The Iconic Dark Spot Serum That Sells Every 15 Seconds
Created in partnership with CAUDALIE
The Background
It’s not every day a skincare product earns cult status and keeps it, but Caudalie’s Vinoperfect Radiance Serum has done exactly that. Two decades since it first launched, the dark spot-correcting formula still flies off shelves around the world, with a bottle sold every 15 seconds*.
Loved for its gentle approach to tackling pigmentation – including sun spots, acne scars and melasma – this clever serum continues to be one of the best options for achieving a more even and radiant complexion.
How It Works
At the heart of the formula is Viniferine™, a patented ingredient derived from vine sap that’s clinically proven to be 62 times more effective than vitamin C at brightening the skin.** The results speak for themselves – in clinical studies, the serum reduced the appearance of dark spots by 63% after just one bottle, rising to 81% on darker skin tones.***
You’ll also find olive squalane on the ingredients list, as well as green rape which promotes better radiance. Expect a milky, soft serum that’s never sticky or tacky – it absorbs fast and can also double up as a hydrating primer.
Who Benefits
Now tested on both fair and dark skin, anyone can use it, including men and those who suffer with sensitivities. Likewise, the serum has been deemed safe for those pregnant or breastfeeding, while the oil-free formula means it won’t clog up your pores or affect existing breakouts. Better still, there are zero parabens, sulfates or phthalates, so you needn’t worry about any reactions.
The Best Way To Amplify Results
You only need a few drops patted onto your face, neck and chest post-cleanse – a little goes a long way. Use it morning and night for the best results or you can try pairing it with some of the products from the rest of the range (below) to further strengthen and firm skin…
Instant Brightening Moisturiser
With a pearlescent formula, this silky cream boosts skin’s glow and luminosity immediately, while improving bounce and texture. Just like the serum, it absorbs fast and quickly hydrates with no tacky feel. It’s available as a refill, too.
Available here.
Dark Spot Correcting Glycolic Night Cream
Think of this as your overnight skin reset. With glycolic acid, papaya enzyme and Viniferine™, it works like a gentle peel to reveal brighter skin by morning. The new formula is 97% natural, refillable and lighter in texture than before.
Available here.
Dark Circle Brightening Eye Cream
Dark circles are no match for this eye cream. With caffeine, niacinamide and Viniferine™, it de-puffs and brightens – and the cooling ceramic applicator is a bonus.
Available here.
Glycolic Peel Mask
In just ten minutes, this gentle treatment helps to smooth and brighten dull skin. It’s a great option before an event or whenever your skin needs a boost.

Micropeel Foam Cleanser
The latest addition to the line-up, this cleanser uses mandelic acid to dissolve dead skin cells without stripping your complexion. It’s gentle, effective and a great way to kickstart your brightening routine.
