We all know that the sea is brimming with healthy nutrients. But what if you could harness some of its amazing life force within your beauty routine? Well, you can…and it goes by the name of Repêchage.

Repêchage is a beauty line that has been committed to bringing the pure health benefits of seaweed to skincare for over 35 years. Used in the finest spas worldwide, no less it’s a family-owned business founded by Lydia Sarfati and her husband David. Passionate about helping people like you and I experience beautiful skin, they do this through products that use the finest sustainably harvested seaweeds combined with the most effective ingredients the earth has to offer.

Regular readers will know that I am turning 40 this year (eek!). So as my skin starts to age evermore, I was keen to see what the caviar of the sea could do for me.

Introducing Vita Cura®

I was sent the Vita Cura® B3 Serum Complex (£105) and Vita Cura® B3 Elixir Complex (£135) from the Vita Cura® Gold range to try.

Positioned as the next generation in best-selling antiaging products and promising laboratory-tested results you can see and feel, the range is underpinned by the science of seaweed. Containing a rich blend of vitamins, minerals, trace elements, amino acids and the anti-oxidants that seaweed boasts, it makes it the ideal main ingredient for detoxifying, oxygenating, re-balancing, hydrating, anti-aging and renewing benefits.

A beauty powerhouse

The key – as in with all beauty products worth their salt – is in the ingredients. Expect 12 vitamins including B12, C, E, K and Beta Carotene, 18 amino acids, and 42 trace elements all from natural sources.

Vitamin B3 – which I don’t think has ever featured in any skincare product I’ve tried before – works to brighten the appearance of skin while promoting hydration and improving the overall look of skin. Whilst Adenosine – a protein – plays a crucial role in reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines that appear on our skin as we age.

All of this is underpinned by Sodium Hyaluronate – a natural moisturizing polysaccharide present in the skin known to hold 100 times its weight in water; and Glucose which can draw moisture from the environment and release it on your skin.

My experience of the Repêchage Vita Cura® Gold range

Within a day of using both the products day and night, my skin was already starting to look more youthful, smoother, better hydrated and firmer.

But the biggest difference I noticed? My skin was positively glowing with a level of radiance I’m not sure I’ve ever seen in my skin even in its prime! The glow these products bestow on you is irrefutable. And although the very best of skincare may seem like a big claim, I would have to say that having experienced it for myself, I would very much agree that it is.

Both the products are really lovely and lightweight to apply. Meanwhile, the gorgeously sleek packaging makes it feel like such a special beauty ritual morning and night. They take pride of place on my dressing table and are my little bit of spa heaven at the beginning and end of every day. That’s no matter how many curveballs mum life throws me!

I have to admit, prior to my experience of Repêchage’s Vita Cura® Gold range I would never have thought to have sought out beauty products with seaweed. But to say that I am now fully sold on the science of seaweed is a serious understatement!

***GIVEAWAY***

I am really excited to share that Repêchage will be giving away a Vita Cura® B3 Serum Complex and Vita Cura® B3 Elixir Complex worth a total of £240 to one lucky reader.

  1. I must admit I have never been great with moisturising! I have only recently started to after my friend won a facial and took me with her. the beauty therapist told me I had very dry skin, so now I have been taking more care.

  2. I had never heard of the Repêchage before. I have really sensitive skin, so all I use is water and Child’s Farm moisturiser.

  3. As I’m heading closer to 40 than 30 I need to start thinking more about the products I’m choosing to put on my skin. This sounds like some fab products

  4. I need this in my life. I’m nearly 40 so need to really start getting a set skin care product that works for me x
