Get a Boozy Fix With Caudelie

Lots of us have sworn off the demon drink for January. Not me, I'd never be so foolish to embark on an enterprise I know I couldn't see through. And that's why I had 90 wines last weekend, and spent all of Sunday in bed, dying. Whaaayhey!

But if you really, really need yer grape-related fix yet won't pop a cork, consider Caudelie. A French Vinotherapy brand (they may as well go the whole hog and call it boozeotherapy, eh?), they make gorgeous skin and bodycare products, and they're a recent addition to the Brown Thomas Dublin beauty hall too.

One of the products I like the most is the Crushed Cabernet Scrub, which might be made out of the Forbidden Wine, but which has wonderous slimming properties too. Oh yes! No word of a lie boss, "crushed grape-seeds are mixed with brown sugar, pure Gironde honey, and 6 organic essential oils. This scrub smoothes out cellulite and has a draining effect, leaving skin wonderfully smooth and nourished", confirms the horses mouth.
