tones of water everyday. I really like to try this Evian hydrating water.

I love the bubbles in it. Some of the other waters are too carbonated if that makes sense…

Thanks for sharing, I have seen that Evian spray and wondered about it, I will have to try some now 🙂
That Evian spray is pretty awesome especially if you are out and about!

OMG, ya!! Hydration is so important!! I drink so much water in a day and cuz of my dry skin, I know how important good moisturizing skin care is!! Caudalie has great products just for that!

Oh please let me know! I would love to know what you think.

Those are all super fantastic! They also have a caudalie spray in the same container as the evian which is a.maz.ing. And to make the pellegrino even more fun (if possible) when you need water but want something a little more flavorful I will add crystal light to it. The strawberry as well as the something-lemonade one are delightful 🙂
Oh I totally add stuff to my water, a spritz or lemon or a touch of peppermint…. my fave!
xo
I swear, Caudalie can do no wrong! :] I still have not tried the Evian spray but now you’re making me want it! Haha! It would be perfect for the summer heat!
I love Caudalie and you totally have to try the spray it feels so awesome!
xo
I also use the Claudalie Beauty Elixir but I’ve never thought to leave it in the fridge! That is such a great idea and sounds so refreshing!! Going to definitely try that out!

It’s really humid and hot where I live so I’ve always found myself obsessively spraying my face with mists to try and cool down. I’ve tried and loved the Evian mist and I’ve also really enjoyed the facial mists from Vichy and Avene! I’ll definitely have to try out Caudalie’s Beauty Elixir – I’ve heard way too many good things about it 🙂

Yes, you’re right they have awesome sprays as well, I just happened to have a bottle of Evian so it made the cut!
xo
Thanks, for the tips I never knew Evian made a hydrating mist.
Best,

Oh they do and it’s rather fabulous!

Putting Caudalie in the fridge is such a great idea to get a refreshing spritz during hot days.
I’ve just opened up an online French skincare boutique where I stock many cult favorites as well as products that are difficult to purchase outside of France!
I’d love if you came and had a look around. If you can’t find whta you’re finding, I also take private requests.
