Full list of ingredients :
1. What are serums for?
Applying a serum before your day and night creams allows their effectiveness to be boosted. Caudalie serums are highly concentrated in active ingredients and can be used for daily use, morning and evening. Their lightweight textures absorb quickly into the skin, allowing the actives to penetrate effectively. For visible results and optimal skincare performance, a serum is an essential step.2. Is the Instant Firming Serum suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin?
Yes, the Instant Firming Serum is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Its formula is tested under dermatological supervision and is non-comedogenic. Its anti-ageing active ingredient, vine resveratrol, is an alternative to retinol without its side effects.3. Is Instant Firming Serum suitable for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding?
Yes, the Instant Firming Serum is suitable for pregnant and breastfeeding women. Its anti-ageing active ingredient, vine resveratrol, is an alternative to retinol without its contraindications.4. Who is the Instant Firming Serum for?
The Instant Firming Serum is suitable for anyone looking for an anti-ageing serum that targets wrinkles, loss of firmness and lifts facial contours.5. What is a retinol alternative?
The Instant Firming Serum is a retinol alternative: it offers 3 times more firming action while being non-irritating. It is therefore suitable for sensitive skin or for those who do not tolerate retinol well.6. What are the active ingredients in the Instant Firming Serum and how do they work?
The Instant Firming Serum concentrates Caudalie's patented vine science (Caudalie x Harvard patent no. 1555116): vine resveratrol, derived from vine shoots and produced in France, stimulates collagen and elastin and activates sirtuins, the longevity proteins (sirtuin activation x128), alongside 2 hyaluronic acids. It is combined with Pro-Collagen Grape Multi-Peptides (500 peptides from grapeseed), making it the most active ingredient-concentrated product in the range.7. Is it true that the Instant Firming Serum is 3 times more firming than retinol?
Yes. Vine resveratrol, at the heart of the Instant Firming Serum, is the retinol alternative developed by Caudalie. Combined with Pro-Collagen Grape Multi-Peptides, it stimulates collagen production 3 times more than retinol, without its side effects. It can be used with sun exposure and is suitable for sensitive skin.8. How long does it take to see results from the Instant Firming Serum?
The Instant Firming Serum acts from the first application on skin firmness and facial contours. After 56 days of morning and evening use, the clinical study showed 10 years of firmness restored; 100% of volunteers noticed firmer, younger-looking and plumper skin.9. Can the Instant Firming Serum be applied in the morning before sun exposure?
Yes, the Instant Firming Serum can be used morning and evening and does not make the skin photosensitive: its anti-ageing active ingredient, vine resveratrol, does not have the side effects of retinol. Its formula is tested under dermatological supervision and is suitable for sensitive skin. As with any anti-ageing routine, apply sun protection in the morning.10. Where does the Instant Firming Serum fit into my routine?
Apply the Instant Firming Serum morning and evening to clean skin, on the face, neck and décolleté, before your cream. It is the first skincare step after cleansing and applying a lotion. In the morning, finish your routine with sun protection.

Visible Results!
At 45, I was looking for something to help with loss of elasticity, and this serum completely delivered. It is incredibly lightweight, absorbs instantly, and gives an immediate plumping and hydrating boost. After a few weeks of daily use, my skin feels noticeably firmer, and my fine lines are softened. I love that it’s a clean, non-irritating alternative to retinol that sits beautifully under makeup. Highly recommend!

Giving nature a helping hand.
The picture with my glasses is 2 weeks before switching from this serum from the Vinoperfect Serum, so my skin was already in good condition from over 12 months of using Caudalie! I was fortunate to be part of a small group to test the new formula early and I found it was much better suited for my ageing skin. I found that after using this twice daily for 2 weeks that my skin reduced in redness, the texture was becoming more even and skin had a natural healthy brightness, noticeably on my cheeks and forehead where I had been concentrating on massaging the serum in. My skin was plumper and more hydrated and felt less tight around my nose and cheeks. I have just invested in a full size and am looking forward to the difference at the end of using the entire product! I would definitely recommend as part of a great skincare routine. Products I use in my routine as a 44 year old is: Caudalie Foam Cleanser This Serum Resveratol Firming Cashmere Day Cream Vinoperfect Glycolic Night Cream

Best serum for sensitive skin!
This is my go-to product for my skin, which reacts to retinol, but I still want something to minimize fine lines.

A New Favourite in My Skincare Routine
I’ve been using this new serum as part of my skincare routine and I love it! It feels lovely on the skin, absorbs well and leaves my skin feeling smooth, refreshed and beautifully hydrated. I already use the Resveratrol-Lift Firming Eye Gel Cream as part of my daily routine, which I absolutely love, so I was excited to see how the serum would complement it. Together, they leave my skin feeling beautifully cared for and hydrated. I definitely recommend giving it a try if you’re looking to add a hydrating serum to your skincare routine.
